Global maps of soil temperature
(
Wiley
, 2022 , Article)
Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation ...
Editorial: Challenges in characterizing nano- to macro-plastics and adhered substances in the aquatic environment
(
Frontiers Media
, 2022 , Other)
Globally, plastic contamination is one of the serious planetary threats, affecting almost all environmental matrices such as air, water, soil, sediment, and biota (including humans). It is estimated that ∼19 to 23 million ...
The impacts of water level fluctuations from paddy fields and aquaculture ponds on wetland habitats for wintering waterbirds: Implications for wetland management
(
Frontiers Media
, 2022 , Article)
The distribution and composition of wetland habitats for wintering waterbirds are heavily influenced by water level fluctuations. Through polder construction and aquaculture activities, paddy fields and aquaculture ponds ...
Detection and assessment of marine litter in an uninhabited island, Arabian Gulf: A case study with conventional and machine learning approaches
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
In 2018, the Ministry of Municipality and Environment, Qatar removed 90 t of marine litter (ML) from the Ras Rakan Island (RRI), a remote uninhabited island in the Arabian Gulf (hereinafter referred to as Gulf). To identify ...
Substantiation of propitious “Enzybiotic” from two novel bacteriophages isolated from a wastewater treatment plant in Qatar
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
Lysin of bacteriophages isolated from a particular ecosystem could be inducted as a bio-controlling tool against the inhabiting pathogenic bacterial strains. Our study aims at both experimental and computational characterization ...
Winters are changing: snow effects on Arctic and alpine tundra ecosystems
(
Canadian Science Publishing
, 2022 , Article)
Snow is an important driver of ecosystem processes in cold biomes. Snow accumulation determines ground temperature, light conditions and moisture availability during winter. It also affects the growing season’s start and ...

Emissions of atmospheric pollutants are rapidly increasing over South Asia. A greater understanding of seasonal variability in aerosol concentrations over South Asia is a scientific challenge and has consequences due to a ...
Distribution, pollution, and human health risks of persistent and potentially toxic elements in the sediments around Hainan Island, China
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Human activities have changed the global concentration of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and significantly altered the marine ecosystem. Little is known about the concentrations of these PTEs around Hainan Island in ...
A green method for removing chromium (VI) from aqueous systems using novel silicon nanoparticles: Adsorption and interaction mechanisms
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
In the present study, we used the horsetail plant (Equisetum arvense) as a green source to synthesize silicon nanoparticles (GS-SiNPs), considering that it could be an effective adsorbent for removing chromium (Cr (VI)) ...
