Food Contamination and Safety in Nigeria: A Systematic Synthesis of Heavy Metals, Microbial Pathogens, and Health Risk Metrics

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This is an infographic driver of food contaminants and health effects. ABSTRACT Food safety remains a critical challenge in Nigeria due to rapid urbanization and weak regulatory enforcement. This systematic review synthesizes empirical evidence from 2015 to 2025 to characterize food contaminant profiles and associated human health risks in Nigeria ...

Geochemical and Geological Investigation of Skarn‐Type Pb–Zn Mineralization in Hastanetepe (Balya‐Balıkesir, Türkiye): An Approach Based on Fluid Inclusions, Sulphur Isotopes and Geochemical Data

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Integrated petrographic, mineralogical and geochemical data from the Hastanetepe Pb–Zn deposit (Balya, Türkiye) reveal multi‐stage hydrothermal alteration and a magmatic sulphur source. Fluid inclusion and sulphur isotope results indicate a complex fluid evolution responsible for skarn‐type Pb–Zn mineralization along limestone–dacite contacts ...

Afforestation Enhances Soil Ecosystem Multifunctionality by Improving Soil Quality and Enzyme Activities in Coastal Saline–Alkali Land

Biology
Afforestation is critical for enhancing soil quality and optimizing land use in coastal saline–alkali regions. However, the dynamics of soil quality and ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) during afforestation, as well as their coupling relationships ...

Half a Century of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in Northern Gannet Eggs: Impact of Regulations

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals”, are persistent organic pollutants that have been widely used in the industry across the globe for many decades. Their chemical stability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity pose major environmental and health risks. This study examines temporal trends in the concentrations of

A parametric electrophysiological–transcriptomic map of MscL‐G22S sonogenetic neuromodulation in the rat hippocampus: Toward precision ultrasound neuromodulation

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Using a factorial sweep of ultrasound fundamental and pulse repetition frequencies, we built a parametric electrophysiological–transcriptomic map of MscL‐G22S‐mediated hippocampal neuromodulation, providing reference data for precision, parameter‐aware ultrasound neuromodulation.

Degradation of Seasonally Frozen Ground in the Three–River Source Region and Its Correlation Impact Within Precipitation–Runoff Process

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how climate change alters the water cycle in the Three Rivers Source region by degrading its important ‘solid groundwater’ (seasonally frozen ground). We found that runoff response varies by watershed and the role of permafrost decreases sharply, making water supply more dependent on rainfall and becoming increasingly vulnerable ...

Latitudinal patterns and their climate drivers of the δ13C, δ15N, δ34S isotope signatures of Spartina alterniflora across plant life-death status: a global analysis

Frontiers in Plant Science
Isotopic signatures offer new methods, approaches, and perspectives for exploring the ecological adaptability and functions of plants. We examined pattern differences in the isotopic signatures (δ13C, δ15N, δ34S) of Spartina alterniflora across varying ...

Surface activity of salt-tolerant Serratia spp. and crude oil biodegradation in saline soil

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2012
An ideal strain for crude oil degradation in saline soils would be one with high salt-tolerance. A novel bacterial strain, Serratia sp. BF40, was isolated from crude oil contaminated saline soils.

Climatic Drivers of the Area Burned by Winter Wildfires in Northern Italy

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigates winter wildfires occurring between November and April in northern Italy over the period 2008–2022. By integrating high‐resolution burned‐area data with gridded climatic indices derived from 150 weather stations, it identifies spatial and temporal wildfire patterns, highlights the most fire‐prone mountain areas through pixel ...
