Soil Pb concentrations at urban agriculture sites (UAS) commonly exceed recommended safe levels. There is a lack of evidence regarding uptake of Pb by gardeners using such sites for food crops. Our study aimed to elucidate whether gardening in soil with raised Pb levels results in Pb body burdens of concern to health, and to assess confounding factors influencing Pb body burden. Our cross-sectiona...... hiện toàn bộ
Indoor exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons associated with solid fuel use in rural ChinaEnvironmental Geochemistry and Health - Tập 45 - Trang 8761-8770 - 2023

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widespread environmental contaminants associated with various health risks including lung cancer. Indoor exposure to PAHs, particularly from the indoor burning of fuels, is significant; however, long-term large-scale assessments of indoor PAHs are hampered by high costs and time-consuming in field sampling and laboratory experiments. A simple fuel-based ...... hiện toàn bộ
The application of geographic information systems to geochemical studies in JamaicaEnvironmental Geochemistry and Health - Tập 18 - Trang 99-104 - 1996

The Centre for Nuclear Sciences (CNS) uses a raster based geographic information system (GIS), integrated with a relational database to store information on point sampled data, including concentrations of over 50 elements and/or ions in a variety of sample materials. These data are filtered in the GIS to create surface layers and are assigned colours according to percentile ranges allowing visual ...... hiện toàn bộ

Potential topsoiling strategies for enhancement of vegetation diversity on mined landsEnvironmental Geochemistry and Health - Tập 6 - Trang 115-120 - 1984
Edward J. DePuit
Topsoiling methods may exert a strong influence on diversity of vegetation on mined lands. Actual. potential, and/or hypothetical effects of various topsoil application and management practices on diversity both within and among plant communities are discussed. Specific partices/principles addressed include direct place topsoiling, supplemental top-dressing, multiple lift topsoiling, topsoil manag...... hiện toàn bộ
