Researchers create framework to identify antibiotic-resistance genes and antibiotic-resistant bacteria in nanopore reads
Wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent discharge could induce resistome enrichment in the receiving water environments. However, because of the general lack of a robust antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) identification method, the driving mechan

Surface wind speed reversal in China and its impact on wind power and sand-dust storm
Global wind speed has been reported to reverse after a long period of decreasing. Increased wind speed can not only bring additional wind power but also increase the risk of sand-dust storms. The quantifying of the impact is important for wind power

Researchers make progress in river winds and their influences on transport of forest volatiles in Amazonia
The Amazon basin hosts many of the world’s longest and widest rivers, such as the Amazon, Negro, and Tapajos rivers. Air circulations in the form of river winds are driven by thermal contrast between the forests and these large water bodies. During t
