Nutrient and Microbial Transport from Feedlot Surfaces
Nutrient and microbial transport by runoff may vary at different locations within a beef cattle feedlot. If the areas making the largest contributions to nutrient and microbial transport can be identified, it may be possible to institute site-specific management practices to reduce runoff nutrient and microbial transport. The objectives of this study were to: a) measure selected feedlot soil pr...
متن کاملFlow Induced by Bacterial Carpets and Transport of Microscale Loads
Microfluidics devices carry very small volumes of liquid though channels and have been used in many biological applications including drug discovery and development. In many microfluidic experiments, it would be useful to mix the fluid within the chamber. However, the traditional methods of mixing and pumping at large length scales don't work at small length scales. Recent experimental work has...
متن کاملMixing and transport by ciliary carpets: a numerical study
We use a 3D computational model to study the fluid transport and mixing due to the beating of an infinite array of cilia. In accord with recent experiments, we observe two distinct regions: a fluid transport region above the cilia and a fluid mixing region below the cilia tip. The metachronal wave due to phase differences between neighboring cilia is known to enhance the fluid transport above t...
متن کاملSpatial Variations in Nutrient and Microbial Transport from Feedlot Surfaces
Nutrient and microbial transport by runoff may vary at different locations within a beef cattle feedlot. If the areas making the largest contributions to nutrient and microbial transport can be identified, it may be possible to institute site‐specific management practices to reduce runoff nutrient and microbial transport. The objectives of this study were to: (1) measure selected feedlot soil p...
متن کاملKinetics of nutrient-limited transport and microbial growth.
INTRODUCTION Nutrient-limited growth is the usual state for most microorganisms of the environment. In aquatic systems, nutrients are usually absorbed until concentrations decrease to levels that are sufficient for the growth of only those organisms with good transport systems, or ones that can grow very slowly. Many terrestrial systems are also restricted by nutrient concentrations, because mu...
