Soil is the incubator of human activities. Mapping of soil contaminants needs to be
constantly updated. It is fragile in arid regions, especially if it accompanies dramatic and …

Soils in the past mining areas are susceptible to trace metal (loid) s deposition and pose a
health risk to humans. The purpose of this work is to evaluate the distribution patterns and …

Soil quality is a globally important issue from the point of view of food production,
maintenance of appropriate environmental quality and ecological balance. Assessing its …

This work evaluates contamination by metals and radionuclides with a chemometric
approach, using peri-urban soils near the new International Airport, Mexico. The …

Background This study investigates the contamination level, spatial distribution, pollution
sources, potential ecological risks, and human health risks associated with heavy metal …

This work evaluates the use of Echeveria elegans as a biomonitor of metals and
radionuclides, using semi-urban soils as a study area. The study area is exposed to various …

In many regions of the world, soil contamination of trace metal (loid) s has become a serious
problem. Several studies have used contamination risk indices to identify potential risks …

The main objective of this study is to thoroughly evaluate the diversity and sources of heavy
metals in the school environment. Specifically, this study examines the presence of heavy …

It is essential for the monitoring and conservation of soil environments to have a
comprehensive awareness of the source characteristics including that of heavy metal (loid) …

In the face of escalating soil contamination, this chapter meticulously examines the
multifaceted strategies employed to mitigate metal/metalloid stress in crops, an imperative …
