Alternative approaches to dryland reclamation enhance vegetation cover and soil stability at a former uranium mine

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Conventional reclamation methods to recover dryland ecosystems after mineral extraction often have low success. Alternative reclamation techniques may help overcome the many challenges to establishing persistent native vegetation and stable soils.

Joint and Rapid Determination of 210Pb-210Bi-210Po in Rock, Soil and Sediment Samples by Constant Temperature Spontaneous Deposition on Cu-foil with Gross α and Gross β Counting

Yankuang ceshi, 2013
Measurement techniques of uranium series nuclides 210Pb, 210Bi and 210Po are relatively independent at present for most cases, and there are still some technical issues that need to be overcome.

Cyclic oxygen vacancy reconstruction in MnO2 polymorphs builds electron reservoirs to drive ionic charge redistribution for stepwise UO22 + reduction

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Effective uranium (UO22+) recovery from aqueous waste is vital for resource sustainability and environmental safety. Although oxygen vacancies enhance the redox activity of UO22+, their long–term stability and ability to regenerate remain unclear. Herein,

Natural Resources and Political Patronage in Africa: An Ethnicity Level Analysis

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the effect of resource discoveries on ethnicity‐level political patronage in Africa using a large geospatial dataset of 254 ethnic groups in 15 countries over the period 1960–2004. We find that the first (or single first) resource discovery in a virgin ethnic homeland increases the share of cabinet posts of that ethnicity.

Influence of Copper and Copper Oxides on Adsorption and Diffusion Behavior of Se(Ⅳ/Ⅵ) in Tamusu Clayrock

He huaxue yu fangshe huaxue
The Tamusu clayrock of Inner Mongolia is a significant candidate host rock for geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste in China. 79Se(Ⅳ) and 79Se(Ⅵ) are key concerns in the long-term safety assessment of repositories due to their relatively ...

Anti‐Astrotropik — Outer Space, Technology and Resistance in the Tropics

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
This paper traces an intellectual and geographical arc of thinking about outer space in the tropics, connecting Peter Redfield's Space in the Tropics: From Convicts to Rockets in French Guiana (2000), Sean T. Mitchell's Constellations of Inequality: Space, Race, and Utopia in Brazil (2017) and Asif Siddiqi's Cosmic Fragments: Dislocation and Discontent

Vacuum ultraviolet spectra of uranium hexafluoride/argon mixtures [PDF]

The transmission properties of room temperature helium at pressures up to 20 atmospheres were determined in the wavelength range from 80 to 300 nm. Similarly, the transmission properties of uranium hexafluoride at 393 K (pressures less than 1.0 mm) were ...
