Toxicological response and bioaccumulation of strontium in Festuca rubra L. (red fescue) and Trifolium pratense L. (red clover) in contaminated soil microcosms

open access: yesEnvironmental Systems Research, 2023
Potentially toxic elements (PTE) from industrial activities remain a global concern for their environmental hazards. In particular, strontium is found in drinking water and food, primarily from contamination from the nuclear industry, petroleum ...

Carbon and Strontium Abundances of Metal‐poor Stars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2007
We present carbon and strontium abundances for 100 metal-poor stars measured from R$\sim $7000 spectra obtained with the Echellette Spectrograph and Imager at the Keck Observatory. Using spectral synthesis of the G-band region, we have derived carbon abundances for stars ranging from [Fe/H]$=-1.3$ to [Fe/H]$=-3.8$.

Surface complexation model for strontium sorption to amorphous silica and goethite

open access: yesGeochemical Transactions, 2008
Strontium sorption to amorphous silica and goethite was measured as a function of pH and dissolved strontium and carbonate concentrations at 25°C. Strontium sorption gradually increases from 0 to 100% from pH 6 to 10 for both phases and requires multiple

Incorporation of strontium in earthworm-secreted calcium carbonate granules produced in strontium-amended and strontium-bearing soil [PDF]

open access: yesGeochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2013
This paper investigates the incorporation of Sr into biomineralized calcium carbonate granules secreted by the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris. Experiments were conducted using an agricultural soil amended with Sr(NO3)2 to give concentrations in the range 50 - 500 mg kg-1 Sr and a naturally Sr-rich, Celestine-bearing soil containing up to 11 000 mg kg-1

Preparation of strontium hexaferrite magnets from celestite and blue dust by mechanochemical route [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mining and Metallurgy. Section B: Metallurgy, 2008
In the present investigation celestite (natural ore of strontium) and blue dust (iron ore fines) have been used for the preparation of strontium hexaferrite powder. The mechanical alloying process has been adopted to prepare strontium hexaferrite powder.

Authigenic Clays Versus Carbonate Formation as Products of Marine Silicate Weathering in the Input Sequence to the Sumatra Subduction Zone

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
We use geochemical and petrographic data from anoxic sequences of the Nicobar Fan to document extensive marine silicate weathering (MSiW) in the input sediment of the Sumatra subduction zone and the conditions that result in authigenic minerals ...

The influence of water–rock interactions on household well water in an area of high prevalence chronic kidney disease of unknown aetiology (CKDu)

open access: yesnpj Clean Water, 2021
Poor drinking water quality in household wells is hypothesised as being a potential contributor to the high prevalence of chronic kidney disease of uncertain aetiology (CKDu) among the farming communities of the Medawachchiya area, Anuradhapura, Sri ...
