Structure of the most stable methylaluminoxane anion [(MeAlO)16(Me3Al)6Me]− and its precursor Methylaluminoxane (MAO) serves as the predominant cocatalyst in olefin polymerization, yet the structure of its dominant anionic component observed in mass spectrometry has remained problematic despit...

On Friday, 7 March we took #Aarhus rights to the #UniversityofEasternFinland!

Together with students, we explored how young people can hold governments accountable by submitting legal complaints to the EU Commission.

Effects of Atmospheric Pollutants on Volatile‐Mediated Insect Ecosystem Services This review addresses the current state of knowledge on the effects of air pollutants on volatile organic compound-mediated insect–plant interactions, which underlie key ecosystem services. Significa...
