Effect of Ethanol on Microbial Community Structure and Function During Natural Attenuation of Benzene, Toluene, and \u3cem\u3eo\u3c/em\u3e-Xylene in a Sulfate-reducing Aquifer [PDF]
Ethanol (EtOH) is a commonly used fuel oxygenate in reformulated gasoline and is an alternative fuel and fuel supplement. Effects of EtOH release on aquifer microbial ecology and geochemistry have not been well characterized in situ.

BLOEM: A spatially explicit model of bioenergy and carbon capture and storage, applied to Brazil
Bioenergy could play a major role in decarbonizing energy systems. However, its large‐scale deployment could be related to sustainability issues and major infrastructure investments. In this study, we present the Bioenergy and Land Optimization Spatially Explicit Model (BLOEM), applied to Brazil.

Mathematical modeling of groundwater contamination with varying velocity field
In this study, analytical models for predicting groundwater contamination in isotropic and homogeneous porous formations are derived. The impact of dispersion and diffusion coefficients is included in the solution of the advection-dispersion equation ...

Modeling Virus Transport and Removal during Storage and Recovery in Heterogeneous Aquifers [PDF]
A quantitative understanding of virus removal during aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) in physically and geochemically heterogeneous aquifers is needed to accurately assess human health risks from viral infections.

Extraordinary phylogenetic diversity and metabolic versatility in aquifer sediment
Microorganisms in the subsurface represent a substantial but poorly understood component of the Earth’s biosphere. Subsurface environments are complex and difficult to characterize; thus, their microbiota have remained as a ‘dark matter’ of the carbon ...

Abstract Climate and catchment characteristics, particularly land and water use and management, may vary according to the population growth rate, future food habits and water demands. Three climate simulations corresponding to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (A1B) were downscaled using the ‘Providing
