Published: December 2023

Durante muitos anos, pessoas com algum tipo de limitação eram consideradas indesejáveis no contexto social, eram afastadas, esquecidas, literalmente privadas do convívio em sociedade, pois se acreditava havia muitos motivos para tal comportamento. As pessoas surdas eram tratadas dentro desse contexto. Entretanto, com o passar o tempo, e o avanço da ciência, estudos comprovaram que a surdez não era doença, sequer motivo para exclusão social e, a partir de então, muitos movimentos foram levantados em defesa dos direitos da comunidade surda. Leis, Decretos, documentos jurídicos foram criados para que a inclusão de pessoas surdas fosse efetivada e todos os seus direitos atendidos nos ambientes públicos de atenção básica. Este estudo tem como objetivo: abordar a importância de um interprete de libras-português, nos ambientes jurídicos, considerando-se a crescente demanda desses cidadãos, nos últimos anos. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de caráter bibliográfico, utilizando os métodos hermenêutico, dialético e de argumentação, fundamentados na literatura explorada, cujas plataformas de buscas exibem publicações cientificas inseridas no campo jurídico, bem como legislações e doutrinas pertinentes ao tema. Conforme a literatura estudada, fica evidente que existe ainda um grande caminho a ser percorrido quanto à efetiva inclusão das pessoas surdas em todos os ambientes sociais, especialmente naqueles onde a própria lei passa despercebida, notadamente nos ambientes jurídicos.

A multi-instrument fuzzy logic boundary-layer top detection algorithm
Authors: Smith Elizabeth N. , Carlin Jacob T.
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Understanding the boundary-layer height and its dynamics is crucial for a wide array of applications spanning various fields. Accurate identification of the boundary-layer top contributes to improved air quality predictions, pollutant transport assessments, and enhanced numerical weather prediction through parameterization and assimilation techniques. Despite its significance, defining and observing the boundary-layer top remains challenging. Existing methods of estimating the boundary-layer height encompass radiosonde-based methods, radar-based retrievals, and more. As emerging boundary-layer observation platforms emerge, it is useful to reevaluate the efficacy of existing boundary-layer top detection methods and explore new ones. This study introduces a fuzzy-logic algorithm that leverages the synergy of multiple remote-sensing boundary-layer profiling instruments. By harnessing the distinct advantages of each sensing platform, the proposed method enables accurate boundary-layer height estimation both during daytime and nocturnal conditions. The algorithm is benchmarked against radiosonde-derived boundary-layer top estimates obtained from balloon launches across diverse locations in Wisconsin, Oklahoma, and Louisiana during summer and fall. The findings reveal notable similarities between the results produced by the proposed fuzzy-logic algorithm and traditional radiosonde-based approaches. However, this study delves into the nuanced differences in their behavior, providing insightful analyses about the underlying causes of the observed discrepancies. The fuzzy-logic boundary-layer top detection algorithm, called BLISS-FL, is released publicly fostering collaboration and advancement within the research community.
High-resolution reconstruction of drought episodes during the Dalton Solar Minimum (1790–1830) in the Spanish Mediterranean Basin

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Drought is a common climate risk in the Mediterranean region, but in connection to climate change, its frequency and severity are predicted to increase during the next century. In order to better manage future scenarios in which global warming will be superimposed to natural climate variability, the nature of droughts before industrial times should be analysed in depth. This approach takes into account a broader time scale to the study of severe droughts, allowing the identification of lower frequency droughts that happened before the instrumental period. The objective of this study is to analyse the occurrence and magnitude of the extreme droughts, with durations of more than a year, in Spain during the Dalton Solar Minimum period (1790–1830). To achieve this objective, the study takes into account the use of instrumental observations and information obtained from historical documentary sources from daily to monthly resolution. The results reveal that drought episodes were more frequent and severe during the Dalton Solar Minimum period than during the second half of the nineteenth century. Furthermore, drought episodes of similar severity were hardly seen throughout the twentieth century. Only in the current context of climate change, for the last two decades, a similar pattern of high drought severity has been identified that resembles the severity found during the Dalton Solar Minimum period (especially between 1812 and 1825). This study highlights the presence of a high variability in drought patterns during the last centuries, justifying more efforts of research on drought episodes at high temporal resolution for long time periods.
A change in the relationship between ENSO and the South Atlantic Subtropical Dipole in the past four decades

