Lake Constance is the third largest lake in Central Europe. The river Rhine, which passes the lake, imports a significant amount of mineralic particles. Their transport and sedimentation within the lake is of importance for a number of applications, for example ship traffic, pumping stations for extraction of drinking water, hydraulic engineering, fishery, and ecology. Only satellites offer a c...

Histosols (also known as organic soils, mucks, or peats) are soils that are dominated by organic matter (OM > 20%) in half or more of the upper 80 cm. Forty two states have a total of 21 million ha of Histosols in the United States. These soils, when intensively cropped, are subject to wind erosion resulting in loss of crop productivity and degradation of soil, air, and water quality. Estimatin...

Flocculation has an important impact on particle trapping in estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM) through associated increases in particle settling velocity. To quantify the importance of the flocculation processes, a size-resolved flocculation model is implemented into an ocean circulation model to simulate fine-grained particle trapping in an ETM. The model resolves the particle size from robust...

the quality of wastewater generated in any process industry is generally indicated by performance itrace metals in the aquatic environment have to date come essentially from naturally occurring geochemical resources. however, this has been enhanced by anthropogenic activities resulting in pollution. consequently, correlations and partitioning of trace metals in the dissolved phase, suspended pa...

Particulate matter is a natural part of the atmosphere, where the solid or liquid particles are suspended in the air. These suspended particles, also known as suspended particulate matter represents a dispersion aerosol system. In the air there are many types of microscopic airborne particles originated from both natural and anthropogenic processes, such as atmospheric clouds of water droplets,...

Brownian Dynamics simulations are an important tool for modeling the dynamics of soft matter. However, accurate and rapid computations of the hydrodynamic interactions between suspended, microscopic components in a soft material are a significant computational challenge. Here, we present a new method for Brownian dynamics simulations of suspended colloidal scale particles such as colloids, poly...

We used 49,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining and fluorescent in situ hybridization to examine total bacterioplankton and archaeal distributions in surface waters and in deeper nepheloid layers and particle-poor waters across the Beaufort Shelf of the Canadian Arctic, including the Mackenzie River and Kugmallit Bay, as well as more distant Franklin Bay. Although the regional distributio...

Abstract. From 2017 to 2019, an extensive sampling campaign was conducted in Belgian inland and coastal waters, aimed at providing paired data of optical biogeochemical properties support research into monitoring aquatic systems. The focused on with four lakes a lagoon during the growth season, addition samples opportunity from other lakes. Campaigns also included Scheldt estuary over tidal cyc...

The development of particle-enriched regions (bed-load) at the base of particle-laden gravity currents has been widely observed, yet the controls and relative partitioning of material into the bed-load is poorly understood. We examine particle-laden gravity currents whose initial mixture (particle and fluid) density is greater than the ambient fluid, but whose interstitial fluid density is less...
