The equilibrium phosphate concentration (EPC0) of the Yellow River bed sediments has been measured, which was used to predict whether bed sediments are acting as a source or sink of soluble reactive phosphate (SRP). The modified Langmuir isotherm equation was used to describe phosphate (P) sorption on the Yellow River sediments. The maximum P sorption capacity (PAC) and P-binding energy constant (k) were obtained by the modified Langmuir isotherm model. Native adsorbed exchangeable phosphorus (NAP), the EPC0, and partitioning coefficients (Kp) were subsequently calculated by the corresponding formulae. The influence of pH values and ion strength were evaluated. All the EPC0 s are higher than the P concentration in the overlying water, indicating a potential source of phosphate from the sediments. PAC is linearly related to the contents of TOC of the sediment. The sorption capacity of P increased rapidly with pH below 6.0, and then reached a plateau between pH 6.0 to 9.7, and finally maintained at a slightly higher level from pH 9.7 to 12.0.The adsorption of P by the sediment decreased with the increase in Ca2+ ionic strength.

Owing to critical policy significance, a growing body of literature has been predominantly concentrating on the social welfare benefits brought by green finance (GF) initiatives. However, there is a paucity of research that quantifies the economic costs of GF initiatives on carbon reduction, raising the increasing concerns about the irreconcilable climate-economy trade-offs. To end this, the present study systematically investigates the influence of GF initiatives on the carbon-related marginal abatement cost (MAC) using two competing hypotheses: regulatory versus technical effects.

The partitioning and migrating of antibiotic residues pose a considerable pollution to the river environment. However, a source-specific approach for quantifying the fate of antibiotics is lacking. To further elucidate the migration behavior of antibiotics from different pollution sources in aquatic environments, we introduced a source-specific partition coefficient (S-Kp) based on Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) model to improve the multimedia model.

Leaves and roots perform assimilation, supporting plant growth and functionality. The variations in their functional traits reflect adaptive responses to environmental conditions, yet limited information is available regarding these trait variations and their coordination in saline environments. In this study, 18 common woody and herbaceous halophyte species from the Yellow River Delta were collected, and their leaf and root functional traits were assessed and compared.

Polyurethane (PU) grouting materials are widely used in underground engineering rehabilitation, particularly in reinforcement and waterproofing engineering in deep-water environments. The long-term effect of complex underground environments can lead to nanochannel formation within PU, weakening its repair remediation effect. However, the permeation behavior and microscopic mechanisms of water molecules within PU nanochannels remain unclear.
