A Field Guide for Soil Erosion Risk Assessment in Olive Orchards Across Mediterranean Conditions for End‐Users and Stakeholders

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion control poses a crucial challenge to the sustainability of Mediterranean olive groves. To facilitate field‐level decision‐making, we have developed a field guide oriented to use in any type of olive orchard across the Mediterranean.

Neurodevelopmental Disorder with Dystonia and Chorea Linked to De Novo Variants in the Splicing Regulator SRRM4

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background SRRM4 is an exclusively neural‐expressed splicing‐factor gene not yet associated with a monogenic condition. Objective We sought to delineate movement disorders caused by SRRM4 variants. De novo splice‐donor‐site variants at position +2 of intron 5 of SRRM4 (c.464+2T>C, c.464+2T>A) occurred in three unrelated patients with dystonia ...

Microbially driven organic carbon cycling at the land−sea interface: Advances and an integrated study framework

open access: yesmLife, EarlyView.
Abstract The land−sea interface is a vital component of global biogeochemical cycles, where microorganisms drive the cycling of carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur. This review synthesizes the research progress from representative land−sea interfaces to elucidate how the microbial community structure and metabolic function influence the mobilization ...

Examination of effective parameters for the production of expanded clay aggregate

Cement and Concrete Composites, 2012
Abstract It is important to know which parameters are effective for the manufacture of expanded clay aggregate and to determine how effective these parameters are on expansion. In this study, expansion tests were conducted by using samples from three separate fields to determine how different parameters influence manufacturing.

Microstructure of Crushable Expanded Clay Aggregates

2023
The images show two different and complementary views of a mixture of Light Expanded Clay Aggregate (LECA) particles with size ranging between 0.25–1.0 mm. The upper-left is a SEM image showing a projected view of the particles, while the lower-left is a slice of a micro Computed Tomography (μCT) 3D reconstruction.

Microstructural Analysis of Iberian Expanded Clay Aggregates

Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2012
AbstractThis article presents a detailed study of the microstructure of Iberian expanded clay lightweight aggregates (LWA). Other than more commonly used mercury porosimetry (MP) and water absorption methods, the experimental study involves optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and microtomography (μ-CT).

The application of sewage sludge as an expanding agent in the production of lightweight expanded clay aggregate mass

Environmental Technology, 2011
Sewage sludge can be used as an expanding agent in the production of lightweight expanded clay aggregate (LECA) mass. The addition of sewage sludge increases the total porosity and decreases the bulk density of a sinter. The addition of sewage sludge to a raw material used in the production of LECA enabled a decrease in the burning temperature for the ...

Expanded Clay and Shale Aggregates for Leachate Collection Systems

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 1997
In regions dominated by high-carbonate aggregates, landfill owners are faced with using alternative materials for leachate collection systems. Expanded clay and shale, known as lightweight aggregates, contain essentially no carbonates and may provide a suitable alternative. We performed an engineering evaluation of expanded clay and shale aggregates to

Behaviour of Expanded Flyash Clay Aggregate Concrete Exposed to Elevated Temperature

International Journal of Uncertainty, Fuzziness and Knowledge-Based Systems, 2021
Expanded flyash clay aggregate (EFCA) is a promising sustainable alternative to coarse aggregate in concrete. Concrete specimens with conventional natural aggregate and EFCA as coarse aggregates were prepared separately and exposed to elevated temperatures of range 200°C, 400°C, 600°C and 800°C, observed for surface changes like change in color and ...
