Article Synopsis
- * Urban ecologists often rely on inconsistent local government data, especially problematic for underserved areas, but community-driven databases like OpenStreetMap (OSM) offer a new avenue for creating tailored ecological maps.
- * The presented framework in R successfully extracts and integrates urban features from OSM into global land cover maps, achieving high accuracy while enabling better analysis of urban wildlife occupancy, demonstrated through a case study in Chicago.
Diclofenac (DCF), a widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, has been detected in effluents of conventional wastewater treatment plants worldwide. The presence of this compound in various water resources even at very low concentrations poses a big threat both to human health and aquatic ecosystems. In this study, the removal of diclofenac from aqueous solution using Fe-Mn binary oxide (FMBO) adsorbents was investigated.
