Understanding soil nutrient distributions and the factors affecting them are crucial for fertilizer management environmental protection in vulnerable ecological regions. Based on 555 samples collected 2012 Renshou County, located purple hilly area of Sichuan Basin, China, spatial variability total nitrogen (TN), phosphorus (TP) potassium (TK) was studied with geostatistical analysis relative roles were quantified using regression analysis. The means TN, TP TK contents 1.12, 0.82 9.64 g kg−1,...
Abstract. Motivated by the lack of long-term global soil moisture products with both high spatial and temporal resolutions, a 1 km daily spatiotemporally continuous product (GLASS SM) was generated from 2000 to 2020 using an ensemble learning model (eXtreme Gradient Boosting – XGBoost). The developed integrating multiple datasets, including albedo, land surface temperature, leaf area index Global Land Surface Satellite (GLASS) suite, as well European reanalysis (ERA5-Land) product, in situ...
Abstract Investigations of coupled multiphysics processes in rivers and hyporheic zones have extensively used numerical models. Most existing models use a sequential, one‐way coupling between the surface subsurface domains. Such potentially introduces error. To overcome this, fully model, hyporheicFoam , was developed using open‐source computational platform OpenFOAM. It captures flow multicomponent reactive transport within both domains across their interface. The two is implemented by...
Commuters are reportedly exposed to severe traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) during their commuting trips. This study was designed and implemented (1) compare particulate matter (PM) exposure across four common transportation modes; (2) examine analyze various determining factors; (3) estimate public health effects caused by PM. All analyses calculations were based on the experimental data collected from 13 volunteers, including heart-rate 336 trips in travel modes Xi'an China. The...
The DNA damage inducible gene ribonucleotide reductase (RNR3) is regulated by a transcriptional repression mechanism the recruitment of Ssn6-Tup1 corepressor complex to its promoter sequence-specific DNA-binding protein Crt1. reported represses transcription interfering with factors, recruiting histone deacetylases, and positioning nucleosomes at target genes. Two three mechanisms involve effects on chromatin structure, therefore, we have delineated nucleosomal structure RNR3 in repressed...
Quantification of the spatial pattern urban heat island intensities across transnational agglomeration Tumen River is important for promotion sustainable regional development. This study employed Landsat images and MODIS LST data obtained in 2016 to determine intensity islands this region, enabling direct comparison from sub-regions China, Democratic People’s Republic Korea (DPRK), Russia. The average region was found be 1.0 °C, with highest 3.0 °C occurring during summer time. on Chinese...
Abstract There is a need for more detailed spatial information on soil organic carbon (SOC) the accurate estimation of SOC stock and earth system models. As it effective to use environmental factors as auxiliary variables improve prediction accuracy spatially distributed modeling, combined method (HASM_EF) was developed predict pattern across China using high surface modeling (HASM), artificial neural network (ANN), principal component analysis (PCA) introduce land uses, types, climatic...
Improvement of power production in a microbial fuel cell (MFC) with high density culture strategy was developed. By using culture, the voltage output and MFC were enhanced about 0.6 1.6 times compared to control, respectively. Further analysis showed that riboflavin concentration dramatically increased from 0.1 mg/L 1.2 by culture. Moreover, biofilm formation on anode surface significantly this new strategy. The accumulation electron shuttle (riboflavin) as well contributed improvement...
Abstract Soil easily oxidizable organic carbon (EOC) is directly related to CO 2 density; dynamics in subsurface EOC have been observed globally relation rapid urbanization. However, the context of urbanization, factors and response pool urbanization down profile remain elusive. The aim current paper investigate possible changes distribution over soil impact land use, socioeconomic, natural on these. study used samples from 182 profiles (0–100 cm) taken peri‐urban areas megacity Chengdu (a...
Abstract The complex interactions among soil, vegetation, and site hydrologic conditions driven by precipitation tidal cycles control the biogeochemical transformations bi‐directional exchange of carbon nutrients across terrestrial–aquatic interfaces (TAIs) in coastal regions. This study uses a highly mechanistic model, Advanced Terrestrial Simulator (ATS)‐PFLOTRAN, to explore how these affect exchanges materials nitrogen cycling. We used transect Chesapeake Bay region that spans zones open...
Abstract. Surface air temperature (Ta), as an important climate variable, has been used in a wide range of fields such ecology, hydrology, climatology, epidemiology, and environmental science. However, ground measurements are limited by poor spatial representation inconsistency, while reanalysis meteorological forcing datasets suffer from coarse resolution inaccuracy. Previous studies using satellite data have mainly estimated Ta under clear-sky conditions, or with temporal coverage. In this...
