FeOOH and FeOOH@ZnO were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis, and their structures and adsorption properties toward S2− were studied. The results showed that too high hydrothermal temperature was not conducive to the adsorption of S2−. However, using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) for FeOOH preparation and adding nanometer ZnO (FeOOH@ZnO) could signif...

It is important to understand the response of vegetation dynamics and surface water budget to the changing climate. To investigate the effects of vegetation and climate change on evapotranspiration and runoff on a basin scale, the SSiB4T/TRIFFID (SSiB4/TRIFFID coupled with TOPMODEL) is used to perform long-term dynamic simulations of vegetation suc...
