Soil Decomposer Can Regulate the Legacy Effect of Photodegradation on Forest Marcescent Litter Decomposition, but Emerging Microplastics Disrupt This by Kai Tian, Xin Wang, Rumeng Ye, Yingqi Wang, Zhicheng Chen, Xiaojing Liu, Wenxia Wang, Lunguang Yao

“…ABSTRACT Photodegradation—photochemical mineralization of standing litters—often exerts a legacy effect aiding biodegradation in soil (PLE), which is overlooked in deciduous forests containing marcescent leaves. Meanwhile, increasing anthropogenic microplastics have deposited in forests, how they would affect the PLE on subsequent litter bio‐decomposition is currently unknown. …”

The Effect of Organic Acid Modification on the Pore Structure and Fractal Features of 1/3 Coking Coal by Jiafeng Fan, Feng Cai

“…Following treatment with organic acids, the coal samples exhibit an increase in surface fractal dimension, a reduction in spatial fractal dimension, a decline in micropore volume proportion, and a rise in the proportions of transitional and mesopore volumes, and the structure of the hydroxyl group and oxygen-containing functional group decreased. This indicates that treating coal samples with organic acids enhances their pore structure and chemical structure. …”
