Global warming accelerates water cycle with features of regional difference. However, little is known about the physical mechanism behind the phenomenon. To reveal the links between water cycle and climatic environment, we analyzed the changes of water cycle elements and their relationships with climatic and environmental factors. We found that when global warming was significant during the period of 1986-2003, the precipitation in Tarim mountains as well as Xinjiang increased rapidly except for Tarim plains, which indicated that there existed a signal of acceleration for water cycle in Xinjiang. The speed of water cycle is mainly affected by altitude, latitude, longitude, slope direction, and the most fundamental element is temperature. Moreover, according to Clausius-Kela Bai Lung relation, we found that the climate change induced the increase of temperature and accelerated the local water cycle only for the wet places. Our results provide a possible physical mechanisms of water cycle and thus well link the climate change to water circulation.

Peroxydisulfate (PDS) activation is a crucial process for wastewater treatment in complicated water matrices. However, it is frequently limited because of poor selectivity, sluggish kinetics, and short lifetime of radicals. Therefore, in this study, an efficient sulfur-doped CN/DyFeO (SCN/DyF) Z-scheme heterostructure catalyst was rationally developed using a simple wet-chemical strategy to photoactivate PDS, which can effectively degrade norfloxacin (NOR; 96.

Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, a pathogenic ciliate, is a crucial pathogen of freshwater fish and can result in severe economic loss in the aquaculture industry worldwide. It is necessary to develop a sensitive and accurate method for detecting I. multifiliis in farming environments and fish skin and gills to protect fishes from infection of the parasite due to a lack of both safe and effective treatment drugs.

is a novel bacterial phylum proposed based on hot spring metagenomes and public metagenome-assembled genomes, classified within the -- superphylum. This globally distributed phylum consists of one class and five orders, with the majority of its members being facultative anaerobes. Notably, the order utilizes hydrogen as an electron donor for carbon fixation through the Calvin Benson Bassham cycle.

Characterizing deep subsurface microbial communities informs our understanding of Earth's biogeochemistry as well as the search for life beyond the Earth. Here we characterized microbial communities within the Kidd Creek Observatory subsurface fracture water system with mean residence times of hundreds of millions to over one billion years. 16S rRNA analysis revealed that biosamplers well isolated from the mine environment were dominated by a putatively anaerobic and halophilic bacterial species from the family, Frackibacter.
