The spatial distribution of total and CaCl2-extracted Cd, Pb and Zn concentrations in smelter-
impacted soils was investigated over a polluted site (40km2) in Northern France. The study …

Topographic and edaphic gradients usually arrange ecotonal boundaries. Although the
interrelationships between vegetation and edaphic factors are relevant in most types of …

The combination of magnetic, geochemical, and microstructural methods was used to
characterize road dust properties in roadside soils of two sites in southern Finland: a …

Purpose Soil contamination is one of the most pressing environmental problems on a global
scale. However, assessing the shape and size of an area where pollution occurs, and the …

An important problem in soil magnetometry is unraveling the soil contamination signal in
areas with multiple emitters. Here, geophysical and geochemical measurements were …

Although adverse health effects of heavy metals have been known for a long time, exposure
to heavy metals continues and is even increasing in some areas. Remediating heavy metal …

An investigation was undertaken to evaluate the empirical model developed by Pelfrêne et
al.(2012), predicting the human bioaccessibility of Cd and Pb in smelter-contaminated …

Concepts and developments for a new field in ecotoxicology, referred to as “landscape
ecotoxicology,” were proposed in the 1990s; however, to date, few studies have been …

Although understanding the influence of the spatial arrangement of habitats and interacting
communities on the processes of pollutant flux and impacts is critical for exposure and risk …

Soil magnetic measurements are used increasingly to estimate the impact of airborne,
combustion-related particulate matter (PM) pollution in dense measurement grids. Although …
