background: in the present times, arsenic poisoning contamination in the ground water has caused lots of health‑related problems in the village population residing in middle gangetic plain. in bihar, about 16 districts have been reported to be affected with arsenic poisoning. for the ground water and health assessment, simri village of buxar district was undertaken which is a flood plain region...

iran is among the world’s arid and semi-arid regions and its demand for water has been increased due topopulation growth, urbanization and the development the economic sectors (industrial and agricultural). inmany of these regions, the lack of planning and the unauthorized use of resources have led to excessiveexploitation and a lower level of groundwater. the usable groundwater for the country...

The 1990 Coastal Zone Reauthorization Amendments (CZARA), a portion of the Clean Water Act, federally mandated coastal states to adopt management measures to regulate non-point source (NPS) pollution. Coastal states adopted management plans between 1997 and 2002, and regulated areas bordering coasts but not other areas of the state. Despite financial outlays, no work examines whether the legisl...

Defined as any substance in the air that may harm humans, animals, vegetation, and materials, air pollution poses a great danger to human health. It has turned into a worldwide problem as well as a huge environmental risk. Recent years have witnessed the increase of air pollution in many cities around the world. Similarly, it has become a big problem in Iran. Although ground-level monitoring ca...

In many regions of the world, however, traditional sources and supplies of ground water, rivers and reservoirs, are either inadequate or under threat from ever-increasing demands on water from changes in land use and growing populations. In many countries water supplies frequently come under stress from droughts and incr...

We propose a water pollution source mapping system based on ubiquitous sensor networks that fish robots search the source of water pollution autonomously. To verify the effectiveness of a water pollution source mapping system, we made a model water pool in which a fish robot pursues infrared measurements of reflection to various colors at the bottom of the pool. The model of water pollution con...
