The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is home to the headwaters of major rivers in Asia, yet their water quality security on a large spatial scale is scarcely studied, especially in regard to emerging organic pollutants. In this study, a systematic field campaign was carried out along Yarlung Tsangpo River, Nu River, Lancang River and Jinsha River, and 13 perfl...

Hydrophilic cyanotoxins (HCTs), such as paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs), anatoxin-a (ATX-a), and cylindrospermopsin (CYN) are highly toxic and toxin-producing algae are widely distributed worldwide. However, HCTs, especially PSTs, are rarely reported in freshwater due to analytical limitations. This may result in an underestimation of the ecologi...

Although some studies on vegetation cover in relation to the land surface temperature (LST) and land surface moisture (LSM) have been carried out, but not yet been investigated in relation to the pre-disaster and after-tsunami disasters. This paper investigates the spatial extent of vegetation cover density, land surface temperature, and land surfa...

Ammonia (NH3) measurements were performed with a mobile platform deploying a cavity ring-down spectroscopy NH3 analyzer in Beijing. The transect and loop sampling strategy revealed that the Beijing urban area is more strongly affected by NH3 emissions than surrounding areas. Although average enhancements of on-road NH3 were small compared to backgr...

Dietary intake is a crucial pathway of organophosphate esters (OPEs) exposure for human. However, information about the exposure risk of OPEs via rice consumption is still largely unknown. In the present study, a total of 234 rice samples from 25 provinces or city of China were collected and the concentrations of 24 OPEs were determined. Sixteen OP...

Egyptian Mediterranean coast receives significant amounts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from industrial exhausts, riverine inputs, maritime shipping and fishers, and oil and natural gas production and exploration. The present study considers the first exhaustive assessment for the dissolved PAHs along the Egyptian Mediterranean coast (...

Paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) producing algae are widely distributed in the global coastal aquatic environment, posing a threat to coastal ecosystem health and mariculture safety. However, the levels and potential environmental risks of PSTs frequently detected in shellfish remain largely unexplored in seawater of mariculture zones. In this stu...

With the rapid development of urbanization, heavy metal pollution of soil has received great attention. Over-enrichment of heavy metals in soil may endanger human health. Assessing soil pollution and identifying potential sources of heavy metals are crucial for prevention and control of soil heavy metal pollution. This study introduced a spatial di...

The distribution, risks, and sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) observed in seawater and sediments in the Bohai Sea were reviewed. The ecological risk of total PAHs in seawater was low, but the ecological risks of several individual PAHs (Pyr, BbF, and IcdP) were high. Detected PAHs in sediments rarely had adverse biological effects...

We compared uptake rates and concentrations of gaseous elemental mercury (GEM) by passive sampling conditions and investigated the spatial distribution of GEM in Ulsan, the largest industrial city in South Korea. For the optimization of sampling conditions, two outer sampling containers (cylindrical polyethylene terephthalate and two stainless stee...
