Absolute shrinkage rate fitting results. by Liangchun Xu (21781958)

“…The test results showed that, firstly, the absolute expansion and absolute shrinkage of cement-stabilized phosphogypsum materials increased with the increase of compaction, cement dosage and the number of wet and dry cycles, and decreased with the increase of initial water content and the dosage of phosphogypsum; Secondly, the fracture rate of cement-stabilized phosphogypsum materials increased with cement dosage and the number of wet and dry cycles; and decreased with compaction, initial moisture content, and phosphogypsum dosage; Thirdly, the relationship between the absolute expansion or shrinkage of cement-stabilized phosphogypsum materials and the compaction degree and the fracture rate is not a simple linear relationship, but is affected by a combination of factors, showing nonlinear characteristics, which can be fitted by the nonlinear binary quadratic equation f(x,y) =ax²+bx+cy²+dy+e. …”

DataSheet_1_The Importance of Dead Seagrass (Posidonia oceanica) Matte as a Biogeochemical Sink.docx by Eugenia T. Apostolaki (8490663)

“…Assessment of the temporal trends of C_org, N and Hg concentrations in the dead matte revealed changes in the accumulation of these elements over the last 120 years, with an increase following the onset of industrial activities 65 y BP (i.e., yr. 1950) that was sustained even after seagrass loss around 35 y BP. Despite a decrease in Hg concentrations in the early 1980s following the onset of pollution abatement, overall Hg levels were 2-fold higher in the local post-industrial period, with a Hg enrichment factor of 3.5 in the dead matte. …”

A novel negative-stranded RNA virus mediates sex ratio in its parasitoid host by Fei Wang (19534)

“…<div><p>Parasitoid wasps are important natural enemies of arthropod hosts in natural and agricultural ecosystems and are often associated with viruses or virion-like particles. Here, we report a novel negative-stranded RNA virus from a parasitoid wasp (<i>Pteromalus puparum</i>). …”

Differences in pathogenicity of three animal isolates of <i>Mycobacterium</i> species in a mouse model by Haodi Dong (4390237)

“…To test the hypothesis that different species of pathogenic mycobacteria isolated from varied anatomic locations or animal species differ in virulence and pathogenicity, we performed experiments with three mycobacteria strains (NTSE-3(MTB), NTSE-4(MBO) and NTSE-5 (MAV)) obtained from animal species. …”
