This review focuses primarily on terrestrial ecosystems and aims to address some key features of anthropogenic pollutants, in particular organic endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) and heavy metals.

Jul 8, 2024 · Outdoor air pollution contains numerous substances of both natural (e.g., pollen, mold spores, dust) and anthropogenic (human-caused) origin. Anthropogenic emissions are of particular interest because they can be decreased through regulatory and voluntary actions, leading to air quality improvements.

Jan 2, 2022 · Below, we highlight several examples thereof, and suggest a way forward toward consolidating research and policy efforts to better address the biodiversity crisis by rendering proper attention to anthropogenic chemical pollution as driver of biodiversity loss.

Our developed system for analysis provides for obtaining information on the pollution sources, the impact of non-decontaminated waste on the environment, and assessing the reaction mechanism of natural entities to anthropogenic substances.

Nov 10, 2019 · Anthropogenic contaminants (ACs) are substances found in the environment due to human activities (Rhind, 2009), and can effects the living organisms, directly or indirectly.

Nov 27, 2009 · Pollutants, including synthetic organic materials and heavy metals, are known to adversely affect physiological systems in all animal species studied to date.

Nov 1, 2022 · Unprecedented urbanization-induced population migration in China severely affects the scale and geographic distribution of anthropogenic pollutant discharge. Understanding how pollutant discharge patterns respond to population migration can help guide future efforts to maintain water sustainability.

Aug 18, 2010 · The most important groups of anthropogenic air pollution sources are defined by industrial processed, residential heating systems, transportation (terrestrial, naval and aerial) and agricultural systems.

Mar 18, 2021 · Anthropogenic pollution can be chemical, physical and biological, with serious consequences for natural ecosystems and for the human being himself. Among other things, it produces a massive extinction of biodiversity and the deterioration of …

Dec 23, 2021 · Anthropogenic dust over urban areas not only directly contributes to pollutants but also elevates non-dust air pollution. Dust is a suspension of tiny mineral particles in the atmosphere, accounting for ∼70% of aerosol loading in the atmosphere.
