Application of diffusive gradient in thin films probes to monitor trace levels of labile methylmercury in freshwaters.

This study aimed to optimize the methods for sampling and analyzing methylmercury (MeHg) concentrated within diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) and its application to different water bodies. We explored the elution solution for MeHg, comprised of 1.13 mM thiourea and 0.

Long-term psychological outcome of patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis continuously treated with Dupilumab: Data up to 3 years.

Dupilumab effectiveness and safety in treating moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) have been demonstrated in open-label studies up to 4 years. Evidence about long-term psychological outcome is lacking. This study evaluates the long-term psychological outcome of moderate-to-severe AD patients continuously treated with Dupilumab up to 3 years.

A qualitative analysis of publicly available Standards and Guidance about Digital Literacies in U.S. States.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, schools had been adopting digital instruction in many parts of the world. The concept of digital literacies has also been evolving in complexity alongside the digital technologies that support it. However, little is known about what guidance available to support various levels of government in supporting digital literacies alongside digital instruction in local schools.

Impact of sulfur-impregnated biochar amendment on microbial communities and mercury methylation in contaminated sediment.

S-impregnation of biochar through elemental S streaming is known to increase its sorption performance against Hg and methyl mercury (MeHg). However, the effects of %S-loading on biochar's mechanism and sorption capacities for MeHg, and its consequent impact when used as an amendment material for Hg-contaminated sediments, are poorly understood, and thus, were investigated in this work. Our results showed that a minimum sulfur loading of 1% was the most effective in reducing MeHg levels in sediments.

Species-level tree crown maps improve predictions of tree recruit abundance in a tropical landscape.

Predicting forest recovery at landscape scales will aid forest restoration efforts. The first step in successful forest recovery is tree recruitment. Forecasts of tree recruit abundance, derived from the landscape-scale distribution of seed sources (i.
