T1 - Towards the standardization of biochar analysis: the COST action TD1107 interlaboratory comparison JF - Journal of agricultural and food chemistry N2 - Biochar produced by pyrolysis of organic residues is increasingly used for soil amendment and many other applications. However, analytical methods for its physical and chemical characterization are yet far from being specifically adapted, optimized, and standardized. Therefore, COST Action TD1107 conducted an interlaboratory comparison in which 22 laboratories from 12 countries analyzed three different types of biochar for 38 physical–chemical parameters (macro- and microelements, heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, pH, electrical conductivity, and specific surface area) with their preferential methods. The data were evaluated in detail using professional interlaboratory testing software. Whereas intralaboratory repeatability was generally good or at least acceptable, interlaboratory reproducibility was mostly not (20% < mean reproducibility standard deviation < 460%). This paper contributes to better comparability of biochar data published already and provides recommendations to improve and harmonize specific methods for biochar analysis in the future.

T1 - Selective catalytic oxidation of C-H bonds with molecular oxygen JF - ChemCatChem N2 - Although catalytic reductions, cross-couplings, metathesis, and oxidation of C=C double bonds are well established, the corresponding catalytic hydroxylations of C–H bonds in alkanes, arenes, or benzylic (allylic) positions, particularly with O2, the cheapest, 'greenest', and most abundant oxidant, are severely lacking. Certainly, some promising examples in homogenous and heterogenous catalysis exist, as well as enzymes that can perform catalytic aerobic oxidations on various substrates, but these have never achieved an industrial-scale, owing to a low space-time-yield and poor stability. This review illustrates recent advances in aerobic oxidation catalysis by discussing selected examples, and aims to stimulate further exciting work in this area. Theoretical work on catalyst precursors, resting states, and elementary steps, as well as model reactions complemented by spectroscopic studies provide detailed insight into the molecular mechanisms of oxidation catalyses and pave the way for preparative applications. However, O2 also poses a safety hazard, especially when used for large scale reactions, therefore sophisticated methodologies have been developed to minimize these risks and to allow convenient transfer onto industrial scale.

T1 - Insights-into-the-Digital-Recovery-of-the-Scythica-Vindobonesia T2 - Collège de France – CNRS Centre de recherche d'histoire et civilisation de Byzance N2 - The Scythica Vindobonensia, the new fragments on Gothic incursions into Roman provinces in the Balkans in the middle of the third century AD that were revealed some years ago in a Greek palimpsest at the Austrian National Library in Vienna (ÖNB), are commonly considered as one of the most important additions of the last decades to the corpus of texts from classical Antiquity. Tere is a high degree of confdence among scholars in supposing that the fragments come from the lost work Scythica written in Greek by the third-century historian P. Herennius Dexippus (Δέξιππος) of Athens. The new fragments have hence also been called Dexippus Vindobonensis. In his Scythica, Dexippus recorded wars of the Romans with the Goths (and other tribes) whom he called Scythians. The work had been hitherto known only from excerpts and quotes by later authors. Eight pages of a Byzantine manuscript copy of the ancient text have survived hidden underneath the visible surface of the last four parchment folios of the Vienna manuscript Historicus graecus 73, f. 192r -195v4. The copy is written in a Greek calligraphic minuscule which has been estimated by palaeographers to be of the middle or the second half of the eleventh century. In the thirteenth century, the text (on each of the eight pages arranged in one column, with 30 lines per page) was washed of the parchment and the valuable material made from animal skin was re-used for Christian texts. The new writing largely covered the faded remnants of the original text. It thus became hidden from the human eye for more than seven hundred years. Its discovery by Jana Grusková, a classical philologist specialized in the transmission of Greek texts, resulted from a systematic review of all Greek palimpsests kept at the Austrian National Library in Vienna at the beginning of the twenty-first century and a detailed examination of the four folios in 2007-20097.

T1 - BAMresearch/NFDI4IngScientificWorkflowRequirements: Initial version N2 - Software-driven scientific workflows are often characterized by a complex interplay of various pieces of software executed in a particular order. The output of a computational step may serve as input to a subsequent computation, which requires them to be processed sequentially with a proper mapping of outputs to inputs. Other computations are independent of each other and can be executed in parallel. Thus, one of the main tasks of a workflow tool is a proper and efficient scheduling of the individual processing steps. Each processing step, just as the workflow itself, typically processes some input and produces output data. Apart from changing the input data to operate on, processing steps can usually be configured by a set of parameters to change their behavior. Moreover, the behavior of a processing step is determined by its source code and/or executable binaries/packages that are called within it. Beyond this, the computation environment not only has a significant influence on its behavior, but is also crucial in order for the processing step to work at all. The environment includes the versions of the interpreters or compilers, as well as all third-party libraries and packages that contribute to the computations carried out in a processing step.
