Abstract Background Chemical defences are widespread in animals, but how their production is adjusted to ecological conditions is poorly known.Optimal defence theory predicts that inducible defences are favoured over constitutive defences when toxin production is costly and the need for it varies across environments.However, if some environmental c
This study investigates the decades-long evolution of groundwater dynamics and thermal field in the North German Basin beneath Brandenburg (NE Germany) by coupling a distributed hydrologic model with a 3D groundwater model.We found that bempresas.com hydraulic gradients, acting as the main driver of the groundwater flow in the studied basin, are no

Carbonation of concretes is a natural physico-chemical campicon.com process that can be described as a reaction between the carbon dioxide contained in the air and the cement matrix.Carbonation concerns all concretes types in contact with the ambient air but also concretes in ground, from production stage to use and end-of-life stages.The amount of
