Physical controls on sand composition and relative durability of detrital minerals during ultra-long distance littoral and aeolian transport (Namibia and southern Angola)
Eduardo Garzanti,Alberto Resentini,Sergio Andò,Giovanni Vezzoli,Alcides Pereira,Pieter Vermeesch +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, textural, mineralogical and geochemical variability in beach and aeolian-dune sands along a ca 1750 km stretch of the Atlantic coast of southern Africa by using an integrated set of techniques, including image analysis, laser granulometry, optical microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and bulk-sediment geochemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of TRMM Multi-Satellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) Products in the Peruvian Andes
TL;DR: In this article, two products generated by the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) are validated for the Peruvian Andes.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the influence of faulting on small-scale soil-gas radon variability: a case study in the Iberian Uranium Province
TL;DR: From the results, it is concluded that metasedimentary enclaves, as well as faults, can accumulate uranium from circulating fluids, and as a consequence, strongly locally enhance geogenic radon potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerobic uranium immobilization by Rhodanobacter A2-61 through formation of intracellular uranium–phosphate complexes
TL;DR: Rhodanobacter A2-61 can actively grow aerobically, in the presence of U, and can efficiently remove U(vi) from the environment, accumulating it in a structural form consistent with that of the mineral meta-autunite inside the cell, corresponding to effective metal immobilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
