Globally, environmentally significant soils (ESSs) mainly include acid sulfate, heavy metal
(loid)-contaminated, petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated, pesticide-contaminated, and …

The ecological impacts of acid sulphate soils (ASS) and the management of the impacts are
a major concern globally. The reasons being how to minimize the exposure, reduce the …

Disturbed acid sulphate soils are potent sources of acidity in coastal waterways. Monitoring
studies of the drainage water for sites at East Trinity, Cairns and Pimpama, south-east …

The magnitude of the diffuse leakage of metals (Al, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, V, and
Zn) from Finnish acid sulfate soils (AS soils) into streams was assessed and then compared …

Although evidence has indicated that the biogeochemical coupling of Fe and N redox
reactions has potentially important impacts on the cycling of N in the environment, the …

A combination of analytical and field measurements has been used to probe the speciation
and cycling of iron in coastal lowland acid sulfate soils. Iron K-edge EXAFS spectroscopy …

Lake Taihu suffers from eutrophication caused by riverine nutrient inputs and air deposition.
To characterize wet deposition of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) to the lake, precipitation …

The generation of acidity from oxidation of pyrite in acid sulfate soils requires the transport of
oxygen into the soil profile. The sink for this oxygen will not only be the chemical reaction …

The use of coastal floodplain sulfidic sediments for agricultural activities has resulted in the
environmental degradation of many areas worldwide. The generation of acidity and …

The quality of soil and water was investigated in an estuarine floodplain system, eastern
Australia. The backswamp portion of the floodplain is underlain by sulfidic sediments at …
