Environmental monitoring is the process of blending ecosystems, mathematics, and computer science for the purpose of environmental impact assessments. In the past few years, wireless sensor networks have been emerging as a next generation of computer networks. Applications of wireless sensor networks for environmental monitoring are being studied extensively using low-cost, high-availability, a...

Ground-based monitoring of rangeland condition is common in Australian pastoral administration systems. In the Northern Territory, such monitoring is officially seen as a key plank of sustainable pastoral land use. In the NT and elsewhere, these monitoring schemes have sought to increase participation by pastoralists. Involvement of pastoralists in monitoring is theoretically an educative proce...

The paper is concerned with the applications of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) technology for large scale and long duration environmental monitoring. We illustrate here the technological difficulties and challenges that have been encountered in meeting end-users requirements for information gathering. The main aim is to provide greater reliability and productivity to influence the design choices...

Although Integrated Environmental Health Monitoring (IEHM) is considered an essential tool to better understand complex environmental health issues, there is no consensus on how to develop such a programme. We reviewed four existing frameworks and eight monitoring programmes in the area of environmental health. We identified the DPSEEA (Driving Force-Pressure-State-Exposure-Effect-Action) frame...
