Mercury in Eisenia fetida and soil in the vicinity of a natural gas treatment plant in northern Croatia during the last ten years

(Corresponding) Prevendar Crnić A., Zgorelec Ž., Srebočan E., Kisić I.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

In this study total mercury concentrations in earthworms and in different soil types at the same locations from the surroundings of four boreholes were analyzed by ICP-MS method, as a part of a comprehensive monitoring of the eco-system in the vicinity of the natural gas production and treatment...Read more

Evaluating the water quality of stormwater runoffs in urban area

(Corresponding) Yang F., Gato-Trinidad S., Hossain I.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

This paper presents the results of stormwater quality monitoring from four constructed wetlands located in residential and industrial catchments. Preliminary results revealed that pollutants’ types and concentrations vary depending on the catchments’ characteristics. It is found that the...Read more

Panagopoulou G., (Corresponding) Paraskevopoulou V., Yfanti A., Anagnostou E., Vrettou E., Filippi G., Botsou F., Xarlis P., Andreopoulos N., Moratis D., Stergiou N., Chatziathanasiou C., Damianou R., Dalianis A., Tsiparis I., Dassenakis M.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

Anthropogenic metals (Cd, Cu, Hg, Pb, Zn) are chemical elements known for toxic effects when present in elevated concentrations. There are various sources of these metals to marine sediments. The presence and levels of anthropogenic metals in sediments may cause adverse implications to ecosystem...Read more
