Article Abstract

In the present paper, ten aqueous samples which contain-different concentrations of REE were collected in south Jiangxi province, and the reflectance spectra and the concentrations of REE were measured by analytical spectral devices (ASD) FieldSpec-3 reflectance spectroscopy and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), respectively. The results show that the spectra presented mix characteristics of pure water and rare earth oxide. In addition, six diagnostic absorption features caused by REE in visible and near-infrared wavelengths were detected. Then, relative absorption depths of the six absorption wavelength were calculated by the ratio spectra of sample spectra and pure water spectra. Finally, concentrations of total REE of ten samples and relative absorption depths of the six absorption wavelength were selected as two factors, and their relationship was perfectly described using linear regression analysis in which correlation coefficient was up to 96%-97%. The study provides a new method for quantitative estimation of different concentrations of dissolved REE in aqueous media, and strengthens theoretical basis for hyperspectral information extraction of REE.

Populations of the acidophilic purple nonsulfur bacterium were identified in two geographically distinct thermal areas in Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming, USA), as confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and detection of characteristic methoxylated ketocarotenoids. Microcosm-based carbon uptake assays where oxygenic photosynthesis was excluded via addition of 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea yielded a light-driven dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) assimilation rate (7 ± 2 mg C g C h) comparable to those of highly productive algal mats in acidic hot springs, suggesting that may be performing photoautotrophy at the time of the assay. Rates of acetate assimilation were more than two orders of magnitude lower than DIC assimilation and did not differ between light and dark treatments, indicating photoheterotrophic use of acetate was not occurring, though photoheterotrophic assimilation of other organic compounds cannot be excluded.

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) technology enables the flexible fabrication of integrated monolithic microextraction chips for high-throughput sample pretreatment. Meanwhile, the extraction performance of 3DP-based channels is largely limited by printer resolution and the commercially available printing materials. In this work, a 3DP array monolithic microextraction chip (AMC) was fabricated by integrating 26-array helical monolithic microextraction channels for sample pretreatment and 52-array gas valves for fluid control.

Background: High-resolution and high-sensitivity small-animal positron emission tomography (PET) scanners are essential non-invasive functional imaging tools in preclinical research. To develop small-animal PET scanners with uniform and high spatial resolution across the field-of-view, PET detectors capable of providing good depth-of-interaction (DOI) information are critical. Dual-ended readout detectors based on lutetium-yttrium oxyorthosilicate (LYSO) arrays with fine pitch represent a promising approach, wherein the choice of inter-crystal reflector significantly impacts the detector performance.

Herein, organic/inorganic multiple adsorption sites were constructed on halloysite to intensify the selective adsorption performance of the adsorbent for Al(III) in rare earth solutions. The adsorption heat behavior and thermodynamics of the composite for different ion systems were investigated using microcalorimetry. The results showed that chitosan formed a mesoporous membrane on the acid-treated calcined halloysite (HalH) substrate through a strong electron interaction between the nitrogen atom of the amino group and the oxygen atom of SiO structure on HalH.

Evolutionary consequences of extreme climate events.

Extreme climate events, such as storms, droughts or cold waves, wreak havoc on human and natural systems, but they can also catalyze rapid evolutionary change. Because such extreme events have historically been rare and difficult to forecast, studies of their biological impacts have mostly been serendipitous, limiting our understanding of their evolutionary consequences. However, with extreme climate events now increasing in frequency and severity due to human-induced global change, the opportunity - and need - to study their evolutionary consequences has grown.
