However, the complex interactions between microplastics and various metals in water environments remains to be understood. This study aims to investigate the interaction dynamics between lead(II) ions and polyethylene in freshwater environments. Adsorption trials were conducted systematically by adjusting operational parameters such as initial Pb(II) concentration, equilibrium pH value, and residence times. An in-depth characterization study using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis was conducted to explain the adsorption mechanism of polyethylene microplastics (PEM). The data indicated the porous surface of PEM, highlighting the presence of diverse functional groups. According to the Langmuir model, the PEM exhibited maximum Pb(II) uptake of 3.69 mg/g at pH 4.5. The pseudo-first-order model demonstrated superior fitting to Pb(II)-PEM kinetics. Desorption trials were performed to assess the release of Pb(II) from Pb(II)-bounded PEM using various chemical agents. It was observed that 0.01 M HNO₃ desorbed Pb(II) ions optimally, achieving a desorption efficiency exceeding 99.9%. Consequently, desorption trials provided evidence that Pb(II)-bounded PEM may release Pb(II) ions in acidic environments, facilitating the transfer of Pb(II) to the digestive tracts of aquatic organisms.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":35327,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Quality Management","volume":"34 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142641505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shoreline change analysis offers critical insights into coastal dynamics, providing trends in erosion and accretion, enabling effective coastal management and hazard mitigation. In the current study, shoreline change is assessed utilizing the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) model for Subarnarekha and Budhabalanga river estuaries in Baleswar district, Odisha, India. The shoreline was extracted using multitemporal satellite images like Landsat-5 and Landsat-7 for the years 1991, 2000, and 2011. Similarly Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 satellite imagery were used for the year 2022. The satellite data from 1991 to 2022 were processed using Envi, ArcGIS softwares and the shoreline is extracted for each year using band ratioing methods to demarcate shoreline. In the current research, the net accretion and erosion along the coast were analyzed using the GIS (geographic information systems) technique and the DSAS model. The four important statistical parameters of the DSAS model utilized in the study area are end point rate (EPR), net shoreline movement (NSM), linear regression rate (LRR), and least median of squares (LMS). The shoreline change analysis for the coast of Subarnarekha and Budhabalanga river estuary area from 1991 to 2022 reveals that 44% of the coast is under accretion, 7% is under stable coast, and 23% is under erosion. According to the findings, the coastal area of the recent study is both progressive and regressive in nature. For the study area, the average rates of shoreline accretion and erosion are 1.05 m and 0.45 m per year, respectively. The study gives information on erosion and accretion near the Subarnarekha and Budhabalanga river estuaries, which will aid in the development of an adaptive shoreline management strategy and coastal vulnerability assessment.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":35327,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Quality Management","volume":"34 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142641539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data on 12 variables and 24 indicators were collected within the Chadpai range of the Sundarbans. Results revealed both positive and negative relationships between the SES dimensions. Positive correlations were found between the resource system and resource unit, and between governance and both resource system and unit (albeit weaker).
