On the sources of vegetation activity variation, and their relation with water balance in Mexico - Mora, Iverson - 1998 () Citation Context ...vels of vegetation productivity and seasonality of particular land-cover types can be related to water balance variables such as soil moisture and ...
Along with groundwater, ice makes up the second largest source of freshwater on the planet, accounting for just under 2 percent of earth's water. Some of the freshwater preserved in ice, especially in the Antarctic ice sheets, is thousands of years old. As with groundwater and seawater, it...
Climate change interacts with the sources and cycling of contaminants, such as radionuclides, in the environment. In this review, we discuss the implications of climate change impacts on existing and potential future sources of radionuclides associated with human activities to the marine environment. Th...
Herein, we propose a strategy of biomimetic mineralization coupling with seeds-induced foaming to optimize porous carbon sheets (CNMK) with excellent performance in ICE of 90 %, rate capability of 528 mAh g−1 at 0.05 A g−1 and 139 mAh g−1 at 50 A g−1, and capacity retention...
The goal of this work is to characterize the mass concentration of ambient PM10, carbonaceous species like total carbon (TC), organic carbon (OC), and elemental carbon (EC), and water-soluble ions like NH4+, Na+, K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+for the urban environment of Peshawar (Pakistan) durin...
It is well known that extremely cold environments have significant impacts on the ecology, metabolism, and evolution of psychrophilic organisms. However, the relationship between metabolic and biomineralogical processes is not understood. In this chapter
The common polymer types of soil microplastics are polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and polystyrene (PS) (Table 1). As shown in Table 1, the common shapes of MPs detected in different locations are fibers, films, fragments / sheets, pellets / spheres and foams. Li et al. (2021) ...
(1997). Its values range spatially from 0.59 to 27 cm2 year−1, decreasing in magnitude as water depth increases. It is constant throughout the depth of the Holocene bioturbated zone and immediately drops to zero beneath it. Values of 0 and c0 are chosen to describe the...
A large amount of dust from the Sahara reaches the Amazon Basin, as observed with satellite imagery. This dust is thought to carry micronutrients that could help fertilize the rainforest. However, considering different atmospheric transport conditions, d
, especially the activity related sources, the quantitative contribution of pollutants cannot be allocated to specific sources because of several sources producing simultaneous pollutant contributions to the same mass of runoff water, or because of high unpredictability, e.g., in the case of spills. ...
