Microbially induced corrosion (MIC) on concrete represents a serious issue impairing the lifespan of coastal/marine infrastructure. However, currently developed protection strategies have limitations in wide applications. Here, biomineralization method was proposed to form biomineralized film surfaces for inhibition. Laboratory seawater experiments were conducted under different conditions [e.g., chemical (CC), MIC, and inhibition]. A combination mechanical property measurements (e.g.,...
AbstractSequential extraction was used to study the operationally determined chemical forms of four heavy metals (Zn, Cu, Ni and Co) their spatial distribution in sediments Pearl River Estuary. It found that residual fraction most important phase for these sediments. Among non-residual fractions, Zn, Co were mainly associated with Fe–Mn oxide while Cu organic fraction. The Zn bound had significant relationships reducible Mn Fe concentrations (Fe–Mn oxides), suggesting oxides may be main...
Interactions between surface gravity waves and a floating rigid body are complex, as may reflect from, break on, be transmitted behind the body. Studies of these phenomena critically important in improving safety functional efficiency offshore structures. Here, wave attenuation performance motions type breakwater (FB) studied through numerical experimental approaches. A tank (NWT) is developed based on software OpenFOAM properties channel from laboratory. In NWT, air–water interface captured...
ABSTRACT Infiltration and channel roughness, two major factors that govern stream discharge, were studied in similar‐sized ephemeral perennial streams a mountainous tropical catchment. Seasons defined based on flow conditions, i.e., with (wet season) without (dry surface flow. A was divided transversely into low‐flow areas (close to the thalweg) high‐flow margin). The highest average infiltration (~50 mm/h) observed low around thalweg of dry season significantly higher than for any other...
Using Deep Bay in China as an example, effective method for the retrieval of total suspended sediment (TSS) concentration using HJ-1A/1B satellite images is proposed. The factors driving variation TSS spatial distribution are also discussed. Two field surveys, conducted on August 29 and October 26, 2012, showed that there was a strong linear relationship (R2 = 0.9623) between field-surveyed OBS (optical backscatter) measurements (5-31NTU) laboratory-analyzed concentrations (9.89–35.58 mg/L)....
This study proposed a method for developing high spatial resolution Gaofen-1 satellite (GF-1) Wide Field Imager (WFI)-based total suspended matter concentration (CTSM) retrieval model with the assistance of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data, using Deep Bay in China as case. Based on long-term calibrated CTSM measurements optical backscatter (OBS) 3A turbidity and temperature monitoring system two stationary stations from January 2007 through November 2008, 33...
