Nitrogen Loss from Pristine Carbonate-Rock Aquifers of the Hainich Critical Zone Exploratory (Germany) Is Primarily Driven by Chemolithoautotrophic Anammox Processes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Despite the high relevance of anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) for nitrogen loss from marine systems, its relative importance compared to denitrification has less been studied in freshwater ecosystems, and our knowledge is especially scarce for ...

A Comparative Study on the Dynamic Tensile Strength Evaluation Method of Rock Materials

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2023
The representative calculation methods of dynamic tensile strength applied to the spalling test are comparatively reviewed in the same experimental cases. The results are compared with those of the ISRM suggested dynamic BD method.

The distribution of subsurface microplastics in the ocean

open access: yesNature
Marine plastic pollution is a global issue, with microplastics (1 µm–5 mm) dominating the measured plastic count1,2. Although microplastics can be found throughout the oceanic water column3,4, most studies collect microplastics from surface waters (less ...

An Ionic Limit to Life in the Deep Subsurface

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The physical and chemical factors that can limit or prevent microbial growth in the deep subsurface are not well defined. Brines from an evaporite sequence were sampled in the Boulby Mine, United Kingdom between 800 and 1300 m depth.

Characterizing Subsurface Structures From Hard and Soft Data With Multiple‐Condition Fusion Neural Network

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Accurately inferring realistic subsurface structures poses a considerable challenge due to the impact of morphology on flow and transport behaviors. Traditional subsurface characterization relies on two primary types of data: hard data, derived from ...

Habitability of Mars: How Welcoming Are the Surface and Subsurface to Life on the Red Planet?

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
Mars is a planet of great interest in the search for signatures of past or present life beyond Earth. The years of research, and more advanced instrumentation, have yielded a lot of evidence which may be considered by the scientific community as proof of

Mechanized and irrigated coffee cultivation promotes physical subsurface constraints in Oxisols [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
Soils of the Cerrados (Brazilian Savanna) are deep, well-structured, and well-drained, with flat to gently undulating terrain that favors mechanization for coffee cultivation. However, these soils are susceptible to compaction. This study aimed to assess

Microstructural Evolution and Vacancy Defect Formation in Mn–Mo–Ni RPV Steel Under Low Cycle Fatigue: Insights From EBSD and PALS

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐cycle fatigue damage in Mn–Mo–Ni reactor pressure vessel steel is examined using a combined electron backscatter diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy approach. The study correlates texture evolution, dislocation substructure development, and vacancy‐type defect formation across uniform, necked, and fracture regions, providing

Carbon utilization and storage through rehabilitation of groundwater wells

open access: yesScientific Reports
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of the United Nations (UN), rise in atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO $${_2}$$ 2 ) due to anthropogenic factors is considered as the primary driver for global climate change.

Subsurface Microbial Hydrogen Cycling: Natural Occurrence and Implications for Industry

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Hydrogen is a key energy source for subsurface microbial processes, particularly in subsurface environments with limited alternative electron donors, and environments that are not well connected to the surface.
