Incorporating Auxiliary Data of Different Spatial Scales for Spatial Prediction of Soil Nitrogen Using Robust Residual Cokriging (RRCoK)

Agronomy, 2021
Auxiliary data has usually been incorporated into geostatistics for high-accuracy spatial prediction. Due to the different spatial scales, category and point auxiliary data have rarely been incorporated into prediction models together.

Predicting Soil Salt Content Over Partially Vegetated Surfaces Using Non-Negative Matrix Factorization

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2015
Remote sensing has been widely applied to map soil salinity in the last few decades. However, a notable decrease in the accuracy of soil salt content (SSC) predictions occurred when the soil surfaces were partially vegetated. To minimize the influence of

Ecological and human health risk assessment of heavy metals based on their source apportionment in cropland soils around an e-waste dismantling site, Southeast China

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
An accurate understanding of soil heavy metal (HM) pollution characteristics and source apportionment, and a recognition of the major factors influencing ecological and human health risks (HHRs) are essential for soil HM pollution control and remediation.

Bio-remediation of a sludge containing hydrocarbons [PDF]

, 2007
Bio-augmentation has been used as a bio-remediation option for hydrocarbon-contaminated, oily-sludge restoration. This sludge was obtained from the Bonny-Terminal Improvement Project (BTIP) for Bonny Island, near Port Harcourt, Nigeria.

Wien effect of Cd/Zn on soil clay fraction and their interaction

Geochemical Transactions, 2018
Background The coexistence of Cd2+ and Zn2+ ions in nature has a significant influence on their environmental behaviors in soils and bioavailability for plants. While many studies have been done on the mutual toxicity of Cd2+ and Zn2+, few studies can be
