    Influence of Increasing Soil Copper Concentration on the Susceptibility of Phosphomonoesterase and Urease to Heat Disturbance

    Long-term exposure to elevated copper (Cu) concentrations may affect the ability of soil microbes to withstand additional transient disturbances, such as heat. Bulk surface soil samples collected from three so...

    Horticultural Use of Copper-Based Fungicides Has Not Increased Copper Concentrations in Sediments in the Mid- and Upper Yarra Valley

    The use of Cu-based fungicide can pose a risk to nearby surface water bodies due to the run-off of accumulated Cu from agricultural soils. In 2008, we conducted a reconnaissance survey of the presence and conc...
