This review emphasizes the role of toxic metal remediation approaches due to their broad
sustainability and applicability. The rapid developmental processes can incorporate a large …

Abstract Small, 1st and 2nd-order, headwater streams and ponds play essential roles in
providing natural flood control, trapping sediments and contaminants, retaining nutrients …

An estimated 23 million people live on floodplains affected by potentially dangerous
concentrations of toxic waste derived from past and present metal mining activity. We …

The concentrations of total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn,
Ni, Pb and Zn in both surface water and sediment samples from the upper Tigris River were …

Heavy metals and metalloids in soils are derived from the soil parent material (lithogenic
source) and various anthropogenic sources, most of which involve several metal (loid) s …

Contamination of aquatic environments as a consequence of deep metal mining for Pb, Zn,
Cu, Cd, and Fe is of widespread international concern. Pollution resulting from metal mining …

This study discussed the environmental fate and ecological hazards of heavy metals in the
soil-plant system and sediment-water column around the former Pb-Zn mining Zeïda district …

Quantifying diffuse sources of pollution is becoming increasingly important when
characterising river catchments in entirety–a prerequisite for environmental management …

Diffuse metal pollution from mining impacted sediment is widely recognised as a potential
source of contamination to river systems and may significantly hinder the achievement of …

The aim of the study was to understand the effect of a long‐term metal exposure (110 years)
on sediment microbial communities. Two freshwater sites, F érin and M etal E urop, differing …
