Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGeochemical Distribution of Trace Metals and Assessment of Anthropogenic Pollution in Sediments of Old Nakagawa River, Tokyo, JapanH.M. Zakir, Naotatsu Shikazono, Kazuo OtomoThe geochemical distributions of cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) were examined in sediments collected from Old Nakagawa River (NR), Tokyo, Japan. A widely used 5-step sequential extraction procedure was employed for the fractionation of the metals and the concentrations were measured in the liquid extracts by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The association … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparison of Microbial and Heavy Metal Contents in Soils and Roots under Mangrove Forest Stands with Different Levels of Pollution in the Niger River Delta, NigeriaAroloye Ofo NumbereOil and gas exploration in the Niger Delta, has resulted to increased heavy metal contamination. It is thus postulated that increased heavy metal will lead to decreased microbial content in soil and root. To test this hypothesis ten replicates each of soil and root samples were collected from already established sites. Samples were sent to the laboratory for analyses of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2017 · 8,177 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Review on Eco-Restoration of Rivers with Special Focus on Industrial Wastewater TreatmentK Srividya, Godwin Glivin, V Sreeja, M PremalathaRivers are the lifeline of an ecosystem, since every member of the ecosystem depends directly or indirectly upon them for their sustenance. Changes in the riparian conditions would strongly impact the ecosystem-to-organism interactions and inter-organism interactions. Due to lack of regulations and widespread use of technology for industrial wastewater treatment, most of the industrial discharge ends up in the river. … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 12 Jan 2021 · 7,165 accessesView PDFCite
