Pharmacological treatment with a GABA(A) receptor modulator and a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor as a mitigation strategy against aircraft noise‐induced cardiovascular and neuronal damage

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 13, Page 3762-3779, July 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Noise pollution, particularly by aircraft, is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Aircraft noise activates stress response pathways in the brain, via the amygdala, the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis.

An Review Article on Radioactive Pollution

, 2019
Radioactive pollution is defined as the increase in the natural radiation levels caused by human activities. The human activities that can release radiation involve activities with radioactive materials such as mining, handling and processing of radioactive materials, handling and storage of radioactive waste, as well as the use of radioactive ...

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment

Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 3, Page 1148-1158, July 2026.
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

Role of Unsaturated Zone on Aquifer Leakage–Assessed With Tidal Response

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Tidal response analysis is widely used to evaluate aquifer systems, but traditional models that neglect the unsaturated zone often underestimate groundwater leakage. This study develops a new analytical model for tidal analysis that incorporates unsaturated zone effects and explained leakage patterns that traditional models could not resolve ...

Compact Storage of Radioactive Cesium in Compressed Pellets of Zeolite Polymer Composite Fibers

, 2018
To facilitate the safe storage of radioactive Cs, a zeolite–poly(ethersulfone) composite fiber was fabricated to be a compact storage form of radioactive Cs, and an immobilization was investigated with respect to the effects of volume reduction and
