Thermoregulation and ventilation of termite mounds

J Korb - Naturwissenschaften, 2003 - Springer
… C (Korb 1997; Korb and Linsenmair 1998a). However, the nest temperature is also influenced
by ambient temperature. In small mounds that harbour small colonies (Collins 1981), nest …

Multiscale nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion of complex liquids in bulk and confinement

JP Korb - Progress in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance …, 2018 - Elsevier
The nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion (NMRD) technique consists of measurement of

Surface relaxation and chemical exchange in hydrating cement pastes: a two-dimensional NMR relaxation study

PJ McDonald, JP Korb, J Mitchell, L Monteilhet - Physical Review E, 2005 - APS
We report the first nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) two-dimensional correlation T 1− T 2
