description: The proliferation of illegal and artisan miners in the Abakaliki district raises a significant threat to environmental, ecological, health and food security; culminating in heavy metal pollution, with effects on local water sources and soils that communities depend on for drinking and agriculture purposes. The study evaluated environmental contamination echelon from eight heavy metals (Zn, Cd, Pb, Cu, Cr, As, Ag and Hg) using 40 soil and stream sediment samples analyzed and appraised with critical quality indicators (geoaccumulation index(Igeo), Pollution-index(€), contamination factor (Cf) and the data visualized using Python, ArcGIS and Surfer software. The metal concentration trend of Zn>Cu>Pb>Cr>Cd>As>Ag>Hg was found. The € of Zinc, Copper, Lead and Arsenic were relatively insignificant whereas Cd, Cr, Ag and Hg are significant, around mining hotspots of Mkpuma-Akpatakpa, Mkpuma-Ekwoku, Ikenyi and Amaeka. The Igeo indicated ≥ 80% of the soil as uncontaminated-to-moderately contaminated by Zn, Cu, Pb and Cr, whereas As and Cd have higher and heavier contamination echelons respectively. The gradation of contaminants in the area was not uniform (very low to ultra-high gradation). About 41.37% of the study area indicated relatively UC, whereas 31.03%, 12.06%, 1.72%, 3.44%, 3.49% and 6.89% were UC-MC, MC, MC-HC, HC, HC-EC and EC, respectively arising from Cd concentrations.

description: Augustine of Hippo, Sermon 61A

5. ... Propter hoc admoneo primitus caritatem uestram, quoniam scio, et omnes scimus et dissimulare non possumus: feriunt enim oculos et nolentium, quae hic cotidie fiunt miracula sanitatum per memoriam beatissimi et gloriosissimi martyris praesentis in hoc loco: sed sine dubio aliqui petunt et non accipiunt.

'5. ... This is why I admonish Your Charity, for I know, and we all know and cannot hide it. Even the eyes of those who do not want it are stricken, because here, through the memorial shrine (memoria) of the most blessed and glorious martyr daily miraculous healings are wrought in this place. Yet other seek them too, and do not receive.'

There follow reflections on why not everybody is healed at the saint's shrine, in which Augustine emphasises that the most important healing is spiritual, not somatic.

'(...) Wherefore, once again and several times, I admonish those who are zealous for the true religion not to mistreat the groups of the Galilaeans nor to harass or abuse them. Nay, we ought to pity rather than hate men who, in matters of the greatest importance, are in such a bad position. Indeed, the greatest of all blessings is reverence for the gods and, for that matter, irreverence is the greatest of all evils. It follows that those who have turned aside from the gods to corpses and relics pay this as their penalty […] we sympathize with the suffering of those afflicted , but rejoice with those released and set free by the gods.'

description: Strategic flood risk management of river catchments involves significant increases in the complexity both of the contents (e.g. the aims and measures) of a given strategy and also its social, spatial, and temporal scales. Conceptually, flood risk management research to date has underestimated the importance of time and temporality. This paper, which is based on ‘historical Institutionalism,’ introduces a temporal lens to focus on strategic flood risk management; it highlights issues of duration and timing as well as tempo and change in tempo with respect to the implementation of measures to reduce flood risk at catchment level. The application of a temporal lens is illustrated through empirical research into strategic flood risk management for the medium-sized Aist river catchment in Austria. The paper uses a longitudinal qualitative research design to analyze the changes in strategic flood risk management in the catchment. The analysis shows that strategy efforts in reaction to an extreme flood event in the catchment in August 2002 can be differentiated into three phases. Phase 1 is characterized by the design of ambitious catchment-wide management; Phase 2 by struggles to implement the strategy due to institutional conditions and protests by citizens; and Phase 3 by redesign of the initial strategic plan to make it less ambitious and by changes to the actor constellation supporting the plan. The present paper offers a process-oriented institutional explanation for this pattern of phases, and it highlights issues of timing and tempo. It concludes with general suggestions for enhancing the temporal dimension in flood risk management.

