This article examines Sassanian siege warfare and technology in the domains of ballistae, ‘scorpions’, catapults, and battering rams. Sassanian siege warfare necessitated the use of protection/shielding for personnel...

Abstract Beach erosion represents a major hazard to coastal regions worldwide, yet the role of fluvial floods remains an understudied component of beach dynamics. Accounting for fluvial flooding is essential, as its negl...

Mining wastes keep soil metal contents above toxicity thresholds many years after abandonment. The physical and chemical infertility of mining tailings makes them prone to high rates of erosion, posing an environmental t...

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo abordar el caso «Vargas,Ricardo Marcelo contra San Juan Provincia de y otros sobre Daño Ambiental»dentro del eje de trabajo propuesto «Desafíos de la Responsabilidad Ambiental...

In today’s conditions of growing anthropogenic pressure on aquatic ecosystems, the problem of heavy metal accumulation, including cobalt ions, is becoming particularly relevant. Cobalt ions can enter aquatic environmen...

Chattanooga has undergone a remarkable transformation from a heavily industrialized rail depot and one of the nation’s most polluted cities to the first designated National Park City in the United States of America...

This study focuses on implementing PowerApps to automate and optimize the calculation of the carbon footprint at ABB, a company dedicated to industrial process automation in the mining sector. The implementation not only...

This study examines the evolution of industrial waste generation within the Polish economy over the decade of 2010–2020. Rapid economic growth, structural shifts among sectors, and growing environmental awareness have ...

Given the limitations of different types of remote sensing images, automated land-cover classifications of the Amazon várzea may yield poor accuracy indexes. One way to improve accuracy is through the combination of ima...

Abstract Lithium (Li) recovery from secondary resources, such as mine waters, is essential to meet the increasing global demand. However, lithium in mine waters typically occurs at low concentrations, necessitating effic...

To investigate the influence mechanism of roof pre-splitting blasting on overlying strata movement in automated roadway formation without coal pillars, the mechanical response characteristics of the bearing structure of ...

Background Coal seams exhibit the extensive distribution of a variety of indigenous functional microorganisms. Among these, some archaea enable methane metabolism using CO2 as a substrate, providing the potential for the...

This study aimed to determine the presence of metal elements in fruits and leaves of three tree species as bioindicators in San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Ninety fruit and 90 leaf samples (30 per tree species) were collected a...

The tin industry in Indonesia is a major global producer, and mining and smelting processes can mobilize and concentrate Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM), particularly radionuclides from the 238U and 232T...

Abstract The residual coal pillar and adjacent goafs in the upper coal seam have a superposition effect on the stress environment of the lower coal seam in close distance coal seams with downward mining. Therefore, it is...

En las últimas décadas, se ha producido un aumento de los conflictos socioambientales en torno a la minería en América Latina como producto del impacto del modelo extractivista en las comunidades locales. A raíz de ...

The following paper is the second part of an article dealing with the mining accident that took place in 2000 in the Romanian town of Baia Mare, which has been described as one of the worst environmental disasters since ...

Gold mining plays a central role in Ghana’s national economy. However, conventional exploration approaches, particularly within artisanal and small‑scale mining sectors, often rely on trial‑and‑error methods ...

Abstract This study applies a stochastic framework to quantify Potentially Toxic Elements (PTEs) and related risks in soils of the Maluwe–Tinga–Wasipe corridor in the Savannah Region of Ghana. A total of 729 B-horizo...

ObjectiveLimestone water hazards in coal seam floors represent one of the two primary categories of mine water hazards in China. Limestone aquifers are generally characterized by abundant static water reserves and consid...

Desde 1990, en la academia se refiere a un giro en el modo de estudiar y comprender al espacio rural, que consiste en el desenfoque del debate agrarista y la ampliación de la mirada hacia las ruralidades. Dentro de esta...

Cadmium poses severe threats to ecosystems and human health due to its high toxicity and bioaccumulative nature. The global regulatory limits for Cd are often low at 0.1-0.6 mg kg−1, which is 1 to 2 orders of magnitude...

"En esta tesis argumentamos que la información de trayectorias también puede ser integrada con datos GIS y OLAP, generando un marco poderoso de análisis". "In this thesis we argue that trajectory information can also ...

El año 2000, un derrame de mercurio metálico que se evaporó en el ambiente, afectó la salud de más de mil campesinos, quienes, ocho años después, siguen sufriendo las consecuencias en su salud. La minería moderna...
