long term monitoring programme on brine shrimp ( artemia sp.) is being carried out by the environment agency, abu dhabi, united arab emirates (ead) with the prime purpose of understanding the population dynamics, ecology and habitat requirements of artemia at al wathba lake, situated within al wathba wetland reserve, which is an artificial wetland near abu dhabi city. the present study, being a...

the study comparatively assessed the impacts of farm activities on the abundance and diversity of soil arthropods and soil physico-chemical parameters of the practical year training programme (pytp) farmlands, university of ibadan, south western nigeria. soil arthropods were collected from september, 2010 to february, 2011 in five sampling sites of pytp farmlands using berlese tullgren extracti...

among the environmental problems in nigeria is the lack of proper management of municipal solid wastes (msw), which is capable of releasing hazardous chemicals via leachate to the surrounding environment. in this study, the potential toxic effects of raw leachate obtained from aba-eku landfill (aerl) on clarias gariepinus; and the microorganisms that may be present in the leachate were investig...

in this research, the physico-chemical water quality parameters and the effect of climate changes onwater quality is evaluated. during the observation period (5 months) physico-chemical parameterssuch as water temperature, turbidity, saturated oxygen, dissolved oxygen, ph, chlorophyll-a, salinity,conductivity, and concentration of total nitrogen (nutrient level) as main pollutant factor have be...

the physico-chemical parameters, nutrient status and heavy metal ions of huluka and alaltu rivers of ambo, ethiopia were studied. temperature, ph, electrical conductivity, co2 content, total dissolved solids, hardness, dissolved oxygen, ca2+, mg2+, cl-, nitrate, phosphate and sulphate have been determined along with selected heavy metals to assess the various water quality profiles along the ri...

Present work focused on the seasonal variations in the physico-chemical parameters of the freshwater temple pondPrayagtirth at Trimbakeshwar in Nashik district during summer, monsoon and winter. A total 15 parameters were analysed and their seasonal variation is discussed. The correlation matrix of the various physico-chemical parameters are computed and analysed.

Bioremediation uses various microorganisms to detoxify or degrade various harmful substances in the nature, particularly soil and water. In the proposed work, five species of micro-organisms were used to analyse their impact on various physico-chemical parameters of water. In the first attempt the actual physico chemical parameters of the collected sample water were noted down (Fresh sample par...
