Remediation of Heavy Metal-Contaminated Soils in Alpine and Arid Mining Regions: Synthesis and Performance of a Multifunctional Amendment

Heavy metal (HM) contamination, freeze–thaw (F-T) cycling, and dry, nutrient-poor conditions jointly degrade the soils of lead–zinc mining areas on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) and severely inhibit plant growth. To address these problems, a multifunctional inorganic–organic composite amendment was developed from loc...
