Heathland Restoration Techniques: Ecological Consequences for Plant-Soil and Plant-Animal Interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We compare the soil and plant community development during heathland restoration on improved farmland when achieved through soil stripping with that achieved through soil acidification.

Polar Lattice‐Distorted Motifs Enable Synergy of Local Polarization/Dipole Fields for Concurrent Glyphosate Wastewater Remediation and CO Evolution

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Photocatalytic treatment of glyphosate herbicide in agricultural wastewater is achieved through the cooperative effect of the local polarization field and dipole field mediated by lattice‐distorted carbon nitride. Glyphosate is completely degraded via selective C─P bond cleavage with a CO evolution rate of 1166 µmol g−1 h−1.

Influence of fine process particles enriched with metals and metalloids on Lactuca sativa L. leaf fatty acid composition following air and/or soil-plant field exposure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We investigate the effect of both foliar and root uptake of a mixture of metal(loid)s on the fatty acid composition of plant leaves. Our objectives are to determine whether both contamination pathways have a similar effect and whether they interact ...

ML Workflows for Screening Degradation‐Relevant Properties of Forever Chemicals

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The environmental persistence of per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) necessitates efficient remediation strategies. This study presents physics‐informed machine learning workflows that accurately predict critical degradation properties, including bond dissociation energies and polarizability.

Cadmium accumulation and translocation in maize cultivars on contaminated soils in southern China

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Rapid industrialization in China has led to widespread soil contamination, particularly with heavy metals like cadmium (Cd). This study investigates Cd accumulation and translocation in 12 commercial maize cultivars grown on contaminated soils.

The lichen flora of Hull, with particular reference to zonal distribution and environmental monitoring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
YesThe role of lichens as environmental monitors is widely recognised. Not only are they valuable as indicators of habitat stability and enyironmental continuity, but they are also effectiye in monitoring environmental quality.

Programmable Semi‐Interpenetrating Living Materials With Robust Stability for Versatile Bioremediation and Biotherapeutics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A semi‐interpenetrating engineered living material (sIHSELM), fabricated via thermosensitive hydroxybutyl chitosan and covalent protein self‐assembly, demonstrates exceptional mechanical properties and environmental stability. Shielding bacteria from harsh conditions, sIHSELM exhibits remarkable efficacy in ulcerative colitis treatment and pollutants ...

Examining the Effects of Urbanization on Soil Characteristics in Portland, Oregon\u27s Forest Park [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Studies by Dr. Nancy Broshot in Forest Park, an urban forest in Portland, Oregon, have shown high tree mortality and low concomitant recruitment. Lichen surveys conducted in 2013 revealed a shift in the lichen community to one typified by nitrogen ...
