Hydrodynamic Process of Partial and en Masse Dam Failure Induced Debris Flows

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Because of landslides, seismic events, and/or unregulated human activities, a massive amount of loose solid materials are sometimes deposited at the confluence between the branch valley and stem stream, or blocked at the lateral channel contraction ...

Influence of salinity and water content on soil microorganisms

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2015
Salinization is one of the most serious land degradation problems facing world. Salinity results in poor plant growth and low soil microbial activity due to osmotic stress and toxic ions.

Metagenomic Approaches to Explore the Quorum Sensing-Mediated Interactions Between Algae and Bacteria in Sequence Membrane Photo-Bioreactors

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Algal–bacterial water treatment is more effective for better harvesting and promotes energy savings than other traditional treatments, while the relationships between them are multifarious.

Hydraulic and mechanical properties of glacial sediments beneath Unteraargletscher, Switzerland: implications for glacier basal motion [PDF]

, 2001
The force on a ‘ploughmeter’ and subglacial water pressure have been measured in the same borehole at Unteraargletscher, Switzerland, in order to investigate ice–sediment coupling and the motion at the base of a soft-bedded glacier.

Integrated biogeography of planktonic and sedimentary bacterial communities in the Yangtze River

Microbiome, 2018
Background Bacterial communities are essential to the biogeochemical cycle in riverine ecosystems. However, little is presently known about the integrated biogeography of planktonic and sedimentary bacterial communities in large rivers.

Controls on Cyclic Formation of Quaternary Early Diagenetic Dolomite

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
The origin of sedimentary dolomite and the factors that control its formation within the geological record remain speculative. In most models, dolomite formation is linked to evaporative conditions, high water temperature, increasing Mg/Ca ratio ...

Seismic characteristics of sediment drifts: An example from the Agulhas Plateau, southwest Indian Ocean [PDF]

, 2001
Sediment drifts provide information on the palaeoceanographic development of a region. Additionally, they may represent hydrocarbon reservoirs. Because of this, sediment drift investigation has increased over the last few years. Nevertheless, a number of

Sampling Strategies to Improve Passive Optical Remote Sensing of River Bathymetry

Remote Sensing, 2018
Passive optical remote sensing of river bathymetry involves establishing a relation between depth and reflectance that can be applied throughout an image to produce a depth map. Building upon the Optimal Band Ratio Analysis (OBRA) framework, we introduce