Published: December 2023

Abstract. This study investigates the relationship between sea surface temperature (SST) in the subtropical Atlantic Ocean, as represented by the Southern Atlantic Subtropical Dipole (SASD), and SST in the tropical Pacific Ocean, identified by the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Our analysis reveals a significant inverse correlation between the SASD and Niño indices over a century, with multi-decadal variability that contradicts weak simultaneous correlations previously reported in the literature. The study also highlights a strengthening of their inverse correlations in the most recent two decades compared to the preceding two decades, which can be attributed to the shift in ENSO regime from more frequent eastern Pacific El Niño to central Pacific El Niño around the turn of the century. This shift helps set the stage for changes in convective activity in the critical region (20° S–40° S, 180°–140° W) of the central South Pacific Ocean, triggering wavetrains that propagate along different paths and ultimately contributing to different southern Atlantic subtropical high (SASH) and changes in anomalous SST patterns in the subtropical Atlantic Ocean. These findings advance our understanding of the interactions between South Atlantic and Pacific SST variations, which strongly influence rainfall patterns particularly in South America and southern Africa and may improve sub-seasonal to seasonal precipitation predictions in these regions.

Abstract. The addition of carbonate minerals to seawater through an artificial Ocean Alkalinization Enhancement (OAE) process increases the concentrations of hydroxide, bicarbonate, and carbonate ions. This leads to changes in the pH and the buffering capacity of the seawater. Consequently, OAE could have relevant effects on marine organisms and in the speciation and concentration of trace metals that are essential for their physiology. During September and October 2021, a mesocosm experiment was carried out in the coastal waters of Gran Canaria (Spain), consisting of different levels of total alkalinity (TA). Different concentrations of carbonate salts (NaHCO3 and Na2CO3) previously homogenized were added to each mesocosm to achieve an alkalinity gradient between ∆0 to 2400 μmol L-1. The lowest point of the gradient was 2400 µmol kg-1, being the natural alkalinity of the medium, and the highest point was 4800 µmol kg-1. Iron (Fe) speciation was monitored during this experiment to analyse whether total dissolved iron (TdFe), dissolved iron (dFe), soluble iron (sFe), dissolved labile iron (dFe´), iron-binding ligands (LFe) and their conditional stability constants (K'FeL), could change because of OAE and the experimental conditions in each mesocosm. Observed iron concentrations were within the expected range for coastal waters, with no significant increases due to OAE. However, there were variations in Fe size fractionation during the experiment. This could potentially be due to chemical changes caused by OAE, but such effect being masked by the stronger biological interactions. In terms of size fractionation, sFe was below 1 nmol L-1, dFe concentrations were within 0.5-4.0 nmol L-1, and TdFe within 1.5-7.5 nmol L-1. Our results show that over 99 % of Fe was complexed, mainly by L1 and L2 ligands with k´Fe’L ranging between 10.92±0.11 and 12.68±0.32, with LFe ranging from 1.51±0.18 to 12.3±1.8 nmol L-1. Our data on iron size fractionation, concentration, and iron-binding ligands substantiate that the introduction of sodium salts in this mesocosm experiment did not modify iron dynamics. As a consequence, phytoplankton remained unaffected by alterations in this crucial element.
Secondary Ice Production – No Evidence of Efficient Rime-Splintering Mechanism

