As palladium is a kind of scarce metal that is widely used in industry, it is essential to recover palladium from secondary resources, especially acidic mediums. Chemically modified carbon materials not only have the advantage of activated carbon but also achieve the precise removal of specific...

The targeted capture of heavy metals from wastewater is urgently necessary in response to strategic demands of sustainable resource utilization, but it is severely hampered by the formation of specific adsorbent-adsorbate interactions. Herein, the conjugated microporous polymer CMP-1 with...

The terrestrial ecosystems of North America have been identified as a sink of atmospheric CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> though there is no consensus on the magnitude. However, the emissions of non-CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> greenhouse gases (CH<Subscript>4</Subscript> and N<Subscript>2</Subscript>O) may offset or even overturn the climate cooling effect induced by the CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> sink. Using a...</subscript></subscript></subscript></subscript></subscript>

This paper reported multiple induction of spiral waves with a stochastic signal in a square lattice network model composed of type I Morris–Lecar (ML) neurons, where each neuron is coupled to its four nearest neighbors. The induction occurs in two or three distinct regions of noise intensity,...

Drought is one of the most devastating natural hazards faced by the Southern United States (SUS). Drought events and their adverse impacts on the economy, society and environment have been extensively reported during 1895–2007. Our aim is thus to characterize drought conditions in the SUS and...
