Soil nutrient imbalance is a global threat to food security and ecosystem sustainability but adding organic residues or constructing anthropogenic soils technosols can optimize it. However, FAO considers not “risk-free”, mainly due their heavy metal content. Despite the fact that applying pruning soil worldwide fertilization practice, its potential risk has been poorly studied. This work charac...

Soil salinization is an important global issue since marginal salt-affected soils have harmful consequences in agriculture and ecosystems. This article reviews different sustainable strategies adopted for soil reclamation Mediterranean climates. An innovative approach to salinity management includes a wide range of technologies, such as: phytoremediation, phytodesalination, vegetative bioremedi...

Open-cast coal mining presents a big global issue because of the large areas mines occupy, which get entirely changed. Their ecosystems lose most their functions, and huge amount fertile soil gets utterly destroyed. Reclamation is process returning functions after excavation finished, commonly achieved by establishing vegetation, can sometimes be very difficult. This happens due to physical, ch...

Investigating uranium migration mechanisms related to the weathering of waste rocks is essential for developing strategies that can address potential environmental issues caused by mining. This work based on samples containing 2 L ferrihydrite, lepidocrocite and goethite collected in technosols from granitic rock piles, mine drainage conduits waters. The results show important role iron oxyhydr...
