It is challenging to perform spatial geochemical modelling due to the spatial heterogeneity features of geochemical variables. Meanwhile, high quality geochemical maps are needed for better environmental management. Soil organic C (SOC) distribution maps are required for improvements in soil management and for the estimation of C stocks at regional scales. This study investigates the use of a g...

Few studies have demonstrated changes in community structure along a contaminant plume in terms of phylogenetic, functional, and geochemical changes, and such studies are essential to understand how a microbial ecosystem responds to perturbations. Clonal libraries of multiple genes (SSU rDNA, nirK, nirS, amoA, pmoA, and dsrAB) were analyzed from groundwater samples (n = 6) that varied in contam...

and Vagners (1971, 1972) expressed this phenomenon elegantly by introducing the concept of "terminal mode" for the optimum grain size to which a mineral can be reduced, given the force and energy typically available in the glacial environment. Thus, hard, uncleaved or poorly cleaved minerals such as quartz, fcldspar, garnet, pyrite and magnetite dominate either the medium or the fine sand fract...

We construct anomaly free non-supersymmetric large N gauge theories from orientifolds of Type IIB on C/Γ orbifolds. In particular, massless as well as tachyonic one-loop tadpoles are cancelled in these models. This is achieved by starting with N = 1, 2 supersymmetric orientifolds with well defined worldsheet description and including discrete torsion (which breaks supersymmetry) in the orbifold...

The end-Permian extinction and its aftermath altered carbonate factories globally for millions of years, but impact on platform geometries remains poorly understood. Here, the evolution in architecture composition two exceptionally exposed platforms Nanpanjiang Basin are constrained compared with geochemical proxies to evaluate controls geometries. Geochemical indicate elevated siliciclastic nu...

Geochemical anomalies are geochemical features different from what is considered normal. They can be the result of: 1. unusual or uncommon processes concentrating particular elements (e.g. an ore-forming process, weathering and element dispersion from an unusual element concentration such as an orebody); 2. element accumulation or concentration by common processes acting over long periods (e.g....
