Floods can severely impact the economy, environment and society. These impacts can be direct and indirect. Past research has focused more on the former impacts. Of the indirect impacts, those on mold growth in indoor environments that affect human re...
The persistence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in surface water can pose risks to ecosystems, while due to data limitations, the occurrence, risks, and future trends of PFAS at large scales remain unknown. This study investigated the e...
Ozone (O) is a significant contributor to air pollution and the main constituent ofphotochemical smog that plagues China. Nitrogen dioxide (NO) is a significant air pollutant and a critical trace gas in the Earth's atmosphere. The presence of O and N...
Chemically induced neurotoxicity is a critical aspect of chemical safety assessment. Traditional and costly experimental methods call for the development of high-throughput virtual screening. However, the small datasets of neurotoxicity have limited ...
Identifying and differentiating human activities is crucial for effectively preventing the threats posed by environmental pollution to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Machine learning (ML) is a powerful analytical tool for tracking human impacts...
Tire wear particles (TWPs) are generated with every rotation of the tire. However, obtaining TWPs under real driving conditions and revealing key factors affecting TWPs are challenging. In this study, we obtained a TWPs dataset by simulating tire wea...
In numerical model simulations, data assimilation (DA) on the initial conditions and bias correction (BC) of model outputs have been proven to be promising approaches to improving PM (particulate matter with an aerodynamic equivalent diameter of ≤ 2....
Quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) have been used to predict mixture toxicity. However, current research faces gaps in achieving accurate predictions of the mixture toxicity of azole fungicides. To address this gap, the application...
Pesticides typically co-occur in agricultural surface waters and pose a potential threat to human and ecosystem health. As pesticide screening in global agricultural surface waters is an immense analytical challenge, a detailed risk picture of pestic...
Biochar application in soils is increasingly advocated globally for its dual benefits in enhancing agricultural productivity and sequestering carbon. However, lingering concerns persist regarding its environmental impact, particularly concerning its ...
