Present study aims to unravel the hydro geochemical interaction of sediment and water of Saheb bandh lake, West Bengal, India with an emphasis on heavy metal assessment. Lake water belongs to Ca2+–HCO3− type hydro geochemical faces and water-rock interaction primarily controls the lake water chemistry. Based on different Hydro chemical characteristics it is suggested that silicate weathering is...

r a 200 .027 sent add gmail.c Summary Inverse geochemical modeling (PHREEQC) was used to identify the evolution of groundwater with emphasis on arsenic (As) release under reducing conditions in the shallow (25–30 m) Mississippi River Valley Alluvial aquifer, Arkansas, USA. The modeling was based on flow paths defined by high-precision (±2 cm) water level contour map; X-ray diffraction (XRD), sc...

The Molnieboi Spur is located at the northwestern margin of the Katun Range, the highmountain part of the Altai Mountains. Unique geological and geophysical characteristics of the Molnieboi Spur made it an attractive target for complex botanical studies including botanical, soil, geological, geochemical, geophysical, radiation, and soil gas surveys and analyses. In this paper, we present the fi...

Forests in Europe are currently not endangered by soil erosion. However, this can change with climate or intensified forest management practices. Using a newly established network of plots beech forests across Europe, the aims study were to (i) distinguish properties and erodibility indices relation bedrock, (ii) determine geochemical organic carbon (C org ) influencing erodibility, (iii) asses...

Field trials were carried out in order to examine the role of some geochemical indices (S : Al; Mg : Al) and partition coefficient (Kd) for evaluating response of crops to aluminum toxicity under acid soil conditions. They were established in 2007/2008 at Gluszyna Lesna (52014, N and 16056, E), a 300-hectare agricultural farm near Poznan. Two different crop plants were tested: (i) winter oilsee...

In the Mănăila alpine area, soil layer developed in situ on top of sericite-schists, which belong to Tulghes 3 metamorphic unit. The aim present work was determine degree formation using both mineralogical and geochemical exploration methods. XRD, FTIR SEM-EDS results showed that constituents were dioctahedral 2:1 minerals, quartz, chlorite, Na-feldspar, rutire ilmenite. Mainly illite secondari...

There is an increasing demand amongst resource managers for cost-effective watershed-scale inventories of riparian buffer condition and function. Recent developments in image processing software and decreasing satellite imagery costs enable a new methodology that can help meet this demand. ASTER satellite imagery, which has 15 metre pixel size, is processed with image segmentation software to i...

Serial assessments of neurocognitive functioning in athletes with concussion are commonly used for return to play decisions. This study provides reliable change indices (RCIs) for computerized tests from 40 NCAA Division I collegiate athletes that suffered a sports-related concussion. The normative data that resulted from the RCIs and subsequent analyses of differences between improved and not ...
