The nitrogen (N) cycle is of global importance, as N is an essential element and a limiting nutrient in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Excessive anthropogenic N fertilizer usage threatens sensitive downstream aquatic ecosystems. Although freshwater lake sediments remove N through various microbially mediated processes, few studies have investi...

In actual engineering fields, the bearing capacity of a rock is closely related to the pore water pressure in the rock. Studies have shown that the pore water in the rock has a great relationship with the change in runoff. Thus, it has crucial meaning to accurately evaluate and quantitate the property of the rainfall–runoff, and many traditional cl...

Abstract—A comparative analysis of pore water composition using different methods of sampling from bottom sediments and permafrost rocks from Buor-Khaya Bay (Laptev Sea) was carried out. The principal differences in the concentration of macroions (Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cl–, and \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} ...

Moisture distribution in cement-based materials is important from the durability point of view. In the present study, a portable three-magnet array with an elliptical surface radio frequency coil was used to undertake magnetic resonance measurements of moisture content in ordinary Portland cement mortar and concrete samples. Measurements along the ...

The diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) technique has been successfully and widely applied to investigate the labile fractions of inorganic contaminants in soils and sediments, but there have been almost no applications to organic contaminants. Here we developed and tested the approach for the pesticide Atrazine (ATR) in a controlled soil exper...

Abstract There is an interest in the cement industry in the use of steel slags in cement, but chemical and/or pyrometallurgical modifications are necessary to reduce the free CaO, MgO, and iron contents. However, the potential effects of its application in the reinforcement corrosion, whether in solid (concrete) or liquid medium (pore water), have ...

The Baltic Sea is negatively affected by legacy pollutants such as metals and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) that are known to have adverse effects on living organisms, including, humans and were banned decades ago. This thesis addresses the dispersal of these pollutants from heavily contaminated, cellulose-rich sediments of industrial origin...

The reaction of CA (monocalcium aluminate) with calcite was closely monitored with regard to phase development, pore water ion content and heat flow. Calcite acts as filler and reactant, finally leading to thermodynamically stable products after hydration at ambient conditions. For better understanding the mechanism taking place, a CA-cement and a ...

The early diagenesis processes of several redox-sensitive trace metals (RSMs) (Mo, U and V) were studied with several short sediment cores (~25 cm) collected in the northern Okinawa Trough (OT). Pore water vertical profiles indicated that the sedimentary environments in all cores were between oxic and suboxic, not yet reaching anoxic sulfidic condi...

Cortical bone assessment using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently received great attention in an effort to avoid the potential harm associated with ionizing radiation-based techniques. Ultrashort echo time MRI (UTE-MRI) techniques can acquire signal from major hydrogen proton pools in cortical bone, including bound and pore water, as wel...