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Mixed-phase clouds are essential for Earth’s weather and climate system. Ice multiplication via secondary ice production (SIP) is thought to be responsible for the observed strong increase of ice particle number concentration in mixed-phase clouds. In this study, we focus on the rime-splintering also known as the Hallett-Mossop (HM) process, which still lacks physical and quantitative understanding. We report on an experimental study of rime-splintering conducted in a newly developed setup under conditions representing convective mixed-phase clouds in the temperature range of −4 °C to −10 °C. The riming process was observed with high-speed video microscopy and infrared thermography, while potential secondary ice particles (SI) in the super-micron size range were detected by a custom-build ice counter. Contrary to earlier HM experiments, where up to several hundreds of SI particles per mg rime were found at −5 °C, we found no evidence of productive SIP, which fundamentally questions the importance of rime-splintering. Further, we could exclude two potential mechanisms suggested as explanation for rime-splintering: freezing of droplets upon glancing contact with the rimer and fragmentation of spherically freezing droplets on the rimer surface. The break-off of sublimating fragile rime spires was observed to produce very few SI particles, insufficient to explain the large numbers of ice particles reported in earlier studies. In the transition regime between wet and dry growth, in analogy to phenomena of deformation of drizzle droplets upon freezing, we also observed formation of spikes on the rimer surface, which might be a source of SIP.

Abstract. A 30-year (1980–2010) climatology of the major variables and terms of the transformed Eulerian-mean (TEM) momentum and thermodynamic equations is constructed by using four global atmospheric reanalyses, MERRA-2, JRA-55, ERA-Interim, and CFSR. Both the reanalysis ensemble mean (REM) and the differences of each reanalysis from the REM are investigated in the latitude-pressure domain for December-January-February and for June-July-August. For the REM investigation, two residual vertical velocities (the original one and one evaluated from residual meridional velocity) and two mass streamfunctions (from meridional and vertical velocities) are compared, and longwave (LW) and shortwave (SW) radiative heatings are also shown and discussed. For the TEM equations, the residual terms are also calculated and investigated for their potential usefulness, as the residual term for the momentum equation should include the effects of parameterised processes such gravity waves, while that for the thermodynamic equation should indicate the analysis increment. Inter-reanalysis differences are investigated for the mass streamfunction, LW and SW heatings, the two major terms of the TEM momentum equation (the Coriolis term and the Elliassen-Palm flux divergence term), and the two major terms of the TEM thermodynamic equation (the vertical temperature advection term and the total diabatic heating term). The spread among reanalysis TEM momentum balance terms is around 10 % in Northern-Hemisphere winter and up to 50 % in Southern-Hemisphere winter. The largest uncertainties in the thermodynamic equation (about 50 %) are found in the vertical advection, which does not show a structure consistent with the differences in heatings. The results shown in this paper provide basic information on the degree of agreement among recent reanalyses in the stratosphere and in the upper troposphere in the TEM framework.
The correlation between Arctic sea ice, cloud phase and radiation using A-train satellites

