Nb and Ta intracrustal differentiation during granulite-facies metamorphism: evidence from geochemical data of natural rocks and thermodynamic modeling by Huang, G, Chen, Y, Guo, J, Palin, R, Zhao, L

“…As biotite preferentially incorporates Nb over Ta, the early stages of biotite dehydration melting produce a high-Nb/Ta residue and a low-Nb/Ta melt; however, geochemical modeling suggests that once biotite is depleted, the Nb/Ta ratio of the system is instead controlled by rutile growth, which promotes the formation of a lower Nb/Ta residue and a higher Nb/ Ta melt, even though the volume of melt produced at this stage may be small. …”

Thermal energy storage enhancement of latent heat thermal energy storage systems by Low, Zheng Hua

“…The occurrence of dead zones, the slowest region of LHTES system to melt or solidify, causes non-uniform melting and temperature profile. …”

How did ancient human activities influence the properties and development of soil?—a case study of the Yangshao Village cultural relic site, Henan Province by Zha, Lisi, Wang, Wenjing, Zhong, Junhong, Su, Yiqi, Chang, Dandan

“…It was assumed that the ground was used to cover the grain or bury the garbage and lay with clay in order to achieve the effect of sealing. As a result, the soil voids and structure had been damaged to some extent, which prevented the downward leaching or precipitation of soil particles and minerals to a certain extent, thus affecting soil development.…”
