Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in coastal wetlands: A review of their occurrences, toxic effects, and biogeochemical cycling
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-11)
Coastal wetlands, such as mangroves, seagrass beds, and salt marshes, are highlythreatened by increasing anthropic pressures, including chemical pollution. Persistentorganic pollutants (POPs) have attracted attention in ...
Critical review of the characteristics, interactions, and toxicity of micro/nanomaterials pollutants in aquatic environments
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022-01-07)
A wide range of contaminants of emerging concern such as micro/nanoplastics (MPs/PNPs) and metal-nanoparticles (Me-NPs) from anthropogenic activities have been identified in aquatic environments. The hazardous effects of ...
Fractal parameters of Talaromyces wortmannii as indexes of aromatic hydrocarbon pollution
(International Research Journals, 2011-11)
Fungal morphologies by fractal geometry were studied mainly for industrial applications, but the relation with environmental factors had been scarcely described. Fungi are conspicuous degraders, so, our aims were to isolate ...
Photocatalytic removal of metallic and other inorganic pollutants
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)
Studies on the photocatalytic transformation of inorganic species, especially metals (chromium, mercury, lead, uranium), metalloids (arsenic), and nitrate are discussed. The role of semiconductor energetics, type of ...
Cadmium, does its presence warn us of anthropogenic pollution?El cadmio, ¿su presencia nos alerta de la contaminación antropogénica?
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2019)
Fragility of nocturnal interactions: Pollination intensity increases with distance to light pollution sources but decreases with increasing environmental suitability
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
Light pollution represents a widespread long-established human-made disturbance and an important threat to nocturnal pollination. Distance from the niche centroid where optimal environmental conditions join may be related ...
Tactic Responses of Bacteria to Pollutants: Implications for the Degradation Efficiency of Microbial Biofilms
(Caister Academic Press, 2016)
In nature, microorganisms are mostly found attached to surfaces forming biofilm communities. The study of these biofilms is primarily focused on basic research to better understand their multicellular way of life, and ...