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Climate warming has a stronger impact on Arctic climate and sea ice cover (SIC) decline than previously thought. Better understanding and characterizing the relationship between sea ice, clouds and the implications for surface radiation is key to improving our confidence in Arctic climate projections. Here we analyze the relationship between sea ice, cloud phase and surface radiation over the Arctic, defined as north of 60° N, using active- and passive-sensor satellite observations from three different datasets. We find that all datasets agree on the climatology and seasonal variability of total and liquid-bearing (liquid and mixed-phase) cloud covers. Similarly, our results show a robust relationship between decreased SIC and increased liquid-bearing clouds in the lowest levels (below 3 km) for all seasons but summer, while increased SIC and ice clouds are positively correlated in two of the three datasets. A refined spatial correlation analysis indicates that the relationship between SIC and liquid-bearing clouds can change sign over the Bering, Barent and Laptev seas, likely because of intrusions of warm air from low latitudes during winter and spring. Finally, the increase of liquid clouds resulting from decreasing SIC is associated with enhanced radiative cooling at the surface, which should contribute to dampening future Arctic surface warming as SIC continues to decline.
Linkage of tropical glaciation to supercontinents: a thermodynamic closure model
Authors: Ou Hsien-Wang
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Precambrian tropical glaciations pose a significant challenge to our understanding of Earth’s climate. A popular explanation invokes runaway ice-albedo feedback leading to “iceball earth”, an extreme state conflicting however with the sedimentary evidence of an open ocean and active hydrological cycle. We point out flawed physics of the runaway scenario, which overlooks potency of the ocean heat transport in deterring the perennial sea ice. Nor is frozen ocean needed for tropical glaciation as the latter requires only that the tropical land be cooled to below the marking temperature of the glacial margin, which is necessarily above the freezing point to counter the yearly accumulation. Since tropical glaciations generally coincide with Precambrian supercontinents, we posit that it is their blockage of the brighter tropical sun that causes the required cooling. To test this hypothesis, we formulate a minimal two-box model, which is nonetheless thermodynamically closed and yields lowering tropical/polar temperatures with increasing tropical land, whose crossings of the glacial marking temperature would divide non/polar/pan-glacial regimes—the last being characterized by tropical glaciation abutting an open ocean. Given the observed chronology of paleogeography, our theory may provide a unified account of the faint-young-sun paradox, Precambrian tropical glaciations and glacio-epochs through Earth’s history.
Dynamic and Thermodynamic Processes Related to Sea-Ice Surface Melt Advance in the Laptev Sea and East Siberian Sea
Authors: Liang Hongjie , Zhou Wen
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Arctic summer sea ice has shrunk considerably in recent decades. This study investigates sea-ice surface melt onset in springtime in the Laptev Sea and East Siberian Sea, which are key seas along the Northeast Passage. Melt Advance, which is defined as the areal percentage of a sea that has experienced sea-ice surface melting before the end of May, is used instead of region-mean melt onset. Four representative scenarios of Melt Advance in the region are identified. Each scenario is driven by a distinct circulation in the lower troposphere in May, which regulates sea ice dynamics and air mass transport, further influencing surface energy balance and Melt Advance. In general, concurrent with faster Melt Advance are warm and wet atmosphere, reduced sea ice cover, and surface energy gains in spring. Melt Advance, as well as sea ice cover in May, is significantly correlated with summer sea ice over. This study implicates the interannual flexibility of spring circulation in the lower troposphere and the significance of seasonal evolution in the Arctic.

En julio de 1936 se inicia la Guerra Civil en España y ambos bandos tienen como una gran problema poner en marcha unos sistemas de información que funcionen adecuadamente. En el caso de los sublevados, además de unos incipientes servicios de información militar, contaron con el apoyo de organizaciones privadas, que con diferente éxito, pusieron en marcha oficinas encaminadas a proporcionar toda la información y toda la ayuda posible. Este artículo se adentra en la intrahistoria del que fue el servicio de información privado más importante con que contaron los insurrectos: el Servicio de Información de la Frontera Nordeste de España (SIFNE), que nació en la frontera con Francia y con el apoyo de aristócratas, diplomáticos y otras personalidades, muchas de ellas del ámbito catalán, lo que en algún momento constituyó un hándicap.

Abstract – Pregnant women with heart disease cannot be denied, even though heart disease is a disease that is considered serious and can pose a risk of death. Treatment of pregnant women with heart disease must be carried out carefully to minimize the occurrence of dangerous risks for both the mother and the fetus. Therefore researchers want to find out more about the treatment of heart disease in pregnant women. The purpose of this study is to find out the appropriate handling procedures for pregnant women with heart disease. The research method used is qualitative with library research so that the data collected is in the form of a variety of information that is spread either through journals, research or books according to the research objective. The data found were then analyzed to find out the results of the research. The results of the study show that if a patient is known to have heart disease before pregnancy, he or she usually has to consult first with the cardiologist who handles it. However, if you don't have a history of heart disease before, you will continue to be monitored by a multidisciplinary doctor to reduce the risk of harm to both the pregnant woman and the fetus, bearing in mind that during pregnancy the heart works harder than when you are not pregnant.

