Buoy Dynamics in Subsurface Zones

Spatial Distribution of Carbon in the Subsurface of Riparian Zones

A Buoy for Continuous Monitoring of Suspended Sediment Dynamics

Knowledge of Suspended Sediments Dynamics (SSD) across spatial scales is relevant for several fields of hydrology, such as eco-hydrological processes, the operation of hydrotechnical facilities and research on varved lake sediments as geoarchives. Understanding the connectivity of sediment flux between source areas in a catchment and sink areas in lakes or reservoirs is of primary importance to...

Subsurface nitrate reduction under wetlands takes place in narrow superficial zones.

This study aims to investigate the depth distribution of the Nitrate Reduction Potential (NRP) on a natural and a re-established wetland. The obtained NRP provides a valuable data of the driving factors affecting denitrification, the Dissimilatory Nitrate Reduction to Ammonium (DNRA) process and the performance of a re-established wetland. Intact soil cores were collected and divided in slices ...

Subsurface bonding of hydrogen in niobium: A molecular-dynamics study

Binding energy of hydrogen in a ~100! niobium slab is investigated through molecular-dynamics simulations. We introduce a hydrogen-niobium interaction potential that contains an attractive as well as a repulsive part, which is valid for surface-diffusion calculations. Simulations for high and low temperatures ~compared with uDebye! are presented. For the former case, we found that the hydrogen ...

Integrated Water and Nitrogen Fertilizer Management Using Modeling of System Dynamics Approach in Sugarcane Farmlands with Subsurface Drainage Systems

Using water and fertilizer management at the farm level can be increased water use efficiency and reduce the volume of drainage water, fertilizer losses, and other pollutants in farmland with deep underground drains such as Khuzestan agro-industrial Companies. In the present study, a comprehensive simulation model for the water cycle and the nitrogen dynamics modeling was used for water and fer...
