The global climate is showing altered temperatures and precipitation levels. Forests can be a stabilizing force in climate change. They regulate the nutrient cycle, protect species and diversity, and support livelihoods ...

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have long been a critical threat to environmental safety and health, especially in inland lakes with rapidly growing socioeconomic development. Although satellite remote sensing provides an ...

This study describes the spectral emissive character of silicate and carbonate minerals of aeolian deposits and maps the deposits and sand encroachments that occurred in and around the site 5/6 of Qatar Fertilizer Company ...

Hydrothermally altered minerals are invariably associated with base metal mineralization. The narrow spectral resolution of Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging spectrometer -Next Generation (AVIRIS-NG) facilitates the ...

The contradiction between ecological conservation and economic development posed significant challenges to the management of National Parks. From the perspective of Ecological Economics, the cause of the contradiction is ...

Aqueous solutions containing toxic elements (TEs) (such as hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) can be toxic to humans even at trace levels. Thus, removing TEs from the aqueous environment is essential for the protection of ...

The distribution and composition of wetland habitats for wintering waterbirds are heavily influenced by water level fluctuations. Through polder construction and aquaculture activities, paddy fields and aquaculture ponds ...

Soil is the incubator of human activities. Mapping of soil contaminants needs to be constantly updated. It is fragile in arid regions, especially if it accompanies dramatic and successive industrial and urban activities ...

Novel activated carbon (AC) composite materials, namely AC doped with aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and AC doped with Al2O3 and silver (Ag) nanoparticles, have been prepared via a one-step thermal decomposition method. The developed ...

We report the genome sequences of Escherichia phage C600M2 (length, 88,162 bp; G1C content, 38.98%) and Escherichia phage CL1 (length, 87,820 bp; G1C content, 41.32%), which were isolated from a wastewater treatment plant ...
