New experimental data for production of (7)Be and (22,24)Na in deuteron irradiation of (nat)Mg and Al up to 50 MeV are presented. The induced activity, measured with HPGe spectroscopy, allows us to determine excitation functions of (nat)Mg(d,x) and (27)Al(d,x) reactions

Evaluating conflicting theories about the influence of mountains on carbon dioxide cycling and climate requires understanding weathering fluxes from tectonically uplifting landscapes. The lack of soil production and weathering rate measurements in Earth's most rapidly uplifting mountains has made it

The use of the terphenyl substituent -C(6)H(3)-2,6-Mes(2) (abbreviated Ar) has permitted the synthesis of several new low-coordinate beryllium compounds. Reaction of 1 equiv of LiAr with BeCl(2)(OEt(2))(2) or BeBr(2)(OEt(2))(2) (1) gives the monomeric complexes ArBeX(OEt(2)) (X = Cl (2); Br
