Indeed, during the outbreaks the ratio between lignin and carbohydrates significantly increased in fibre but not vessel cell walls due to an increase in lignin content coupled with a reduced content of carbohydrates. Parenchyma cell walls and cell corners did not show any significant changes in the cell-wall biopolymer content. The selective adjustment of the cell-wall composition of fibres but not vessels under stressful conditions could be related to the plants priority to maintain an efficient hydraulic system rather than mechanical support. However, the higher lignin content of fibre cell walls formed during the outbreak events could increase mechanical stiffness to the thin walls by optimizing the available resources. Chemical analysis of xylem traits with Raman imaging is a promising approach to highlight hidden effects of defoliation otherwise overlooked with classical dendroecological methods.In this study, the degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in wastewater was investigated using UV-based sulfate radical advanced oxidation processes (SR-AOP) and UV-based advanced reduction processes (ARP). More specifically, a comparison of the UV-based persulfate advanced oxidation process (the UV/PS process) and the UV-based sulfite advanced reduction process (the UV/sulfite process) was made. Considering the UV-based SR-AOPs, the UV/PS process was much more efficient than the UV-based peroxymonosulfate advanced oxidation process (the UV/PMS process), with pseudo first order reaction rate constants (kobs) of 0.752 and 0.145 min-1, respectively. For the UV-based ARPs, the UV/sulfite process was the most efficient, compared to the UV/sulfide and the UV/dithionite process (kobs of 0.269, 0.0157 and 0.0329 min-1, respectively). The optimal process parameters for both the UV/PS and the UV/sulfite process were determined and the contribution of the produced reactive species were identified. selleck compound For the UV/PS process, maximal CIP degradation was found at pH 8, and both OH and SO4- were responsible for CIP degradation. For the UV/sulfite process, H and eaq- were responsible for CIP degradation, with eaq- being the predominant radical at pH 8.5. Although CIP degradation was much faster for the UV/PS process, the UV/sulfite process was determined to be much more efficient in the defluorination of CIP.This paper addresses the behaviour of several technology critical metals (TCMs), i.e., rare earth elements (REEs), Y, Sc, Ga and Tl, in the Tinto River (SW Spain), quantifying their fluxes to the Atlantic Ocean and unravelling the governing geochemical processes controlling their solubility. To accomplish this goal, a high-resolution (2-24 h) sampling was performed during the hydrological year 2017/18. Mean dissolved concentrations of 380 μg/L of REE, 99 μg/L of Y, 15 μg/L of Sc, 9.2 μg/L of Ga and 4.8 μg/L of Tl were found. Most TCMs followed a behaviour similar to that of sulphate and base metals throughout the year, exhibiting a quasi-conservative behaviour due to acidic conditions. However, dissolved Tl concentrations seem to be strongly controlled by Tl incorporation onto secondary minerals and diatoms deposited on the riverbed, especially during the dry season. The remobilization of riverbed sediments led to the transport of significant amounts of TCMs associated with particulate matter, especially Al oxy-hydroxy-sulphates or Al-silicates rather than Fe precipitates (except for Tl and Ga). Around 5.8 t of REE, 1.3 t of Y, 248 kg of Sc, 139 kg of Ga and 138 kg of Tl were delivered annually in their dissolved forms by the Tinto River to the Atlantic Ocean, which constitutes around 0.09% of the dissolved global flux into the oceans of Y, 0.02% of the REE flux, 0.01% of the Ga flux and 0.001% of the Sc flux.Rice cultivation is the primary source of anthropogenic methane (CH4), which dramatically impacts global climate change. A growing body of evidence shows that optimizing photosynthate distribution is important for increasing rice yields and mitigating CH4 emissions. Therefore, the molecular rice breeding with a barley HvSUSIBA2 gene that confers elevated photosynthate flux to grains, is predicted to enhance rice yield and mitigate CH4 emissions in paddies. Here, in a series of field experiments with differences in growing season and rice variety, we show that SUSIBA2 rice reduced CH4 emissions from paddies. SUSIBA2 rice grown in the early rice season and late rice season showed similar mitigation effects, with reduction rates of 50.98% for early rice and 50.97% for late rice. The reduction rate of SUSIBA2 rice during the winter rice season was significantly lower (22.26%) than those of other rice seasons. The reduction rates also varied between rice varieties, and SUSIBA2 japonica rice showed a more significant CH4 mitigation effect than SUSIBA2 indica rice. Further yield-scaled CH4 emission analyses indicated that the SUSIBA2 effect did not mitigate CH4 emissions at the expense of yield. Compared with the wild type, SUSIBA2 rice significantly reduced soil organic carbon properties and the abundance of CH4-related microbes, and altered methanogenic and methanotrophic communities, indicating that SUSIBA2 rice released less carbon to the soil, which reduced CH4 production. Furthermore, a comparison of microbial communities between SUSIBA2 japonica and indica rice revealed different responses of methanogenic and methanotrophic communities, which may partly explain their differences in growth performance and CH4 mitigation effect. Thus, our results show that SUSIBA2 rice substantially reduces CH4 emissions and that SUSIBA2 can potentially mitigate the CH4 emissions of japonica and indica rice under distinct cultivation conditions.Greenery infrastructure (GI) is an important design strategy for sustainable cities and communities' development, as it brings multiple benefits including mitigating urban heat island. Based on the implementation locations, three typical GI typologies, namely green roof, green wall, and ground tree, are widely adopted in urban communities. As previous studies focused on one single GI and mainly studied their thermal features, this study aims to fill the gap by investigating three GI typologies within one site; their thermal-irradiant performance was compared for four typical summer days in a subtropical city. Firstly, stationary and transect measurements were taken for six points (three greenery and three bare points); two typical measuring methods, i.e., the globe thermometer and the six-directional methods, were employed to collect irradiant variables. Secondly, the thermal-irradiant differences were revealed among GI typologies and temporal periods; two measuring methods were compared for their capabilities in detecting the irradiant variations near three GI typologies.
