A novel cationic metal–organic framework (MOF‐monoAg) featuring monodispersed silver (Ag+) sites is developed for the highly selective extraction of aqueous iodide ions (I−). MOF‐monoAg exhibits high accessibility, selectivity, and binding affinity toward I− ions, enabling superior iodine extraction from seawater and efficient iodide removal from ...

Transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity of saturated sedimentary rocks in the Hanford Reservation [PDF]
The sedimentary rocks of the Pasco Basin include glaciofluviatile deposits and the Ringold Formation. They may also include sedimentary rocks interbedded with the basalts. In terms of the ground-water flow continuum these rocks are divided into the unsaturated zone, the upper dominantly coarse-clastic part of the zone of saturation and the lower ...

Urban ponds and garden ponds—a specific subset of the former, usually located in private gardens—are both typical examples of ponds in the urban landscape. They deliver multiple ecosystem services but can also contribute to ecosystem disservices. The role of garden ponds is largely unknown compared to other urban ponds.

ABSTRACT In this study, we aimed to evaluate the genetic association between fertility traits, milk yield and the fat: protein ratio (FPR) on the test day in primiparous Holstein cows. The analysed traits were milk yield (TDMY) and FPR assessed on the test day, as well as the following fertility traits: period from calving to first service (CFS), days ...
