Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) frequently triggers nitrous oxide (NO) emissions from paddy fields, while the inhibitory effect of 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) on NO under various water managements remains uncertain. Here, we evaluated the effects of DMPP on NO emissions and associated biological indicators under three water managements: continuous flooding (CF), mild AWD (Mi-AWD), and moderate AWD (Mo-AWD). The Mi-AWD and Mo-AWD practices increased NO emissions by 2- and 0.9-fold compared to the CF treatment, respectively, due to enhanced oxygen availability, facilitating coupled nitrification-denitrification. DMPP application notably reduced NO emissions in the AWD treatments, attributed to the reductions in nitrifier abundances, nitrification rates, and nitrate accumulation. Nevertheless, DMPP failed to suppress nitrification and, thereby, NO emissions in the CF treatment. Overall, DMPP effectively mitigates NO emissions under oxygen-rich AWD rather than anaerobic CF conditions, highlighting that the trade-offs between water-saving irrigation and NO mitigation can be overcome via nitrification inhibitors application.

A multi-indicator framework was developed to resolve multi-source pollution in highly urbanized rivers, demonstrated in the Qinhuai River Basin, Nanjing, China. Water quality index (WQI) stratification was integrated with dissolved organic matter (DOM) fluorescence components, hydrochemical ions, and conventional parameters and analyzed using positive matrix factorization (PMF). Correlation analysis further elucidated source compositions and interactions.

The potential of PM to cause lung cancer has been well established; however, evidence regarding which specific components are responsible remains limited. We investigated dissolved organic matter (DOM) in PM using high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and cellular DNA damage assays to elucidate molecular composition and sources of carcinogenic components. Our analysis revealed hundreds of genotoxic compounds, with condensed aromatic amines predominating in number, abundance, and contribution to overall genotoxicity.

Introduction: This study aims to provide a comprehensive review of the application of eye-tracking technology in construction safety, establishing a theoretical foundation and benchmark to guide future research and innovation in the field.
Method: This study identified 116 relevant papers published between 2003 and 2023 indexed by Web of Science (WoS), Scopus, and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) Library. The analysis of the 116 papers revealed trends about the dates of the publication of the papers, the locations of the research, the journals and conference proceedings that published the studies, and the extent of the collaboration between authors, which indicate that eye-tracking technology has become an important tool to enhance construction safety.

Objectives: Increasing physical activity and effectively managing stress can positively impact immunity and may reduce the duration of respiratory tract infections (RTIs). As part of a larger trial, participants accessed a digital behavioural change intervention that encouraged physical activity and stress management to reduce RTIs. We aimed to understand the barriers and facilitators to engaging in physical activity and stress reduction.
