Human-Environment System Knowledge: A Correlate of Pro-Environmental Behavior

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of human-environment system knowledge (i.e., knowledge related to environmental problems caused by humans) and environmental action knowledge (knowledge of possible courses of action to reduce human impact on the environment) on pro-environmental behavior were compared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thresholds of copper phytotoxicity in field-collected agricultural soils exposed to copper mining activities in Chile.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed emergence and early growth (21 days) tests with perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L) and found that the shoot length of ry egrass is a robust response variable for metal toxicity assessment in contaminated soils with different nutrient availability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advanced determination of the spatial gradient of human health risk and ecological risk from exposure to As, Cu, Pb, and Zn in soils near the Ventanas Industrial Complex (Puchuncaví, Chile).

TL;DR: The concentrations of Cu, As, and Pb were positively correlated with each other, suggesting that their source is the Ventanas copper smelter, and correlations for Zn were weaker than for other trace elements, suggesting low impact of the Ventana copper smalter on spatial distribution of Zn.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solubility, partitioning, and activity of copper-contaminated soils in a semiarid region

TL;DR: In this paper, the fate of Cu in contaminated semiarid soils from two areas with different mining activities in central Chile was studied, and several regression models were evaluated to use soil physicochemical characteristics to predict solubility, partitioning, and activity of Cu.
Journal ArticleDOI

Constructed wetlands for domestic wastewater treatment in a Mediterranean climate region in Chile

TL;DR: In this article, a pilot plant with six horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetlands (HSSF CWs) with a surface area of 2 m 2 and a depth of 0.6 m each, planted with Typha latifolia or Scirpus sp., and filled with gravel (G) or fine gravel (FG) of 2.8 and 1.2 cm of diameter respectively, continuously fed with raw domestic wastewater.
