TyphoonRemote sensingTyphoons inflicted great press on coastal environment. Seagrass, one of the most important constituents of coastal ecosystem, have been also greatly affected by typhoon. This chapter reviews
While extensive research has explored the effects of plastic pollution, ecosystem responses remain poorly quantified, especially in field experiments. In this study, we investigated the impact of polyester pollution, a prevalent plastic type, on coastal sediment ecosystem function. Strips of polyester net...
Typhoon Fitow generated substantial rainfall with a total of 742mm/4 days in Ningbo. The surge height reached 1.07 m (to enhance the maximum water level at 3.75 m) and caused coastal inundation and backlash on major fluvial channels and streams with interruption of stormwater drainage discharge....
The membranes were exposed to a storage phosphor screen, and radioactive signals were detected in a Typhoon scanner (GE Healthcare). Relative ribosome abundances were inferred from hybridization signals of plastid and cytosolic rRNA species on the basis of quantification of signal intensities with ...
For example, the case study of Typhoon Lupit (2009) shows that the ACI effect of anthropogenic aerosol intensified the TC due to invigorating convection and releasing more latent heat in the eyewall, but that the ARI effect of pollution weakened the TC because of low-level shortwave radiative ...
Typhoon season in some countries like China will enhance the air quality by distributing Hg in larger areas through the atmos- phere. On the other hand, typhoons enhanced the wet deposi- tion processes into soil and water bodies. The total gaseous mercury (TGM) concentration emitting from ...
The restoration of lake ecosystems requires a good knowledge of the lake’s history and the driving mechanism of environmental changes. In this study, we used Lake Datong, the largest inland lake in Hunan Province China, as an example to study the effect
elegans has been more recently proposed, based on normalizing carbonyl-related signal to total protein in SDS-PAGE multiplexing experiments and fluorescence scanning in a Typhoon biomolecular imager [87]; according to the authors, this approach improves the performance of classical OxyBlot. Fluorescein-...
"Since the most damage by far comes from the most intense hurricanes — such as typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines in 2013 — this means that hurricanes could become overall more destructive," said Sobel, a Columbia University professor in the departments of Earth and Environmental Sciences, and ...
Typhoon Morakot was an example of high temperature with extremely low AP associated with higher ACS incidence than the daily average. Combinations of high concentrations of PM or CO with low temperatures (<21 °C) and high humidity levels with low temperatures were also associated with increased...