Published: December 2023

Introduction: Introduction: Osteochondroma are benign bone tumours that often affect the metaphysical region of long bones; the scapula is rarely affected. Owing to its bulk effect, scapular osteochondroma may frequently present with symptoms. These tumours typically damage the skeleton's developing ends and stop becoming larger once the skeleton reaches maturity.Suspicion of a cancer should be raised by any increase in size. Case Report: A female patient, age 25, complained of a hard lump on her shoulder posteriorly on further imaging it was confirmed as an osteochondroma of scapula. Discussion: Osteochondromas must exhibit continuity with the underlying parent bone cortex and medullary canal. They are made up of cortical and medullary bone with an overlaying hyaline cartilage cap. They have a very minimal potential for malignancy and are often asymptomatic. Conclusion: The cases of osteochondromas in the scapula are relatively rare, it is crucial to remain vigilant and consider the possibility of malignancy if there are concerning changes in symptoms or size.
Understanding Lipoid Proteinosis: A Brief Overview
Authors: Achar Arun , T Davis Chinjitha
Published: December 2023

Lipoid proteinosis is a rare autosomal recessive deposition disorder resulting from a loss-of-function mutation of ECM1 on chromosome 1q21. It is characterized by the deposition of hyaline-like material within multiple organs, including the skin, oral mucosa, larynx, and brain. Clinically, the first sign is often a weak cry or hoarseness of voice due to the infiltration of the laryngeal mucosa; hoarseness remains throughout life. Cutaneous lesions occur in two stages, which may be overlapping; the first stage consists of vesicles and hemorrhagic crust on the skin of the face and extremities, which resolves with pock-like scarring. In the second stage, the skin becomes diffusely thickened and waxy yellow. The classical clinical feature is beaded papules linearly arranged over the eyelid margin, known as Moniliform blepharosis. Involvement of the tongue, oropharynx, recurrent parotitis, dental anomalies, and neurological manifestations are other findings. A pathognomonic radiographic finding is bilateral intracranial sickle-shaped calcification in the amygdala. Pink hyaline deposits are found in the dermis in skin biopsy. Lipoid proteinosis is a chronic cutaneous disease with a benign course.

The Role of Traditional and Complementary Medicine Applications in the Protection of Health and Treatment of Disease During the COVID-19 Epidemic
Authors: ÇAK Edanur , ÇELİK Şeymanur
Published: December 2023

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19, a life-threatening disease, as a global public health problem on January 30, 2020, citing increasing cases and mortality rates in China and other international countries. The first case of the epidemic, which spread rapidly around the world, was detected in our country on March 11, 2020. At the beginning of the pandemic, efforts were made to find drugs and vaccines to prevent the spread of the virus and to treat the disease. However, until a coronavirus vaccine was found, all resources had to be used to overcome the pandemic crisis as soon as possible. For this, it was thought that complementary and traditional medicine methods based on scientific evidence may be useful to help patients with treatment practices and to minimize the disease and mortality rates until drugs and vaccines are developed.
In this review, the use of complementary and traditional medicine methods used during the COVID-19 outbreak will be discussed in line with the literature.

Published: December 2023

Deterioration of water quality, habitat loss, and degradation of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, are serious global environmental concerns. Over the years, wetland ecosystems have undergone significant changes because of human activities particularly urbanization, agriculture, and industrial expansion. The principal objective of this study was to monitor the in and around changes over Damdama wetland using remote sensing and geographic information systems. The Land use and land cover changes in Damdama wetland were analyzed for the period of 2010-2020 for two seasons i.e., pre-monsoon and post-monsoon using ERDAS Imagine version 2014. The classification was based on six different classes i.e., agriculture, barren land, built-up, fallow land, vegetation and water body using maximum-likelihood supervised classification. The resulted Land use and land cover changes map showed an increase of 9.41%, 14.83%, 3.95% and 0.15% in agriculture, barren land, built-up and water body respectively from 2010 to 2020 in pre-monsoon season whereas the fallow land and vegetation decreased by 15.15% and 13.20%. In post-monsoon season barren land, built-up and fallow land increased by 9.6%, 4.13%, and 1.38% respectively whereas agriculture, vegetation and waterbody decreased by 6.5%, 8.42% and 0.19%, respectively. Overall accuracy was found to be 90%, 92% for pre-monsoon and post-monsoon season respectively in the year 2010, while 94% for both the seasons in the year 2020. The results indicated that three different analytical techniques applied to assess the changes showed similar trend. Overall, such transformation may pose a serious threat to wetland ecosystem in future.

