A comparative study for the atmospheric dispersion characteristics of two proposed sites for nuclear power plant in Tunisia
Abstract: Countries around the world are considering the adoption of nuclear power due to its majoreconomic advantage with a low greenhouse gases emission, which is vital for climate changemitigation. So, Tunisia is considering adding nuclear energy to its energy sources in order toaddress its energy crisis. In Tunisia, two sites are preselected for Nuclear Power Plant (NPP)implantation: Marsa-Dhouiba site in the far north of the country (N3716, E0929) and Skhira sitein …

Assessment of Surface Water Quality of Wadhwana Irrigation Reservoir, Gujarat, India
Abstract: AAssessment of seasonal variation in surface water quality is important for evaluating thelimnological changes in a reservoir. The present study was carried out in Wadhwanairrigation reservoir for understanding changes in different physico-chemical parameters ofwater quality from July 2016 to May 2017. The values of selected physico- chemicalparameters were observed to vary considerably as per the seasons for pH (7.02-8.85),Temperature (12.80 ºC -33.00ºC),Electrical Conductivity (0.29 mS-14.15 mS), DissolvedOxygen (4.30 mg/l-8.71 mg/l),Turbidity …

Population biology of the Sleeper fish Eleotris vittata from New Calabar River , Port Harcourt, Nigeria
Abstract: The population of Eleotris vittata was studied in the New Calabar River over a period of twelve months with the aim of providing a baseline data for the management of the stock; this was due to unavailability of information on the status of the stock. Analysis for growth using the Von Bertalanffy function revealed that length infinity was 26.34cm, parameter of curvature was 1.18cm/year, and the growth performance index was …

Smart Plastic Waste Recycler
Abstract: Reusing plastic is one of the numerous powerful methods for lessening the carbon impression of the planet. Yet, the vast majority of the plastic waste in Mumbai winds up in the dumping yards and consumed alongside the other junk, rather than getting reused. 3.5 huge amounts of plastic is in this manner transmitted in the city's air as dangerous gases. Plastic waste is an overall issue-cause air pollution, water defilement …
