Acute and Chronic Toxicity of Sediments Containing Platinum and Palladium on Freshwater Benthic Organisms Chironomus riparius and Hyalella azteca

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The expanding demand for platinum group elements (PGEs) in industrial and medical applications has led to their increasing accumulation in aquatic sediments. However, their ecological impacts remain poorly understood, particularly for sediment‐dwelling invertebrates. This study assessed the toxicity of platinum (Pt) and palladium (Pd) across a

Heavy metal contamination and blue carbon sequestration in mangrove ecosystems of Puerto Rico

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Heavy metal contamination in coastal ecosystems can significantly impact biological activity, metal retranslocation, and biogeochemical cycling. This study assessed the concentrations of arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn) in mangrove sediments and leaves of two ecosystems in Puerto ...

Defining stream riparian zones across multidimensional environmental gradients

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Riparian zones are a critical terrestrial‐aquatic ecotone. They play important roles in ecosystems including (1) harboring biodiversity, (2) influencing light and carbon fluxes to aquatic food webs, (3) maintaining water quality and streamflow, (4) enhancing aquatic habitat, (5) influencing greenhouse gas production, and (6) sequestering ...

Oxygen Consumption of the River Nerite Theodoxus fluviatilis in Different Salinities

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The river nerite Theodoxus fluviatilis (Linneaus, 1758) is an euryhaline osmoconformer found in freshwater (FW) and brackish water (BW) habitats across Europe and western Asia. In northern Germany, T. fluviatilis forms regional subgroups, the FW and the BW ecotypes. Members of these ecotypes differ in shell morphology and in shell size as well
