The purpose of this article is to assess the quality of soil and water environmental factors in some protected areas in Romania both to establish geochemical threshold values and to highlight anthropogenic pressures where they have been identified. The activities carried out are defined spatially and temporally so that the results obtained include seasonal variations and other influencing factors that have a variability on a temporal and spatial scale. Each protected area introduced in the study was well documente...

The present paper concretises a current assessment of the quality of the environmental components by characterizing the soil and groundwater samples in 4 agricultural areas in Romania, chosen as case studies according to the criteria of their vulnerability to climate change. The important data obtained from laboratory physical and chemical characterization of soil and groundwater samples taken from these areas, have been analyzed in close correlation with current agricultural practices identified and their local s...

Our objectives were to investigate the bacteriological, biological and chemical status for sediment quality in a zone from Danube catchment according to Water Framework Directive. The area chosen for investigation is a large section of the Danube River on the section Bazias-Calarasi and its main tributaries located in the southern part of Romania (Jiu, Olt and Arges rivers) and the aquatic systems type пїЅdeltaпїЅ in the south-east of the Danube. All investigations performed where made in accordance with Directive...

This study reports the assessment of the pollution to urban soil pollution in few major cities of Romania. In the past few years, in all over Romania an increasing trend could be noticed related to the scientific interest for soil contamination due to anthropogenic activities. Nevertheless, a research aiming to assess a quality screening report related to the presence of contaminants in top soils of urban areas due has never been conducted and the public society is deprived of such information in all cities. The a...
