DOI: https://doi.org/10.15446/ esrj.v25n1.80156 To study the influence of metal supports in roadways on the detection of mines using the transient electromagnetic method, authors treated metal supports including anchor nets as a thin metal layer. According to the finite differences principle, the characteristics of the full-space transient electromagnetic response under the thin metal layer’s influence were calculated using a non-uniform grid. The thin metal layer's presence slowed the electromagnetic field’s diffusion rate and hindered the overall diffusion. The transient electromagnetic response curve observed under the thin metal layer’s influence was higher than that without the supports. Thicker metal layers resulted in higher early response values and slower decay rates. The decay rate increased as a function of time, gradually approaching that of the curve without metal supports. The simulation of the transient electromagnetic response to the model of water-containing lowresistance structures showed that the metal roadway support reduced the sensitivity of the transient electromagnetic method and weakened its response to low-resistance anomalies.

Therefore, the focus of this paper is to evaluate a stack of 39 Interferometric Wide Sentinel-1 scenes, spanning from January 2018 to April 2019, acquired in descending orbit geometry, for the detection and monitoring of surface displacements. The results have shown that descending IW Sentinel-1 scenes can be used to provide a broad picture of the Line-Of-Sight LOS deformation phenomena.

DOI: https:// doi.org/10.15446/esrj.v25n1.74167 The variation in the structural characteristics (cooling joints and tectonic fractures) of basaltic flows implies potential variability in the intensity of erosion by plucking. The erosive behavior of the rivers that sculpt these areas depends on their interaction with the diverse fracture systems. In view of this, we analyzed the effect of fracture variability (tipology, density and direction) in basalts on erosion in a bedrock river reach located in the Continental Volcanic Province of the Paraná Basin, southern Brazil. The fracture density and fracture direction were evaluated through field photogrammetry in seven sample areas distributed along a reach of 120 m. The fracture direction and main erosion axes were also surveyed by remote piloted aircraft (RPA) aerial imaging. The main erosion axes coincide with the principal fracture directions (tectonic fractures), which are disposed obliquely to the channel flow direction, making an average angle of 50°. The small, more abundant, and multidirectional cooling joints control the plucking process, but do not determine the erosion direction. The fracture density systematically decreases upstream from 9.62 to 3.73 m/m2, probably related to distance from a structural lineament which river crosses downstream. The higher fracture density favors more intense plucking due to decrease in the size of the rock blocks. The lower fracture density limits the plucking and favors the macroabrasion, mainly if associated with vesicular-amygdaloidal basalt.

Assessment of the use of tropical peats as local alternative materials for the adsorption of Pb, Zn and Cd: An equilibrium study. Earth Sciences Research Journal, 25(1), pending pages. DOI: https://doi.org/10.15446/esrj.v25n1.84276 Peat is an organic material that has been widely used as an efficient and low-cost adsorbent. As many studies tend to focus on temperate peats, there is a lack of knowledge about the adsorption mechanism of tropical peats. This paper investigates the use of two Brazilian peats (Cravinhos C and Luis Antônio LA) from the Mogi-Guaçu river basin for the adsorption of lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), and cadmium (Cd), in order to contribute to the use of local and easy access materials to remediate contaminated sites. The peats adsorbed a high percentage of cations, especially Pb cations (100.0-46.3%), with commercial peat C showing higher adsorption than peat LA. The removal order was Pb2+ > Cd2+ ≥ Zn2+ for C and Pb2+ > Zn2+ > Cd2+ for LA. The batch data for both peats and for all metals were better fit by the Langmuir isotherm, with adsorption capacities (qm) for Pb, Zn, and Cd of 37.3134, 29.0674 and 21.2890 mmol kg-1 in peat C and 21.7391, 14.2550 and 3.6460 mmol kg-1 in LA, respectively, values comparable to those of other peats and biosorbents. The studied peats are considered efficient, alternative and low-cost adsorptive materials for these metals. The proximity of peatlands to areas with high potential for contamination necessitates the use of local materials to reduce remediation costs.

Earth Sciences Research Journal, 25(1), 115-122. DOI: https://doi.org/10.15446/ esrj.v25n1.93184 The traditional research method of fault diagnosis mechanism has poor stability, which leads to the difference of fault diagnosis and location results. Therefore, under the complex geological environment, a new research method of fault diagnosis mechanism of gear and bearing for coal mining equipment is proposed. This method calculates gears and bearings’ yield strength by analyzing coal mining equipment’s bearing capacity elasticity. According to the fitting degree, the equipment sample’s projection space is confirmed, the fault features of gear and bearing are extracted by segmentation algorithm, the optimal fitness is set by positioning algorithm, the location of fault center is obtained, and the fault mechanism diagnosis is studied. Experimental results show that compared with the traditional method, the proposed method is more stable, and the difference in fault diagnosis results is minimal. It can be seen that this method is more suitable for fault diagnosis of coal mining equipment.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.15446/esrj.v25n1.94403 This research was conducted on a farm of Payam-e-Noor University in Piranshahr, in West Azerbaijan province of Iran, during 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 crop sessions to investigate the wheat physiological traits response to standard and ecological agricultural systems. The experiment was conducted as a split-plot design with two factors and three replications. The first factor, which was considered the main plot, included high, low-input, and ecological agricultural systems. Subplots were seed pre-treatment, including control (without priming), hydro priming, and food priming with ascorbate. The results showed that the least photosynthesis rate and mesophilic conductance were related to lowinput agricultural system; however, in the ecological system, the transpiration, substomatal carbon dioxide, and water use efficiency of photosynthesis were the lowest. Also, seed priming increased the photosynthesis rate, mesophilic conductivity, and water use efficiency of photosynthesis.
