Agronomic practices for improving gentle remediation of trace-element-contaminated soils
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-01)
The last few decades have seen the rise of Gentle soil Remediation Options (GRO), which notably include in situ contaminant stabilization (“inactivation”) and plant-based (generally termed “phytoremediation”) options. For ...
Endophytic bacteria take the challenge to improve Cu phytoextraction by sunflower
(Springer (part of Springer Nature), 2015-01)
Endophytic bacteria from roots and crude seed extracts of a Cu-tolerant population of Agrostis capillaris were inoculated to a sunflower metal-tolerant mutant line, and their influence on Cu tolerance and phytoextraction ...
Phytomanagement and Remediation of Cu-Contaminated Soils by High Yielding Crops at a Former Wood Preservation Site: Sunflower Biomass and Ionome
(Frontiers Media, 2018-09-04)
This long-term field trial aimed at remediating a Cu-contaminated soil to promote crop production and soil functions at a former wood preservation site. Twenty-eight field plots with total topsoil Cu in the 198–1,169 mg ...
Assessing phytotoxicity of trace element-contaminated soils phytomanaged with gentle remediation options at ten European field trials
(Elsevier, 2017-12-01)
Gentle remediation options (GRO), i.e. in situ stabilization, (aided) phytoextraction and (aided) phytostabilisation, were implemented at ten European sites contaminated with trace elements (TE) from various anthropogenic ...
Heavy metal contamination in surface runoff sediments of the urban area of Vilnius, Lithuania
(Estonian Academy Publishers, 2017)
Surface runoff from urbanized territories carries a wide range of pollutants. Sediments in untreated runoff from direct discharge stormwater systems significantly contribute to urban waterway pollution. In this study, heavy ...
ESTIMATION OF THE GENETIC ACTIVITY OF HEAVY METALS SALTS ON CHANGING OF RECOMBINATION PARAMETERS IN DROSOPHILA
(Lviv University, 2014)
The effect of various concentrations of heavy metals salts (lead and mercury nitrates) on recombination parameters in drosophila is studied. It was demonstrated that these compounds have genetic activity and increase the ...
Floods on the territory of Polesie
(Elsevier, 2016)
The article presents the analysis of the formation of floods in Polesie on the r. Pripyat during the period of instrumental observations. Polesie is a unique physiographic region, located on the territory of four countries: ...
Morphological and functional responses of a metal-tolerant sunflower mutant line to a copper-contaminated soil series
(Springer (part of Springer Nature), 2018)
The potential use of a metal-tolerant sunflower mutant line for biomonitoring Cu phytoavailability, Cu-induced soil phytotoxicity, and Cu phytoextraction was assessed on a Cu-contaminated soil series (13–1020 mg Cu kg−1) ...
Magnetic properties and electronic structure of Bi0.75Sm0.25FeO3 multiferroic
(Elsevier, 2018-03)
Room temperature multiferroic Bi0.75Sm0.25FeO3 samples were synthesized using a solid-state reaction method under high-pressure conditions (∼4 GPA). The calculations of band structure, electronic and spin densities ...
Structure and dielectric properties of Bi0.80Gd0.20-xLaxFeO3 multiferroics
(Springer Verlag, 2018-06-02)
The structural and dielectric properties of Bi0.80Gd0.20–xLa x FeO3 (x = 0–0.20) samples are studied by means of X-ray diffraction and dielectric spectroscopy. Room-temperature dielectric functions are examined experimentally ...
