Highlights Soil pollution by microplastics (MPs) has steadily grown in recent years. MPs may
interact with pesticides that reach the soil during pest control. MPs increase adsorption and …

Micro and nanoplastics (MPs and NPs, respectively) in agricultural soil ecosystems
represent a pervasive global environmental concern, posing risks to soil biota and crops …

Nanoplastics (NPs) are emerging contaminants in the environment, where the transport and
fate of NPs would be greatly affected by interactions between NPs and minerals. In the …

The rapid increase of nanoparticles in the environment has occurred largely as a result of
anthropogenic activities, such as industrialization, including accelerated mining activities …

Efficient occlusion of guest nanoparticles into host single crystals opens up a straightforward
and versatile way to construct functional crystalline nanocomposites. This new technique …

Direct occlusion of guest nanoparticles into host crystals enables the straightforward
preparation for various of nanocomposite materials with emerging properties. Therefore, it is …

Abstract Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) from mulch films and other plastic
materials employed in vegetable and small fruit production pose a major threat to …

Lake sediments connection to the biogeochemical cycling of phosphorus (P) and carbon (C)
influences streamwater quality. However, it is unclear whether and how the type of sediment …

Organo–clay complexes could be adsorbed and subsequently occluded into soil mineral
matrices under local supersaturated solution conditions, leading to inaccessibility of …

Phosphate and dissolved organic matter (DOM) mediate the crystalline transformation of
ferrihydrite catalyzed by Fe (II) in subsurface environments such as soils and groundwater …
