Forthcoming risk of Prosopis juliflora global invasion triggered by climate change: implications for environmental monitoring and risk assessment.

abstract：:The purpose of this paper is to understand the sources of potentially toxic elements (PTE) and provide some suggestions to control PTE pollution. For this purpose, data from 30 monitoring stations for 2009-2018 were used to assess the PTE concentrations of Hg, Cu, Pb, Cd, Zn, and As in the Yangtze River Estuary. The P...
