A simplified pore-scale model for slow drainage including film-flow effects [PDF]
Film flow through networks of corners and capillary bridges can establish connections between seemingly isolated clusters during drainage in porous media. Coupled with drainage through the bulk of pores and throats, the flow through these networks constitutes a secondary drainage mechanism that can significantly affect fluid configurations and residual

The effective mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions from rice paddies without compromising yield by early-season drainage [PDF]
Global rice production systems face two opposing challenges: the need to increase production to accommodate the world's growing population while simultaneously reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Adaptations to drainage regimes are one of the most promising options for methane mitigation in rice production.

CNS lymphatic drainage and neuroinflammation are regulated by meningeal lymphatic vasculature
Neuroinflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, are characterized by invasion of the brain by autoreactive T cells. The mechanism for how T cells acquire their encephalitogenic phenotype and trigger disease remains, however, unclear.

A minimalist model for co-evolving supply and drainage networks [PDF]
Numerous complex systems, both natural and artificial, are characterized by the presence of intertwined supply and/or drainage networks. Here we present a minimalist model of such co-evolving networks in a spatially continuous domain, where the obtained networks can be interpreted as a part of either the counter-flowing drainage or co-flowing supply ...

The composition of the stream system of a drainage basin can be expressed quantitatively in terms of stream order, drainage density, bifurcation ratio, and stream-length ratio. Stream orders are so chosen that the fingertip or unbranched tributaries are

Effect of saline drainage water on performance of denitrification bioreactors
Excessive use of nitrate fertilizers in agriculture causes harm to humans and the environment. The most suitable nitrate removal process is heterotrophic biological denitrification.

Stabilization of Bentonite Nanoparticles Modified by Cationic Surfactant on Pumice Aggregates for the Removal of Nitrate from Aqueous Solution [PDF]
Nitrate contamination in water resources has become an important issue because of the environmental issue and potential risk to human health. The aim of this study is investigating the stabilization of modified bentonite nanoparticles by cationic ...
