The behavior of toxic compounds in the environment.
TL;DR: The generation of toxic and hazardous chemicals in the US can be considered as one of the nation's healthier growth industries and the vast quantities of compounds generated provide opportunities for human exposure from a variety of both occupational and environmental sources.

Kinetic evaluation of the effects of bioavailability of organic ligands on biodegradation in the presence of common sesquioxide grain coatings
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the rate of citrate uptake in the presence of cobalt by a mixed bacterial community under experimental conditions designed to explore the impacts ofcitrate concentration, temperature, and chemistry of mineral surfaces.

Biological Control on Acid Generation at the Conduit-Bedrock Boundary in Submerged Caves: Quantification through Geochemical Modeling
TL;DR: In this paper, a combined field, laboratory, and modeling study was conducted to determine the amount of calcite dissolution attributable to the generation of protons by microbially mediated sulfide oxidation.
