As the largest container and resource of metals, sediment has a special role in the fate of
metals. Factors influencing bioavailability of heavy metals in sediment have never been …

Mangrove forests prevalent along the intertidal regions of tropical and sub-tropical
coastlines are inimitable and dynamic ecosystems. They protect and stabilize coastal areas …

Eleven heavy metals (V, Cr, Mn, Co, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb) in surface sediment in
the intertidal zones of the Yellow River Estuary, China were analyzed by inductively coupled …

Toxic metal pollution in the coastal ecosystem is becoming a serious problem, particularly in
developing countries as a result of the industrial revolution. In recent years, mangroves are …

Limited information is available on the spatiotemporal occurrence and ecological risks of
organophosphate esters (OPEs) in coastal environments. 175 water samples were collected …

This study investigated the distribution and characteristics of microplastics in surface