description: Abstract

Introductıon: Radiophobia is a fear of ionizing radiation.Irrational fear of low-level radiation is a constantly increasing component of public attitudes and the political responses to them.While careless management of any perturbation to the natural environment, particularly ionizing radiation, can produce both acute and long-term hazards, the extensive body of scientific knowledge of the biological effects of ionizing and nonionizing radiation that already exists (although far from complete) has been most often perverted, confused, or ignored in the public and private decision processes. Aim: This survey was conducted for assessing the Awareness About Dna Strand Breaks And Chromosomal Aberrations Among Allied Health Science Students. Materials and method: A cross-section research was conducted with a self-administered questionnaire containing ten questions distributed amongst 100 Allied Health Science students. The questionnaire assessed Awareness About Radiophobia among Allied Health Science Students. The responses were recorded and analysed. Results: 74.1% of the respondents were aware of Radiophobia. 67% were aware of symptoms of Radiophobia. 61.2% of the respondents were known that Radiophobia is treated by psychiatrist. 87.9% of the respondents were aware that Radiophobia is an excessive fear of radiation. 67% were aware about that radiophobia was presented by Dr Albert Soiland of Los Angeles in 1903. Conclusion: There is a moderate awareness amongst Allied Health Science students about Radiophobia. Enhanced awareness initiatives and educational programmes together with increased importance for curriculum improvements that further promote knowledge and awareness of Radiophobia should be initiated for further understanding and benefits.

description: The Nile River is one of the longest rivers in the world, serving as the lifeline of many countries. The river is subjected to significant anthropogenic pressures, and thus, understanding the magnitude of contamination and its possible consequences is needed. This research aimed to evaluate the presence of heavy metals in the surface water of an understudied region within the Nile River. The distribution and level of 18 elements along the Damietta branch were assessed, and their potential sources were estimated. Additionally, pollution indices and health risks were calculated. The results showed that most metals were within the acceptable levels of USEPA and WHO. However, Na, Mg, and Ca were higher than the permissible level of WHO, and K was higher than the permissible levels for irrigation. Furthermore, heavy metal pollution indicators, degree of contamination indices, heavy metal evaluation indices, Nemerow pollution indices, and water quality indices all pointed to very high standards for water quality. Also, the noncarcinogenic health risk index indicated a safe limit for dermal and oral exposure for adults and children. Overall, this study recommends management focus on anthropogenic activities in the Damietta branch of the Nile River.

description: This study addresses the challenge of accurately estimating groundwater-surface water fluxes, essential for sustainable water resource management, by improving traditional temperature time series methods. Existing approaches often struggle with distinguishing natural temperature variations from significant water exchanges, especially across different spatial and temporal scales under varying conditions like recharge and discharge. To overcome these issues, advanced statistical tools were applied to temperature data, and COMSOL Multiphysics was used to simulate interactions by coupling fluid flow and heat transport. Multisite and multivariate calibration techniques refined parameters like hydraulic conductivity and porosity, while models accounted for external factors such as climate variability and land-use changes. The findings reveal that the combined method was effective in estimating groundwater-surface water fluxes under recharge conditions. The COMSOL model achieved an MAE of 0.71, MAP has 0.92, RMSE of 0.80, and RMSLE has 0.30, indicating consistent performance across evaluation metrics. This advancement improves groundwater-surface water model precision, especially in distinguishing natural temperature variations from significant water exchanges. It offers more accurate flux estimation, aiding better water resource management.

description: Heavy metals persist in the sediment and can induce toxicological effects on living organisms. For analysing the risk of heavy metals, geochemical fractionation is beneficial. These geochemical fractions or speciations help to determine the heavy metals availability, mobility, toxicity, enrichment, and various risks. Here, we show how heavy metal contamination of sediment poses risks to both the ecosystem and human beings. We found significant Zn, Co and Cd contamination by analysing the geoaccumulation index. We also observed higher geoaccumulation index values for the pre-monsoon season than the post-monsoon one. Furthermore, pollution load index indicated gradual contamination of heavy metals in the sediments. This study's risk assessment and modified risk assessment codes showed low or no risk, but contamination factors indicated moderate to high risk. Our analysis of the effective range median mean quotient revealed some sampling stations as medium to high-priority sites. Similarly, probable effect level mean quotient designated some sampling stations as medium-low priority sites. We anticipated a moderate to significant mortality effect on the organisms from toxicity unit index values. Potential ecological risk index indicated a very high ecological risk on the Mahananda River. Furthermore, we predicted non-carcinogenic health hazards and carcinogenic health risks in the river's sediment.

description: This paper explores the concept of meaningful participation in river basin management, using the case study of the Hennops River in Gauteng Province, South Africa. Experiences of different stakeholders and communities regarding their involvement in the management of the Hennops River basin are analysed following engagement through interviews, workshops and clean-up initiatives. Several barriers and enablers for meaningful participation, such as lack of awareness, capacity, coordination, trust and incentives, are identified. Some recommendations are proposed for improving stakeholder and community participation, based on the lessons learned from the case study. This includes the formulation of a social fund to support small community-based projects such as clean-up campaigns. Projects should be reflective, keeping the community engaged and active. The paper argues that meaningful participation requires not only formal mechanisms of engagement and decision-making but also informal and practical actions that empower stakeholders and communities to take ownership and responsibility for their water resources and environment. For meaningful participation to take place, more needs to be done to shift communities away from a ‘bystander’ position to a more active role. A new approach to community engagement is therefore necessary to support stakeholder-driven initiatives and the raising of awareness in poorer communities.

