Composition of Cultivatable Methylotrophic Communities through a Soil Depth Profile
ABSTACT: Methylotrophy is the ability of microorganisms to utilize single carbon compounds such as methanol (CH3OH), the second most abundant organic compound in the atmosphere. Methylotrophs have been recognized as the main drivers of methane fluxes, but their role with methanol fluxes have been overlooked. Understanding methanol degraders such as methylotrophs can help better our understandin...
متن کاملSoil gas measurements below foundation depth improve indoor radon prediction.
A soil gas measurement method developed earlier, [Nucl Tracks Radiat Meas, 22(1-4) (1993) 468] was applied to boreholes drilled to below foundation depth. Radon concentration and permeability were measured at 50-cm intervals. In radon prone areas, permeability showed an increase with depth over several orders of magnitude, indicating a low permeability top layer with a thickness of 0.5 m and mo...
متن کاملA Numerical Modeling Study for Determining the Optimal Depth of Grout Curtain in Foundation and Abutments of Karun 4 Dam
Some experimental relations have been developed for determining the grout curtain depth, but these relations cannot be applied to any dam with any geological condition. Therefore, the effect of the grout curtain depth on seepage through foundation and abutments of each dam should be studied separately. To examine this parameter in Karun 4 dam, the numerical modeling method was applied using FLA...
متن کاملOptimum soil frost depth to alleviate climate change effects in cold region agriculture
On-farm soil frost control has been used for the management of volunteer potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.), a serious weed problem caused by climate change, in northern Japan. Deep soil frost penetration is necessary for the effective eradication of unharvested small potato tubers; however, this process can delay soil thaw and increase soil wetting in spring, thereby delaying agricultural activit...
