Attempts to apply nanotechnology in agriculture began with the growing realization that
conventional farming technologies would neither be able to increase productivity any further …

Acid sulfate soils have been described as the “nastiest soils on earth” because of their
strong acidity, increased mobility of potentially toxic elements and limited bioavailability of …

Acid sulfate soils are one of the most environmentally harmful soils existing in nature. This is
because they produce sulfuric acid and release metals, which may cause several ecological …

The off-site effects of agricultural organic soils include the leaching of N, P, and organic
carbon (OC) to watercourses and CO 2, CH 4, and N 2 O emissions into the atmosphere …

The sulfur dynamics of boreal brackish-water sediments rich in metastable iron sulfide
(average elemental composition of FeS1. 1), which upon oxidation have a huge impact on …

The objective of this study was to review the available research information on the
environmental risks and effects of metals leached from Finnish acid sulphate soils. The …

Nanotechnology is one of the utmost significant tools in modern agriculture is predicted to
become a driving cost-effective force in the near future. Nanotechnology in agriculture has …

The speedy progress towards the utilization of nanomaterials (NMs) is being extensively
carried out in the fields of agriculture and food industry due to their varied properties. In …

When reduced sulfidic parent sediments are oxidized, they become acid sulfate soils and
discharge metal laden acidic solutions that can damage the environment, infrastructure, and …

This study tracks changes in metal distribution in estuarine sediments as a result of leakage
from acid sulphate (AS) soil landscapes in the Boreal Zone (Finland). The main objective …
