Last September, I had the opportunity to attend EUROSOIL 2025 together with the Environmental Soil Science, Chemistry and Agricultural Technology Team of the Technical University of Cartagena (UPCT). This congress is one of the most relevant international events in the field of soil science, bringing together researchers, practitioners and policy makers to discuss advances in soil functioning, management and restoration.
Our latest research “Enhancing microbial biodiversity and vegetation growth in polluted soils by constructed Technosols” has been available in Pedosphere since May 2025 (in press).
Our latest research “Phytotoxicity reduction in polluted soils based on the use of Technosols and L. sativa as bioindicator” is now available in Plants.
Our latest research “An integrated approach to remediate saline soils and mining waste using Technosols and pasture development” is now available in Soil Systems.
Happy to announce that the third article of my PhD thesis “Technosols Derived from Mining, Urban, and Agro-Industrial Waste for the Remediation of Metal(loid)-Polluted Soils: A Microcosm Assay” has been published in Toxics.
Amazing week at #RENS23! Last week I went to Pamplona (Spain) to present some research at the XXXIII Reunión Nacional de Suelos de la Sociedad Española de la Ciencia del Suelo of 2023 and to explore local soils.
“A green solution for the rehabilitation of lands: the case of Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet grown in Technosols” in Plants and “Remediation potential of mining, agro-industrial, and urban wastes against acid mine drainage” in Scientific Reports.
Fruitful week at #EGU23! Last week I went to Vienna (Austria) to conduct our session “Challenges and solutions for assessment, prevention and mitigation of contamination of urban soils and mines as ecotoxicological and human health risks” and present some research at the European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly of 2023.
Our latest research “Ecotoxicological Assessment of Polluted Soils One Year after the Application of Different Soil Remediation Techniques” is now available in Toxics.
Our latest research “Ecotoxicological risk assessment in soils contaminated by Pb and As 20 years after a mining spill” carried out in the Guadiamar Green Corridor (Seville, Spain) is now available in the Journal of Contaminant Hydrology.
