Identification of Metal Contamination Sources and Evaluation of the Anthropogenic Effects in Soils near Traffic-Related Facilities

Toxics, 2021
Traffic-related facilities typically have much lower metal emissions than other sources; however, they can be numerous and widespread as well. Subdividing pollution sources is necessary to assess soil contamination characteristics and identify sources ...

Reevaluating the Activity of ZIF‐8 Based FeNCs for Electrochemical Ammonia Production

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Though receiving much attention, the field of electrochemical nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) to ammonia is marked by doubts about whether this reaction is possible in aqueous media. This work sheds light on this question for iron single‐atom on N‐doped carbon (FeNC) catalysts—a class of well‐known catalysts that is also worth testing for the sister

Paleo-modeling of coastal saltwater intrusion during the Holocene: an application to the Netherlands [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014
Coastal groundwater reserves often reflect a complex evolution of marine transgressions and regressions, and are only rarely in equilibrium with current boundary conditions.

A Coupled Hydro‐Mechanical Modeling Framework to Concurrently Simulate Coal Seam Gas Induced Subsidence and Groundwater Impacts

Water Resources Research
Land subsidence has been extensively studied and modeled in the context of conventional petroleum or water extraction. New challenges arise to model subsidence caused by coal seam gas (CSG) depressurization. CSG‐induced subsidence is a result of multiple
