Biodiversity prospecting for phytoremediation programs intended for utilizing polluted lands and obtaining bioeconomy
Land degradation and soil contamination have become global problem due to irresponsible anthropogenic activities and the overutilization of natural resources by humans. Land degradation and contamination due to toxic heavy metals have adversely impacted not only crop productivity but also the overall environmental health of our planet. Mitigation and management of polluted land are urgently required to achieve the goal of sustainable development …
Cyanobacteria as a potential bioasset for restoring degraded land
Degradation and pollution of land resources is a severe issue worldwide. Rapid urbanization and increased food demand have necessitated the restoration of degraded and highly contaminated land resources in a sustainable manner. The role of soil microorganism in maintaining nutrient balance, texture, fertility, and soil health is widely acknowledged. Cyanobacteria, one of the major components of soil microbiota, have been explored for their role a…
Comprehensive review of nickel biogeochemistry, bioavailability, and health risks in the environment
Elevated nickel (Ni) content in soils and water cause a potential threat to food safety and human health. Owing to its numerous uses from common domestic items to industrial usage, it is vital to assess its bioavailability and speciation in the natural environment. In this review, the biogeochemical cycling of Ni in the natural environment and numerous aspects like dissolution, reducing‐oxidizing condition, pH, precipitation, and biological trans…
Diversity and activity of soil biota at a post‐mining site highly contaminated with Zn and Cd are enhanced by metallicolous compared to non‐metallicolous Arabidopsis halleri ecotypes
Hyperaccumulators' ability to take up large quantities of harmful heavy metals from contaminated soils and store them in their foliage makes them promising organisms for bioremediation. Here we demonstrate that some ecotypes of the zinc hyperaccumulator Arabidopsis halleri are more suitable for bioremediation than others, because of their distinct influence on soil biota. In a field experiment, populations originating from metal‐polluted and unpo…
Temporal variability in fine root dynamics in relation to tree girth size in sub‐tropical sal ( Shorea robusta ) forests
In forest ecosystems, the rapid turnover of fine roots (≤2 mm in diameter) is a major pathway of carbon and nutrient flow from plants to the soil. This study was conducted to determine how fine root biomass (FRB), productivity (FRP) and turnover (FRT) are affected by site characteristics, seasonal variation, soil depth and tree girth size in sub‐tropical sal forest ecosystem. Four sites (S1, S2, S3 and S4) were established in the Bhabhar region o…
Biochar‐based land development
Biochar or pyrogenic carbon, obtained from the thermo‐chemical conversion of biomass in an anaerobic or oxygen‐limited environment, has been in use in agriculture perhaps as far back as the Neolithic. Its unique soil‐ameliorating properties render it suitable for environmental remediation as well as sustainable crop production. It improves soil physicochemical properties and plant nutrient availability, reduces toxic chemical load, facilitates bi…
Impact of coal mining on land use dynamics and soil quality: Assessment of land degradation vulnerability through conjunctive use of analytical hierarchy process and geospatial techniques
Coal is the major source of energy in India, where 66% of the thermal power is generated from different grades of coal. The surging energy demand for domestic and industrial sectors has accelerated coal production through intensive coal mining from existing mines and there is exploration for potential areas across the Country. More than 80% of the coal excavated from open cast mining, which is a damaging form of mining that is often associated wi…
Ecological restoration of fly‐ash disposal areas: Challenges and opportunities
Fly‐ash (FA) is a by‐product or residue that is produced during the combustion of coal for energy production in thermal power plants. The huge amount of FA generation is a global problem; and coal power generators still can find no safe and sustainable approach to FA disposal. FA dumps not only create air, water, and soil pollution but also pose a noxious impact on human health by introducing toxins in the food chain through biomagnification. A n…
