This article reports on a bioanalytical sensor device that hosts three different transducer principles: impedance spectroscopy, quartz-crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring, and the thermal-current-based heat-transfer method. These principles utilize a single chip, allowing one to perform either microbalance and heat transfer measurement...

Root hydraulic properties are key physiological traits that determine the capacity of root systems to take up water, at a specific evaporative demand. They can strongly vary among species, cultivars or even within the same genotype, but a systematic analysis of their variation across plant functional types (PFTs) is still missing. Here, we reviewed...

The lithological and stratigraphical heterogeneity of coastal aquifers has a great influence on saltwater intrusion (SI). This makes it difficult to predict SI pathways and their persistence in time. In this context, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and induced polarization (IP) methods are receiving increasing attention regarding the discri...
Defected and amine-loaded zirconium-based metal–organic frameworks (MOF) UiO-66(Zr) have been characterized and chemically assessed in a condensation reaction of acetone and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde. The present work focuses primarily on the production of the aldol adduct as the main product while minimizing the formation of the enone adduct as a side p...
Though traditional pedotransfer functions (PTFs) commonly meet the requirements for predicting soil hydraulic properties, their oversimplified models and the multicollinearity associated with limited soil input features compromise the accurate representation of the relationships between structure and function of soil pore space. To address these ch...
