BIO-MONITORING OF RADIONUCLIDES AIR POLLUTION USING physiological responses of urban trees

2018-11-25 00:04:51 Keywords biomonitoring, Radionuclides, Air pollution, urban trees, Eucalyptus,

Contamination of environment by radionuclides in territories under urboecosystem conditions is an actual problem. The search for new express methods for radioactivity determination of environment is an important task of research. The present work evaluated the ability to use Eucalyptus globulus leaves to act as bio-monitor for environmental radionuclides air pollution. The accumulation features of radionuclides (226Ra, 232Th, 40K) in ... Read more

Capture of particulate pollution by trees: a comparison of species typical of semi-arid area (Ficus nitida and Eucalyptus globules) with European and North American species

2018-11-09 17:06:05 Keywords urban trees, semi arid area, particulate pollution, biomonitoring, capture efficiencies, deposition velocities, Trees,

Particulate pollution is a serious concern in developed countries especially in urban and suburban areas where it has adverse effects on human health, exacerbating a wide range of respiratory and vascular illnesses. Data are now available which indicate that similar problems probably occur in countries in transition and may indeed be worse where national air quality standards have been neither ... Read more
