Abstract The Three Gorges Dam in China is the world's largest dam. Upon its completion in
2003, the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) became the largest reservoir in China and plays …

Potentially toxic element (PTE) pollution is a major abiotic stress, which reduces plant
growth and affects food quality by entering the food chain, and ultimately poses hazards to …

The contamination of arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) in paddy soils is widely reported and
these two metals are difficult to be co-remediated due to the contrasting chemical behaviors …

There is growing global interest in the bioremediation of cadmium (Cd) using combinations
of biochar and microorganisms. However, the interactions among biochar, introduced and …

This study conducted a comprehensive investigation on the distribution and bioavailability of
heavy metals (Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb) in sediments along two typical transects from …

Identifying the mobilization mechanisms and predicting the potential toxicity risk of metals in
sediment are essential to contamination remediation in river basins. In this study, a …

The combined pollution of heavy metals is ubiquitous worldwide. Mn/Al-layered double
oxide-loaded crab shells biochar (LDO/BC) was prepared, so as to remediate the combined …

Understanding the speciation and mobilization mechanisms of potentially toxic metals in
sediments is critical to aquatic ecosystem health and contamination remediation in urban …

Bioavailability-based probabilistic risk assessment is an effective approach for risk
characterization of trace metals towards aquatic species. However, it has not been routinely …

Tianjin, as an important maize production region in China, has a long history of sewage
irrigation resulting in the soil cadmium (Cd) contamination. In this study, single extractions of …
