EFFECTS OF SHEAR STRESS AND SALINITY STRATIFICATION ON FLOC SIZE DISTRIBUTION DURING THE DRY SEASON IN THE MODAOMEN ESTUARY OF THE PEARL RIVER

Effects of Shear Stress and Salinity Stratification on Floc Size Distribution During the Dry Season in the Modaomen Estuary of the Pearl River

The floc size distribution of fine cohesive sediments in estuaries varies spatiotemporally within assorted physical, chemical, and biological factors.However, the distribution of different floc fractions that are affected by shear stress and salinity stratification has not yet been thoroughly investigated.This study intends to clarify the floc size

Saprophytic Intracellular Rhizobia in Alfalfa Nodules

In indeterminate alfalfa nodules, the establishment of the senescent zone IV, in which both symbionts undergo simultaneous degeneration, gemplers coupon has been considered, until now, as the end point of the symbiotic interaction.However, we now describe an additional zone, zone V, proximal to the senescent zone IV and present in alfalfa nodules m
