Direct Scouring of Greige Cotton Fabrics with Proteases

open access: yes, 2001
Our previous work demonstrated that proteases are effective scouring agents for boiling-water pretreated cotton fabrics. In this study, we investigate whether proteases are effective scouring agents when directly applied on raw greige cotton fabrics ...

An Iinvestigation into the Effect of Slot in Spur Dike on the Development of Scouring Around it in a 180-Degree Bend

open access: yesعلوم آب و خاک, 2018
In this study, the performance of slot in the spur dike was evaluated as a way to reduce the scouring around the installed flat spur dike in a 180 degree bend and the development of scouring in the slotted spur dike was compared with that of the spur ...

Study on Scouring Mechanism of Cross-shaped Artifical Reef

open access: yes, 1990
As nurseries for young flatfish, cross-shaped artificial reefs are made in shallow water so hollows can be made in the sand bed. The results are reported here on a scouring mechanism experiment in the wave using the cross-shaped model.

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.

The Application of Biosurfactants for Scouring Wool

open access: yes, 2015
A saponin and a recently developed surface active oat extract were evaluated in laboratory-scale scouring of raw wool. The levels of contaminants remaining on the wool after bio-scouring using saponin and oat extract, along with the colour, were compared

New Schmidt hammer exposure‐age dating calibrations for the Last Glacial Termination in NW Scotland: Development and application to undated Torridon Group sandstone surfaces in Wester Ross

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An understanding of the terrestrial extent, retreat dynamics and climate–glacier coupling of ice masses during the Last Glacial Termination (LGT, ~18–11 ka) is often limited by a fragmentary geomorphological record and is dependent on precise, accurate and robust dating frameworks.

Dopamine‐Deficiency‐Related Reorganization of the Somatomotor Network in Prodromal and Early Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Network attack tolerance (NAT) measures the brain's ability to sustain information flow despite the loss of critical brain regions. In Parkinson's disease (PD), NAT has been linked to cognitive and motor function. However, it remains unclear how dopaminergic degeneration shapes NAT, and whether it relates to motor symptom ...

Using participatory scenario planning to explore the synergies and trade‐offs from upland treescape expansion

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The future of land use in the UK uplands is highly debated, with growing interest in increasing tree cover and other land use changes, alongside a desire to maintain traditional land use patterns and practices. Treescape expansion is likely to result in synergies and trade‐offs between different outcomes, so integrating stakeholder preferences
