Sediment transport by runoff on debris-mantled dryland hillslopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hillslopes supply sediment to river channels, and therefore impact drainage basin functioning and evolution. The relationship between hillslope attributes and sediment flux forms the basis of geomorphic transport laws used to model the long-term ...

Can the Grain-for-Green Program Really Ensure a Low Sediment Load on the Chinese Loess Plateau?

open access: yesEngineering, 2019
The Chinese Loess Plateau is the most seriously eroded area in the world and contributes the vast majority of the sediment that goes into the Yellow River.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Hydrological factors influencing sediment concentration fluctuations in small drainage basins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
Although sediment concentrations measured in two contrasting streams in East Yorkshire fluctuate in response to similar hydrological factors, the effectiveness of these factors reflects the environmental characteristics of the drainage basins ...

Rapid Assessment of Intertidal Wetland Sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Urbanization of coastal areas poses a severe threat to ecologically valuable intertidal wetlands. This paper presents a pragmatic approach called Rapid Assessment for Intertidal Wetland Sediments (RAITWS) for evaluating the sediment quality of intertidal

A Gap-Filling Tool: Predicting Daily Sediment Loads Based on Sparse Measurements

open access: yesHydrology, 2022
Sediment load in streams is known as both a carrier and a potential source of contaminants, while sediment deposition can alter stream flow, stage and morphology, and thereby has broad impacts on stream hydrology, aquatic life, and recreation activity ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

Impacts of Climate Change and Human Activities on Runoff and Sediment Load of the Xiliugou Basin in the Upper Yellow River

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2015
Using data of temperature, wind, precipitation, water discharge, and sediment load, the changes in runoff and sediment load of the Xiliugou basin in the upper Yellow River were investigated and the contributions of climate change and human activities to ...

Calculation methods for sediment load and deposition volume in the Inner Mongolia reach of the Yellow River

open access: yesShui kexue jinzhan, 2015
Based on the basic sediment transport equation that reflects the characteristics of "more input,more output"for sediment-laden flow rivers,a general sediment transport expression was developed,which can take into account the effects of upstream sediment ...

Application of Sediment Runoff Model to the Wlingi Reservoir Watershed, Indonesia

open access: yesCivil and Environmental Science Journal, 2020
Sedimentation is the main problem in Wlingi reservoirs. They are suffering from severe watershed erosion and a heavy load of volcanic ash ejected from the eruption of Mount Kelud.
