Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Herbivory enhances cadmium foraging in the invasive hyperaccumulating plant Phytolacca americana
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Biological invasions and heavy metal pollution are two pervasive environmental challenges threatening global ecosystems. While the elemental defence hypothesis posits that certain plants accumulate heavy metals to deter herbivores, it remains unclear whether invasive ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction The restoration of mining‐degraded riparian forests faces challenges due to structural, compositional, and functional impacts on these ecosystems. The demand for effective monitoring requires an understanding of how ecological indicators have been applied to assess post‐mining restoration success.

Phytoremediation of Ionic and Methylmercury Pollution [PDF]
, 2006 Phytoremediation is defined as the use of plants to extract, resist, detoxify, and/or sequester toxic environmental pollutants. The long-term goal of the proposed research is to develop and test highly productive, field-adapted plant species that have ...

Elevated CO2 Concentrations and Water Stress Affect the Ability of Italian Ryegrass to Remediate Herbicides and Enhance its Allelopathic Effect [PDF]
Planta Daninha: The long temporal persistence of select herbicides negatively impacts crops sown in succession to irrigated rice. One way to reduce these compounds in the soil over time is through phytoremediation.

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.This show the biodegradation of spent lubricating oil by Bacillus sp. and a marine bacterial consortium. The consortium showed higher growth, biosurfactant production and oil removal efficiency than the isolated strain, highlighting its potential for bioremediation ABSTRACT Spent automotive lubricating oil contains complex hydrocarbons and heavy metals,
