Mobility and bioavailability of lead in contaminated boreal forest soil

Article Abstract:

In this study, the effects of pine and liming on the mobility and bioavailability of Pb (lead) in boreal forest soil were studied. A positive correlation was discovered between the concentration of total water soluble Pb and the bioavailability of Pb in the soils. The article is broken down into an introduction, a discussion of the experiment and its results.

210Pb Atmospheric Flux and Growth Raters of a Microbial Mat from the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea (Ebo River Delta)

Article Abstract:

Researchers in Spain have shown that 210Pb can be effectively used to track growth rates of microbial mats, which in tern can be used as an environmental archive.
