Nonlinear diffusion from Einstein's master equation (2007)

Boon, J. P., Lutsko, J. F.

We generalize Einstein's master equation for random walk processes by considering that the probability for a particle at position $r$ to make a jump of length $j$ lattice sites, $P_j(r)$ is a...

Biological and ecological factors related to trace element levels in harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) from European waters (2007)

LAHAYE, V, BUSTAMANTE, Paco, LAW, J.R, LEARMONTH, J.A, SANTOS, M.B., BOON, J.P., ...

Selected trace elements (Cd, Cu, Hg, Se, Zn) were measured in the kidneys and the liver of 104 harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) stranded along the coasts of France, Galicia (Spain), Ireland,...

Characterization of transport and deposition of terrestrial organic matter in the Southern North Sea using the BIT index (2006)

Herfort, L., Schouten, S., Boon, J.P., Woltering, M., Baas, M., Weijers, J., ...

We have applied a recently introduced proxy, the BIT (branched and isoprenoid tetraether) index, to determine terrestrial organic matter (TOM) transport from the rivers Rhine and Meuse and their...

Application of the TEX86 temperature proxy to the southern North Sea (2006)

Herfort, L., Schouten, S., Boon, J.P., Sinninghe Damsté, J.S.

A novel temperature proxy, the tetraether index of lipids with 86 carbon atoms (TEX86), was applied to the suspended particulate organic matter (POM) and sediment core tops from eight sites in the...

Levels of hexabromocyclododecane in harbor porpoises and common dolphins from western European seas, with evidence for stereoisomer-specific biotransformation by cytochrome P450 (2005)

Zegers, B., Mets, A., Bommel, R. Van, Minkenberg, C., Hamers, T., Kamstra, J.H., ...

Commercial hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) is a high production-volume flame-retardant applied in polystyrene foams. It contains three stereoisomers, of which gamma-HBCD always dominates. Here we...

Distribution and Fate of HBCD and TBBPA Brominated Flame Retardants in North Sea Estuaries and Aquatic Food Webs (2004)

Morris, S., Allchin, C.R., Zegers, B.N., Haftka, J.J.H., Boon, J.P., Belpaire, C., ...

Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) and hexabromocyclododecane diastereoisomers (-, -, and -HBCD) were investigated in effluents from sewage treatment works, landfill leachates, sediments, and food web...

Levels of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ether Flame Retardants in Sediment Cores from Western Europe (2003)

Zegers, B.N., Lewis, W.E., Booij, K., Smittenberg, R.H., ...

The levels of 14 brominated diphenyl ether (BDE)-congeners in sediment cores from three locations in Western Europe have been determined by GC/MS (negative chemical ionization mode). Sediments from...

Levels of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ether (PBDE) flame retardants in animals representing different trophic levels of the North Sea food web (2002)

Boon, J.P., Lewis, W.E., Allchin, C.R., Law, R.J.

The levels of individual PBDE congeners were investigated in the invertebrate species whelk (Buccinum undatum), seastar (Asterias rubens), and hermit crab (Pagurus bernhardus), the gadoid fish...

Dynamics of adsorbed islands with nanoscale resolution (2001)

Kruse, N., Voss, C., Medvedev, V., Bodenstein, C., Hanon, D., Boon, J. P.

Surface catalytic processes produce, under certain conditions, small clusters of adsorbed atoms or groups, called {\em islands} which, after they have been formed, move as individual entities. Here...

Method for the analysis of polybrominated diphenylethers in sediments and biota (2001)

Allchin, C., Law, R., Zegers, B., Boon, J.P.

Three institutes worked together on the development and improvement of methods for the analysis of polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDEs) in sediments and biota. The methods developed consist of a...

Rembrandt and his paints (2000)

Boon, J P

REMBRANDT'S Technique in context and mass spectrometric analysis of 17th and 19th century paintings,respectively.

Kinetics of individual polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) components in juvenile sole (Solea solea) in relation to their concentrations in food and to lipid metabolism (1984)

Boon, J.P., Duinker, J.C.

1. PCBs were administered to juvenile soles (Solea solea) with food. Homogenates of gut, liver, brain, dark skin, muscle and gills were analysed for their contents of individual PCB components. The...

Analysis of the approach to the convection instability point (1974)

Boon, J.P., Lekkerkerker, H.N.W.

A spectral analysis is presented of the fluctuations in a horizontal fluid layer subject to a downward directed temperature gradient, which, for a critical value, drives the system in a convective...
