Geostatistical Assessments for Characteristics of Soils Around Naip Dam

Characterizing soils for hazardous waste site assessments.

This paper provides a review and justification of the minimum data needed to characterize soils for hazardous waste site assessments and to comply with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). Scientists and managers within the regulatory agency and the liable party need to know what are the important soil characteristics needed to make decisions about ...

Environmental Restoration around the Rihand Dam

Environmental restoration is not simply a practical matter. The topic carries with it immense of metaphysical and aesthetic interest. In the same way that the science of ecology and cultural phenomenon of environmental politics are inseparable, restoration of the environment is inextricably tied to and informed by several areas of discourse: ecology, cultural ecology, human ecology, environment...

Geostatistical assessment of Pb in soil around Paris, France.

This paper presents a survey on soil Pb contamination around Paris (France) using the French soil monitoring network. The first aim of this study is to estimate the total amount of anthropogenic Pb inputs in soils and to distinguish Pb due to diffuse pollution from geochemical background Pb. Secondly, this study tries to find the main controlling factors of the spatial distribution of anthropog...

Accuracy Assessment of Geostatistical Methods for Zoning of heavy metals in soils of urban-industrial areas

According to the IPI (integrated pollution index) report, almost 65 percent of all cities and dust of their roads were polluted with heavy metals. These areas threaten the health of human. Identifying, mapping and monitoring the pollution are the first step in contamination management. Hence, in recent decades many methods are presented to identify and mapping based on computer software that am...
