Systems that are made of several low-cost gas sensors with automatic gas sampling may have the potential to serve as reliable fast methane analyzers. However, there is a lack of reports about such types of systems evaluated under field conditions. Here, we developed a continuous methane monitoring system with automated gas sampling unit using low-c...

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)–based Earthquake (EQ) anomalies in the ionosphere and troposphere provide explicit evidences to study the coupling between seismic events, atmosphere, and ionosphere in epicentral breeding regions consequent to the EQ day in the preparation period. EQs are still not predicted, but the space-based EQ anomali...

Airborne fungi are among common contaminants in indoor and outdoor environments, leading to poor indoor air quality (IAQ), and to some extent, implicate health risks to humans worldwide. In Malaysia, fungal contamination in institutional buildings is rarely documented although these places are frequently visited by many. This study was conducted to...

Political instability and economic crises may trigger informal, unsustainable and often illegal land use, leading to land degradation. One of the most recent and striking examples of such a phenomenon within Europe is demonstrated by the Polissia region in Northern Ukraine, famous for its amber deposits. Amid severe political disturbances and subse...

Water use in coal power generation is one of the key points to highlight for the countries like India because country electricity demand increases rapidly which led to increase in water demand. The coal power sector in India will remain to be the dominant source of electricity generation until 2040 and will require a regular water supply, which is ...

Mercury in the Arctic originates from emissions and releases at lower latitudes and, to a lesser extent, from local and regional sources. The relationship between mercury (Hg) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediment can be applied as an indicator of the mercury source. This research examines the Hg contamination gradient from a land...

Despite the general lack of studies that use reptiles as bioindicators, the value of freshwater turtles and crocodilians in ecotoxicology has been proven, due to their importance as sentinel species. The aim of this study was to compile information on the use of freshwater turtles and crocodilians as environmental biomonitors of inorganic element c...

Agricultural drainage tiles are primary contributors to NO3-N export from Iowa croplands. Saturated buffers are a relatively new conservation practice that diverts tile water into a distribution tile installed in a riparian buffer parallel to a stream with the intent of enhancing NO3-N processing within the buffer. In this study, tile NO3-N concent...

In the present work, leaf extract of Boswellia sacra was used as reductant for synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The variables such as volume of Boswellia sacra leaf extract (1%), volume of silver nitrate (1 mM), and temperature were optimized by response surface methodology via Box-Behnken design for the synthesis of AgNPs. Design-Expert ...

The Netravathi estuary is a micro- to mesotidal, tropical, shallow estuary with an abundant density of phytoplankton. The impact of the zooplankton grazing rate and the selected environmental variables on the phytoplankton community structure was studied seasonally from 2017 to 2019. Microplanktons of centric diatoms such as Skeletonema costatum an...
