This paper reviews the factors affecting trace metal behaviour in estuarine and riverine
floodplain soils and sediments. Spatial occurrence of processes affecting metal mobility and …

Marshes have been proposed as sites for phytoremediation of metals. The fate of metals
within plant tissues is a critical issue for effectiveness of this process. In this paper we review …

Background Many areas throughout the world are simultaneously contaminated by high
concentrations of soluble salts and by high concentrations of heavy metals that constitute a …

Coastal wetlands host large and dynamic reservoirs of organic carbon (C) and are also
biogeochemical hotspots for a wide range of Fe (hydr-) oxides with different chemical …

Toxic metal (loid) contamination of soil and sediment poses long term risk to soil and human
health through plant–human or plant–animal–human food chain pathways. Iron plaque (IP) …

Different modes of preservation of root traces (rhizoliths) provide information on soil-
moisture regimes in alluvial paleosols in the Paleogene Fort Union and Willwood formations …

Rates of sediment accumulation and microbial mineralization were examined at three
Kandelia candel forests spanning the intertidal zone along the south coastline of the heavily …

The persistent bioavailability of toxic metal (oids)(TM) is undeniably the leading source of
serious environmental problems. Through the transfer of these contaminants into food …

Abstract The concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn in sediments, water, and different plant
organs of six aquatic vascular plant species, Ceratophyllum demersum L. Echinochloa …

The physico-chemical properties of iron oxyhydroxide plaques formed on the roots of
Phragmites australis under field and laboratory conditions were determined using electron …
