Calcium-rich zeolites control naturally occurring chemical degradation in the black soils (Vertisols and their intergrades). With the help of modern tools such as remote sensing, geographic information system, soil database, geological information, topography and other related datasets, an attempt was ...
The aim of this research was to assess the distribution, sources, contamination status, ecological risk, and human health risk of heavy metals (HMs) in soil and sediments of a used-automobile spare part market in Nigeria. Forty-three (43) soil samples were collected within a spare part marke...
Hence, the structure, composition and taxonomic diversity of microbial communities in the Arctic need to be studied urgently. In particular, fungi are an important proportion of microbial communities in Arctic habitats, such as soil2,3,4, mosses5, plant leaves6,7,8 and plant roots9,10,11,12...
Because of its greater age, less disturbance from activity, and high levels of total organic carbon and black carbon in CL, PAE content in CL was the highest among the six types of land use, followed by RE, CU, BU, LA, and RO. Although in 82.6% of the soil samples, content ...
The contamination of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), including dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), is the most studied environmental issue. In 2020, a total of sixty soil samples collected from ten locations in Guiyang were...
In this context, it should be very important to prospect and conserve the wild parentals of the current crops as wild grapevine is. Moreover, some wild grapevine populations show a higher tolerance to pests and diseases [15] or to soil lime [16], [17] and, possibly, to saline soils [...

On September 5, 2022, an Ms 6.8 earthquake occurred in Luding County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan, China. The casualties and economic losses caused by the earthquake are huge. Most of the landslides triggered by this earthquake are small
We aimed to investigate the contamination and spatial variation of pyrethroids in farmland soil and water and explore the partitioning of pyrethroids in the surface soil and water of agricultural lands and the influencing factors (including temperature, precipitation, season, and crop type) which are ...
Spatial variation in the distribution of select nutrients and alkali and alkaline earth metals in the top soil of three hillocks(Raktakonda, Galikonda and Chittamgondi) near Visakhapatnam(Araku valley) India was explored. The study was undertaken during...