description: This study develops and validates a Geomorphological-based Instantaneous Unit Sediment Graph (GIUS) model to estimate the event-based sediment yield of the Talar catchment, a significant sediment source in the southern Caspian Sea. Delivering approximately 11,190 tons of sediment annually, which directly impacts coastal dynamics and port operations, necessitates accurate sediment load estimation to the Caspian Sea. The catchment was divided into three sub-catchments, where the GIUS model was applied. Model calibration and verification utilized paired data of daily rainfall, streamflow, and suspended sediment concentration for 475 events. After separating direct runoff from streamflow, the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number (SCS-CN) model was employed to estimate the excess rainfall, serving as the primary input for the GIUS model. The erosion rate, a critical parameter in the GIUS model, was calibrated as a power function of excess rainfall depth. The results indicate that the sediment delivery ratio for the channel networks ranges from 28% to 44%. The strong correlation (CE = 0.64−0.85, SE = 0.75−1.96, R2 = 0.85–0.92) between observed and simulated sediment yield values underscores the reliability of the developed model. This research presents a repeatable approach for event scale sediment yield modeling, essential for sustainable water resources management and soil erosion control in the region.

description: The decay of rivers coupled with its escalated pollution is a concern worldwide. The present study intends to assess the agony of the riverine people due to the contamination of the Churni River and the transformation of their grievance into environmental activism at individual and community levels for rejuvenating the river and for a secured livelihood. The study observed an enriched concentration of biological oxygen demand, nitrate, and phosphate and a reduced concentration of dissolved oxygen during 2011–2020 due to the release of untreated industrial wastewater, sewage from urban areas, and agricultural runoff into the river. A systematic investigation reveals pollution-induced socio-psychological trauma and community awareness leading to the active involvement of the people in the environmental awareness movement, which was mediated by self-efficacy, self-responsibility, self-identity, and community value. A parallel multiple mediator model was employed, which included 29 parameters for exploring the key-mediated factors for the environmental movement. The model-based results identified that self-responsibility and community-value for upper stretch villages and self-efficacy and community-value for the lower stretch villages are significant mediators of environmental activism. A canonical component analysis predicted socio-demographic factors (e.g. age, dependency ratio female-male ratio, etc.) as intrinsically linked to environmental activism. This study is significant because it reveals how pollution and river degradation affect riverine people. It also clarifies how local grievances turned into environmental activism as a result of the documented socio-psychological trauma and growing community awareness. This study would thus play a pivotal role in understanding the human-nature complex to better planning and river restoration.

description: The work is devoted to the problem of solving large systems of linear algebraic equations with irregular structure matrices. To solve them the variant of the projection method in the Petrov-Galerkin form is proposed. Most of the known projection methods is based on the use of bases of Krylov subspaces. The main difference of the proposed method is the choice of the basis from coefficients of wavelet packet decomposition of the residuals. In general, the wavelet transform can be adaptive due to the entropic criteria for the evaluation of elements of the wavelet tree. This distinguishes the proposed method from the known FOM method, the GMRES algorithm and other projection solvers. Conducted a series of computational experiments comparing the proposed algorithm with the main existing projection methods. The experiments showed that the proposed algorithm is competitive with the major existing projection type methods, and in some cases can exceed them.

description: The present study aims to evaluate the distribution of organochlorine pesticides in the Loktak Lake and its draining rivers over a spatial and seasonal scale. Organochlorine pesticides including α- HCH, β- HCH, γ- HCH, δ- HCH, Aldrin, 4,4-DDE, Endrin, Endosulfan II, 4,4-DDD, Endrin Aldehyde, Endosulfan sulphate and 4,4-DDT were analysed in the water and sediments adopting gas chromatography and mass spectrometric techniques. The concentration of pesticides recorded the highest concentration of 2271 ng/l in the water samples and 5319 ng/g in sediment samples. In water samples, Endosulfan II, Endrin and γ- HCH were present at the higher concentrations, whereas α-BHC was recorded at the lowest at 0.78 ng/l. In sediment samples, 4, 4-DDT recorded the highest concentration, followed by 4,4-DDD and Endosulfan II. Human health risk assessment based on water consumption shows higher risk potential from five pesticides. Pesticides in the region may pose a threat to the wetland comprising vital flora and fauna of the biodiversity hotspot. The bacterial population was more or less related to the pesticide concentration, with a lower population at less contaminated sites.

