The ozone data obtained from the satellite (AUREA) and the sensor Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) were used to study the temporary and spatial variability of the total ozone column (TOC) in 8 different cities in Mato Grosso do Sul (MS)—Brazil, during the period 2005–2020. The monthly average values of TOC show maximum values in September and mini...

Maianthemumbifolium (L.) F. W. Schmidt is a clonal plant with a wide geographical range throughout Europe and Asia. It is also abundant as an understory plant of acid beech forests in southern Poland. The response strategies of this species to heavy metals and their effects on some functional traits (height, specific leaf area (SLA), leaf dry matte...

The major biomass burning tracers are thermal degradation products from the biopolymer cellulose, namely the didehydromonosaccharide derivatives levoglucosan, galactosan, and mannosan and the resin acid derivative dehydroabietic acid, with a minor contribution from β-sitosterol. Levoglucosan, galactosan, and mannosan were measured at two sites in S...

Silicon (Si) is known as an attenuator for water deficit through increasing water status. The mechanisms involved in Si to mitigate this stress may be linked to decreasing oxidative stress and increasing phenolic compounds, associated with stoichiometric homeostasis of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and Si, although there is a lack of research especiall...

Amorphous mesoporous titania (AM-TiO2) was prepared through the solvothermal-assisted sol–gel method. AM-TiO2 exhibited a large specific surface area (675 m2/g) and a high adsorption capacity (252.7 ± 5.6 mg/g) for the removal of Sb(III) from aqueous solution, which was beyond the majority of previously reported Sb(III) adsorbent. The isotherms and...

This paper analyzes the effects of ethnic and religious diversity on air pollution for 187 countries around the world (categorized into high-income, middle-income and low-income countries) from 1990 to 2020. We determine the long-run relationship between the variables using panel-fixed effects and GMM models. Air pollution emission factors are spat...

Enzyme activity plays an important role in the functioning of aquatic ecosystems. It is sensitive to changes in environmental conditions such as pH, temperature, and nutrient concentration. The objective of this work was to determine the acid phosphatase activity (AcPA) in the Almendares and San Juan rivers (western Cuba) and its relationship with ...

The effect of toxic metals on roots is mainly studied in laboratory single-species experiments. Data for multi-species plant communities obtained in natural conditions are needed to understand ecosystem functioning under pollution. However, information on the industrial emission effects on the below-ground biomass is fragmentary and contradictory. ...

The rapid growth of the agriculture sector has been facing environmental issues with agriculture waste generation. Agriculture biomass is a good source for biochar production through the pyrolysis process. Biochar is a highly carbonaceous material and has been widely studied on its potential to improve soil quality. It is essential to understand an...
