Understanding the fundamental relationships between river flow, water exchange, and nutrient cycling can inform ecosystem effects of river regulation.

IDREAM researchers have discovered the chemical processes that underpin gibbsite solubility in sodium hydroxide, including sodium nitrate and sodium nitrite interactions.

Crystal deformation offers a novel design paradigm for photoactive materials.

Two different nickelate phases spontaneously form during oxygen-plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy deposition.

Variability in field measurement conditions likely does not impact estimates of an important flux in the global carbon cycle.
