Spatial distribution and risk assessment of heavy metal in coastal waters of China.

Marine environmental research
In order to better understand the status of heavy metal pollution in surface seawater of China's coastal waters, this paper compiled research results on seven heavy metals (i.e. Hg, As, Cu, Cd, Cr, Pb, Zn) in surface seawater of 35 coastal areas of C...

Model-driven high-throughput zebrafish embryo assay for evaluating whole effluent toxicity variation across 100 full-scale wastewater treatment plants.

Water research
The zebrafish embryo is a valuable model for evaluating whole effluent toxicity (WET). However, the widely recognized acute toxicity indicator, based on International Organization of Standardization (ISO) methods, requires large numbers of embryos an...

Detection of ninhydrin-glyphosate in groundwater via the colour chart-assisted digital camera method.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy
This study introduces a novel application of a one-time and multistandard colour chart across three instruments using colour visible spectrophotometer (colour VS), digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras, and mobile camera (MC) analysis to quantify...

Novel PVDF mixed matrix membranes incorporated with green synthesized magnesium oxide nanoparticles for enhanced dye removal: Optimization using RSM, SOLVER, and ANN approach.

Environmental research
The application of nanofiltration membrane technology for removing pollutant dyes from industrial wastewater represents a significant advance in environmental remediation. This research explores the development and performance evaluation of a novel P...

Identifying and addressing challenges in gross pollutant trap maintenance: perspectives from the Australian stormwater industry.

Marine pollution bulletin
A common approach to removing pollution from stormwater is through the installation of gross pollutant traps (GPTs). However, GPTs are often not maintained effectively, leading to pollution accumulation and additional pollution bypassing into natural...

Exploring the nexus between coastal tourism growth and eutrophication: Challenges for environmental management.

Marine pollution bulletin
Coastal tourism has witnessed rapid growth over the past two decades, often accompanied by increasing environmental concerns, particularly eutrophication in sensitive marine zones. This study explores the relationship between coastal tourism expansio...

Water quality parameters retrieval and nutrient status evaluation based on machine learning methods and Sentinel- 2 imagery: a case study of the Hongjiannao Lake.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
A timely and accurate understanding of lake water quality is significant for maintaining ecological balance, ensuring water resource security, and promoting regional sustainable development. However, due to the varying numerical ranges and characteri...

Decoding the Plastic Patch: Exploring the Global Microplastic Distribution in the Surface Layers of Marine Regions with Interpretable Machine Learning.

Environmental science & technology
The marine environment is grappling with microplastic (MP) pollution, necessitating an understanding of its distribution patterns, influencing factors, and potential ecological risks. However, the vast area of the ocean and budgetary constraints make...

Machine learning predicts selectivity of green synthesized iron nanoparticles toward typical contaminants: critical factors in synthesis conditions, material properties, and reaction process.

Environmental research
Green synthesized iron nanoparticles (FeNPs) have gained popularity in contaminant removal due to their low cost and environmentally friendly properties. However, a gap remains in understanding how synthesis conditions (SC), material properties (MP),...

Recent advances in occurrence, biotreatment, and integrated insights into bacterial degradation of phthalic acid esters in aquatic environments.

Journal of hazardous materials
Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) are prevalent as emerging contaminants owing to their widespread use as plasticizers in industry. Despite their environmental and health risks, a limited understanding of PAE contamination in aquatic environments hinders t...
