Estimation of soil properties by an artificial neural network

open access: yesMagazine of Civil Engineering, 2022
Empirical dependencies are often used in various fields of geotechnics and civil engineering. The existing empirical formulas are mainly developed with the use of regression and multiple regression.

Transcripts enriched in codons that trigger P‐site tRNA‐mediated mRNA decay possess stable mRNA

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
PTMD codons were first described by Mendel et al. as mediators of an mRNA decay pathway dependent on the human protein CNOT3, homologous to yeast Not5. Our findings confirm that PTMD codons destabilize transcripts; however, unlike in yeast, the human pathway specifically targets and slightly destabilizes primarily stable mRNAs.

Structural and biochemical insights into the thermostable esterase Ta0887 from Thermoplasma acidophilum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, a novel esterase from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum was biochemically and structurally characterized. Our results demonstrate that Ta0887 is a highly thermostable esterase that preferentially hydrolyzes p‐nitrophenyl hexanoate and possesses an α‐helical cap domain that likely contributes to its substrate ...

Analysis of Disinfection in Greenhouse Soils with Medium-Temperature Steam Produced by Solar Energy

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The soils of agricultural crops begin to suffer from arvenses and pathogens that are harmful to new crops after going through several production cycles. The chemical control of these pathogens is carried out through fumigants, which are applied at doses ...

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

Are soils in urban ecosystems compacted? A citywide analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Soil compaction adversely influences most terrestrial ecosystem services on which humans depend. This global problem, affecting over 68 million ha of agricultural land alone, is a major driver of soil erosion, increases flood frequency and reduces ...

Spatial Distribution of Soil Structural Stability Under Different Management and Use Systems in La Molina, Perú

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science
Soil degradation poses a threat to agricultural productivity and environmental sustainability. Intensive use, mechanical disturbances, and inappropriate practices deteriorate soil structure, reducing its water retention capacity, resistance to erosion ...

Pinpointing the Mechanism of Magnetic Enhancement in Modern Soils Using High‐Resolution Magnetic Field Imaging

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
In well‐buffered modern soils, higher annual rainfall is associated with enhanced soil ferrimagnetic mineral content, especially of ultrafine particles that result in distinctive rock magnetic properties. Hence, paleosol magnetism has been widely used as
