A Comparative study was carried out in different shrimp processing industries at Rupsha Upazila under Khulna district from January 2010 to December 2010. In the experiment, some water quality parameters were determined sketch nutrient dynamics of experimental area. The contents analyzed for measuring temperature, pH, EC, salinity, sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), soluble percentage (SSP), hardnes...

Abstract Saltwater intrusion in estuaries has become a serious environmental problem, such as the Pearl River estuary (PRE). In this study, we used fully validated three-dimensional hydrodynamic model EFDC to numerically investigate saltwater PRE during dry season of 2007-2008. Based on measured salinity, an abnormally strong occurred Humen Channel February 2008. The twice month varying extents...

A Comparative study was carried out in different shrimp processing industries at Rupsha Upazila under Khulna district during 2010. In the experiment, some soils which are collected from nearby fields of and agricultural field that approximately 100 meters away were determined to sketch nutrient dynamics experimental area. The contents water analyzed for measuring pH, EC, Salt percentage major i...

In the irrigated western U.S. disposal of drainage water has become a significant economic and environmental liability. Development of irrigation water management practices that reduce drainage water volumes is essential. One strategy combines restricted drainage outflow (by plugging the drains) with deficit irrigation to maximize shallow groundwater consumption by crops, thus reducing drainage...

Salinity is an ever-increasing problem in agriculture worldwide, especially in South Asia (India, Pakistan) and Australia. Improved genotypes that are well adapted to saline conditions are needed to enhance and sustain production in these areas. A screening of 263 accessions of chickpea, including 211 accessions from ICRISAT’s mini-core collection (10% of the core collection and 1% of the entir...

Preservation of water quality, particularly in areas with inadequate water resources is considered as one of the principles of planning in integrated water management. In Kuhdasht, a region at the west of Iran, groundwater and spring water resources are the major contributors of drinking and irrigation water supply. The aim of this study was to determine the suitability and mapping of springs a...

Uptake of poliovirus 1 by the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus, was measured to assess the likelihood of contamination by human enteric viruses. Virus was found in all parts of the crab within 2 h after the crab was placed in contaminated artificial seawater. The highest concentrations of virus were found in the hemolymph and digestive tract, but the meat also contained virus. The concentration o...

Salinisation of freshwater has been identified as a serious environmental issue in Australia and around the world. Protective concentrations (trigger values) for salinity can be used to manage salinity impacts, though require locally relevant salinity tolerance information. 72-h acute salinity tolerance values were determined for 102 macroinvertebrates collected from 11 locations in four biolog...

dust storms are known as hazardous problems in western part of iran. iraq is one of the main sources for dust storm arriving to the western part of iran. the radial basis function network model (rbfn) has been used to assess wind erosion hazards in the source area of dust storms over several western iranian cities. normalized difference salinity index (ndsi) was used to determine the changes in...
