In Situ Profiling of Soil Water Content

open access: yes, 2018
Measuring the soil moisture is an essential task in precision agriculture and smart irrigation strategies. However, most of the available measurement instruments are expensive and are not suitable for use by traditional farmers with a low level of education.

Nanoscale Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry for Quantifying Membrane Fouling: Fouling Layer Structure and Chemical Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (Nano SIMS) is established as a powerful analytical tool to visualize and quantify the membrane fouling layers. ABSTRACT Membrane technology has garnered considerable attention for applications in wastewater treatment and resource recovery. Nevertheless, membrane fouling remains a major barrier, yet the lack of

Study on unconfined compressive strength and deformation characteristics of chlorine saline soil

open access: yesScientific Reports
The distribution of saline soil is wide and the area is large in China. The saline soil in different regions shows their own characteristics. The saline soil of single salt is configured by adding different contents of NaCl to the loess in Xi'an.

Persistence of Soil Water Repellency After the 2022 Bolt Creek Fire

open access: yesGeosciences
Wildfire ash and water-repellent soil are new materials that are formed after a wildfire that change the mechanical and hydraulic behavior of wildfire-burned slopes. Wildfire ash is known to be typically hydrophilic and to retain water, whereas the water-

A Worm‐Inspired Origami Robot with Multimodal Locomotion for Adaptive Mobility in Complex Pipeline Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An origami worm‐inspired robot achieves multimodal locomotion in confined pipelines through mechatronic integration that embeds actuation, control, and communication within each origami module. Large, reversible configuration and dimensional changes enable 25 gaits synthesized by a unified framework across peristaltic, inchworm, and wheel‐rolling modes

The water balance of two semi-arid shrubs on abandoned land in South-Eastern Spain after cold season rainfall. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The inland, mountainous marginal areas (land abandoned by farming and colonised by shrubs) of the Iberian Peninsular, Spain, generally receive a higher rainfall than the coastal areas (Lazaro and Rey, 1991) and may store water after cold season (autumn ...

Transposase‐Assisted Donor Tethering Boosts Large‐Fragment HDR in Plants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A transposase‐assisted donor tethering strategy is developed to enhance homology‐directed repair in plants. By recruiting donor DNA to double‐strand breaks and synergizing with repair pathway reprogramming and transcription‐coupled donor design, this system markedly improves large‐fragment targeted insertion efficiency, providing a robust platform for ...
