in the recent years, agricultural soils have received more chemicals in various forms for higher yields. this may result in the accumulation of metals in soils which subsequently may be transferred into the agricultural crops. in the present investigation, nickel content of 58 composite soil samples and also agricultural crops, is studied. ni in samples of soil and agricultural products were ex...

Accumulation of trace metals in sediment can cause severe ecological impacts. The present study determines the elemental concentrations and chemical partitioning of heavy metals in surface sediment of Shadegan wetland. Shadegan wetland is one of the most important wetlands in southwest of Iran and it is in Ramsar-listed wetlands. For this purpose, 7 sampling stations were selected for sediment ...

introduction we can obtain useful information about aquatic systems by studying heavy metals in surface sediments. marine sediments can bring out the aquatic contamination. due to heavy metal toxicity, hard biodegradation and easy bioaccumulation in aquatic ecosystems, various indices have been developed such as sediment quality guidelines (sqgs), enrichment factor (ef), pollution load index (i...

lead as non-essential metal, is known the source of toxicity and impacts on the environment and humans. the goal of recent paper is to determine the pb concentration of road and road margin dust of ghamishlu wildlife refuge in isfahan province with an area about 120,000 hectares surrounded by four main roads. traffic load in the southern freeway have been reported as about 3600-19000 cars/day. ...

djendjen river is one of the largest rivers in the region of jijel (algeria). human activities such as urban discharges, industrial, agricultural, and livestock have significant effects on the quality of water. the present study attempts to evaluate the quality of water along the banks of the djendjen river at different sampling sites, using physico-chemical and bacteriological methods. the col...

introduction: among the environmental pollutions, noise is very important for its physiological  and psychological effects on human. traffic noise is one of the most important pollutants and the  hospitals  are  one  of  the  critical  places  regarding  this  type  of  noise.  for  these  reasons,  in  the  summer  of  1382,  the  traffic  noise  of  mashhad  main  streets  around  the  hospit...

background: given the increasing importance of suspended particles and reporting weather conditions in the amount of ultraviolet radiation in many countries, in this study, the data of the maximum amounts of pollution by suspended particles with the size of 10, 2.5 and1 microns (pm10, pm2.5, pm1) which were reported in 1-hour time-series and global ultraviolet index (uvi) were used to predict t...
