TL;DR: The risk of occurrence of adverse effects is highly possible, not only due to the dam failure, but alsodue to the Fe mining and the artisan Au mining, sustaining high inputs of SPM and metals for the years to come and threatening the ecosystem services.

TL;DR: The kinetics of adsorption and desorption were studied as a function of suspended particulate matter loading and salinity and showed that the position and slope of the pH edges are dependent on the metal and on the salinity of the water (except for Mn).

TL;DR: Measurements show that "exotic" trace elements used in new high-tech applications, such as Gd, are emerging contaminants in San Francisco Bay and that anthropogenic Gd concentrations increased substantially over a 20 year period and suggest that new public policies and the development of more effective treatment technologies may be necessary to control sources and minimize future contamination.

TL;DR: Concentrations of dissolved metals were determined for summer and winter, under low-flow conditions in Port Jackson, a microtidal, well-mixed estuary in south-east Australia, and provide a data set against which the long-term contamination may be assessed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the available and total particulate phases along an axial transect of the Port Jackson Estuary during twelve surveys between 1998 and 1999 and measured salinity, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen and suspended particulate material (SPM) were also measured.
