Seasonal Variations of Heavy Metals Concentrations in Different Organs of Carassius auratus (Gibelio, Bloch, 1782) Fish, Caught at Al-Hammar Marsh, Southern Iraq | Chapter 3 | Challenging Issues on Environment and Earth Science Vol. 8

 The bioaccumulation of certain heavy metals: Co, Cu, Fe, Ni, and Pb in different organs: muscles, gills, ovary, and kidney of carassius auratus gibelio (Bloch,1982) caught from waters of Al-Hammar marsh, Southern part of Iraq, was studied using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry for the period Jan. 2016 to Dec. 2016, one cruse per month. Fe was found in high concentrations in all of the organs tested and throughout the seasons, with the largest concentrations occurring during the two winter months. Co and Cu were found in moderate amounts in the organs of Carassius auratus gibelio, although Ni and Pb were not. were the last to arrive. The gills and liver, on the other hand, accumulated the most heavy metals, while the muscles and ovary accumulated the least. The accumulation of heavy metals in the organs of carassius auratus gibelio fish from Hor Al-Hammar, Iraq's southern marshes, follows the Fe> Co > Cu > Ni > Pb trend. The results of metal concentrations in several organs of the fish Carassius auratus gibelio demonstrated that the Hor Al-Hammar marsh ecosystems are free of harmful metals Ni and Pb.

An Overview in Disadvantages of the Modern Communications | Chapter 4 | New Insights into Physical Science Vol. 13

 Social networking, among other things, has made life simpler for people in modern societies. Many improvements have occurred as a result of communication and technology in all aspects of life. High speed in, translations, transportation, time reduction, knowledge exchange between people, and other situations. Communication can be described as a process in which people share their thoughts, ideas, and knowledge through a variety of means, including writing, reading, symbols, signs, expression, and communication. We reviewed and addressed the reasons for the poor (disadvantage) of communications in Iraq, as well as the outcomes. In Iraq, the majority of communications and network companies are also using outdated and ineffective methods of communication connectivity. Since the year 2003, everybody is eager to use and live a modern life with the use of information technology (IT), but they haven't considered or forgotten what happened to them when they used the networks with the worst connectivity. The aim of this research is to look into all aspects of life that are more critical for people's lives, such as (health, economy, cost, protection, maintenance, high-quality manufacturing, services network, week internet (wobbling), banks, kid card cards or master card, stack the internet pack, laser planning for life, power outages and irregularities during the day, environmental pollution). All of these have an effect on one's life. We discovered a rise in, and more diseases have been discovered, including cancer, congenital malformations, abnormal birth (giving birth before her due date), hair loss, respiratory infections, skin allergies, and skin spots, and the drawer dose is high due to its proximity to the radiation source. In addition to the age problem, environmental pollution is uncontrolled in both developed and developing countries, and it has a direct impact on people's lives. As a result, the IT revolution has been impacted more than it has been beneficial. Emphasizing the inevitability and security of the information sent, as well as how hackers stole it through programme creation.

Environmental Degradation Due to Industrial Activities: A Case Study on Uttara EPZ, Bangladesh| Chapter 1 | International Research in Environment, Geography and Earth Science Vol. 5

 

The objective of this study is to classify the quality of the water and soil in the Uttara Export Processing Zone (UEPZ). In order to assess the water quality of the UEPZ, five heavy metals (Fe, Cu, Mn , Pb, Cr) were selected and two indices, such as the Heavy Metal Pollution Index (HPI) and the Contamination Index (Cd), were chosen to assess the effect on water. The probability of heavy metal contamination in the soil was assessed by geological accumulation index (I) and pollution load index (PLI) methods for seven soil samples. UEPZ is the northern region 's significant industrial belt. Finding out the environmental effects of UEPZ is an significant issue. The findings showed that heavy metal concentrations in water samples were below the allowable WHO drinking water quality limits. In three places, the HPI of water samples was 20.57, which was less than 100, the vital value for drinking water. Both findings indicate that the area is moderately or slightly contaminated. For soil the geological evaluation of the cumulative index results showed that the contamination degree of 4 heavy metals follows the sequence of Mn > Zn > Fe > Cu. Then the results of PLI of seven soil sample are 1.474 > 1.398 > 1.372 > 1.308 > 1.302 > 1.290 > 1.289. Both results show the soil sample area were unpolluted to moderately polluted. Finally, an overall impact of UEPZs environment is also discussed in this paper. This paper will help the authority to take proper steps for minimizing the soil and water pollution. The legal agreements and laws should be stronger to save the environment. The environment comes first, so sustainable development is mandatory
