Trace element composition of snow cover components in the city of Chita and its environs by Evgeniy A. Bondarevich

“…The materials were dust and snow meltwater, in which the quantitative content of 22 chemical elements was determined using the X-ray fluorescence method of total external reflection on an S2 Picofox spectrometer (Bruker Nano GmbH, Germany). A low content of ionic forms of elements in the aqueous phase of snow was revealed, with an excess of the maximum permissible concentration for Mn by 1.5-2 times under technogenesis conditions. …”

Contrasting sulfur isotope signatures in two arid basins separated by the Qilian mountains by Yuxin Hao, Shijiao Niu, Haixia Zhu, Xiying Zhang, Sen Wang, Xiangrui Kong

“…Results reveal high concentrations of Na+ and Cl− in both regions, with Mg2+ and SO4 2− also present, reflecting similarities in ionic composition. The δ34S values differ in distribution between the two regions: the Qaidam Basin shows higher and more clustered values (+ 9.11‰ to + 20.23‰), indicating a relatively closed system, while the Alxa Plateau includes lower and occasionally negative values (− 2.30‰ to + 11.43‰), reflecting more variable sulfur inputs and open-system conditions. …”
