A community guide to estimating radiation doses from residual radioactive contamination.

Throughout Sweet Land of Mine, the destructive role of the MoEF is reprised. This ministry has aided and abetted the overturning of every single piece of legislation designed to protect ecological systems and the communities of Goa. It has done so consistently from the mid-1980s when the Portuguese mining

Experiments are carried out to determine simultaneous one-dimensional spatial concentration distribution of spilled petroleum in three soils (sandy, loamy and topsoil) in the horizontal and vertical directions. It is shown that the horizontal spread is very slow and the volume of petroleum spilled has minimal effects on the extent of spread in the horizontal direction.

The industrial development and growing population in India is in demand of more energy. Coal based thermal power generation is a major source of energy and is expanding at a very high rate leading to over exploitation of coal reserves, which is causing adverse impacts on the environment.

The ability for heavy metals removal by C. odorata and V. zizanioides grown on contaminated soil and synthetic contaminated soil in experimental pots was investigated. Both contaminated and uncontaminated soils, for preparing the synthetic contaminated soil in this study, were obtained from Mae Sot district, Tak province.

The objective of the present study is to assess the migrating behaviour of nickel and chromium through the soil collected around an ash-pond site through laboratory studies and an undertaking of contaminant (Nickel and Chromium)- soil interaction phenomena for unraveling the transport mechanism of nickel and chromium through soil and ground water with an attempt to validate 2 D mathematical modeli

Given the intensity of agriculture and the position of environmental degradation in the country it is necessary to strike balance between fertilizer use and developmental goals for the achievement of economic and environment sustainability. The development could be possible only through judicious management of natural resources without losing much on the pace of the present development.
