The aim of this study was to investigate the causes evolution atmospheric dust composition in an open-to-public subterranean site (UNESCO-recognized historic mine) at increasing distances from air intake. role components imported with surface compared natural and anthropogenic sources inside mine. Samples deposited were directly collected flat surfaces 11 carefully selected sites. morphological...

Low oxygen conditions in the modern Baltic Sea are exacerbated by human activities; however, anoxic also prevailed naturally over Holocene. Few studies have characterized specific paleoredox (manganous, ferruginous, euxinic) and their frequency southern sub-basins during these ancient events. Here, we apply a suite of isotope systems (Fe, Mo, S) associated elemental proxies (e.g., Fe speciation...

Biocontrol and plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are important agricultural bioinoculants. This study aimed to prospect new potential bioinoculants for a more sustainable agriculture from ferruginous caves of the Brazilian Iron Quadrangle. Culturable bacteria, seven one canga soil sample, were evaluated biocontroller activity phytopathogens Xanthomonas citri subsp. Citri—Xcc306 (citrus can...
