The critical zone supports all terrestrial life. Together with environmental sciences, studies focused on the critical zone seek to understand the complex interactions between hydrosphere, cryosphere, lithosphere, biosphere and atmosphere that result in the products, such as soil, and processes that support ecosystems and determine the availability of resources. Bruker seeks to provide innovative technological solutions for monitoring and characterizing ecosystem substrates, nutrients, contaminants and life.
水是地球最有价值的资源。Bruker提供的工具可以测量从重金属含量到有机化合物,微塑料颗粒再到油的所有方面。Bruker无论是在现场还是在实验室中进行分析,有助于确保许多不同水平的水质,最终的准确性。
总反射X射线荧光(TXRF)就是这样的工具。TXRF是一种用于分析水中重金属的多功能技术,以最低的成本和样品制备实现,测量了Mg - U从Mg - U向下至每十亿美元的元素浓度。由于该技术基于能量色散XRF,因此样品中存在的所有元素都包含在相同的测量中,允许使用样品的完整元素剖面。解决方案包括:
The versatile and ruggedS2 PICOFOX, which may be equipped with a 25-disk sample changer and analysis range of Al – U.
高容量S4 T-STARwith a 90-position sample changer and option for up to three excitations for full elemental coverage from Mg – U. The T-STAR meets some of the most difficult elemental analysis requirements.
土壤是关键区域中最重要的自然资源之一。在土壤中使用分析技术来研究矿物质,有机物,气体和液体,包括受污染的土壤和成分进行,用于教育研究和农学。布鲁克的分析工具包括:
便携式XRF用于评估原位的土壤理化特性,包括土壤质地和成分
Fine-scale geochemical mapping withmicro-XRFallowing visualization of the elemental structure of soil
High-resolution scanning electron microscopes withEDS spectrometerselucidate soil micromorphology and the microscopic weathering processes foundational to pedogenesis
振动光谱法including FT-IR, NIR, and Raman can be used for mineral identification and organic matter characterizations.
