Abstract Chinese hickory (Carya cathayensis Sarg.) is a famous woody nut in China.
Currently, there is an increasing concern related to the soil heavy metal pollution in Chinese …

In this work the content of seven heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb and Zn) and other
parameters (the pH, organic matter, carbonates and granulometric fraction) in agricultural …

The rising and continuous pollution of the soil from anthropogenic activities is of great
concern. Owing to this concern, the advent of digital soil mapping (DSM) has been a tool that …

This study characterises and compares Cr, Ni, Pb, Cu, Zn and Cd (HMs) contents and the
main edaphic parameters in arable soils (AS) from western areas of the Andalusian …

Spatially varying two dimensional (2D) geo-data are commonly encountered in earth
sciences and engineering, such as soil or rock properties. Only sparse measurements are …

Spatial interpolation has been frequently encountered in earth sciences and engineering. A
reasonable appraisal of subsurface heterogeneity plays a significant role in planning, risk …

The study presents the application of selected multivariate statistical methods (multivariate
analysis of variance, discriminant analysis, principal component analysis) and geostatistical …

This paper reviews some conceptual and practical issues regarding the application of
georeferenced data in epidemiologic research. Starting with the disease mapping tradition …

Geostatistical methods are one of the advanced techniques used for interpolation of
groundwater quality data. The results obtained from geostatistics will be useful for decision …

The purpose of the presented study was to identify possible ecological and health risks by
