Technical note: Comparison of radiometric techniques for estimating recent organic carbon sequestration rates in inland wetland soils [PDF]
For wetlands to serve as natural climate solutions, accurate estimates of organic carbon (OC) sequestration rates in wetland sediments are needed. Dating using cesium-137 (137Cs) and lead-210 (210Pb) radioisotopes is commonly used for measuring OC ...

Gamma irradiation (Dmin 650 Gy) proved effective in controlling insect pest infestations in stored wheat grains which otherwise undergo extensive losses during storage. SWATH‐MS based proteomics affirmed integrity of major storage proteins including prolamines and increased extractability of phenolics (soluble free & conjugated) was observed in ...

Episodic Rifting of a Large Igneous Province Concentrated Along a Microcontinent Boundary
Abstract Many large igneous provinces (LIPs) comprise once contiguous magmatic products that are now fragmented across multiple tectonic plates. Emplacement of these voluminous magmatic products is commonly coeval with, or shortly followed by, fragmentation into constituent domains.

Brachytherapy in Breast Cancer Treatment: Physical and Biological Aspects
This scientific paper focuses on the treatment of breast cancer, one of the most common cancers among women. Despite increased awareness and the popularity of screening tests, statistics indicate a significant rise in incidence.

Abstract Submarine groundwater discharge and porewater exchange are critical but often overlooked sources of nutrients to coastal systems. This study investigates how sediment permeability and summer‐winter seasonal dynamics influence the magnitude and biogeochemistry of nutrient fluxes from submarine groundwater discharge and porewater exchange ...

ABSTRACT Exposure to environmental pollutants can disrupt the gut microbiota, but how pollutants impact natural, seasonal changes in wildlife gut microbiota remains unknown. We quantified how exposure to radionuclides affected temporal changes in the gut microbiota of bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus) inhabiting the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ ...

Quantifying Atmospheric Fallout of Fukushima-Derived Radioactive Isotopes in Mushrooms in the Hawaiian Islands [PDF]
In March of 2011, the radioisotopes cesium-134 and cesium-137 were released into the atmosphere from the damaged Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant. This study estimated the magnitude of atmospheric fallout of these isotopes on Oʻahu and Hawaiʻi, and

The transfer of radiocesium from blood to the lumen of individual sections of the gastro-intestinal tract was quantitatively determined. The water suspension of ion exchange resin was injected to the lumen of the individual sections of the gastro-intestinal tract. The sections were ligated. The highest amount of radiocesium absorbed to the resin in the

Organic Carbon Burial Rates in Muddy Temperate Shelf Sea Sediments
Abstract Muddy continental shelf sediments act as important sinks for atmospheric CO2 by accumulating organic matter, a small fraction of which is buried and stored as organic carbon (OC) over long timescales. Quantifying long‐term OC burial in shelf sediments is critical for understanding their role in climate regulation; however, this remains ...

Al‐Khadhaf: The first camera‐observed (H5–6) meteorite fall from Oman
Abstract A fireball camera system installed in 2022 by the Oman Meteorite Monitoring Project (OMMP) as part of the Global Fireball Observatory (GFO) recorded a 3.2 s fireball on March 8, 2022 at 8:15 p.m. UTC. A meteoroid of 4 ± 2 kg entered the atmosphere at 14.0 km/s.
