existence of heavy minerals in waters in some regions causes serious environmental pollution and affects the soil and water resources quality. soil and waters sensitive to pollutants were investigated in this research, based on the degree of sensitivity of their parameters. the samples obtained from industrial and agricultural areas for identifying water tables at higher risk and display region...

Cell-based biosensors (CBBs) are becoming important tools for biosecurity applications and rapid diagnostics in food microbiology for their unique capability of detecting hazardous materials. Pollutants, such as heavy metals and chemicals, are now considered as a global threat and are associated with detrimental health outcomes. Fast and accurate detection of pollutants is essential to reduce t...

OBJECTIVE Though many contaminants are released into the atmosphere, in the US only six air pollutants-ozone, particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and lead-are closely monitored and carefully assessed for health significance. Other pollutants, even if highly toxic, are neither widely monitored nor routinely assessed at the national level. The goal of this study...

Variance-based sensitivity analysis has been performed for a study of input parameters contribution into output variability of a largescale air pollution model the Unified Danish Eulerian Model. The problem of computing of numerical indicators of sensitivity Sobol’ global sensitivity indices leads to multidimensional integration. Plain and Adaptive Monte Carlo techniques for numerical integrati...

Air is one of our most important natural resources; however, it is also in the front line for receiving environmental pollution. Air quality decreased markedly following the industrial revolution, but it was not until the great London Smog in 1952 that air quality made it onto the political agenda. The introduction of the Clean Air Act in 1956 led to dramatic decreases in black smoke and SO2 co...
