Abstract:
The soil sorption coefficient (Kd) of glyphosate mainly controls its transport and fate in the environment. Laboratory-based analysis of Kd is laborious and expensive. This study aimed to test the feasibility of visible near-infrared spectroscopy (vis–NIRS) as an alternative method for glyphosate Kd estimation at a country scale and compare its accuracy against pedotransfer function (PTF). A total of 439 soils with a wide range of Kd values (37–2409 L kg−1) were collected from Denmark (DK) and southwest Greenland (GR). Two modeling scenarios were considered to predict Kd: a combined model deve

Abstract. A global constant value of the extinction coefficient (Kd) is usually specified in lake models to parameterize water clarity. This study aimed to improve the performance of the 1-D freshwater lake (FLake) model using satellite-derived Kd for Lake Erie. The CoastColour algorithm was applied to MERIS satellite imagery to estimate Kd. The constant (0.2 m−1) and satellite-derived Kd values as well as radiation fluxes and meteorological station observations were then used to run FLake for a meteorological station on Lake Erie.

1. Effects of two volatile anesthetics [halothane (Hal) and enflurane (Enf)] and a volatile convulsant [hexafluorodiethyl ether (HFE)] on amino acid-induced membrane currents in neurons dissociated from the nucleus tractus solitarius of the rat were examined. The dissociated neurons were voltage clamped in the whole-cell mode of the patch-clamp technique. All drugs were applied with a microperfusion system, termed the "Y-tube" method. 2. The glutamate (Glu)-induced excitatory response was slightly reduced by both the anesthetics. The responses to three agonists at Glu receptor were depressed b

Abstract:
The adsorption of atrazine and alachlor was studied on samples of three horizons from soils with different textures and organic carbon contents. Soils were equilibrated with five concentrations of atrazine and alachlor using batch techniques. Adsorption affinity for atrazine and alachlor was approximated by the Freundlich constant (Kf), distribution coefficient (Kd), and the normalizedKdbased on organic carbon (Koc). Adsorption was not significantly correlated with soil depth, clay content, or organic carbon. Atrazine adsorption was a linear function of equilibrium concentration for nearly all

Marine water quality significantly impacts human livelihoods and production such as fisheries, aquaculture, and tourism. Satellite remote sensing facilitates the predictions of large-area marine water quality without the need for frequent field work and sampling. Prediction of diffuse attenuation coefficient (Kd), which describes the speed at which light decays as it travels through water, obtained from satellite-derived ocean color products can reflect the overall water quality trends. However, current models inadequately explore the complex nonlinear features of Kd, and there are difficultie

Solute fate in soil-plant continuum could either be soil or leaf uptake or leaching beyond the rooting zone. An adsorption coefficient (KD) is an important chemical property to describe the interaction between the solute and soil, affecting the solute movement in soils from one point to another. Boron (B), manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn) uptake are evident in the leaves as a constituent of photosynthesis and other plant body-building mechanisms for growth and development.

We studied four pesticides (atrazine, simazine, lindane, methidathion) and three soils (loam sand, sand loam, calcareous silt loam). The values of Kd obtained were compared to the values measured on the soils by the standardized method of batches and to the values of the literature. Mean Kd measured in the runoff
