Atmospheric mercury uptake to foliage using in situ and transplanted lichens at the New Almaden Mining District, California, United States

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Chemistry
Contaminated soils at former mercury (Hg) mines release Hg into the atmosphere that can be absorbed by the surrounding foliage and potentially contribute to inputs of Hg to downstream reservoirs and the food chain.

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

Bioindicator demonstrates high persistence of sulfentrazone in dry soil

open access: yes, 2015
In sugarcane crop areas, the application of preemergence herbicides with long residual effect in the soil has been frequently necessary. The herbicide persistence in the soil must be high especially because of applications during the dry season of the ...

An Attention‐Assisted Machine Learning System for Deep Microorganism Image Classification

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An attention‐assisted DenseNet201 framework was developed for the classification of eight microorganism classes from microscopic images. The proposed model improved classification performance and achieved an accuracy of 87.38%. Advances in microbiology and environmental health fundamentally depend on precise and timely microorganism identification ...

Bioindicating entomofauna of the Algodonal river, La Ermita, Norte de Santander

open access: yesRevista Ingenio, 2014
The Algodonal River is one of the most important bodies of water in the department of Norte de Santander. Could a study of the biodiversity of insects associated with the Algodonal River basin determine the quality of the water that is being purified ...

Real‐time monitoring of root dielectric properties for assessing crop plant damage caused by foliar application of glyphosate

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.

Quantifying the Temporal Dynamics of Marine Biodiversity Under Anthropogenic Impacts Using eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA
Marine biodiversity is rapidly declining due to anthropogenic activities; however, the key causal agents of this decline remain largely elusive. Improving our understanding of anthropogenic impact on biodiversity dynamics requires fine‐scale temporal ...

Heavy metal bioaccumulation (Ni, V and Hg) in soft tissues of crustaceans, bivalves and gastropods: A case study on the Northern Persian Gulf [PDF]

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Environmental Sciences
The efficacy of Planaxis sulcatus (Gastropoda), Clibanarius signatus (Crustacea) and Circenita callipyga (Bivalvia) with different feeding guilds were compared as bioindicator of heavy metal pollution (Ni, V, Hg) in an area subjected to petrochemical ...

Dwarf shrubs as bioindicators. [PDF]

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 1981
Several studies of air polluted forest environments have shown that dwarf shrubs suffer from air pollution. In many cases the disturbances have been attributed to the susceptibility of the dwarf shrubs, while in some cases the vegetational competition factor has been discussed.

Evaluation of leaching potential of tebuthiuron using bioindicator plants

open access: yes, 2018
: The last destination of most herbicides used in agricultural systems is the soil. This is a dynamic interaction; herbicides can remain in the soil solution or be carried through the soil profile, reaching the water table. The objective of this work was
