In Baltimore, census tracts made up of White, working-class people are more likely to contain a Toxics Release Inventory facility than primarily Black census tracts. Differences in race characteristics decrease with larger units of analysis
of toxic-release to working-class White neighborhoods.

The AA. consider both the evidence supporting the conclusion that race is the central determining factor with toxic exposure and they explore the political implications of such for community organizing and empowerment. An overview of the genesis
A method for constructing toxic waste site histories from old airphotos of coastal regions in Remote sensing : Applications in Marine and Coastal Research.
Soils from agriculturally tilled fields (Dorobantu farm, Calarasi, southern Romania), either burned or unburned for clearance, were examined for their toxicity and sorption capacity (fields being burned for cleansing experience an increase
operating parameters : the initial concentration of naphthalene, initial concentration of soil, pH, soil structure and composition and soil characterization. The toxic effectiveness of the various soils was also investigated.
This research was part of aseries of similar studies carried out in the Geographical Research Institute of the Hungarian academy of Sciences aiming at scientific foundation of site selection for large scale deposition of toxic wastes with special
The benefit of environmental improvement in the southeastern United States : evidence from a simultaneous model of cancer mortality, toxic releases and house values
Subground deposition is gaining in significance as a harmless and efficient method of disposal of unusable wastes, especially toxic refuse and detrimental matter. First results of trial and routine operation of such a deposition object for liquid
unusable refuse in an exhausted hydrocarbon deposit show the efficiency and safety of this method. Up to the end of 1978 in the first central object in the district of Cottbus 10000 cubic meters of oil-field water and 1600 cubic meters of toxic refuse were
The A. exposes the geographic myth behind a recent Hollywood film. Unrelenting resource extraction and toxic pollution have turned the Blackfoot River of Western Montana into an ecological disaster. - (DWG)
This inventory is dealing with all known plants in Belgium and adjoining countries. Tables give medicinal, toxic, nectariferous and polliniferous properties with bibliographic references. - (L. W.).
The papers deals with extent of toxic contamination of soils and waters in the U.S., legislation in this point, and methods for detoxification. A special attention is devoted to the participation of the population affected in the environmental
Known since Antiquity, the toxicity of quail flesh is recorded from southern Europe, North Africa and Soviet Georgia. A plant of the mint family is held responsible. - (DWG)
The balance of soil moisture is concerned in connection with the flow of possibly toxic materials. The opportunities for the geostatical interpretation of geological, pedological and topographic maps are studied. For the handling of data a computer
The present paper is aimed at the defining of the buffering capacities with respect to potentially toxic chemicals. On the basis of a paradigmatic description of soil moisture balance and related fluxes of chemicals a review of adsorption
The aim of this study was to increase cation exchange capacity and base cations and to alleviate Al toxicity of a highly weathered soil (oxisol) using finely ground basalt rocks. The experiment was carried out using a fine clayey, kaolinitic
