Osmium isotope geochemistry of steel plant emissions using tree bark biomonitoring [PDF]

Environmental Pollution, 2021
We report for the first time the Os isotopic composition of tree bark samples from a steel town. Osmium concentrations and 187Os/188Os isotopic ratios of ashed bark samples range from 1.40 to 24 ppt and 0.70 to 1.54, respectively, with the lowest 187Os/188Os recorded in samples close to the steel plant.

Contribution of plant anatomy to forensic investigation: Tree bark morphology

Forensic Science International, 2021
Plant science has been more and more utilized in forensic investigation, although its full potential is still to be reached. Plant macroremains are a powerful tool to link a body or other evidence back to a primary crime scene as they can provide detailed information about its previous ecological and geographic location. However, plant macroremains are
