受期刊Agriculture（中科院二区，IF3.6）编辑部邀请，课题组韩永和副研究员协同浙江大学环境与资源学院管冬兴副教授及巴西圣保罗州立大学（São Paulo State University）环境研究中心（Environmental Studies Center，CEA）Amauri Antônio Menegário教授于近期担任该期刊客座编辑（Guest editor）并组稿专刊“Risk Assessment and Remediation of Agricultural Soil Pollution”！该专刊已于2024年4月11日上线并开始接受投稿，具体信息如下：

    Both human activities and natural sources contribute to agricultural soil pollution, posing significant risks to productivity, food safety, and human and ecosystem health. Common pollutants include heavy metals, excess nutrients from fertilizers, rare earth elements, and emerging pollutants (e.g., persistent organic pollutants and microplastics). In order to address these challenges, it is crucial to assess the potential risks associated with soil pollution, implementing appropriate remediation practices and prioritizing health as a guiding principle. From a scientific perspective, a critical evaluation of the biochemical processes occurring within the soil–microbe–fauna–crop continuum under various scenarios, such as irrigation, fertilization, abandonment, and remediation, is necessary, utilizing cutting-edge techniques.

    This Special Issue focuses on the latest research, methodologies, and technologies for assessing and mitigating the risks associated with agricultural soil pollution. It explores a wide range of remediation strategies, including bioremediation, phytoremediation, and chemical treatments, aimed at restoring contaminated soils and promoting sustainable agricultural practices. The Issue also addresses the development of risk assessment frameworks, policy implications, and the socio-economic impacts of soil pollution on farming communities. By bringing together research from diverse disciplines, this Issue aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of agricultural soil pollution, contributing to the development of effective management strategies for maintaining soil health and productivity.
