    Abstract Bio-accessibility of vanadium (V) in soils determines the effectiveness of vegetation restoration in the vanadium titano-magnetite tailings reservoirs because of persistent V toxicity, yet the variations in the bio-accessibility and mobilization of V in the soils with vegetation restoration remain elusive. Here, the bio-accessibility and mobilization of V in the soil-water interface were investigated along a 48-year vegetation restoration chronosequence in the Majiatian tailings reservoir using the diffusive gradients in thin films technique (DGT) and DGT-induced flux model. We found a low concentration of DGT-extracted V along the vegetation restoration chronosequence and the V fraction was dominated by the residual form, indicating a low V bio-accessibility in the soils. The bio-accessibility of V increased along the chronosequence because of the increased V resupply from solid phase, especially from the organic V fraction and the clay bound V. Low supply coefficient (R = 0.25) revealed a limited release of V from solid phase to soil solution. The kinetic resupply processes of V and its key regulating parameters were stage-specific during the vegetation restoration. The pool size of labile V in the soils determined the rapid V supply at the early and late stages, while the low desorption rate of V from the solid to liquid phase regulated the slow supply regime at the middle stage. The results of the present study highlight the importance of the long-term monitoring of soil V mobilization in the tailings reservoir because of the increased bio-accessibility and the dynamic supply of V during the vegetation restoration.

    Abstract Pooling layer in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) is designed to reduce dimensions and computational complexity. Unfortunately, CNN is easily disturbed by noise in images when extracting features from input images. The traditional pooling layer directly samples the input feature maps without considering whether they are affected by noise, which brings about accumulated noise in the subsequent feature maps as well as undesirable network outputs. To address this issue, a robust Local Binary Pattern (LBP) Guiding Pooling (G-RLBP) mechanism is proposed in this paper to down sample the input feature maps and lower the noise impact simultaneously. The proposed G-RLBP method calculates the weighted average of all pixels in the sliding window of this pooling layer as the final results based on their corresponding probabilities of being affected by noise, thus lowers the noise impact from input images at the first several layers of the CNNs. The experimental results show that the carefully designed G-RLBP layer can successfully lower the noise impact and improve the recognition rates of the CNN models over the traditional pooling layer. The performance gain of the G-RLBP is quite remarkable when the images are severely affected by noise.

    Abstract Plant uptake can reduce soil cadmium (Cd) pollution, while how to exactly predict plant Cd uptake in industrial or mining areas during vegetation restoration remains unexplored. Taking Heteropogon contortus as the object plant, we predicted plant Cd uptake in the Majiatian tailings reservoir during 48-year vegetation restoration by the methods of soil total Cd, DGT (diffusive gradients in thin films technique) and acetic acid (HAc) extraction. Meanwhile, we explored the effects of soil properties on the accuracy of the prediction. Total Cd concentrations in the soils exhibited a better prediction of plant Cd uptake relative to the methods of HAc extraction and DGT. However, the DGT method effectively predicted plant Cd uptake at low Cd supply (lower than 0.42 μg/L), probably because of the dominant diffusion limitation by plants. The prediction of plant Cd uptake by HAc extraction was improved when combined with soil pH. Our results indicate that with increasing external Cd inputs during the vegetation restoration, soil total Cd and traditional extraction method in combination with soil properties are effective ways to predict plant Cd uptake, especially when the Cd fractions cannot be measured by DGT. However, the DGT method works once plant Cd uptake dominated by diffusion limitation despite the interference in soil properties.

    Abstract Some therapeutic proton synchrotron accelerators will be built for cancer treatment in China. The radiation produced by proton must be carefully evaluated and shielded for occupational disease hazard assessment and environmental impact assessment. Adopting the FLUKA code, a therapeutic room model, a synchrotron hall model and a high energy transport line tunnel model are constructed to get the ambient dose equivalent rate distributions. The ambient dose equivalent rates are also calculated with an empirical formula in some regions. The results calculated by the two ways are consistent with each other. The advantages and disadvantages of the two methods have been analyzed. The ambient dose equivalent rates are no more than 2.5 μSv/h at 30 cm beyond the shielding wall and the maze door. The dose rates are <25 μSv/h at 30 cm beyond the roof of the therapeutic room. These results comply with the National Occupational Health Standard requirements.
