- Title
Soil Pollution Assessment and Sustainable Remediation Strategies.
- Authors
Alvarenga, Paula
- Abstract
When the presence of a chemical in soil affects humans or other living organisms, producing undesired effects, that soil is considered polluted. The Environments Special Issue on "Soil Pollution Assessment and Sustainable Remediation Strategies" attempted to cover all these topics, the main classes of soil pollutants, concentrations and soil-plant-water interactions, bioavailability assessment, risks to human health, negative effects on the environment (e.g., freshwater and groundwater, soil organisms, soil functions, ecosystem services), soil quality evaluation and sustainable soil remediation strategies. Hopefully, it will contribute to strengthen the knowledge on soil pollution, to alert the authorities for the importance of taking sustainable remediation actions, and to encourage young researchers to focus their research on soil pollution and remediation.
