Trends and patterns of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in forest fire-affected soils and water mediums with implications on human health risk assessment
JN Rao, T Parsai - Science of The Total Environment, 2023 - Elsevier
Forest fires are extreme natural/artificial events releasing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs), which are carcinogenic. Most of the released PAHs are trapped in burnt ash, a part …
