Controlled-Release Fertilizers for Florida Citrus Production by Tom Obreza, Bob Rouse

“…Nitrogen sources have received little attention because most managers are accustomed to using water-soluble fertilizers like ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, and urea. Synthetic controlled-release fertilizers (CRFs) have existed commercially for more than 35 years, but other than use in young-tree fertilizer blends, Florida citrus growers have avoided them due to high cost and lack of production experience. …”

Atmospheric Observations over Central Japan Using a Helicopter: Measurements of Hydrogen Peroxide and Formaldehyde by Koichi Watanabe, Mei Jia Jin, Xiao Jing Song, Liu Yang, Kaede Genmoto, Yumeko Ichikawa, Yu Nagahori, Kanji Chimura, Haruka Nagamura

“…The concentrations of H2O2 were also lower than the concentrations of HCHO, suggesting that the formation of hydroxymethanesulfonate might have been more likely than that of sulfate in the liquid phase. The H2O2 concentrations were generally higher in autumn than in the cold season, and they were higher than the SO2 concentrations in the high-altitude atmosphere. …”
