The efficiency of phosphate inactivation in the bottom sediments of small retention reservoirs using a combination of calcium and iron salts, ex situ studies
Abstract In strongly degraded reservoirs, the occurrence of intensive internal supply of phosphate to waters under oxygen-deficient conditions is a problem. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance and long-term effectiveness of a properly composed mixture of calcium and iron salts in reducing the intensity of internal supply from the bottom sediments of strongly degraded water reservoirs in terms of their reclamation needs. Experimental studies of phosphate inactivation under anoxic conditions were carried out on undisturbed sediment cores taken from two small retention reservoirs located in SE Poland. The sediments of the tested reservoirs were significantly different in terms of physical and chemical properties. The salt synergy of CaSO4∙2H2O, FeCl3, and CaCO3 was ideal to inactivate phosphate phosphorus in the bottom sediments of the tested reservoirs. The application of FeCl3 and CaCO3 in specific proportions does not lead to a significant increase or decrease in the pH of the water. The decisive influence on the total internal load of phosphorus is the release under dynamic conditions, i.e. during simulated resuspension of sediments and resedimentation of suspended particles. The weaker effectiveness of the applied salt mixture showed in the case of sandy sediments, poor in organic matter, especially humic substances, and significantly hydrated sediments.

Self-compassion mediates the influence of mindfulness on subsequent self-forgiveness in a Polish sample
Abstract Mindfulness is widely recognized for its effectiveness in addressing life challenges, with self-compassion increasingly explored as a potential mechanism underlying its benefits. This study examines whether self-compassion mediates the relationship between mindfulness and self-forgiveness. A three-wave longitudinal study of 164 Polish participants (aged 18–65) assessed mindfulness, self-compassion, and self-forgiveness using validated measures. Structural equation modeling tested the mediation model and alternative pathways, ensuring robust model fit through measurement invariance. Mindfulness predicted self-compassion (β = 0.43, p ≤ 0.001), which in turn predicted self-forgiveness (β = 0.18, p = 0.019), with a significant indirect effect (β = 0.08, p ≤ 0.001). The direct effect of mindfulness on self-forgiveness was not significant (β = − 0.04, p = 0.182). The mediation model demonstrated strong fit (χ²(15) = 23.3, p = 0.078; CFI = 0.977; TLI = 0.971; RMSEA = 0.045; SRMR = 0.038). This study demonstrates that self-compassion mediates the relationship between mindfulness and self-forgiveness, helping to reduce self-criticism and build emotional resilience. The findings support incorporating mindfulness and self-compassion training into interventions for self-forgiveness. Although the sample limits generalizability, the results offer a basis for future research in clinical and diverse cultural settings.
