Ganges River

Reductive dissolution of Fe oxyhydroxides holding sorbed As appears to explain the very large concentrations of As in water from wells drilled into alluvial sediments of the Brahmaputra and Ganges Rivers in Bangladesh and West Begal (Nickson et al 1998, 2000). Dissolved As has accumulated from the reduction of As-rich Fe oxyhydroxides formed upstream of the contaminated areas by weathering of As-rich base metal sulfides. The reduction is driven by sedimentary organic matter in the deposits. Release of As from oxidation of pyrite in shallow wells contributes little to the water contamination because any As(IV) released would be re-sorbed on Fe oxides formed in pyrite oxidation. [Pg.230]

Continental detritus group samples contain minerals such as illite, chlorite, and probably polycrase [(Y,Ca,Ce,U,Th)(Ti,Nb,Ta)206] and chromite [FeO(Cr,V)203], supplied from the Himalayas region via the Ganges River (Fagel et al., 1997). Th and U are highly correlated, but several continental detritus group samples... [Pg.3479]

Similar situations with pathogens have been registered in Sri Lanka and India, especially in the Ganges River. [Pg.211]

Throughout history, populations all over the world have sporadically been affected by devastating outbreaks of cholera. Records from Hippocrates (460-377 Bc) and Galen (129-216 ad) already described an illness that might well have been cholera, and numerous hints indicate that a cholera-like malady has also been known in the plains of the Ganges River since antiquity. [Pg.1539]
