PAHs polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
For this, we simultaneously measured polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) using silicone bands worn by 30 pet cats (collar) and their owner (wristband).

ARGs antibiotic resistance genes
Furthermore, gentamicin and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs)/mobile genetic elements (MEGs) introduced by BR decreased greatly after cultivation, implying a low risk of antimicrobial resistance.

WHC water holding capacity
Compared with CK, the combined application of biochar and CMC reduced the soil bulk density (BD) by 1.29-9.41% and the saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) by 29.64-94.98%, and increased the soil saturated water content (SSWC) by 8.81-30.74% and the water holding capacity (WHC) by 13.91-36.87%.

EC electrical conductivity
We examined the effects of gypsum (Gyps), farm manure (Manure) and rice straw (Straw) on enzyme activities, organic matter mineralization and CO2 emissions in two salt-affected soils [Solonchak (saline); pH: 8, electrical conductivity (EC): 6.5, sodium adsorption ratio (SAR): 2.5, and Solonetz (alkaline sodic); pH: 8.9, EC: 1.6, SAR: 17].

SOC soil organic carbon
The Mo fractions and FESEM-EDS patterns confirmed that the BAc of Mo in GP was negatively correlated with soil organic carbon (SOC) content, possibly owing to an increase in Mo retention by SOC.

NDVI Normalized Difference Vegetation Index
The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), and ferrous iron (Fe2+) index (FI) were used to determine the changes in oil contamination and vegetation cover from 1992 to 2002, and 2013-2020.

MGEs mobile genetic elements
Acinetobacter baumannii), ARGs, and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) revealed the increased risk of pathogenicity as well as antibiotic resistance in potential pathogens.
