Here, we present the whole-genome sequence of an environmental Gram-negative Alishewanella aestuarii strain (HH-ZS), isolated from the hyperalkaline contaminated soil of a historical lime kiln in Buxton, United Kingdom.

Synthetic high polymer flocculants, frequently utilized for flocculating efficiency and low cost, recently have been discovered as producing increased risk to human health and the environment. Development of a more efficient and environmentally sound alternative flocculant agent is investigated in this paper. Bioflocculants are produced by microorganisms and may exhibit a high rate of flocculat...

Water use of plants can be manifested in diurnal signal of soil moisture changes, and also of water table fluctuations in shallow water table environments. The signal can be especially strong in case of groundwater dependent forest vegetation with high water demand, where the water uptake is partly happening across the capillary zone. A new technique for water uptake estimation was elaborated o...

– A layer of sand of thickness h flows down a rough surface if the inclination is larger than some threshold value θstart which decreases with h. A tentative microscopic model for the dependence of θstart with h is proposed for rigid frictional grains, based on the following hypothesis: (i) a horizontal layer of sand has some coordination z larger than a critical value zc where mechanical stabi...

Abstract. Landfast ice (LFI) plays a crucial role for both the climate and ecosystem of Antarctic coastal regions. We investigate snow LFI mass balance in Prydz Bay using observations from 11 sea buoys (IMBs). The were deployed offshore Chinese Zhongshan Station (ZS) Australian Davis (DS), with measurements covering seasons 2009–2010, 2013–2016, 2018. observed annual maximum thickness depth 1.5...

Zirconium sulfate (ZS) has become one of the alternative chemical compounds for substituting traditional tannery substances using chromium(III) which was not environmentally friendly. The purpose this research to synthesize ZS from ZrO(OH)2 H2SO4 with low Technologically Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (TENORM) content. This synthesis process shortened old processing flow at plenty rea...
