Co-occurrence and interactions of pollutants, and their impacts on soil remediation—A review

TL;DR: With the development of industrialization and agriculture, the phenomenon of soil contamination by combination of potentially toxic elements and organic pollutants has been a terrible environmental problem as discussed by the authors, which has been identified as a serious environmental problem.

The interactions of composting and biochar and their implications for soil amendment and pollution remediation: a review

TL;DR: The interaction of biochar and composting and its implication for soil amendment and pollution remediation is reviewed and the future research required in this field is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of heavy metals and soil physicochemical properties on wetland soil microbial biomass and bacterial community structure.

TL;DR: The goal of this study was to identify the effects of HMs and soil physicochemical properties on soil microorganisms and prioritize some parameters that contributed significantly to soil microbial biomass (SMB) and bacterial community structure.

Variation of water level in Dongting Lake over a 50-year period: Implications for the impacts of anthropogenic and climatic factors

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors analyzed inter-and inner-annual variations of water level in Dongting Lake during the period of 1961-2010 to determine whether anthropogenic or climatic factors should be responsible for the variations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of dam construction on biodiversity: A review

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed 347 significant publications from 2000 to 2017 from the ISI Web of Knowledge database to discuss the effects of dam construction on biodiversity in freshwater wetlands and identify the future directions for research in this field.

Profiling of complex microbial populations by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis of polymerase chain reaction-amplified genes coding for 16S rRNA

TL;DR: Analysis of the genomic DNA from a bacterial biofilm grown under aerobic conditions suggests that sulfate-reducing bacteria, despite their anaerobicity, were present in this environment.

Temperature sensitivity of soil carbon decomposition and feedbacks to climate change

TL;DR: This work has suggested that several environmental constraints obscure the intrinsic temperature sensitivity of substrate decomposition, causing lower observed ‘apparent’ temperature sensitivity, and these constraints may, themselves, be sensitive to climate.

Multivariate Analysis of Ecological Data using CANOCO

TL;DR: In this article, a simple introduction to ordination methods and guidance on the correct interpretation of ordination diagrams is given for students and researchers dealing with complex ecological problems, such as the variation of biotic communities with environmental conditions or the response of Biotic communities to experimental manipulation.

Fragmentation and flow regulation of the world's large river systems

TL;DR: A global overview of dam-based impacts on large river systems shows that over half (172 out of 292) are affected by dams, including the eight most biogeographically diverse catchments, which can be used to identify ecological risks associated with further impacts onLarge river systems.
