Environmental concerns throughout the world are always featured in Chemical Speciation and Bioavailability. Issue 1 of 2011 contains two articles about the contamination that affected communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria following a crude oil spillage. The inorganic and organic pollutants in soil, sediments and ground water have negative consequences for all ecosystems and subsequently for human health.

Hungary’s toxic spill of red sludge, which has cascaded through dozens of villages contains a mix of metal oxides and is now making its way towards the Danube, Europe's second-longest river. The chemical forms and behaviour of such toxic compounds both in water and soil environments has for the past 22 years been the focus of attention of Chemical Speciation and Bioavailability.

Scientists at Kew’s Jodrell Laboratory have discovered that Paris japonica, a striking rare native plant of Japan, has the largest genome of them all – bigger than the human genome and even larger than the previous record holder - the marbled lungfish. The results are published in the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society.
