A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

Recent Advances and Perspectives on the Sources and Detection of Antibiotics in Aquatic Environments
Water quality and safety are vital to the ecological environment, social development, and ecological susceptibility. The extensive use and continuous discharge of antibiotics have caused serious water pollution; antibiotics are widely found in freshwater,

Light pollution and the concentration of anthropogenic photons in the terrestrial atmosphere [PDF]
Light pollution can be rigorously described in terms of the volume concentration of anthropogenic photons (light quanta) in the terrestrial atmosphere. This formulation, consistent with the basic physics of the emission, scattering and absorption of light, allows one to express light pollution levels in terms of particle volume concentrations, in a ...

Climate warming is recognized as a factor that threatens plant species in Mediterranean mountains. Tropospheric ozone (O3) should also be considered as another relevant stress factor for these ecosystems since current levels chronically exceed thresholds

Rapid adsorption of benzotriazole onto oxidized carbon cloth as an easily separable adsorbent
A commercial carbon cloth (CC) was oxidized by HNO3 acid and the features of the plain and oxidized CC were evaluated. The results of characterization illustrated that HNO3 oxidization duplicated the oxygen-containing functional groups and the surface ...

Pollution and Pollution Control [PDF]
Pollution - the very word brings to mind in each of us a variety of abuses that man has perpetrated on his fellow man. lie has fouled the air, polluted streams and lakes and made vast dumping grounds out of once scenic areas. Water is impossible to destroy.

Air pollution: the "classical" pollutants. [PDF]
Few disasters can have led to such great good as the four-day London "smog" of December 1952. Though its extreme concentrations of smoke and sulphur dioxide appear to have caused up to 4000 extra deaths,1 it provided the impetus for the Clean Air Act 1956.
