(Scientific Agricultural Society of Finland, 2012-03-12)
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi from two chromium contaminated sites, one with 275 mg kg-1 of Cr (zone A) and the other with 550 mg kg-1 Cr (zone B), were multiplied and tentatively identified. The effect ...
Spatial and temporal dynamics of suspended load at-a-cross-section: The lowermost Ebro River (Catalonia, Spain)
(Elsevier, 2012-07)
Suspended load dynamics were analyzed for the period 2007e2009 in a semi-meandering
cross-section under different hydrological conditions. Samples were collected at four
