Ultraviolet C (UVC) irradiation at 254 nm is a promising method for controlling cyanobacterial proliferation, but the growth suppression is temporary. Resuscitation remains a challenge with UVC application, necessitating alternative strategies for lethal effects. Here, we show synergistic inhibition of <em>Microcystis aeruginosa</em> using ultraviolet A (UVA) pre-irradiation before UVC. We find that low-dosage UVA pre-irradiation (1.5 J cm⁻²) combined with UVC (0.085 J cm⁻²) reduces 85% more cell densities compared to UVC alone (0.085 J cm⁻²) and triggers <em>mazEF</em>-mediated regulated cell death (RCD), which led to cell lysis, while high-dosage UVA pre-irradiations (7.5 and 14.7 J cm⁻²) increase cell densities by 75–155%. Our oxygen evolution tests and transcriptomic analysis indicate that UVA pre-irradiation damages photosystem I (PSI) and, when combined with UVC-induced PSII damage, synergistically inhibits photosynthesis. However, higher UVA dosages activate the SOS response, facilitating the repair of UVC-induced DNA damage. This study highlights the impact of UVA pre-irradiation on UVC suppression of cyanobacteria and proposes a practical strategy for improved HCBs control.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34434,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Ecotechnology","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100455"},"PeriodicalIF":14.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666498424000693/pdfft?md5=dcee3137670050ef4cf43b9ad6fcd2eb&pid=1-s2.0-S2666498424000693-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141636913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional biological methods struggle to treat BPA wastewater with high chloride (Cl⁻) levels due to the toxicity of high Cl⁻ to microorganisms. While persulfate-based advanced oxidation processes (PS-AOPs) have shown promise in removing BPA from high Cl⁻ wastewater, their widespread application is always limited by the high energy and chemical usage costs. Here we show that peroxymonosulfate (PMS) degrades BPA <em>in situ</em> under high Cl⁻ concentrations. BPA was completely removed in 30 min with 0.3 mM PMS and 60 mM Cl⁻. Non-radical reactive species, notably free chlorine species, including dissolved Cl₂(l), HClO, and ClO⁻ dominate the removal of BPA at temperatures ranging from 15 to 60 °C. Besides, free radicals, including ^•OH and Cl₂^•−, contribute minimally to BPA removal at 60 °C. Based on the elementary kinetic models, the production rate constant of Cl₂(l) (32.5 M⁻¹ s⁻¹) is much higher than HClO (6.5 × 10⁻⁴ M⁻¹ s⁻¹), and its degradation rate with BPA (2 × 10⁷ M⁻¹ s⁻¹) is also much faster than HClO (18 M⁻¹ s⁻¹). Furthermore, the degradation of BPA by Cl₂(l) and HClO were enlarged by 10- and 18-fold at 60 °C compared to room temperature, suggesting waste heat utilization can enhance treatment performance. Overall, this research provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of direct PMS introduction for removing organic micropollutants from high Cl⁻ wastewater. It further underscores the critical kinetics and mechanisms within the PMS/Cl⁻ system, presenting a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable alternative for wastewater treatment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":34434,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Science and Ecotechnology","volume":"22 ","pages":"Article 100452"},"PeriodicalIF":14.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666498424000668/pdfft?md5=4770142a7ebefee846382933e4432dee&pid=1-s2.0-S2666498424000668-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141690920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ubiquitous surveillance cameras can continuously record rainfall events through video and audio, so they have been recognized as potential rain gauges to supplement professional rainfall observation networks. Since video-based rainfall estimation methods can be affected by variable backgrounds and lighting conditions, audio-based approaches could be a supplement without suffering from these conditions. However, most audio-based approaches focus on rainfall-level classification rather than rainfall intensity estimation. Here, we introduce a dataset named Surveillance Audio Rainfall Intensity Dataset (SARID) and a deep learning model for estimating rainfall intensity. First, we created the dataset through audio of six real-world rainfall events. This dataset's audio recordings are segmented into 12,066 pieces and annotated with rainfall intensity and environmental information, such as underlying surfaces, temperature, humidity, and wind. Then, we developed a deep learning-based baseline using Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and Transformer architecture to estimate rainfall intensity from surveillance audio. Validated from ground truth data, our baseline achieves a root mean absolute error of 0.88 mm h^-1 and a coefficient of correlation of 0.765. Our findings demonstrate the potential of surveillance audio-based models as practical and effective tools for rainfall observation systems, initiating a new chapter in rainfall intensity estimation.

Here we develop a bacteria-based index of biotic integrity (IBI) that can clearly indicate the restoration of aquatic ecosystems with minimal artificial interventions. We applied this method to a restored shallow lake during 3-year intensive ecological interventions. The interventions reduced nutrients and heavy metals by 27.1% and 16.7% in the sediment, while the total organic carbon (TOC) increased by 8.0% due to the proliferation of macrophytes. Additionally, the abundance of sulfur-related metabolic pathways decreased by 10.5% as the responses to improved ecosystem. The score of bacteria-based IBI, which is calculated based on the diversity, composition, and function of benthic bacterial communities, increased from 0.62 in 2018 to 0.81 in 2021.

Higher sea surface temperatures are linked to increased NNS richness, aligning with global marine biodiversity trends.

Herein, we examined the transport characteristics of PM_2.5 pollution across provinces in 2013 and 2020 via chemical transport modeling and then monetized inter-provincial contributions of PM_2.5 improvement based on pollutant emission control costs. We found that approximately 60% of the PM_2.5 pollution was from local sources, while the remaining 40% originated from outside provinces. Furthermore, about 1011 billion RMB of provincial air pollutant abatement costs contributed to the PM_2.5 concentration decline in other provinces during 2013–2020, accounting for 41.2% of the total abatement costs.

This capability allows the temporal and spatial decoupling of redox half-reactions, providing a flexible electron transfer mechanism. In this review, we systematically examine the critical role of geobatteries in influencing electron transfer and utilization in environmental biogeochemical processes. Typical redox-active centers within geobatteries, such as quinone-like moieties, nitrogen- and sulfur-containing groups, and variable-valent metals, possess the potential to repeatedly charge and discharge. Various characterization techniques, ranging from qualitative methods like elemental analysis, imaging, and spectroscopy, to quantitative techniques such as chemical, spectroscopic, and electrochemical methods, have been developed to evaluate this reversible electron transfer capacity. Additionally, current research on the ecological and environmental significance of geobatteries extends beyond natural soil–water systems (e.g., soil carbon cycle) to engineered systems such as water treatment (e.g., nitrogen removal) and waste management (e.g., anaerobic digestion). Despite these advancements, challenges such as the complexity of environmental systems, difficulties in accurately quantifying electron exchange capacity, and scaling-up issues must be addressed to fully unlock their potential.
