Environmental partitioning influences fate, exposure and ecological risks of chemicals. Linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) models may serve as efficient tools for estimating environmental partitioning parameter values that are commonly deficient for many chemicals. Nonetheless, scarcities of empirical solute parameter values of LSER models restricted the application. This study developed and evaluated in silico methods and models to derive the values, in which excess molar refraction, molar volume and logarithm of hexadecane/air partition coefficient were...

181 Fairfield 3-Component Nodes were deployed at Blackburn Saddle in the Clark section of the San Jacinto Fault Zone

The placenta undergoes many changes throughout gestation to support the evolving needs of the foetus. There is also a growing appreciation that male and female foetuses develop differently in utero, with unique epigenetic changes in placental tissue. Here, we report meta-analysed sex-specific associations between gestational age and placental DNA methylation from four cohorts in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Programme (355 females/419 males, gestational ages 23–42 weeks)....

Data and code for analyses

The East Kunlun Orogenic Belt (E-KOB) documents successive subduction and accretion processes of the Paleo-Tethyan Ocean. However, the tectonic regime of the E-KOB at the late orogenic stage remains ambiguous. This study presents new results of whole-rock geochemistry and zircon U-Pb-Hf isotopes of the Xidatan pluton in the southern E-KOB. Detailed investigation reveals that the pluton is composed of quartz monzodiorite, host monzogranite, and igneous microgranular enclaves (IMEs). Zircon U-Pb dating results suggest that they...

Developing a confidence interval for the ratio of two quantities is an important task in statistics because of its omnipresence in real world applications. For such a problem, the MOVER-R (method of variance recovery for the ratio) technique, which is based on the recovery of variance estimates from confidence limits of the numerator and the denominator separately, was proposed as a useful and efficient approach. However, this method implicitly assumes that the confidence interval for...
