چکیده مقاله:

Surface ozone (Surface O3)is a secondary pollutant and there are only limited studies on ozone in South India. Studies have revealed a strong correlation between higher ozone levels and warmer days. Surface O3 along with its precursors like NO2, CO and CH4 are being measured at Kanyakumari (8.0780° N, 77.5410° E), TamilNadu, India and in this paper we present the summer time variation of ozone from 2010to 2014 . Surface O3 showed a clear diurnal variation, but an irregularity was observed during the night time for all the measuring days of Summer 2014.There was a formation of a well pronounced secondary peak in Surface O3 during 0230 hrs accompanied by relatively strong wind patterns. Since the normal diurnal variation cannot explain this phenomenon,this uncertain behavior is probably attributed tolow NOX titrations and the downward mixing of ozone in the ground layer.The daily mean of Surface O3showed an increasing trend in the study area during the summer monthsand a negative correlation was observed with its precursors. The correlation of Surface O3 with temperature and wind speed for the entire summer season was found as r= +0.68, p= 4.314E-05 and r= +0.63, p

Daytime Ozone Variation in Surface Air in a Subtropical Mangrove Estuary at Manakudy, South India

Surface ozone (SOZ) can be very harmful if it exceeds the threshold limit. It can accumulate over sea and can return back to the land along with the breeze. Rural and vegetation rich areas often record elevated levels of surface ozone because of the variations in Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) levels, wind velocity and direction. Similarly methane is also an important greenhouse gas and plays ...

Genetic variation of 15 autosomal microsatellite loci in a Tamil population from Tamil Nadu, Southern India.

The genetic profiles for 15 autosomal microsatellite loci were analyzed in a Tamil population from Southern India to study the genetic diversities and relatedness of this population with other national and global populations. Statistical analyses of the data revealed all loci were within Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) expectations with the exception of the locus D5S818 (p=0.011). A significan...

Peak expiratory flow in rural residents of Tamil Nadu, India.

BACKGROUND In a country such as India that covers several latitudes, climatic zones, ethnic groups, and dietary habits lung function within the normal population would be expected to vary. Several studies have looked at normal values of peak expiratory flow (PEF) in different regions of urban India but none has looked at rural South India. A study of PEF has now been carried out in a rural popu...
