Pollution, Light [PDF]

, 2023
Anthropogenic light at night disrupts natural patterns of light and darkness, and the color of light that have been reliable over geological time. Such changes in the environment result in nonadaptive responses from species and disruption of daily, lunar, and annual rhythms.

Light Pollution and Cancer. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2020
For many individuals in industrialized nations, the widespread adoption of electric lighting has dramatically affected the circadian organization of physiology and behavior. Although initially assumed to be innocuous, exposure to artificial light at night (ALAN) is associated with several disorders, including increased incidence of cancer, metabolic ...

Study of the Treatment of Organic Waste Gas Containing Benzene by a Low Temperature Plasma-Biological Degradation Method

Atmosphere, 2022
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the pharmaceutical and chemical industries have been a matter of concern for some years in China. Achieving efficient degradation of chlorobenzene (CB) in waste gas is difficult because of its high volatility and ...

Ecological light pollution [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, 2004
Ecologists have long studied the critical role of natural light in regulating species interactions, but, with limited exceptions, have not investigated the consequences of artificial night lighting. In the past century, the extent and intensity of artificial night lighting has increased such that it has substantial effects on the biology and ecology of

Influence mechanism of awns on wheat grain Pb absorption: Awns' significant contribution to grain Pb was mainly originated from their direct absorption of atmospheric Pb at the late grain-filling stage

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
The spike is the organ that contributes the most to lead (Pb) accumulation in wheat grains. However, as an important photosynthetic and transpiration tissue in spike, the role of awn in wheat grain Pb absorption remains unknown.
