From these patterns, we infer that inputs of carbon and inorganic Hg into harvest-impacted stream sediment are likely sourced from the harvested upland areas and stimulate in situ MeHg production in stream sediment. These findings indicate the importance of stream sediment as potential MeHg pools in harvested forest watersheds. The findings also demonstrate that forest management practices aiming to mitigate organic matter and Hg inputs to streams can effectively alleviate harvesting impacts on Hg methylation and MeHg concentrations in stream sediment.]]> Wed, 27 Mar 2024 11:52:26 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2296266 Gene expression analysis of Chironomus riparius in response to acute exposure to tire rubber microparticles and leachates https://trid.trb.org/View/2309626 Wed, 27 Mar 2024 11:52:26 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2309626 Spatiotemporal variation and inter-transport of atmospheric speciated mercury between Kaohsiung Harbor and neighboring urban areas https://trid.trb.org/View/2305055  fall > spring > summer. Concerning spatial distribution, ASM concentrations in the port areas were generally higher than those in the urban areas. This disparity was chiefly attributed to the influence of the prevailing winds, local sources, and atmospheric dispersion. Backward trajectory simulation revealed that polluted air masses blown from the northeast in winter and spring, moving along the western in-land part of Taiwan Island, were likely influenced by local sources and long-range transport (LRT). In summer, air pollutants originating from the south were likely transported from the coastal industrial sources. During fall, air masses blown from the western offshore waters transport air pollutants from Kaohsiung Harbor to neighboring Metro Kaohsiung. The results obtained from principle component analysis (PCA) indicated that primary sources in the port areas included ship emissions, vehicular exhausts, and nearby industrial complex, which align with the primary source factors identified by the positive matrix factorization (PMF), which were mobile sources and coal-fired industrial boilers. Meanwhile, mobile sources and sulfur-containing fuel/waste combustion were identified as the primary sources in the urban areas.]]> Wed, 27 Mar 2024 11:52:26 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2305055 Concentration-dependent alterations in the human plasma proteome following controlled exposure to diesel exhaust https://trid.trb.org/View/2305089 Wed, 27 Mar 2024 11:52:26 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2305089 Use of unmanned aerial systems for measuring particulate matter in the lower atmosphere in urban areas https://trid.trb.org/View/2317263 Mon, 25 Mar 2024 17:12:13 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2317263 Integrating Carbon Mitigation, PM₂.₅ Reduction, and Livelihood Improvement: A Non-equilibrium Dynamic Urban Analysis in Beijing https://trid.trb.org/View/2320834 Mon, 25 Mar 2024 09:55:21 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2320834 Support the establishment of the MED-ECA: The LIFE4MEDECA project https://trid.trb.org/View/2315043 Mon, 25 Mar 2024 09:54:48 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2315043 Study Supporting the Impact Assessment of the CountEmissions EU Initiative https://trid.trb.org/View/2334640 Fri, 22 Mar 2024 17:05:45 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2334640 Development of Pressure Pulsation 1D Model for Brake System using “2 pressures/2 systems” Method https://trid.trb.org/View/2329062 Fri, 22 Mar 2024 17:05:45 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2329062 A track-independent vehicle indicator for ground-borne noise and vibration emission classification https://trid.trb.org/View/2343485 Fri, 22 Mar 2024 09:22:44 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2343485 Study of Air Pollution Diffusion from Ships Based on AIS Data - Survey of the Situation in the Port of Yangon - https://trid.trb.org/View/2352852 Fri, 22 Mar 2024 09:20:42 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2352852 Psychoacoustic parameters in noise assessment – A research within the BMDV Network of Experts https://trid.trb.org/View/2314989 Fri, 22 Mar 2024 09:20:04 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2314989 Joint gate-runway scheduling considering carbon emissions, airport noise and ground-air coordination https://trid.trb.org/View/2344900 Fri, 22 Mar 2024 09:11:36 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2344900 Electric boat underwater radiated noise and its potential impact on species of conservation interest https://trid.trb.org/View/2315611 Thu, 21 Mar 2024 17:05:26 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/2315611
