Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Mining Revealing Recent Microplastics Pollution of Freshwater in ChinaZhuo-Yuan Xie, De-Sheng PeiThis review mainly discusses the characteristics and correlation of microplastics (MPs) in freshwater systems under various geographical environments in China. The distribution and source of MPs are analyzed and their spatial analyses are performed using the GIS method. Besides, the current and future situation of microplastic pollution in China is further evaluated through data mining. Results indicate that recent studies … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 25 Jun 2022 · 6,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBaseline Concentrations of 11 Elements as a Function of Land uses in Surface Soils of the Katangese Copperbelt Area (D.R. Congo)Martin T. Mpinda, Tresor N. Kisimba, Theodore M. Mwamba et al.The Katangese Copperbelt Area (KCA) located south-eastern of D.R. Congo presents high concentration of Metal Trace Elements (MTE) due to a rich natural geochemical background and intense mining activities. However, the lack of data on specific baseline concentrations makes it difficult to assess and monitor the environmental quality of soils in the region.
