The transfer of radionuclides discharged into rivers by nuclear facilities are conditioned by their solid/liquid fractionation, commonly represented by an equilibrium approach using the distribution coefficient K_d. This coefficient, largely used in modeling, assumes an instantaneous and completely reversible reaction. However, such assumptions are...

This data files containes the environmental and biological data used for the paper of Daumal et al. (2025): "The effect of a large-scale Nature-based Solution on the aquatic biodiversity in a gravel river in The Netherlands" Main stream, secondary channels, gravel lakes and tributaries in the Border Meuse valley were compared to analyze their contr...

During the last decades, fluvial sediment cores have been used to reconstruct and model pollution trends, especially for the post-1945 period. Ecological changes have been rarely studied in such recent sediment archives due to low organic levels and high hydro-sedimentary dynamics. Here, we address the challenge of reconstructing ecosystem changes ...

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
The mobilization of rare earth elements (REEs) in aquatic ecosystems is expected to rise significantly due to intensified exploitation, erosion, and climate change. As a result, more attention has been brought to study their environmental fate. However, our ability to assess contamination risks in freshwater organisms remains limited due to scarce ...

Carbon emission from Arctic rivers constitutes a positive feedback between the climate warming and C cycle. However, in case of rivers with extensive floodplains, the impacts of temporary water bodies and secondary channels on CO2 exchange with atmosphere, compared to the main stem and tributaries, remain strongly understudied. In order to quantify...

Carbon-14 (14C) has a natural origin but is also anthropogenically released from civil nuclear facilities. Due to its long decay period (half-life: 5700 ± 30 years), it is a persistent radionuclide in the environment. In rivers, the complex speciation of carbon makes the fate of industrial 14C difficult to track. This study reports a first overview...

Microplastics are emerging pollutants that cause health problems for aquatic organisms. Fish is one of the important organisms because of its consumption by humankind. The present study examines the abundance and prevalence of microplastics in freshwater fish species through a systematic review study while considering five important factors, i.e. w...

Sedimentation in port areas can have a significant impact on port operations and shipping safety. The accumulation of sediment material in the harbor area can cause a decrease in depth, limiting the size of ships that can enter the harbor. Our research aims to analyze the flow patterns and sedimentation rates in Royoq Harbor, a crucial step toward ...

Soil acts as storage for many toxic substances, including mercury and its compounds. However, in addition to its storage function, soil can also be a source of many substances to the aquatic environment. Methylmercury (MeHg) is one of the most toxic form of mercury (Hg) present in the environment. Some studies consider Poland to be one of the major...
