Environmental Chemistry of the Elements

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive and critical rather than encyclopaedic summary of the data of environmental chemistry is presented, focusing on air, water, rocks and soils; the cycling of C, N, H, O2 and S in the biosphere are covered in 1 chapter and the elemental Other CABI sites are discussed.

Antimony uptake by mangroves and its environmental fate in the Sundarbans, India

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the biogeochemistry of Sb in the Sundarbans mangroves by measuring Sb concentration in sediment, plant organs, river water, sea water and pore water, and determining Sb fluxes within the ecosystem reservoirs.

Antimony(III) complexing with O-bearing organic ligands in aqueous solution: An X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy and solubility study

TL;DR: The stability and structure of aqueous complexes formed by trivalent antimony (SbIII) with carboxylic acids (acetic, adipic, malonic, lactic, oxalic, tartaric, and citric acid), phenols (catechol), and amino acids (glycine) having O-and N-functional groups typical of natural organic matter, were determined at 20 and 60 °C from solubility and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements as mentioned in this paper.

An investigation of inorganic antimony species and antimony associated with soil humic acid molar mass fractions in contaminated soils

TL;DR: Size exclusion chromatography-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (SEC-ICP-MS) analysis of humic acids isolated from the two contaminated soils demonstrated that Sb has complexed to humic acid molar mass fractions and indicated that humic fatty acids have the ability to arrest the mobility of Sb through soils.

Phosphorus Sorption and Desorption Properties of the Spodic Horizon from Selected Florida Spodosols

TL;DR: In this article, the conditions under which P can be retained in or released from the spodic horizon of Florida Spodosols have not been adequately investigated, and the P sorption and desorption properties of the horizon were evaluated.

Trace metal geochemistry in mangrove sediments and their transfer to mangrove plants (New Caledonia)

TL;DR: Assessment of the distribution of some trace metals in the tissues of various mangrove plants developing downstream highly weathered ferralsols in New Caledonia found Cu and Zn metals had a greater mobility in the plant, and were characterized by high bioconcentration and translocation factors compared to the other metals.
