Assessment of natural coagulants to remediate Tunisian textile wastewater by combining physicochemical, analytical, and toxicological data
compared to the traditionally used chemical coagulant. The highest rate of decolorization was achieved after treatment with the cactus-derived coagulant. The analytical study revealed the presence of only ...
An evaluation of species distribution models to estimate tree diversity at genus level in a heterogeneous urban-rural landscape
a higher model quality. Generic tree diversity estimates were better when presences derived from distribution models were simply added up (binary stacking, True Positive Rate of 0.903). The application of ...
An evaluation of species distribution models to estimate tree diversity at genus level in a heterogeneous urban-rural landscape
simply added up (binary stacking, True Positive Rate of 0.903). The application of macro-ecological constraints resulted in an underestimation of generic tree diversity (probability stacking, True Positive ...
Thyroid cancer incidence near nuclear sites in Belgium: An ecological study at small geographical level
living in the vicinity of the four nuclear sites at the smallest Belgian geographical level. Rate ratios were obtained from a Bayesian hierarchical model for areas of varying sizes around the nuclear ...
Childhood leukaemia near nuclear sites in Belgium, 2002–2008
increased leukaemia incidence rates were found in children aged 0-14 years living in the 0-5, 0-10 and the 0-15 km proximity areas. For this site, there was evidence for a gradient in leukaemia incidence with ...
Human biomonitoring of heavy metals in the vicinity of non-ferrous metal plants in Ath, Belgium.
a participation rate of 24 %. Blood lead levels were significantly higher in young children living in the central area (18.2 μg/l ; 95 % CI: 15.9-20.9) compared to the peripheral area (14.8 μg/l ; 95 % CI: ...
Thyroid Cancer Incidence around the Belgian Nuclear Sites, 2000-2014.
thyroid cancer among people living in the vicinity of the nuclear sites in Belgium. Adjusted Rate Ratios were obtained from Poisson regressions for proximity areas of varying sizes. In addition, focused ...
