background: environment and its ecosystems are affected by various natural and man-made disasters. the environmental management in disasters tries to protect ecosystems, sustain development, reduce disaster risk, and adapt to or decrease the impact of climate change. this study aimed to investigate the impact of disasters on the environment and methods of reducing these effects. materials and m...

objective: water scarcity is a growing global problem and increasing population pressures, living standards and the growing demand for environmental quality have evoked all the governments to represent better solutions about water resources management. in addition, there are growing political ties for reducing water use in agriculture that follow enough environmental benefits and increase the w...

The game model of sewage charges, based on incremental mode, was developed. Four modes of high/low sewage charge standards were utilized to analyze the relationship between control strategy on sewage discharge and the development of environmental protection industry. Results showed that the selection of control strategy was heavily dependent on the level of sewage charges. An empirical study wa...

GOAL, SCOPE AND BACKGROUND Aquaculture activities are well known to be the major contributor to the increasing level of organic waste and toxic compound in the aquaculture industry. Along with the development of intensive aquaculture in China, concerns are evoked about the possible effects of ever-increasing aquaculture waste both on productivity inside the aquaculture system and on the ambient...

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have been documented along the coasts of India and the ill effects felt by society at large. Most of these reports are from the Arabian Sea, west coast of India, whereas its counterpart, the Bay of Bengal (BOB), has remained unexplored in this context. The unique characteristic features of the BOB, such as large amount of riverine fresh water discharges, monsoonal cl...

Ballast water treatment technologies must meet stringent performance standards at the point of discharge. Currently, no matter the technology used, a filtration step appears crucial to remove large organisms present in the intake water, to ensure a minimum but still sufficient residual biocide or oxidant concentration, and to decrease the sediment load. Organisms potentially able to survive the...
