Composted Sewage Sludge Influences the Microbiome and Persistence of Human Pathogens in Soil

Microorganisms, 2020
Composted sewage sludge (CSS) gained attention as a potential fertilizer in agriculture. Application of CSS increases soil microbial activity and microbial biomass, however, it can also lead to increased chemical and microbiological risks. In this study,

Long Term Persistence of Parathion in Soil [PDF]

Nature, 1971
PARATHION, an early organophosphorus insecticide introduced commercially in 1947, is, like most other compounds in this group, considered to be relatively non-persistent on plants and in soil. West1 reported its persistence to be 5–12 days on plants, and Lichtenstein2 showed that 97% of a soil application disappeared within three months.

Engineering Intraframework Energy Transfer in Metal‐Organic Frameworks for Luminescent Discrimination of Bisphenol Pollutants

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A family of isostructural lanthanide metal–organic frameworks serves as a model platform to disentangle metal‐to‐metal and linker‐to‐linker energy transfer during luminescence sensing. The results reveal that rigid lanthanide energy migration governs sensing performance, whereas linker‐mediated pathways exert only minor effects, providing mechanistic ...

Persistence and Viability of Lecanicillium lecanii in Chinese Agricultural Soil.

PLoS ONE, 2015
The entomopathogenic fungus L. lecanii has been developed as biopesticides and used widely for biological control of several insects in agricultural practice. Due to the lack of isolation/count methods for L.

Pyrogenic Carbon Lacks Long-Term Persistence in Temperate Arable Soils

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2017
Pyrogenic organic carbon (PyOC) derived from incomplete burning of biomass is considered the most persistent fraction of soil organic carbon (SOC), being expected to remain in soil for centuries.

Assessing the soil moisture-precipitation feedback in Australia: CYGNSS observations

Environmental Research Letters, 2023
Previous modelling and case studies highlight the impacts of antecedent soil moisture on precipitation, showing the connection between the anomalous land surface and atmospheric conditions.

How soil pH affects the activity and persistence of herbicides [PDF]

, 2015
Decreasing soil pH, also called soil acidification, is a growing concern in eastern Washington and northern Idaho. Researchers and farmers have measured soil pH values below 5.0 throughout the Palouse region, in particular. Decreasing soil pH has serious

Leaftronics: Bio‐Fractal Scaffolds From Leaf Venation for Low‐Waste Electronics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
“Leaftronics” transforms naturally evolved leaf venation into quasi‐fractal scaffolds for sustainable electronics. Polymer‐infiltrated leaf skeletons can be used to fabricate ultra‐smooth, reflow‐ and thin‐film‐compatible decomposable substrates, while making the same lignocellulose networks conducting results in flexible transparent electrodes.

Soil Moisture Persistence and Integrated Drought-State Variability in a Semi-Arid Andean Region

Hydrology
Drought persistence and delayed recovery remain major challenges for drought monitoring in semi-arid environments, where precipitation variability interacts with slowly evolving land-surface conditions. Although precipitation-based indicators effectively
