- Abstract:
- ... The issue of the communication and transfer of agricultural practices between the ancient West and East is being increasingly addressed. The Hexi corridor, which lies on the main path of the ancient Silk Road, is one of the most important relevant study areas. Here we report the results of an archaeobotanical study based on the analysis of flotation samples and AMS 14C dating of eight sites in the ...

- Abstract:
- ... Cheyletus malaccensis is a predatory mite widely distributed in grain storages. It has been regarded as an important biological control agent for pest mites. In this study, we investigated the population genetic structure of C. malaccensis distributed in China based on the partial regions of mitochondrial COI and 12S rRNA genes. We collected 256 individuals of C. malaccensis from stored grain in 3 ...

- Abstract:
- ... We reconstructed paleovegetation changes on the Chinese Loess Plateau by applying concepts in palynology and pollination biology to the statistical analysis of the size of Artemisia pollen grains from 26 surface samples, four loess paleosoil profiles, and extant Artemisia species. We found that the size of Artemisia pollen grains varied in different plant communities, and was positively correlated ...

- Abstract:
- ... The extraction of water distribution is extremely useful in research and planning activities, including those associated with water resources, environments, disasters, local climates, and other factors. Remote-sensing images with moderate resolution have been the main data source due to the vast distribution of water and the high cost, access difficulty, and massive size of high-resolution images. ...

- Abstract:
- ... Understanding the features of the paleoclimate and paleoenvrionment from key areas is crucial for predicting the climate variation of the future. In this study, fossil charcoal coupled with high-accuracy accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) ¹⁴C dating from the Guanzhong Basin is analyzed to reconstruct the paleoclimate. Here, the coexistence approach (CA) was applied, and the result showed that the ...

- Abstract:
- ... Management of biomass waste is crucial to the efficiency and sustainable operation of constructed wetlands. In this study, biochars were prepared using the biomass of 22 plant species from constructed wetlands and characterized by BET-N2 surface area analysis, FTIR, TGA, SEM, EDS, and elemental compositions analysis. Biochar yields ranged from 32.78 to 49.02%, with mesopores dominating the pore st ...

- Abstract:
- ... Acinetobacter baumannii is an important opportunistic pathogen that causes severe nosocomial infections, especially in intensive care units (ICUs). Over the past decades, an everincreasing number of hospital outbreaks caused by A. baumannii have been reported worldwide. However, little attention has been directed toward the relationship between A. baumannii isolates from the ward environment and p ...

A high infection rate of Metastrongylus lungworms has been found in Tibetan pigs being slaughtered in different slaughter houses of Tibet autonomous region. The main aim of our study was to detect and confirm the lungworm parasite by the genetic characterization of mitochondrial cox1genome isolated from t ...

- Abstract:
- ... Poyang lake area (1000–3246 km²) is the most important wintering ground for the globally critically endangered Siberian crane (Leucogeranus leucogeranus). More than 98% of the Siberian crane population overwinters in Poyang lake area. Remote-sensing and the spatial analysis tools of geographic information system (GIS) technology were used to assess the suitability of the habitat for wintering Sibe ...
