03 Aug 1994TL;DR: In this article, a metallocene catalyst and catalyst system is used for the polymerization of olefins into a polymer product. But the polymer product has a broad molecular weight distribution, a high molecular weight and a narrow composition distribution and is easily processable.
Abstract: The invention generally relates to a catalyst, particularly a metallocene catalyst and catalyst system useful in the polymerization of olefins into a polymer product. The polymer product has a broad molecular weight distribution, a high molecular weight and a narrow composition distribution and is easily processable.

TL;DR: The amount of sulfate reduced in the oil-amended nonsterile incubations was more than enough to account for the complete mineralization of the n-alkane fraction of the oil; no loss of this anion was observed in sterile control incubations.
Abstract: The ability of anaerobic microorganisms to degrade a wide variety of crude oil components was investigated using chronically hydrocarbon-contaminated marine sediments as the source of inoculum. When sulfate reduction was the predominant electron-accepting process, gas chromatographic analysis revealed almost complete n-alkane removal (C15−C34) from a weathered oil within 201 d of incubation. No alteration of the oil was detected in sterile control incubations or when nitrate served as an alternate electron acceptor. The amount of sulfate reduced in the oil-amended nonsterile incubations was more than enough to account for the complete mineralization of the n-alkane fraction of the oil; no loss of this anion was observed in sterile control incubations. The mineralization of the alkanes was confirmed using 14C-14,15-octacosane (C28H58), with 97% of the radioactivity recovered as 14CO2. These findings extend the range of hydrocarbons known to be amenable to anaerobic biodegradation. Moreover, the rapid and e...

TL;DR: It is shown that the modern four-layer ocean structure (surface, intermediate, deep, and bottom waters) developed during the early Oligocene as a consequence of the ACC, indicating the development of intermediate-depth δ13C and O2 minima closely linked in the modern ocean to northward incursion of Antarctic Intermediate Water.
Abstract: Global cooling and the development of continental-scale Antarctic glaciation occurred in the late middle Eocene to early Oligocene (~38 to 28 million years ago), accompanied by deep-ocean reorganization attributed to gradual Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) development. Our benthic foraminiferal stable isotope comparisons show that a large δ13C offset developed between mid-depth (~600 meters) and deep (>1000 meters) western North Atlantic waters in the early Oligocene, indicating the development of intermediate-depth δ13C and O2 minima closely linked in the modern ocean to northward incursion of Antarctic Intermediate Water. At the same time, the ocean’s coldest waters became restricted to south of the ACC, probably forming a bottom-ocean layer, as in the modern ocean. We show that the modern four-layer ocean structure (surface, intermediate, deep, and bottom waters) developed during the early Oligocene as a consequence of the ACC.
