The influence of the noosphere on the natural environment is increasingly growing under modern conditions, which in many cases leads to critically dangerous consequences in terms of environmental pollution. The ecological situation is significantly worsened by phenolic compounds of exogenous origin, whose migration involves one of the primary stages – their physical absorption in soils. We investigated the adsorption peculiarities of phenol and m-cresol in Fluvisols distributed in Western Georgia. It was establi...

Environmental pollution by technogenic chemical elements is a significant problem of modern industrial cities. To determine remediation measures it is necessary to have information on heavy metal pollution of all industrial and public facilities of cities, adjacent territories, and soils in parks and city lawns. Content of chemical elements in soil and their concentrations are in close genetic relationship with the lithosphere (bedrock), atmosphere, biosphere and hydrosphere and show constant exchange of matter an...
