Article Synopsis
- The Chukchi Sea is becoming a significant carbon dioxide (CO2) sink due to rapid climate changes, highlighting the need to understand seasonal variations in air-sea CO exchange and biogeochemical processes.
- Data from five cruises in 2014 revealed that the combination of Bering summer water and meltwater has a much higher capacity for atmospheric CO2 uptake compared to Alaskan Coastal Water due to stronger biological CO removal.
- A variable phytoplankton stoichiometry led to higher dissolved inorganic carbon-based net community production (NCP) than nitrate-based NCP, indicating that during peak growth season, a notable portion of CO2 uptake relies on flexible phytoplankton nutrient ratios, which is crucial for predicting future responses
In this paper, the molecular mechanisms which determine the thermal conductivity of long chain polymer liquids are discussed, based on the results observed in molecular dynamics simulations. Linear n-alkanes, which are typical polymer molecules, were chosen as the target of our studies. Non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of bulk liquid n-alkanes under a constant temperature gradient were performed.
