With the rapid development of the transgenic biotechnology, more and more transgenic plants have been poured into the market, and scientists have paid much attention to transgenic plants' ecological safety. To analysize the content of organic matter and total nitrogen in rhizosphere of transgenic cottons and their parents, the dried soil were scanned by continuous wave of near infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy ranging from 12,000 to 4 000 cm(-1) with a resolution of 4 cm(-1) and scanning for 64 times. Bruker OPUS software was applied for quantification. This method was compared with the standard methods. The results showed that the precision of NIRS was very similar to the standard methods. On the other hand, the results also showed that the contents of organic matter and total nitrogen in rhizosphere soil of transgenic cottons were significantly higher than those of their parents, which could arise from the foreign toxin secretion of root.

Previous estimates of deep soil inorganic nitrogen (N) reservoirs have been mainly limited to desert soils, however, recent evidence suggests that deep soil pools are far more ubiquitous across biomes and therefore may be important for global N budgets. Here, we used observations from 280 deep soil profiles (2-205 m) across a wide array of ecosystem and land cover types to seek insight into the full geospatial variation of deep soil nitrate. Using a random forest machine learning approach we estimate a total deep soil nitrate pool of 15.

Advanced treatment of first flush roof runoff via a dry-wet polymorphic constructed wetland system: Performance and mechanistic insights.

Environ Res

January 2025

Key Lab of Northwest Water Resource, Environment, and Ecology, Ministry of Education, Xi'an University of Architecture and Technology, Xi'an 710055 China; School of Environmental and Municipal Engineering, Xi'an University of Architecture and Technology, Xi'an 710055 China.

Controlling runoff pollution is crucial to improving ecological environments in the context of urbanization and climate change. However, a significant research gap remains in the treatment and reuse of roof runoff, particularly during the first flush. To address this, a novel dry-wet polymorphic constructed wetland (DWP-CW) system was developed to purify first flush runoff efficiently and reliably.

Estuarine ecosystems have been threatened by increasing anthropogenic and natural pressures, yet the integral understanding of their stability characteristics of microbial communities at taxonomic, habitat, and spatial scales remains limited. In this study, the Mulan River estuary in southeastern China was selected to compare the stability characteristics of bacterial and protistan communities in water and sediments over three hydrological periods, and to explore their spatial variations along the estuarine continuum from river to ocean. The potential driving mechanisms of stability characteristics were also explored.

Department of Environment Sciences and Engineering, The Gillings School of Global Public Health, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 166 Rosenau, Campus Box # 7431, NC 27599, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA. Electronic address:

Greywater, originating from kitchen sinks and toilets, constitutes 75-80 % of the domestic wastewater produced in homes and can be reclaimed for non-potable uses. This study synthesized novel sludge-derived aluminosilicates and alginate-polyethyleneimine (PEI) biochar composites. The aluminosilicates offer a sustainable approach to sludge management, while alginate-polyethyleneimine presents a green biochar modification approach.