The importance of the removal of heavy metals from industrial wastewater has received immense attention due to the increase of industrialization and heavy metals potential to harm human health. Different conventional methods are used for removing heavy metal contamination, but these methods have several disadvantages. Adsorption process is a simple, economical, and effective method to remove toxic heavy metals from industrial wastewater, but conventional adsorbents are neither readily available nearby nor economic therefore agro-based adsorbents are developed with chemical and thermal treatment. Developed adsorbents from the wheat husk and pigeon pea husk are used in filter units as filter media in combination with sand and aggregate. Activated wheat husk and pigeon pea husk adsorbents significantly removed Cu with 75.42% and 77% efficiency respectively and Ni with 72.50% and 74.17% respectively from industrial wastewater. This paper also studied the removal efficiency by varying pH and turbidity in synthetic solutions. The extent of removal of heavy metals by developed agro-based adsorbents is also correlated by proximate analysis, fixed carbon content 30 to 32%, bulk density 0.42 to 0.61 g/cc, iodine number 75.34 to 852.31, and chemical composition of adsorbents containing SiO2 . Characterization of prepared adsorbents also supported that developed adsorbents have great potential to carry the adsorption process to remove heavy metals from water and wastewater.

Kadapa is a town in the Rayalaseema area of southern side of state Andhra Pradesh, India, commonly known as the key-part of Rayalaseema. It serves as the important business centre in YSR district. The city had a population of 344,078 according to the 2011 Indian census. It’s approximately 8.0 kilometres (5.0 miles) south of the Penna River. Due to unpredictable and uncertain rains, the Kadapa is a drought prone area; in fact, more than 75% of the mandal is a drought area. As a result, the government declared droughtprone areas not just in mandals, but also in urban areas with more than ten panchayats facing drinking water shortages. As a result of the aforementioned circumstances, the government of Andhra Pradesh created the Galeru Nagari Sujala Sravanthi Project [GNSS] project for water supply in drought prone area.

Extension Professionals were the grass root level workers who worked directly with the farmers implementing the development activities. Competency and satisfaction of extension Professionals on their job makes all the difference in smooth functioning of the development initiatives. However, there are constraints experienced by extension professionals in using technology dissemination systems of State Department of Agriculture (SDA) which needs to be studied for effective implementation of the programmes and schemes of State Department of Agriculture. Hence, A survey was conducted among Andhra Pradesh extension professionals, with the sample size of 100 respondents who were actively involved in the fields of State Department of Agriculture through simple random sampling. The constraints were ranked based on the mean scores and also categorized the constraints based on their relative importance. Results showed that the major constraint faced by Andhra Pradesh extension professionals was technical and infrastructure problems associated with the SDA was the most important and first ranked constraint among fourteen constraints. Lack of training to employees on technology dissemination methods, accessibility to the ICT tools, uncontrollable changes in technology delivery methods, availability of required inputs to conduct demonstrations and lack of awareness on new approaches of technology dissemination were other most important constraints. In order to overcome these constraints so as to enhance the capability of extension professionals in utilizing technology dissemination systems of SDA, extension professionals expressed that, the vacant posts in the Department should be filled regularly to reduce the overburden on existing extension professionals as a most important suggestion with regular and relevant training programmes on latest technology dissemination methods for successful implementation of the extension delivery system.
Evaluation of compatibility of native plant growth promoting rhizobacterial isolates against chemical pesticides
Authors: Pradhan Saswati , Jena Manoj Kumar
Published: December 2023

