Rare earth elements (REEs) have recently received particular attention due to their
accumulation in the environment. Such heightened recognition prompted our evaluation of …

Abstract Rare Earth Elements (REE) are becoming increasingly important economically and
highly exploited, thus contributing to REE increases in ecosystems. The ecotoxicological …

Human activity as a result of civilization development contributes to creating new sources of
environmental pollution. Air pollution is one of the major problems because it affects the …

Monitoring of potentially toxic elements in agricultural soil represents the first measure of
caution regarding food safety, while research into element bioavailability should be a step …

This is the first study to use moss transplants as a biomonitoring technique and inductively
plasma mass spectrometry to investigate airborne potentially toxic element pollution and air …

This review presents compiled results of complex biomonitoring studies that have been
conducted in the Holy Cross Mountains, south-central part of Poland, since the 1990s. The …

As airborne pollution is recognised as the single largest environmental health hazard in
Europe, the necessity to develop effective systems for monitoring and reducing the level of …

Despite its small size, a moss bag can reveal the different temporal and spatial deposition
patterns of pollutants at a particular site; therefore, researchers can use moss bags to …

This study was performed in organic vineyard to assess integrated pollution in soil–plant–air
system by potentially toxic elements (PTE). Concentrations of 26 PTE were determined in …

Biomonitoring studies are most often used in short-term study periods to quickly obtain
information on the state/quality of the environment and its pollution levels. Performing long …
