Technology and technological education are fundamental for promoting a country’s development. A country that does not produce its own technology is doomed todepend on the production of other nations, leading to excessi...

Abstract This study introduces a novel nonlinear mathematical model by considering three dynamic variables: densities of human population and industries, and concentration of atmospheric pollutants. The formulated model ...

This integrative review synthesizes current knowledge on the physiological responses and adaptive mechanisms of amphibians and reptiles to multiple interacting environmental stressors, with particular emphasis on synergi...

The expanding deployment of biodegradable mulch films in global agriculture aims to mitigate persistent plastic pollution, yet the fate of resulting biodegradable microplastics (BMPs) in soil ecosystems remains poorly ch...

Abstract Background Air pollution poses a significant threat to global public health. While broad mitigation policies exist, an understanding of the economic consequences, both in terms of health benefits and mitigation ...

Abstract Air pollution is the most significant environmental risk factor for all-cause mortality, and it has caused substantial disability-adjusted life-years and economic loss. Air pollution intensified the mortality d...

Emissions of human-use antibiotics in China pose a significant threat to aquatic ecosystems and accelerate the spread of antimicrobial resistance. Existing assessments lack the facility-level resolution required for effe...

The effect of urban trees as a noise mitigating element was determined on Alameda Avenue in the city of Talca, Chile, a Mediterranean continental area. Maximum and minimum noise, especially generated from vehicles, was r...

Abstract Background Air pollution particles exacerbate allergic asthma and can enhance inflammatory responses to allergen exposure, but the cellular mechanisms involved remain incompletely defined. We examined how diesel...

Abstract Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a significant air pollutant in the Indo Gangetic Basin (IGB), where levels frequently exceed national and WHO air quality standards. Ground observations from 183 CPCB automatic...

This work presents the integration of a gas-phase and particulate atmospheric emission inventory (AEI) for Argentina in high spatial resolution (0.025×0.025; approx. 2.5km×2.5 km) considering monthly variability from 1...

De modo geral, a mineração causa impacto significativo ao meio ambiente, pois quase sempre o desenvolvimento dessa atividade implica supressão de vegetação, exposição do solo aos processos erosivos com alteraçõe...

Intensive conventional agriculture and climate change have induced severe ecological damages and threatened global food security, claiming a reorientation of agricultural management and public policies towards a more sus...

The Macao national observation and research station for coastal ecological environment (Macao field station) played a critical role in advancing research on coastal ecological environments and climate change. Its primary...

The acidic cleaning wastewater generated during printed circuit board(PCB) manufacturing contains copper ions(Cu2+) at concentrations of 2-6 g/L. The recovery of these copper ions holds significant importance for promoti...

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of roadside green infrastructure in reducing particulate matter-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PM-bound PAHs) in urban soils and to assess the associated human heal...

Cadmium (Cd) accumulation in rice poses a serious threat to food safety. While soil amendments with manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn) can reduce Cd accumulation in rice, their distinct modes of action remain unclear, hinderin...
