Quantitative understanding of the impact of flooding durations on Cd variations in an acidic paddy soil during the flooding and drainage processes

open access: yesSoil Security, 2023
The solubility and transformation of cadmium (Cd) are controlled by paddy soil pH, whereas paddy soil pH varies during flooding and drainage and is significantly controlled by flooding durations.

The influence of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 on the transformation of iron oxides and phosphorus in a red soil

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2022
In this study, Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, an iron (Fe)-reducing bacterium, was inoculated to a red soil, which was then incubated. Soil samples were taken regularly to analyse the variation of iron oxides and phosphorus (P) fractions. The results showed

Nanomaterials as Soil Pollutants

open access: yes, 2018
This chapter covers how engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) may enter soils, how they behave in soils, the exposure dynamics this presents to soil organisms, and resulting issues for uptake and food-chain transfer. Special attention is given to summarizing the main issues and the current state of the art for the most important elements of how ENMs act as ...

Function of Biohydrogen Metabolism and Related Microbial Communities in Environmental Bioremediation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Hydrogen (H2) metabolism has attracted considerable interest because the activities of H2-producing and consuming microbes shape the global H2 cycle and may have vital relationships with the global cycling of other elements.

Comparison of soil heavy metal pollution caused by e-waste recycling activities and traditional industrial operations

open access: yes, 2017
The traditional industrial operations are well recognized as an important source of heavy metal pollution, while that caused by the e-waste recycling activities, which have sprouted in some developing countries, is often overlooked.

Quantification of red soil macropores affected by slope erosion and sediment using computed tomography

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2023
Soil structure is an important factor interacting with soil erosion and sediment processes. However, few studies have focused on the relationship between soil macroporosity and soil erosion across different terrains. The aim of this study was to quantify
