Instruments for distributed fiber‐optic measurement of temperature are now available with resolution 0.01°C and spatial 1 m temporal fractions a minute along standard cables used communication lengths up to 30,000 m. We discuss the spectrum tools that may be employed make these measurements, illuminating potential limitations methods in hydrologic science. There trade‐offs between precision temperature, resolution, following square root number measurements made; thus brief, short less...
Fresh precipitates, deposited from seepage waters of complex-ore mine-tailing impoundment at Zlaté Hory, Czech Republic, were characterized by means X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, low temperature and in-field Mössbauer spectroscopy, Brunauer−Emmett−Teller surface area measurements. The prevailing phases (∼96 wt %) found in precipitates are poorly crystalline, 2−6 nm sized two-line ferrihydrite, forming globular aggregates about 150 diameter, rimmed acicular irregular...
Securing new sources of renewable energy and achieving national self-sufficiency in natural gas have become increasingly important recent times. The study described this paper focuses on three geologically diverse underground reservoirs (UGS) that are the habitat methane-producing archaea, as well other microorganisms with which methanogens various ecological relationships. objective research was to describe microbial metabolism methane these specific anoxic environments during year. DNA...
According to the literature, pyrite (FeS2) oxidation has been previously determined involve thiosulfate as first aqueous intermediate sulfur product, which is further oxidized sulfate. In present study, by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans was studied using electrochemical and metabolic approaches in an effort extend existing knowledge on mechanism. Due small surface area, reaction rate of a compact electrode form polycrystalline aggregate A. suspension very slow at spontaneously formed high...
Electric field assisted remediation using nano iron has shown outstanding results as well economic benefits during pilot applications (Černíková et al., 2020). This method is based on donating electrons to the zero-valent that possess an inherently strong reductive capacity. The reduction of chlorinated hydrocarbons may be characterized by a decrease in contaminants or better still evolution ethene and ethane originating from ethenes. was observed predominantly vicinity anode despite...
Abstract The present study represents the first broader evaluation of rapid 30‐s kinetic bioluminescence assay with Vibrio fisheri (microplate format modification) for contact toxicity testing whole sediments. focused on river sediments from Morava River basin, Czech Republic, repeatedly sampled during 2005 to 2006 and analyzed geological geochemical parameters, content toxic metals, major organic pollutants, toxicity. High natural variation in (50% inhibitory concentration [IC50] values...
The study of Antarctic ecosystem provides a valuable insight into the nature development on Earth. Biocenosis formation and colonization land by organisms are noticeable especially in newly-deglaciated areas. In this research, soil profile coastal zone James Ross Island was investigated. main objective characterisation horizons. contents As, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Ni, P, Se Zn were measured using ICP-MS technique. Soil parameters like organic carbon content, pH content ofsub-63...
Abstract We apply the Linear Storage Model (LSM) to simulate influence of evapotranspiration on discharges. High resolution discharge data from two small catchments in Czech Republic, Teply Brook and Starosuchdolsky catchment are used. The results show runoff process is simpler a deeper valley where soil zone bottom recharges even during very dry periods. Two-soil model adequate diurnal variability. Three-soil needed due absence water transport most-upper zone. Time delays between minimum...
