Contributions of microbial biofilms to ecosystem processes in stream mesocosms
Article Abstract:
Research points out that the physical and chemical microhabitat is changed by the microbial biofilms resulting in the creation of ecosystem processes in long stream mesocosoms. Results reveal that biofilm growth increases hydrodynamic transient storage by 300% and suspended particle retention by 120%.

It's a knockout
Article Abstract:
During collisions between nuclei, protons and neutrons might be pushed out of the nucleus. Demonstration on the two-proton knockout is illustrated, and opening of a new route for the creation of neutron-rich systems for study is highlighted.
