Mining operations generate sediment erosion rates above those of natural landscapes, causing persistent contamination floodplains. Riparian vegetation in mine-impacted river catchments plays a key role the storage/remobilization metal contaminants. Mercury (Hg) pollution from mining is global environmental challenge. This study provides an integrative assessment Hg storage riparian trees and soils along Paglia River (Italy) which drains abandoned Monte Amiata district, 3rd former producer worldwide, to characterize their as potential secondary source atmosphere case wildfire or upon anthropic utilization biomass. In nearby ranged between 0.7 59.9 μg/kg 2.2 52.8 mg/kg respectively. concentrations were below 100 μg/kg, recommended limit for quality solid biofuels. Commercially, contents have little impact on value locally harvested biomass pose no risk human health, although higher values (195-738 μg/kg) occasionally found. wildfire, up 1.4*10

Abstract From 2011 to 2019, mercury (Hg) stores and fluxes were studied in the small forested catchment Lesní potok (LES) central Czech Republic using watershed mass balance approach together with internal measurements. Mean input of Hg via open bulk deposition, beech throughfall spruce during periodwere 2.9, 3.9 7.6 μg m −2 year −1 , respectively. These values considerably lower than corresponding deposition reported early years 21st century from catchments Germany. Current precipitation inputs at unimpacted mountainous sites those The largest litterfall, averaging 22.6 17.8 for stands. average input, based on sum mean litterfall was 23.0 compared estimated output runoff 0.5 which is low other values. Thus, only ~2% exported stream runoff. Stream water weakly related dissolved organic carbon (DOC) but both concentrations positively correlated temperature. total soil pool averaged 47.5 mg 4% O‐horizon. Thus O‐horizon represents 72 current flux 3800 export flux.

We assessed total mercury (THg) concentrations and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in pristine managed hemiboreal peatlands Latvia, aiming to identify environmental factors that potentially affect their variation. The THg soil ranged from <1 µg kg−1 194.4 kg−1. No significant differences between disturbed undisturbed were found, however, the upper layer sites had significantly higher concentration. During May–August, mean CO2 (autotrophic heterotrophic respiration) 20.1 ± 5.0 104.6 22.7 mg CO2-C m−2 h−1, N2O −0.97 13.4 11.6 N2O-N but highest spatial variation was found for CH4 emissions—ranging 30.8 0.7 3448.9 1087.8 CH4-C h−1. observed, higher.

Former industrially contaminated sites are a burden from the past that still pose environmental risks. During second half of 20th century, Pavlodar region in North Kazakhstan had been part Soviet Union’s industrial system operated chlor-alkali plant (CAP). The former CAP discharged approximately 135 t Hg into nearby Lake Balkyldak with total losses to water, soil, and air estimated around 1000 t. Pollution by potentially toxic elements (PTEs) due currently active enterprises is an under-investigated concern region. present study aims provide much-needed update on situation area evaluating contamination other selected PTEs (As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Zn) surrounding environment urban zone. Soil, sediment, surface groundwater samples have collected several sampling campaigns carried out 2018 2019.

Further research exact territory needed, detailed human health risk characterization identify potential unacceptable risks strongly recommended.
