Low-molecular-weight organic acids enable biochar to immobilize nitrate (2019)
Journal Article
Heaney, N., Ukpong, E., & Lin, C. (2020). Low-molecular-weight organic acids enable biochar to immobilize nitrate. Chemosphere, 240, 124872. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2019.124872

Batch experiments were conducted using two biochar materials produced from different feedstocks to examine the behavior of solution-borne nitrate in the presence and absence of three model low-molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs). The results show... Read More about Low-molecular-weight organic acids enable biochar to immobilize nitrate.

Heavy metal contamination status in soil-plant system in the Upper Mersey estuarine floodplain, Northwest England. (2019)
Journal Article
Enya, O., Lin, C., & Qin, J. (2019). Heavy metal contamination status in soil-plant system in the Upper Mersey estuarine floodplain, Northwest England. Marine Pollution Bulletin, 146, 292-304. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2019.06.026

Globally, soil contamination by heavy metals is common in estuarine floodplains. A study was conducted to assess heavy metal contamination in the soil-plant system in Mersey estuarine floodplain, North West England. Representative composite soil samp...

Trace element uptake by herbaceous plants from the soils at a multiple trace element-contaminated site (2019)
Journal Article
Nworie, O., Qin, J., & Lin, C. (2019). Trace element uptake by herbaceous plants from the soils at a multiple trace element-contaminated site. Toxics, 7(1), 3. https://doi.org/10.3390/toxics7010003

The uptake of trace elements by wild herbaceous plants in a multiple trace element-contaminated site was investigated. The bioaccumulation factor (BF) of trace elements was markedly variable among the different plant species. On average, the BF for v...
