During accretion, Earth's mantle was largely molten, a so-called magma ocean, and its oxidation state was determined by equilibration with metal-rich cores of infalling planetesimals through redox buffering reactions. We test two proposed mechanisms (metal layer and metal droplets) for equilibration in a magma ocean and the resulting oxidation state (Fe<sup>3+</sup>/ΣFe). Using scaling laws on convective mixing, we find that the metal layer could promote oxidation of a magma ocean, but this layer is too short-lived to reproduce present-day mantle Fe<sup>3+</sup>/ΣFe (2%–6%). Metal droplets produced by the fragmentation of impactor cores can also promote oxidation of a magma ocean. We use Monte Carlo sampling on two possible accretion scenarios to determine the likely range of oxidation states by metal droplets. We find that equilibration between silicate and metal droplets tends toward higher mantle Fe<sup>3+</sup>/ΣFe than presently observed. To achieve present-day mantle Fe<sup>3+</sup>/ΣFe and maintain the degree of equilibration suggested by Hf-W and U-Pb systematics (30%–70%), the last (Moon-forming) giant impact likely did not melt the entire mantle, therefore leaving the mantle stratified in terms of oxidation state after main accretion completes. Furthermore, late accretion impacts during the Hadean (4.5–4.0 Ga) could generate reduced domains in the shallow upper mantle, potentially sustaining surface environments conducive for prebiotic chemistry.</p>","PeriodicalId":15864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth","volume":"130 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143741248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the potential of the carbon sink effect still lacks scenario-based systematic estimation. By backdating the GFGP carbon sink increase in the Loess Plateau (LP) over the past 20 years, we forecast and reveal the spatial distribution of the carbon sink and the contribution of the GFGP in the “Double Carbon Target” years under three scenarios. Our results showed that places restored to forests (GFGP-Forest) will always lead to a carbon sink increase by (33.62 Tg C for 2000–2020) 0.78–1.09 Tg C and 1.29–2.13 Tg C in 2030 and 2060, respectively.

This conversion is due to the combination of the decrease of the Net Primary Productivity and the increase of the heterotrophic respiration in the future, which indicates that the restoration programs involved in converting croplands into grasslands will severely decrease the carbon sink benefits and potential. In summary, it is essential to correctly quantify the carbon contribution in the LP resulting from the GFGP, and properly manage to augment the carbon sink from the GFGP-Forest and avoid the carbon source of GFGP-Grassland in the future.

This research examines the impact of soil properties, that is, electrical conductivity (EC) and pH, on sediment yield in both surface and piping erosion. Rigorous laboratory experiments were conducted on slopes of 5%, 10% and 15%, using a soil profile that consisted of a 5 cm water-restrictive layer of clay loam and a 15 cm topsoil layer of loam. Three experimental configurations were devised: exclusive pipe flow at 27 L h<sup>−1</sup> (M1), rainfall intensity at 30 mm h<sup>−1</sup> (M2), and a composite scenario integrating both rainfall and pipe flow (M3), with each configuration executed three times. The pipe flow was simulated using a plastic tube with a 1 cm diameter, placed on top of the water-restrictive layer, which helped create conditions for subsurface flow. Results showed that sediment yield predictions varied with slope. For surface erosion, the most favourable performance was observed at 5% slope with pipe flow (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.76, NSE = 0.76), while combined scenarios performed adequately (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.71).

Although numerous studies have investigated thermoclines, fewer have explored their spatial and temporal variations within the same reservoir using high-resolution temporal data and a numerical model. This study analysed water temperature (WT) and thermocline variations in the Dalongdong (DLD) reservoir in Southwest China using a numerical model. The results reveal that the surface-layer water temperature (WT) of the DLD reservoir exhibited a decreasing spatial trend from upstream to downstream. Based on the simulated data, variations in the profile WT, Schmidt stability (SS) and thermocline parameters (thermocline depth [TD], lower boundary depth [TB], thickness [TT] and strength [TS]) were evaluated. It was found that the thermal structure change in the DLD reservoir follows three-phase patterns: the incubating thermal stratification (ITS) period, the obvious thermal stratification (OTS) period and the fading thermal stratification (FTS) period. During the ITS and FTS periods, the SS exhibits significant positive correlations with the TD, TS and TT, while the correlation between the TD and the TT is weak. In contrast, during the OTS period, correlations between the SS and each parameter of the thermocline weaken, and the TD and TT show a significant negative correlation. These findings suggest that thermocline dynamics are governed by distinct factors at different stages. Specifically, TB primarily controls thermocline changes during the ITS and FTS periods, whereas TD dominates during the OTS period. Additionally, spatial heterogeneity in thermocline parameters is pronounced during the OTS period in the DLD reservoir due to both depth and external recharge water flow. These results provide critical methodologies and perspectives for distinguishing thermocline variations and will contribute to the rational management of reservoir water environments.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":13189,"journal":{"name":"Hydrological Processes","volume":"39 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, studies aimed at expanding the range of applications through the modification of the microstructure of these clay minerals have increasingly attracted scientific attention. The microstructural alteration of kaolinite through high-energy mechanical action can be an interesting method for mineral functionalization, as it leads to an increase in specific surface area and, consequently, the reactivity of the inorganic solid component. For this reason, this study investigated the effectiveness of the mechanical transformation process using high-purity kaolin, characterized before and after the high-energy milling process using XRF, XRD, DTA/TG, PSD, FTIR, and SEM techniques. The results showed that the milling process significantly altered the kaolinitic microstructure, demonstrating a reduction in particle size under the established experimental conditions, reaching D<sub>90</sub> ≤ 1 μm.
