Effects of Surface Water Fluctuations and Sediment Movement on Hyporheic Zone Biogeochemistry and Microbial Communities

The hyporheic zone (HZ) is the region beneath and adjacent to streams, rivers, and riverine estuaries where the bidirectional exchange of groundwater (GW) and surface water (SW) occurs. The HZ is an integral component of watersheds, a biologically-active zone providing critical control of SW quality and aquatic life. Much prior work has investigated microbially-mediated biogeochemical reactions in the HZ, mainly from a steady-state perspective. Yet key unique aspects of the HZ include 1) proximity to SW fluctuations (e.g., storms, dam operations) which cyclically drive DOC and DO into the bed and banks creating biogeochemical “hot moments,” and 2) continually shifting surface sediment. Both of these controls should substantially influence microbial communities, yet remain poorly understood, and a mechanistic predictive framework does not exist.

Effect of Surface Passivation of CZTS Semiconductor Detector on Leakage Current

Cadmium Zinc Telluride Selenide (CdZnTeSe or CZTS)has shown high crystal quality for room-temperature gamma ray and X-ray detection applications compared to Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CdZnTe or CZT) [1,2]. Current applications of CZT include medical imaging, homeland security, and X-ray and gamma ray astronomy [3]. CZST has similar potential applications
