“…The weak interlayer refers to the filling material in shear belts or large-scale structural planes, which is usually composed of soil, fine sand and gravels. It is prone to argillization when encountering water and its mechanical strength and stiffness are generally low, which has adverse effects on the stability of underground structures. …”

“…The best results of plant acclimatization (survival percent, plant height and root length) were obtained by using sand or peat moss soil. The amplified DNA fragments using B7, B9 and C19 primers for mother and micropropagated plants showed that the produced pattern by primer B7 had a maximum number of 10 bands of DNA fragments with molecular size ranging between 1025.57 and 176.36 bp, micropropagated plants showed 95.2% similarity in relation to mother plant.…”

“…Here, we study a range of coastal benthic habitats, from rocky-bed communities defined by either perennial macroalgae or blue mussel beds to soft-sediment communities comprised of either seagrass, patches of different macrophyte species or bare sand. We estimated that the maximum contribution to the AEC metabolic flux can be found for a seafloor area of approximately 80 m(2) with a 5 meter upstream distance of the instrument across all the habitats. …”
