Comparison of In Situ and Postsynthetic Formation of MOF-Carbon Composites as Electrocatalysts for the Alkaline Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) by Linda Sondermann, Laura Maria Voggenauer, Annette Vollrath, Till Strothmann, Christoph Janiak

“…The best material Ni₅Fe-CNT was synthesized in situ and achieved an overpotential (<i>η</i>) of 301 mV (RuO₂ <i>η</i> = 354 mV), a Tafel slope (<i>b</i>) of 58 mV/dec (RuO₂ <i>b</i> = 91 mV/dec), a charge transfer resistance (R_ct) of 7 Ω (RuO₂ R_ct = 39 Ω), and a faradaic efficiency (FE) of 95% (RuO₂ FE = 91%). Structural changes in the materials could be seen through a stability test in the alkaline electrolyte, and chronopotentiometry over 12 h showed that the derived electrocatalysts and RuO₂ have good stability.…”

Fluvial terrace formation in a mountainous area (2): influence of eustatism, tectonics and altitudinal distribution of watersheds based on an allostratigraphic study (Albania) by Mugnier, Jean-Louis, Guzmán, Oswaldo, Vassallo, Riccardo,  Matraku, Kristina, Jouanne, François

“…This variety is controlled by the respective amount of the three parameters: lateral erosion, aggradation and difference between incision and aggradation.Active faults offset the paleoriver profiles at throw rates locally greater than 1 mm·yr-1 and the tectonic uplift influences the long term incision: Nested strath terraces or nested filled terraces with substratum risers occur in zones of high uplift rate (greater than 0.4 mm·yr-1), superposed units and nested fill terraces with hidden substratum risers occur in the weakly uplifted zones of the intra-mountainous graben-like structures.Most of the Albanian terraces are located above straths (nearly flat erosional surfaces) linked to phases of lateral beveling. …”
