Coastal wetlands provide a variety of ecological functions that sustain biodiverse habitats, serve as barriers to storm surge, regulate biogeochemical cycles, and yield ecosystem goods and services that benefit society. The magnitude of wetland functional delivery varies with geomorphology and landscape position, hydropattern and hydrodynamics, vegetation structure and composition, soil properties, and microbial community asse...

Anthropogenically induced change in soil redistribution plays an important role in the soil organic carbon ( SOC ) budget. Uncertainty of its impact is large because of the dearth of recent soil redistribution estimates concomitant with changing land use and management practices. An Australian national survey used the artificial radionuclide caesium‐137 ( 137 Cs) to estimate net (1950s–1990) soil redistribution. South‐eastern...

This review paper reports the consensus of a technical workshop hosted by the European network, NanoImpactNet (NIN). The workshop aimed to review the collective experience of working at the bench with manufactured nanomaterials (MNMs), and to recommend modifications to existing experimental methods and OECD protocols. Current procedures for cleaning glassware are appropriate for most MNMs, although interference with electrodes...
