In this paper, the influence of anthropogenic activity on surface water chemistry is
investigated. Base flow samples from dominant land use streams in the Muskegon River …

Fluid/rock interaction represents a major process in the formation of calcitic or aragonitic
travertine and tufa (CATT). In most cases, CATT is associated to limestone dissolution …

A large amount of excavated soils with low-level As contamination caused by civil
construction projects is of great concern in Japan. This study investigated the chemical …

There has been a global shift in environmental risk assessment towards quantifying ambient
background concentrations of metals/metalloids in soil. Whilst bedrock has been shown to …

The distribution of trace metals in active stream sediments from the mineralized Lom Basin
has been evaluated. Fifty-five bottom sediments were collected and the mineralogical …

Mapping geochemical anomalies is one of the most important tasks in mineral exploration.
Sparse principal component analysis (SPCA) can be applied to investigate the correlations …

[Objective] The objective of this study was to explore the annual variability of soil heavy
metals and its influencing factors with the aim to provide a basic scientific foundation for soil …

Earthquakes and tsunami repeatedly occur in the coastal areas of the Japanese islands,
which are located on the margin of continental plates. Paleotsunami deposits in these areas …

This paper reports on the aquatic chemistry of trace elements in terms of spatial and
temporal distribution, but also pollution sources in the transboundary watershed of the …
