Emission testing for Illinois vehicles:Even though emission testing isn’t mandatory for vehicle registration in Prairie State, vehicles should be the object of regular testing. Therefore, make sure to check if your motorcar is or is not due for an emission test. ...
Particular attention should be given to the assessment of induced seismicity risks in the crystalline basement rock underlying the injection interval since the majority of observed events have occurred below the reservoir9. In contrast to the reservoir rock, the stress state typical for crystalline rock...
We defined “persistent presence” as a township-range-section (TRS – 1 mi2 grid specified by Public Land Survey System) with ≥3 deer testing positive to CWD (Fig. 1). The BRT model predicted the probability of the persistent presence of CWD in each TRS within the test dataset with an...
John Hickenlooper moved this week to develop low-emission standards for cars and trucks similar to those already in place in California. The governor’s executive order would require the state to put the standards in place by 2025, which his office said would help them meet their greenhouse ...
Proton-induced X-ray emission spectrometry (PIXE) was used to determine the elemental compositions of the artifacts. Results are presented within the larger contexts of early material and technological transformation among the Illinois as European influence intensified....
Isolated means altered by the hand of man from the natural state. If an “isolated” composition or substance occurs in nature, it has been changed or removed from its original environment, or both. For example, a polynucleotide or a polypeptide naturally present in a living animal is not is...
The stimulated emission wavelength of the laser dye is modulated, i.e., shifted, by the adsorption of biomolecules on the DFB laser biosensor's surface. In one possible example of use of the sensor, the emission spectra are monitored to quantify the kinetic adsorption of a protein polymer ...
[2]. Furthermore, this study connects soil C emissions from land disturbance with SC-CO2, which allows the translation of soil C loss to a monetary value that can be potentially linked to soil health. This landscape-level analysis identifies emission hotspots from land cover change that can ...
