DOES WATER DIVERSION PROJECT DETERIORATE THE WATER QUALITY OF RESERVOIR AND DOWNSTREAM? A CASE-STUDY IN DANJIANGKOU RESERVOIR

Does water diversion project deteriorate the water quality of reservoir and downstream? A case-study in Danjiangkou reservoir

In response to water deficiency in Northern China, a scheme called the Middle Route Project was devised under the South-to-North Water Transfer Division to divert water from the Han River, the biggest tributary of the Yangtze River, to supply two provinces (Henan and Hebei) and two municipalities (Beijing and Tianjin) in the north.The minimum water

High frequency of mutations in the human lipoprotein lipase gene in pregnancy-induced chylomicronemia: possible association with apolipoprotein E2 isoform.

Partial deficiency in lipolysis usually results in only mild disturbances of lipid levels.However, when this is associated with impairment of the uptake of Lifestyle remnant particles and increased production of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins stimulated by environmental factors such as during normal pregnancy, chylomicronemia may ensue.We have prev

Effect of Gravity on Repose Angle and Contact Forces of Particulate Pile Composed of Non-monodispersed Particles

Evaluating the repose angle of granular materials under different kinds of gravitational conditions is essential for in situ resource exploration on surfaces of other Earth-like planets in the next decades.The forming process of particulate pile under different kinds of gravitational accelerations was simulated by three-dimensional discrete element
