Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metal Mobility in Polluted Soils: Effect of Different TreatmentsMarta Susana Zubillaga, Emiliano Bressan, Raúl Silvio LavadoThe effects of biosolid compost and phytoremediation applied on the leaching of cadmium, copper, lead and zinc, through the different horizons of a superficially polluted soil were determined. The soil was from the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was contaminated with cadmium copper, lead and zinc. Leaching columns were used with three different horizons: A: 0.12 m A horizon, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecent Sedimentation Rate and Sediment Ages Determination of Kemaman-Chukai Mangrove Forest, Terengganu, MalaysiaB.Y. Kamaruzzaman, M.C. OngTwo 20 cm sediment cores were collected with a D-section corer in the Kemaman-Chukai mangrove forest and analyzed for 210Pbex (excess 210Pb) in order to understand the sedimentation pattern. The activities of 210Pb along with the 208Po tracer were measured by Alpha Spectrometry on a silicon surface barrier detector connected to a multi channel analyzer. Sedimentation rates were determined applying … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 9,303 accessesView PDFCite
