Drought is an important abiotic stress factor limiting crop productivity worldwide and its impact is increasing with climate change. Regardless of the plant growth period, drought has a deadly and yield-reducing effect on the plant at every stage of development. As with many environmental stressors, drought-exposed plants trigger a series of molecular, biochemical, and physiological responses to overcome the effect of drought stress. Currently, researchers are trying to determine the complex …

The contributions of urban blue and green spaces on urban cooling are widely acknowledged. However, the combined cooling effect of integrated blue and green space remains uncertain. In this study, a combination of modelling and observational analyses uncovered a win-win interaction between coexisting blue and green spaces in terms of urban cooling. That is, the integration of water bodies and green spaces can reinforce the mutual cooling potential and provide greater urban cooling than stand-…

Plants accumulate several metabolites in response to drought stress, including branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs). However, the roles of BCAAs in plant drought responses and the underlying molecular mechanisms for BCAA accumulation remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate that rice (Oryza sativa) DROUGHT-INDUCED BRANCHED-CHAIN AMINO ACID AMINOTRANSFERASE (OsDIAT) mediates the accumulation of BCAAs in rice in response to drought stress. An in vitro enzyme activity assay indicated that OsDIAT is a …

Abstract Temperate trees require low temperatures during winter and subsequent warm conditions in early spring to flower and eventually bear fruit. Many parts of the Mediterranean region feature winters with low and sometimes marginal chill accumulation. To assess historic and future agroclimatic conditions for cultivating temperate trees (including almonds, pistachios, apricots, sweet cherries and apples), we mapped winter chill throughout this important growing region. We used on-site weath…

Abstract. The Millennium Drought lasted more than a decade and is notable for causing persistent shifts in the relationship between rainfall and runoff in many southeastern Australian catchments. Research to date has successfully characterised where and when shifts occurred and explored relationships with potential drivers, but a convincing physical explanation for observed changes in catchment behaviour is still lacking. Originating from a large multi-disciplinary workshop, this paper presen…

were revealed that nitrate would be decomposed from DOM affected by intensive agricultural activities. In addition, consistent with the EMMA results, the molecular composition of the DOM was clearly evidenced by a large number of CHON formulas, accounting for over 50% of the total characterized compounds, including pesticides and pharmaceuticals used in agriculture farmland and livestock. Our results clearly demonstrated that EMMA based on combing multi-stable isotopes and spectroscopic indic…
Quantification of global Digital Elevation Model (DEM) – A case study of the newly released NASADEM for a river basin in Central Vietnam

Lai Giang River basin, Central Vietnam The Digital Elevation Models (DEM) is essential in hydrological modeling and water cycle understanding. There are several unanswered questions regarding the impact of DEM on the models’ quality of hydrological applications. This study develops a comprehensive framework for evaluating impacts of six global DEM products: MERIT, NASA, SRTM, ASTER GDEM2, AW3D30, and TanDEM-X using the semi-distributed model SWAT for the Lai Giang River basin, Central Vietnam…

Abstract Hypoxia in coastal waters and lakes is widely recognized as a detrimental environmental issue, yet we lack a comparable understanding of hypoxia in rivers. We investigated controls on hypoxia using 118 million paired observations of dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration and water temperature in over 125,000 locations in rivers from 93 countries. We found hypoxia (DO < 2 mg L −1 ) in 12.6% of all river sites across 53 countries, but no consistent trend in prevalence since 1950. High‐…

Conventional machine vision systems suffer from great data latency and energy consumption in cognitive tasks due to the separated vision sensors, memory units, and processors. In‐sensor computing based on optoelectronic synapses allows efficient computation by directly sensing and processing optical signals. Herein, an optoelectronic synapse based on Au/ZnO:N/IGZO/TiN structure is proposed. It shows uniform optical SET and electrical RESET behaviors, with various light‐tunable plasticity. Fur…

Insight into Water Occurrence and Pore Size Distribution by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance in Marine Shale Reservoirs, Southern China

Matched topics: reservoir
The exploitation of shale gas has been a hot topic, and the understanding of water occurrence and pore size distribution in shale reservoirs plays a crucial role in efficiently developing this type of resource. In this study, we target moderate-shallow marine shales from the Lower Cambrian Niutitang Formation and deep marine shales from the Lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance is applied to investigate the water occurrence and pore size distribution together…
Degradation of microcystin algal toxin by 3D printable polymer immobilized photocatalytic TiO2

Matched topics: surface water
Novel and sustainable solutions are needed for surface water treatment. Photocatalytic TiO2 is studied but is not directly deployable into natural water bodies due to settling and poor recoverability. This research capitalizes on a convergence of the emerging technologies of 3D printing biocompatible polymer (polylactic acid, PLA) composites, nanotechnology, and advanced oxidative processes to immobilize TiO2 into customizable, high surface area, deployable, and retrievable structures with lo…