description: Spatio-temporal assessment of the evolution and morphodynamics of the Brahmaputra River (BR) can contribute significantly in mitigating challenges offered by rapid urbanisation and climate change. The present remote sensing and geographic information system (RS and GIS) based analysis of the BR revealed an increased Braiding Intensity (BI) from 1976 to 2000, which declined in 2010, and re-emerged in 2020. The average maximum width of the river has generally widened over time and sandbar distribution has exhibited fluctuations. The overall active channel area increased by 1.5 times, and the sandbar area expanded by 1.2 times between 1976 and 2020. The interplay between braiding intensity and width reveals a positive relationship. The sandbar-water ratio reveals a significant prevalence of sandbars in the Brahmaputra River. Furthermore, the study highlights changes in the Bar Development Index (BDI), showing a significant increase in micro-bars and meso-bars but a decrease in macro-bars. With the approach of change detection, key factors observed within the river driving the changes are erosion, channel bifurcations, sandbar formation due to sediment deposition, and sandbar loss due to shifts in channel course. These characteristics are potentially influenced by high water and sediment influx, climate change, and anthropological activities.

description: The hydrological processes within the catchment are generally influenced by both climate change (CC) and land use/land cover (LULC) change. However, most of the studies are focused on their individual impact on the catchment’s hydrology, while their combined effects have received little attention. This study employs the physically based distributed hydrological model, MIKE SHE, to study the separate and combined effect of climate and LULC change on the hydrology of a mesoscale catchment in the near future (2050s). An Artificial Neural Network – Cellular Automata (ANN-CA) based prediction model was trained to simulate the future LULC map. The future meteorological data under four CC scenarios was obtained from the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI). The model results showed that the combined effects of CC with LULC changes did not significantly differ from the individual impact of CC on the catchment scale. However, on the local scale, the changes in LULC can significantly influence the variations in groundwater table, soil moisture, and actual evapotranspiration ranging from approximately – 6–15%, – 9–27%, and – 30–10% respectively, depending on the specific change in LULC class and season. In summary, this research provides valuable insights into the complex interactions between LULC changes, CC, and hydrology.

description: To tackle the eutrophication of Lake Erie, USA and Canada agreed to reduce phosphorus levels by 40% by 2025. An accurate simulation of water quality and quantity is essential to achieve this goal. Various hydrological and water quality models have been applied in the Lake Erie Basin for this purpose. However, uncertainty in channel geometry parameters leads to uncertainty in sediment and nutrient loadings. Besides, the presence of reservoirs significantly affects the sediment and nutrient loads as they are transported through the streams. Thus, improving how these models calculate channel geometry parameters and reservoir processes can minimize the uncertainty and improve the estimation of these loads. So, this study tested the applicability of regional regression equations for in-stream and reservoir processes in the SWAT model which currently uses a single nationwide curve to derive channel geometry parameters, and a simplistic mass-balance approach to simulate sediment and nutrients in water bodies such as reservoirs. Their impact on water quantity and quality was investigated for two Canadian watersheds- Guelph and Pittock. Results showed that calibrating and validating the model at reservoir inlets and outlets, modifications to channel geometry parameters and sediment transport methods significantly improved predictions. The inclusion of reservoir routines enhanced the accuracy of streamflow simulations, while the modified Vollenweider equations outperformed SWAT in simulating reservoir nutrient loadings.

description: Droughts are one of the most spatially complex geohazards, having a significant impact on the economic status of any region. To mitigate drought risks, a comprehensive drought management plan is required, and the first step towards that goal is to assess the various aspects of drought risks in the preparation of a drought risk map. To produce an integrated drought risk map for Mahanadi River basin, India, the current study combines geospatial methodologies with the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) technique to assess various dimensions, viz. hydrological, meteorological, agricultural and socio-economic drought risk in the region in view of integrated rural-urban management strategies. A total of 17 criteria from different aspects were taken into consideration in different groups. The results showed that districts like Raipur, Bilaspur, Durg and Ragnandgaon faced extreme drought conditions combining assessments of agriculture, water resources, socioeconomic factors and weather patterns, reveals varying levels of risk across the region. According to the findings, 22.01% of the region is vulnerable to extreme drought and 31.64% of the area is suffering from severe drought. The results indicate that the technique used for identifying the region's susceptibility to drought is effective, which will help planners develop strategies for mitigating drought.
