Journal ArticleDOI
Current approaches to the revegetation and reclamation of metalliferous mine wastes
TL;DR: Different techniques of revegetation are available for temperate and arid, subtropical regions depending on the characteristics of the waste, including direct seeding with commercially available plants, use of cover and barrier systems and the enhancement of natural revegetations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zinc, lead and cadmium tolerance, uptake and accumulation by Typha latifolia
TL;DR: The data do not support the hypothesis that populations from metal-contaminated sites have evolved tolerance to Zn, Pb and Cd, but rather that T. latifolia shows constitutional tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zinc, Lead and Cadmium Tolerance, Uptake and Accumulation by the Common Reed,Phragmites australis(Cav.) Trin. ex Steudel
TL;DR: There was insufficient evidence to support the hypothesis that the metal-contaminated population has evolved to a Zn-, Pb- or Cd-tolerant ecotype but the results indicated some differentiation between the populations with that from Hong Kong being the least productive under the experimental conditions used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiversity, ecosystem function and plant traits in mature and immature plant communities
TL;DR: The relationship between diversity and biomass in BIODEPTH is compared with that at the long-term monitoring site at Bibury in Gloucestershire, UK (Dunnett et al. 1998), a natural plant community that has much in common with BI ODEPTH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Copper and nickel uptake, accumulation and tolerance in Typha latifolia with and without iron plaque on the root surface
TL;DR: The results showed no differences in root and shoot d.
