The objective of the study was to determine whether long-term metal pollution affects communities of epigeal spiders (Aranea), studied at three taxonomic levels: species, genera, and families. Biodiversity was defined by three indices: the Hierarchical Richness Index (HRI), Margalef index (D(M)) and Pielou evenness index (J). In different ways the indices describe taxa richness and the distribu...
This paper develops an index of pollution based on the epidemiological dose-response function associated with each pollutant, and the welfare losses due to exposure to pollution. The probability of damage is translated into welfare losses, which provides the common metric required for aggregation. Isopollution surfaces may then be used to compare environmental quality over time and space. An Ai...
as opposed to the staining of non-cultivatable organisms of these two genera. Cotton gauze and rayon-polypropylene fiber swabs were equally sensitive for collecting salmonellae from the streams examined. Tetrathionate enrichment incubated at 41.5 C appeared to be superior to selenite-cystine for isolation of salmonellae from surface waters. Twenty-eight serotypes of Salmonella and two serotypes...
High concentrations of heavy metals in street dust are considered to be a serious risk to the human health and the environment. In this study, 30 dust samples were collected from the pavements in the main streets of Abadan to determine the level of pollution of heavy metals in the street dust. Heavy metal concentrations were analyzed by inductively coupled spectroscopy (ICP-OES) method. The lev...
Air pollution is a global environmental issue, and there an urgent need for sustainable remediation techniques. Thus, phytoremediation has become popular approach to air remediation. This paper reviewed 28 eco-friendly indigenous plants based on both the tolerance index (APTI) anticipated performance (API), using level indices evaluate potential of most plant species control. The estimated APTI...
Aquatic environmental deterioration is becoming a serious problem due to rapid urbanization and economic development, particularly in developing countries. As two important components of the aquatic environment, water quality and sediment pollution are widely considered to be concerns; however, they are considered separately in most cases. The relationship between water quality and sediment pol...
development of a green belt with suitable plant species around the source of emission can mitigate the atmospheric contamination. selection of such plant species are required to combat air pollution based on their tolerance level. present study was undertaken to evaluate the tolerance level of higher plants in east of esfahan city, iran, during 2011 in terms of assessing air pollution tolerance...
the concentrations of potentially toxic elements (as, sb, and hg) and some trace elements in 36 topsoil samples and 18 agricultural soil samples were measured at the aq-darreh river watershed, nw iran. based on the results of the chemical analysis and comparing them with different standards, it seems that the soils of the aq-darreh river watershed are polluted with as and sb. this pollution res...
This paper describes an analysis of mortality among census areas in the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. The number of deaths following days with high particulate air pollution were compared with deaths on matched unpolluted days. The possible role of population age structure, relative deprivation (estimated using the NZDep96 index) and local exposure to outdoor air pollution from household f...
Due to the lack of water quality of resourses in country, exact review of available water resources quality, especially in terms of heavy elements (heavy metals) has a particular importance. Due to industrial towns 1 and 2 of Yasuj city and also Yasuj wastewater treatment, surveying environmental harmful effects of heavy metals on this river is very important. To investigate the changes of heav...
