Dr. Sanders's doctoral studies of animal life in soft sediments led him to discover a new subclass of primitive crustaceans.
Obviously, a lower hydraulic conductivity of the Folded Molasse Sediments leads to warmer temperatures in the Folded Molasse Sediments, but colder temperatures in the rest of the model.
Two depositional processes combining the formation of obstacle marks and upstream-shifting deposition of sediments led to the vertical accretion of the vegetated bar.
Exposure to spiked sediments led to a significantly induced frequency of micronuclei, which correlated well with the concentration of 3-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene in bile liquid, a metabolite of the genotoxic PAH benzo[a]pyrene [168].
The diversity of sediments leads to considerable variation in soil texture and mineralogical composition, and, thus, to the diversity of soil properties, which is considered to be a positive feature of a landscape.
The increase in the content of fine particles and organic carbon in sediments led not only to the slower inactivation but also to lower sensitivity of the inactivation to temperature.
This picture may be about to change in light of a study of deep-sea rocks and sediments led by John Parkes, a microbiologist at Cardiff University in the U.K. By visiting oil-drilling projects at two sites in the Pacific in 2002, Parkes and colleagues obtained samples as deep as 400 meters beneath the seafloor.
Given that heterogeneity of streambed and streambank sediments leads to the possibility that the groundwater mound developed during flow events will be poorly characterised or perhaps missed altogether, incorporating infiltration flux or volume data into the model calibration increases the likelihood of obtaining accurate estimates of stream infiltration during natural flow events.
Studying sediments from the harbor of Naples, Italy, scientists found a sudden shift in sediment lead around 79 C.E., coinciding with the famous eruption of nearby Mount Vesuvius.
Additionally, exposure to Neckar River water and sediment led to changes in larval Hsp70 level.
