After the analysis of surface samples and core samples collected in Xinyanggang tidal land, the contents of Pb, Cu, Zn, and Cr were obtained and analyzed in this paper. The heavy metal accumulation rule and pollution status were studied by Index of geo-accumulation, latent ecological risk index method, and elements accumulation index method. The research suggests that (1) the contents of heavy ...

The short-term effects of low-level contamination by heavy metals (As, Cd, Cu, and Pb) on the soil health were examined by analyzing soil nematode community in soils planted with tomatoes. For this, the soils were irrigated with five metal concentrations ([1, 1/4, 1/4(2), 1/4(3), and 0] × maximum concentrations [MC] detected in irrigation waters near abandoned mine sites) for 18 weeks. Heavy me...

To accurately understand soil environmental quality and improve the problem of traditional method, which is that it has a single evaluation factor cannot reflect overall condition soil, complex geological heavy metal modeling method based on Nemerow index proposed. Index methods, ArcGIS technology, human health risk assessment were carried out to obtain spatial distribution metals in current st...

Aquatic environmental deterioration is becoming a serious problem due to rapid urbanization and economic development, particularly in developing countries. As two important components of the aquatic environment, water quality and sediment pollution are widely considered to be concerns; however, they are considered separately in most cases. The relationship between water quality and sediment pol...

heavy metals contamination is a major environmental problem which requires immediate human attention. the use of plant species to remove pollutants from soils, generally defined as phytoextraction. in order to evaluate phytoextraction of contaminated soils, a pot experiment conducted using two plants barley, canola three kinds of heavy metals (cd, pb, ni) with 3 levels in a completely randomize...

BACKGROUND No clear evidence is available in the literature regarding the acute effect of different styles of music on cardiac autonomic control. OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to evaluate the acute effects of classical baroque and heavy metal musical auditory stimulation on Heart Rate Variability (HRV) in healthy men. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this study, HRV was analyzed regarding time ...

In order to further research on the polluting condition and spreading features of heavy metals in urban surface soil, this study makes statistical analysis on indexes of 8 heavy metal concentrations. Then Are GIS geostatistical analyst was used for Kriging interpolation of each kind of heavy metal concentration before figuring out the spatial distribution. Firstly, heavy metal contamination was...
