In coastal areas, microplastics (MPs) can deposit in sediment, allowing it to be ingested by benthic organisms, like mussels, thus creating a possible transfer to humans. The aim of this study is to evaluate MPs pollutio...

Abstract This study evaluated spatiotemporal variations in drinking water quality, pollution levels, and heavy metal contamination in key rural water sources including, 23 dams, eight minor lakes, and three swamps. A tot...

Microplastics are currently considered widespread marine pollutants, accumulating in sediments and shorelines around the world. Spatial distribution of microplastics in marine sediments is consequence of a combination of...

Contamination with anthropogenic debris, such as plastic and paint particles, has been widely investigated in the global marine environment. However, there is a lack of information regarding their presence in marine prot...

Surface water bodies receive a basin's wide diversity of pollutants, especially when there are mixed land uses. Among the many environmental tools to assess a body water quality, most studies use only a few. In addition ...

The objective of the present paper is to recognize and reconstruct, from the analysis of pollen recovered from sedimentary cores, the predominant plant communities and their variations during the Holocene in Corrientes A...

Abstract Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are persistent organic pollutants of global concern due to their widespread occurrence, environmental persistence, and well-documented adverse effects on human health. In ...

A palynomorph with an unequivocal relationship to the eight-grain polyads of the mimosoid genus Calliandra Benth., is described from the Miocene sediments of San Juan Province, Argentina. Comparison of the fossil palynom...

The widely distributed pollutant tributyltin (TBT) was analyzed in different environmental samples (waters and sediments) combining preconcentration on a nylon membrane, excitation–emission fluorescence matrices direct...

Rich in multiple strategic rare metals, deep-sea manganese nodules constitute an essential mineral resource for balancing terrestrial resource supply and demand and facilitating the global energy transition. Accurate pre...

We describe nine angiosperm fossil woods from sediments of the Cardiel Formation (Upper Cretaceous) near the Cardiel Lake, Santa Cruz Province, Argentinian Patagonia. On the basis of the characteristics of the anatomy, t...

Non-lethal biological techniques such as blood biomarkers have gained attention due to their value as early signals of anthropic effects of contamination representing significant tools to evaluate ecosystems health. We e...

The aim of this work is to assess the risk of groundwater contamination associated with BTEX dissolution from fuels as a residual phase. Numerical simulations of sixty scenarios were carried out with the software HYDRUS ...

ABSTRACT The expansion of the agricultural frontier into different geological environments in the west of the state of Pará, northern Brazil, makes it necessary to know the influence of the parent material on local soil...

A morphogroup analysis of the upper Hauterivian-lower Barremian foraminiferal assemblages from the Agua de la Mula Member of the Agrio Formation (Neuquén Basin, Argentina) reveled six associations based on benthic foram...

Benthic cyanobacteria research in high mountain reservoirs remains limited, mainly due to their complexity and knowledge gaps that persist in relation to their ecology in tropical regions. This study aimed to explore the...

La cadena andina presenta, desde los Andes Centrales hasta los Andes Patagónicos, una importante variación en su volumen orogénico. Recientemente se ha propuesto que esta variación estaría controlada por factores cl...

En este artículo se abordan las estrategias tecnológicas implementadas por los grupos humanos que habitaron el curso inferior del arroyo Corrientes a partir del análisis tecnomorfológico de materiales líticos recupe...

La Formación Vinchina fue depositada entre los 16 y 8 Ma en una cuenca de antepaís fracturada del noroeste de la Argentina, registrando sedimentación en ambientes continentales, alcanzando un espesor de 6 kilómetros....

Antibiotics have been found extensively in the environment, particularly in groundwater, sediments, and surface water. The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify antibiotic-resistant bacteria from wastewater c...
