31. The influence of water was minimal based on experiments where the amount of admitted water was varied by a factor of 2. No changes in the EELS and TPD data were observed.
32. The 2-3 K difference in absolute peak desorption maxima observed in this work and our previous work was ascribed to heating rate and thermocouple position variations.
