Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Soil Shear Strength in Gully Erosion at Different Developmental Segments of Subalpine Meadows

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subalpine meadows play important roles in biodiversity conservation and soil carbon sequestration, but gully erosion poses a serious threat to their ecological stability. Soil shear strength (τ) is a key mechanical parameter for evaluating gully stability and soil resistance to failure. However, the spatial variation in soil shear strength and

Spatial Patterns, Driving Forces, and Potential Grain Losses of Non‐Grain Production of Farmland in Central Yunnan Urban Agglomeration, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The expansion of farmland non‐grain production (NGP) poses a potential threat to food security and agricultural land protection, particularly in mountainous urban agglomerations. However, the utilization patterns, driving mechanisms, and associated production‐loss effects of farmland NGP in this specific regional context remain insufficiently ...

Effects of preservatives and poisons on the elemental and isotopic composition of freshwater particulate organic matter

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Sediment traps, often used in tandem with preservatives or poisons, are widely used for the collection of particulate organic matter (POM), providing insight into the source to sink mechanisms that shape major biogeochemical cycles and sedimentary carbon sequestration.

Chromium Salt: A Review of Salt Formation, Hygroscopic Properties, and Impact on 316 L Corrosion in Hydrochloric Acid

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
This article examines the impact of externally introduced chromium compounds on the localized corrosion of 316 L stainless steel in acidic chloride environments such as hydrochloric acid. While the corrosion resistance of 316 L relies on the formation of a chromium‐rich passive oxide layer, industrial conditions may expose the steel to various chromium
