Essentiality of nickel and homeostatic mechanisms for its regulation in terrestrial organisms
Environmental Reviews - Tập 10 Số 4 - Trang 209-261 - 2002
T Phipps, Sujata Tank, Jürgen Wirtz, Lawrence D. Brewer, Aaron S. Coyner, Lisa S. Ortego, Amy A. Fairbrother
Nickel (Ni) is a naturally occurring element with many industrial uses, including in stainless steel, electroplating, pigments, and ceramics. Consequently, Ni may enter the environment from anthropogenic sources, resulting in locally elevated concentrations in soils. However, Ni is a minor essential element, and, therefore, biota have established systems that maintain Ni homeostasis. This ...... hiện toàn bộ
A review of bioconcentration factor (BCF) and bioaccumulation factor (BAF) assessments for organic chemicals in aquatic organisms
Environmental Reviews - Tập 14 Số 4 - Trang 257-297 - 2006
Jon A. Arnot, Frank A. P. C. Gobas
Bioaccumulation assessment is important in the scientific evaluation of risks that chemicals may pose to humans and the environment and is a current focus of regulatory effort. The status of bioaccumulation evaluations for organic chemicals in aquatic systems is reviewed to reduce uncertainty in bioaccumulation measurement, to provide quality data for assessment, and to assist in model dev...... hiện toàn bộ
A review of drought indices
Environmental Reviews - Tập 19 Số NA - Trang 333-349 - 2011
Amin Zargar, Rehan Sadiq, Gholamreza Naser, Faisal Khan
Antibiotic resistance genes as an emerging environmental contaminant
Environmental Reviews - Tập 24 Số 2 - Trang 205-218 - 2016
Haley Sanderson, Colin Fricker, R. Stephen Brown, Anna Majury, Steven N. Liss
Emerging contaminants, including pharmaceutical and personal care products, are receiving considerable attention owing to their potential to negatively impact the environment and to pose risks to human health. The widespread use of antibiotics and their fate and transport in the environment pose further risks with respect to public health and the development of antibiotic resistant organis...... hiện toàn bộ
The social, economic, and environmental importance of inland fish and fisheries
Environmental Reviews - Tập 24 Số 2 - Trang 115-121 - 2016
Abigail J. Lynch, Steven J. Cooke, Andrew M. Deines, Shannon D. Bower, David B. Bunnell, I. G. Cowx, Vivian M. Nguyen, Joel K. Nohner, Kaviphone Phouthavong, Betsy Riley, Mark W. Rogers, William W. Taylor, Whitney M. Woelmer, So‐Jung Youn, T. Douglas Beard
Though reported capture fisheries are dominated by marine production, inland fish and fisheries make substantial contributions to meeting the challenges faced by individuals, society, and the environment in a changing global landscape. Inland capture fisheries and aquaculture contribute over 40% to the world’s reported finfish production from less than 0.01% of the total volume of water on...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of N deposition on decomposition of plant litter and soil organic matter in forest systems
Environmental Reviews - Tập 5 Số 1 - Trang 1-25 - 1997
B. Berg, Egbert Matzner
The effects of nitrogen (N) deposition on plant litter and soil organic matter decomposition differ depending on the stage of decomposition (early, late, and final stages). The effects can be divided further into direct and indirect ones. Direct effects: additions of ammonium and nitrate to fresh, newly shed litter stimulate the initial decomposition of celluloses and solubles. By contras...... hiện toàn bộ
Four priority areas to advance invasion science in the face of rapid environmental change
Environmental Reviews - Tập 29 Số 2 - Trang 119-141 - 2021
Anthony Ricciardi, Josephine C. Iacarella, David C. Aldridge, Tim M. Blackburn, James T. Carlton, Jane A. Catford, Jaimie T. A. Dick, Philip E. Hulme, Jonathan M. Jeschke, Andrew M. Liebhold, Julie L. Lockwood, Hugh J. MacIsaac, Laura A. Meyerson, Petr Pyšek, David M. Richardson, Gregory M. Ruiz, Daniel Simberloff, Montserrat Vilà, David A. Wardle
Unprecedented rates of introduction and spread of non-native species pose burgeoning challenges to biodiversity, natural resource management, regional economies, and human health. Current biosecurity efforts are failing to keep pace with globalization, revealing critical gaps in our understanding and response to invasions. Here, we identify four priority areas to advance invasion science ...... hiện toàn bộ
An evaluation of the ecological hazards associated with cadmium in the Canadian environment
Environmental Reviews - Tập 2 Số 1 - Trang 91-107 - 1994
P.M. Outridge, Donald D. MacDonald, Emily Porter, Iain D. Cuthbert
This review was conducted to evaluate the potential hazards associated with releases of cadmium (Cd) into the Canadian environment. The hazard assessment consists of three elements: a focused review of the available data on the toxicology of Cd in various environmental media, a review of the available information on the concentrations of Cd in the Canadian environment, and a comparison of...... hiện toàn bộ
Climate change vulnerability and adaptation in the managed Canadian boreal forest
Environmental Reviews - Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 256-285 - 2014
Sylvie Gauthier, Pierre Y. Bernier, Philip J. Burton, Jason Edwards, Kendra Isaac, Jean Bousquet, Karelle Jayen, Héloïse Le Goff, Elizabeth A. Nelson
Climate change is affecting Canada’s boreal zone, which includes most of the country’s managed forests. The impacts of climate change in this zone are expected to be pervasive and will require adaptation of Canada’s forest management system. This paper reviews potential climate change adaptation actions and strategies for the forest management system, considering current and projected cli...... hiện toàn bộ
Anaerobic digestion from the viewpoint of microbiological, chemical, and operational aspects — a review
Environmental Reviews - Tập 18 Số NA - Trang 255-278 - 2010
T. Amani, Mohsen Nosrati, T.R. Sreekrishnan
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is intrinsically a sequential complex chemical and biochemical process, and many factors (microbiological, operational, and chemical) can affect its performance. The great complexity of AD may lead to many serious problems (such as instability, long retention times, low efficiency, and high polluted supernatant) that prevent this technique from being widely used an...... hiện toàn bộ
