Abstract:Different types of subsidence lakes formed by underground coal mining are severely polluted by mine-production wastewater, domestic sewage, and agricultural irrigation water. Microbial communities perform a crucial role in biogeochemical cycling processes and responses to natural and anthropogenic disturbances in lake waters. Therefore, it is important to investigate the characteristics of microbial community diversity in subsidence lakes for the utilization of water resources in mining areas. In this study, w… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
