Urinary nickel excretion in populations living in the proximity of two russian nickel refineries: a Norwegian-Russian population-based study.
The Russian nickel refineries located in the cities of Nikel and Zapolyarny close to the Norwegian border are responsible for extensive sulfur dioxide and nickel pollution, as well as severe ecological damage in both countries. The aim of our study was to investigate human nickel exposure in the populations living on both sides of the Norwegian-Russian border. The design was a cross-sectional p...
متن کاملThe Impact of a Nickel-Copper Smelter on Concentrations of Toxic Elements in Local Wild Food from the Norwegian, Finnish, and Russian Border Regions
Toxic elements emitted from the Pechenganickel complex on the Kola Peninsula have caused concern about potential effects on local wild food in the border regions between Norway, Finland and Russia. The aim of this study was to assess Ni, Cu, Co, As, Pb, Cd, and Hg concentrations in local wild foods from these border regions. During 2013-2014, we collected samples of different berry, mushroom, f...
متن کاملCopper and Nickel Determination in Grape Extract Cultured around Marvast City,Yazd
Background: One of the most critical problems in the field of water and food pollution is the heavy metal pollution. Agricultural products are exposed to this type of contamination through wastewater; industrial activity and population pollutions are also in its area. Since the plant in the affected areas can directly enter heavy metals into the food chain, so, it is important to check their le...
متن کاملMonthly burned area and forest fire carbon emission estimates for the Russian Federation from SPOT VGT
Russian boreal forests contain around 25% of all global terrestrial carbon, some of which is released to the atmosphere when the forests burn. Whilst it is well known that fire is widespread in the boreal environment, there is a lack of good quality quantitative data on the extent of fire activity in Russian forests and on its interannual variation. This study provides one of the first comprehe...
متن کاملBioaccumulation of some heavy metals (Copper, Nickel, and Lead) and air pollution tolerance index of Prosopis juliflora and Conocarpus erectus species in Mahshahr, Iran
Background and Objective: Pollutants emitted from industries can endanger human health if they enter the food chain, so environmental monitoring is essential. The aim of this study was to investigate the bioaccumulation of heavy metals including lead, copper and nickel and the level of air pollution tolerance index in Prosopis juliflora and Conocarpus erectus tree species during one-year period...
