Abstract: Arsenic (As) is commonly sequestered at the sediment–water interface (SWI) in mining-impacted lakes through adsorption and/or co-precipitation with authigenic iron (Fe)-(oxy)hydroxides or sulfides. The results of this study demonstrate that the accumulation of organic matter… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/10643389.2017.1400853
Abstract: ABSTRACT Mining activities generally decrease topsoil and vegetation, reduce soil biodiversity, and yield extremely harsh environmental conditions, which in turn limit natural revegetation and soil restoration. Ecological restoration of mining sites using beneficial microorganisms such… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17217916
Abstract: Effective risk communication strategies are critical to reducing lead exposure in mining-impacted communities. Understanding the strength of the associations between perceived risk and individuals’ behavioral intentions to protect their health is important for developing these… read more here.
