13. Fluxo do CO2 proveniente da respiração do solo em áreas de floresta nativa da Amazônia / CO2 flux from soil respiration in areas of native Amazon forest
Carbon dioxide is an important contributor to the greenhouse effect, and by extension, the global climate system as a whole; it is generated and consumed through the activities of terrestrial and aquatic microorganisms. Tropical forest CO2 fluxes at the soil-atmosphere interface depend on changes in the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of th

14. Interaction between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere in Amazonia: biogeophysical and biogeochemical connections / Interação entre ecossistemas terrestres e a atmosfera na Amazônia: conexões biogeofísicas e biogeoquímicas
The Amazon is considered by many one of the most important areas of the planet, including extensive areas of tropical forest. However, the forest has been dramatically modified by the deforestation changes in the CO2 concentration night also affect the forest structure. This work aims at better understand the biosphere-atmosphere interaction in the Amazonian

15. GREENHOUSE GASES STUDY IN AMAZONIA / "Estudos de gases de efeito estufa na Amazônia"
The Amazon plays an important role on the global carbon cycle, as changing as carbon storage, since Amazon Basin is the biggest area of tropical forest, around 50% of global. Naturals process, deforestation, and use land are CO2 sources. The Amazon forest is a significant source of N2O by soil process, and CH4 by anaerobic process like flooded areas, rice

16. Estrategias numericas para solução de modelos de não-equilibrio para absorção gasosa com reações quimicas complexas (regime estacionario e dinamico)
Gas absorption with chemical reactions is a very common industrial separation processo Until now the traditional equilibrium stage model have been the main tools to the design and unsteady state simulations of the gas-liquid contact equipment. The nonequilibrium model based on mass transfers fundamentais presents a more realistic description of the gas-liqui

17. Glucose metabolism and dimorphism in Mucor.
Mucor racemosus fermented glucose to ethanol, carbon dioxide, and glycerol. When this fungus was grown anaerobically in either the yeast or mycelial form, the catabolism of glucose was very similar. Yeast cells shifted to aerobic conditions maintained a high flux of glucose carbon through the glycolytic and pentose phosphate pathways. Mycelial cells grown ae

18. Penetration of Soybean Root Systems by Abscisic Acid Isomers 1
The penetration of soybean (Glycine max L. cv. Ransom) root systems by exogenously applied isomers of abscisic acid was monitored by measuring the concentration of the chemical in the xylem exudate of root systems exposed to a three bar hydrostatic pressure difference. The cis-trans isomer penetrated more readily than the trans-trans isomer; however, up to 6

19. Energy Requirements for the Transport of Methylthio-β-d-Galactoside by Escherichia coli: Measurement by Microcalorimetry and by Rates of Oxygen Consumption and Carbon Dioxide Production1
The energy cost for maintenance of gradients of methylthio-β-d-galactoside in Escherichia coli was evaluated. Information was also obtained concerning the energy flow associated with gradient establishment under some circumstances. Energy flow was evaluated from transport-induced changes in the rate of heat evolution, oxygen consumption, and carbon dioxide

20. Effects of Ultraviolet-B Irradiances on Soybean: II. INTERACTION BETWEEN ULTRAVIOLET-B AND PHOTOSYNTHETICALLY ACTIVE RADIATION ON NET PHOTOSYNTHESIS, DARK RESPIRATION, AND TRANSPIRATION 1
Soybean plants (cv. Hardee) were grown from seed under four ultraviolet-B radiation flux densities and four photosynthetically active radiation levels in a factorial design. Net photosynthesis, dark respiration, and transpiration were measured after 2 and 6 weeks of exposure. Effects of ultraviolet-B radiation were dependent upon photosynthetically active ra

21. Can increasing carbon dioxide cause climate change?
The realistic physical functioning of the greenhouse effect is reviewed, and the role of dynamic transport and water vapor is identified. Model errors and uncertainties are quantitatively compared with the forcing due to doubling CO2, and they are shown to be too large for reliable model evaluations of climate sensitivities. The possibility of directly

22. Independence of Hydrogen Ion Secretion and Transport of Other Electrolytes in Turtle Bladder*
The relationship between hydrogen ion secretion and the transport of other electrloytes was examined in the isolated urinary bladder of the water turtle. Symmetrical solutions which were free from exogenous carbon dioxide and bicarbonate bathed the two surfaces of the preparation, and the spontaneous electrical potential of the bladder was nullified by a vol

23. Regulation of net bicarbonate transport in rabbit cortical collecting tubule by peritubular pH, carbon dioxide tension, and bicarbonate concentration.
The effects of changes in peritubular pH, carbon dioxide tension (PCO2), and HCO3- concentration on net HCO3- transport was examined in in vitro perfused cortical collecting tubules (CCTs) from unpretreated New Zealand white rabbits. Lowering peritubular HCO3- concentration and pH by reciprocal replacement of HCO3- with Cl-, significantly stimulated net HCO3

24. Concurrent Measurements of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Exchange during Lightflecks in Maize (Zea mays L.).
Leaves of maize (Zea mays L.) were enclosed in a temperature-controlled cuvette under 35 Pa (350 [mu]bars) CO2 and 0.2 kPa (0.2%)O2 and exposed to short periods (1-30 s) of illumination (light-flecks). The rate and total amount of CO2 assimilated and O2 evolved were measured. The O2 evolution rate was taken as an indicator of the rate of photosynthetic noncy
