Acetate Activates Deep Subsurface Fracture Fluid Microbial Communities in Olkiluoto, Finland
Geosciences, 2018 Crystalline bedrock has been chosen for deep geologic long-term storage of used nuclear fuel in Finland. The risks generated by the deep subsurface microbial communities in these disposal sites need to be well characterised in advance to ensure safety ...

Does nitrate deposition following astrophysical ionizing radiation events pose an additional threat to amphibians? [PDF]
Astrobiology, vol. 8, no. 4, 2008, 2008 It is known that amphibians are especially susceptible to the combination of heightened UVB radiation and increased nitrate concentrations. Various astrophysical events have been suggested as sources of ionizing radiation that could pose a threat to life on Earth, through destruction of the ozone layer and subsequent increase in UVB, followed by ...

Isoform-Specific NO Synthesis by Arabidopsis thaliana Nitrate Reductase
Plants, 2019 Nitrate reductase (NR) is important for higher land plants, as it catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the nitrate assimilation pathway, the two-electron reduction of nitrate to nitrite.

The Relationship Between Groundwater Nitrate Pollution and Crime in United States: Nitrate-Crime Hypothesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Groundwater is a crucial source of drinking water, but it is often contaminated with water-soluble pollutants that can pose significant health risks. Among these pollutants, nitrate has been extensively studied and found to be harmful to human health in high concentrations.

Calcium Rubidium Nitrate: Mode-Coupling $β$ Scaling without Factorization [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 64, 021303 (2001), 2001 The fast dynamics of viscous calcium rubidium nitrate is investigated by depolarized light scattering, neutron scattering and dielectric loss. Fast $\beta$ relaxation evolves as in calcium potassium nitrate. The dynamic susceptibilities can be described by the asymptotic scaling law of mode-coupling theory with a shape parameter $\lambda = 0.79$; the ...

Efficiency of microalgae cultures for nutrient removal from domestic wastewater [PDF]
Advances in Environmental Technology, 2022 Domestic wastewaters are one of the main sources of contamination and diseases. However, they can be treated and potentially reused if certain organic and inorganic compounds and molecules are eliminated.