Conventional agriculture relies heavily on chemical fertilizers, pesticides and weedicides to control plant diseases, pests and weeds to improve production. Consequently, the soil receives the bulk of complex agrochemical compounds many of which are poisonous to the activity of non-target beneficial soil microorganisms. There is a need to check the tolerance of biocontrol agents like Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacterial (PGPR) to various pesticides before their practical application. Taking this into account, the investigation was conducted for the screening of the PGPR isolates against chemical pesticide degradation potentialities in Plant Bacteriological Laboratory, Department of Plant Pathology, Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal during 2021-22. All the native rhizobacterial, Bacillus and Fluorescent pseudomonad isolates tested had good potentiality to tolerate Carbendazim and Glyphosate. Among native Bacillus isolates, BRB89, BRB42, PR 19, PR 20, BRB 52, BRB 56, BRB 74, and SM 9 showed moderate tolerance, whereas among all the native Fluorescent pseudomonads, all except GP2 showed high tolerance against Paraquat. All native Bacillus isolates except PR16 were highly sensitive against Chorpyriphos. However, all the native fluorescent pseudomonads showed tolerance against Chorpyriphos even at 2000 ppm concentration.

Authors: B.T. Shivendra , T.P. Sanjeev
Published: December 2023

Sitting onsite sanitation systems near ground water sources without following any Indian national building organization, guideline is common in the peri urban areas in India. Due to close location of them the contaminants infiltrates from onsite sanitation systems and causes contamination of groundwater sources. Contamination of groundwater sources by pathogenic bacteria and nitrate are two major public health risks due to onsite sanitation systems. Sufficient depths of unsaturated soil and adequate horizontal separation distances between an onsite system and water sources are required to protect public health from aquifer contamination. In the present study the assessment of movement of pollutants in sandy soils around the onsite sanitation systems has been carried out to study the impact of septic tank on nearby borewell groundwater. Soil samples were collected around the septic tank in five directions. In each direction, soil samples were collected at 1 m interval longitudinally up to 2 m from septic tank edge at 0.3 m and 0.5 m depth. The soil samples are analyzed for sulphates, chlorides, phosphates, nitrates. The soil samples for bacterial analysis (E. coli) were collected in both monsoon and non-monsoon seasons upto 10 m from septic tank edge. From analysis of soil samples it can be concluded that concentration of nitrate, chloride, phosphate and sulphates leached from septic tank are not able to effect quality of bore well water located downstream of septic tank. The E. coli movement in the soil is observed upto 5 meters from the edge of the septic tank. The study concludes that the present distance between public borewell and septic tank is sufficient to prevent groundwater contamination.

Solanum tuberosum is an important vegetable crop worldwide. Among various diseases, black scurf disease caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhnh as emerged as a major problem and is known to cause qualitative and quantitative losses in potato.The management of R. solani causing black scurf is complex due to its soilborne nature and high level of survival and poses a challenge for the eco-friendly management of the disease. The existing fungicides control measures are neither economical nor environment friendly; therefore sustainable effective disease management strategy is required. Available information on management of black scurf (R. solani) disease is scanty. The present investigation was carried out in the Agricultural Research farm (Vegetable Science), Guru Kashi University, Talwandi Sabo during rabi seasons, 2021-22 and 2022- 23.The ‘Kufri Pukhraj’ infected potato tubers were planted during 15th November in both respective years under field conditions with three replications at different depth of planting (soil depth: 15, 20 and 25 cm). Results revealed that per cent disease incidence and severity increased with increase in depth of planting during both the years. Black scurf incidence and severity showed a positive correlation with morning soil temperature and soil moisture whereas, a negative correlation with evening soil temperature (STe). The optimization in depth of planting can be a good eco-friendly and economic alternative for the management of black scurf of potato.
