- Nitrogen deposition and global warming each have potential to alter soil carbon storage via changing decomposition, but combined effects of N addition and temperature on CO2 production in wetland soils are less studied.
- The wide use of municipal sanitary landfills has drawn attention to the leaching effluent generated, this may be problematic to the site's environment, whether by infiltration or other contaminating modes.
- The increased soil loss in an agricultural watershed raises challengers for river water quality and a reliable automated monitoring for suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) is crucial to evaluate sediment budgets variation in systems.
- The natural radioactivity due to uranium, Thorium and potassium in soil contributes to the radiation dose received by human beings significantly.
- The rational and scientific selection of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) landfill sites is becoming increasingly important, due to the continuous growth of MSW worldwide.
- Pesticides are used to protect crops from diseases and pests but can produce residue pollution.
- Changes in land use and increased intensity of rainfall are factors of greater influence that accelerate the soil erosion process.
