The concentration of particulate matter decreased significantly, and most aerosol components changed synchronously with particulate matter. The results of advanced three-way factor analysis model suggested that six sources were resolved at three sites: coal combustion, vehicle, crustal dust, cement, sulfate, nitrate and secondary organic matter.

This study shows that CA and biochar synergistically immobilize Cd in alkaline soil from extensively polluted southeastern Hubei, China. Soils were amended with maize stover biochar at rates of 0, 0.5 %, 1 %, and 2 % (<em>W</em>/<em>W</em>), with or without CA addition (1 mmol/L), and incubated for 80 days. Results show that biochar significantly reduced bioavailable Cd, with a 2 % application decreasing extractable Cd by 26.84 %. Unexpectedly, CA alone increased Cd mobility by 9.38 %; however, when combined with high-dose biochar, CA and biochar synergistically enhanced Cd immobilization, reducing bioavailable Cd by 27.40 %. Advanced analytical techniques, including BCR sequential extraction, X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, confirmed that the interaction between biochar and CA altered Cd speciation, promoting its stabilization. This study is the first to show that CA and biochar synergistically immobilize Cd in alkaline soils, disproving the idea that LMWOAs hinder biochar's metal remediation. Our findings show that biochar can prevent or even harness LMWOAs' activating effects on Cd, indicating its great potential for sustainable Cd remediation in alkaline soils.

Based on twenty-two antibiotics in sixty-five water samples from thirteen sites in Beijing in wet and dry seasons, the spatial variation and probabilistic distribution of ecological risk associated with antibiotics were analyzed, and source-specific ecological risk was evaluated. Results showed that for the sum of all antibiotics, the mean concentration of all samples was 671.48 ng/L, and the lower limit of the 90 % confidence interval of RQs was more than ten times the threshold for the high-risk level. The main sources were identified as domestic sewage, pharmaceutical wastewater and livestock discharge. It should be noted that higher contributions to antibiotic concentrations from sources do not always result in higher levels of ecological risk. Domestic sewage and livestock discharge contributed roughly equivalent amounts (36.17 % and 37.59 %, respectively) to antibiotic concentrations. However, domestic sewage was the most dominant source for risk (63.30 %), and livestock discharge only contributed 7.37 % to risk.

Soil-biochar carbon sequestration is a promising natural solution for capturing carbon. This study monitored the CO<sub>2</sub> emissions of five biochar incubated Malaysian Tropical soils (MT-Soil).

Thus, the carbon sequestration potential of biochar could not be evaluated solely by the recalcitrance index. This CO<sub>2</sub> emission is linked not only to the total organic carbon (TOC) and total carbon (TC) of the biochar but also associated with mobile matter (MM), water holding capacity (WHC), available phosphorus (AP), exchangeable potassium (AK), and nitrogen content. The multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA) shows that the weights of these factors on CO<sub>2</sub> emissions are as follows: TC > pH > MM > WHC > AP > AK. The results show that in addition to biochar stability, pore structure and available phosphorus release also affect carbon dynamics through indirect effects on microbial activity. This means that to minimize CO<sub>2</sub> emissions during application of biochar, it is necessary to use soil that is rich in phosphorus and biochar that has undeveloped pore structure and high stable carbon.
