Publisher: Florida Atlantic University
Description: Geologic storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) into deep
saline aquifers is a promising strategy for mitigation
of global atmospheric CO2 levels-a main cause of
climate change. These aquifers have the capacity
to safely store significant amounts of CO2 and are
available worldwide. As such, reaction dynamics and
multiphase transport accompanying CO2 injection in
deep aquifers are important to… more

Description: Medical intervention is required for positive growth
and improvement in newborns, especially preterm
infants. Premature infants often require heel-pricking
procedures, such as the Guthrie test, in order to
determine if the child has a variety of diseases such
as sickle cell anemia. The Guthrie test can have a
negative effect on the patients’ behavior and psychological
