The Science of the total environment
To evaluate the environmental impact of receiving water from the Qinghe River sewage treatment plant (STP) effluents in Beijing, we collected sediments and Bellamya aeruginosa (Up-site, Discharge-site, and Down-site) both in 2017 and 2018 and analyzed the samples via chemical analysis, biological responses and transcriptomics. In two years of data,...

Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are an attractive option for treating acid mine drainage (AMD) and are considered to be of great significance in the natural attenuation of AMD, but the available information regarding the highly diverse SRB community in AMD sites is not comprehensive. The Hengshi River, which is continually contaminated by AMD from ...

The performance of lanthanum carbonate (LC) pertaining to the adsorption of phosphate (HwPO4w-3) was investigated, and the possible adsorption mechanism was elucidated. The stabilization of HwPO4w-3 adsorbed to LC was evaluated. The influence of LC addition on the upward transport of phosphorus (P) from sediment to overlying water (OL-W) was studie...

This study explored changes in the microbial community and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in maricultural clam sediment after 3-month co-culture with different densities (0, 5 and 12 g L-1) of seaweed Ulva fasciata (U. fasciata). The maximum removal rates of NO3--N, PO43--P, and inhibition of Vibrio culturability occurred at presence of 12 g L-...

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Coupling of nitrogen removal processes with nitrification (NRn) are vital synergistic nitrogen elimination mechanisms in aquatic environments. However, the effects of antibiotics on NRn are not well known. In the present work, 20-day continuous-flow experiments combined with 15N tracing techniques and quantitative PCR were performed to simulate the...

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
The present study focused on the occurrence, distribution and risk assessment of 32 pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in water and sediment, as well as the surrounding soil of the irrigation channels and lake of a Mediterranean coastal wetland, the Albufera Natural Park (Valencia, Spain). Moreover, the influent and effluent of ten ...

To address knowledge gaps and the lack of benchmarks on the toxicity of dilbit oiled sediments, weathered Cold Lake Blend (CLB) and Western Canadian Select (WCS) were assessed in 10-day sediment tests with the amphipods Hyalella azteca and Leptocheirus plumulosus. Lowest observed effect concentrations (LOECs) and 20% effect levels (EC20s) were dete...

The microplastics pollution in wild aquatic organisms has been described by many studies. However, few studies focused on the farmed ones and MPs impacts on their gut microbiota under natural conditions. Here, we present the first detection of MPs in shrimp ponds and Litopenaeus vannamei. We also globally, firstly and preliminarily investigate the ...

Largely uncontrolled exogenous heavy metals (HMs) are released into the sea which eventually deposit in the original inshore sediments. However, the migration of these HMs was commonly overlooked in previous studies, which makes it hard to determine the fate of these HMs and locate the high-risk HMs pollution areas. Therefore, the original inshore ...

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment
Adequate monitoring and data acquisition of proper hydraulic, sediment, and constituent parameters in alluvial watercourses have become crucial aspects of human interaction with the environment. Conducting well-organized, comprehensive, and meaningful field measurements on natural watercourses are of great importance when assessing its hydraulic, m...
