Esposito , Rhea M M 1 ; Horn , Shannon 2 ; McKnight , Diane 3 1 INSTAAR 2 3 The McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica are among the coldest and driest deserts on earth. Streams only flow for 6-10 weeks per year, but streams support perennial microbial mats dominated...

Role Of Desorption Kinetics In Unsaturated Heterogeneous Colloid-Facilitated Transport

Aug. 23, 2018

Dittrich , Timothy M 1 1 University of Colorado-Boulder Colloids are defined as any particle that is between 1 nanometer and 1 micrometer in diameter and can consist of mineral material and clays, microbes, and decayed plant matter. Due to their small size, transport of colloids through soil pores is...
