Journal ArticleDOI
Aquatic toxicity of acetaminophen, carbamazepine, cimetidine, diltiazem and six major sulfonamides, and their potential ecological risks in Korea.
TL;DR: The most acutely toxic among the chemicals tested in this study was diltiazem, with a median lethal concentration of 8.2 mg/L for D. magna, and Daphnia was the most susceptible among the test organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing whether the 2017 Mw 5.4 Pohang earthquake in South Korea was an induced event
TL;DR: Geological and geophysical data suggest that the Pohang earthquake was induced by fluid from an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) site, which was injected directly into a near-critically stressed subsurface fault zone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Horizontal subduction and truncation of the Cocos Plate beneath central Mexico
Xyoli Pérez-Campos,YoungHee Kim,Allen Husker,Paul M. Davis,Robert W. Clayton,Arturo Iglesias,Javier F. Pacheco,Shri Krishna Singh,Vlad Constantin Manea,Vlad Constantin Manea,Michael Gurnis +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported that the subducting Cocos Plate beneath central Mexico is horizontal, and tectonically underplates the base of the crust for a distance of 250 km from the trench.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variations of several pharmaceutical residues in surface water and sewage treatment plants of Han River, Korea.
TL;DR: Levels of pharmaceuticals detected in surface water samples upstream STPs were generally very low compared to the downstream samples, suggesting that the STPs potentially be a major source of the test pharmaceuticals into Han River.
Journal ArticleDOI
A seismic reference model for the crust and uppermost mantle beneath China from surface wave dispersion
Weisen Shen,Michael H. Ritzwoller,Dou Kang,YoungHee Kim,Fan-Chi Lin,Jieyuan Ning,Weitao Wang,Yong Zheng,Longquan Zhou +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used data from more than 2000 seismic stations from multiple networks arrayed throughout China (CEArray, China Array, NECESS, PASSCAL, GSN) and surrounding regions (Korean Seismic Network, F-Net, KNET) and produced isotropic Rayleigh wave group and phase speed maps with uncertainty estimates from 8 to 50s period across the entire region of study, and extend them to 70s period where earthquake tomography is performed.
