Journal ArticleDOI
Biomonitoring of trace element air pollution: principles, possibilities and perspectives.
TL;DR: The discussion points towards more explicit coupling of biomonitoring data to knowledge and databases on both emission registration, ecosystem performance and human health, which means that multidisciplinary programs should be set up, which accommodate expert inputs from biomoniting, emission control programs, analytical chemistry, ecology, and epidemiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
The distribution of heavy metals in a transect of the three states the Netherlands, Germany and Poland, determined with the aid of moss monitoring
Uwe Herpin,Jürgen Berlekamp,Bernd Markert,Bert Wolterbeek,Krystyna Grodzińska,Ulrich Siewers,Helmut Lieth,Vera Weckert +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the use of moss analyses to determine possible metal pollution in a three-country transect consisting of the Netherlands, Germany and Poland is described; the results are presented in the form of coloured contour maps using the Geographic Information System (GIS) ARC-Info.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lichens as biomonitors for radiocaesium following the chernobyl accident
Joyce E. Sloof,Bert Wolterbeek +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured 137C activity in Xanthoria parietina and showed that the activity concentration could be expressed both on a dry weight and on a contour surface area basis.
Journal ArticleDOI
First thorough identification of factors associated with Cd, Hg and Pb concentrations in mosses sampled in the European Surveys 1990, 1995, 2000 and 2005

Zechmeister +39 more
TL;DR: Schroder et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the factors influencing Cd, Hg and Pb concentrations in mosses sampled within the framework of the European Heavy Metals in Mosses Surveys 1990-2005.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the road from environmental biomonitoring to human health aspects: monitoring atmospheric heavy metal deposition by epiphytic/epigeic plants: present status and future needs
Bernd Markert,Simone Wuenschmann,Stefan Fraenzle,Olaf Wappelhorst,Vera Weckert,Gerhard Breulmann,Rumjana Djingova,Uwe Herpin,Helmut Lieth,Winfried Schröder,Ulrich Siewers,Eiliv Steinnes,Bert Wolterbeek,Harald G. Zechmeister +13 more
TL;DR: For the past few years, a strong and intensive combined study by analytical scientists and biologists on bioindication and biomonitoring has developed as discussed by the authors, and to achieve a more public-related prophylactic healthcare feature derived from these biotechniques in the future, the collaboration between analytical scientists, ecotoxicologists and especially human toxicologists has to be strongly intensified and promoted.
