Pollution trends

Water pollution trends have particularly worsened in China in recent years. The industrial development (as certified from oil demand) and the intensive agriculture (China is the world s largest consumer of synthetic nitrogen fertilizers) pose a threat to water bodies. [Pg.20]

PERSONAL MONITORING IS A RELATIVELY NEW CONCEPT in community air pollution measurement research (1-3). This fact is not surprising because most air pollution investigations have been directed toward the characterization of the ambient atmosphere, the observation of pollutant trends, the acquisition of data on chemical kinetic parameters and on the physical properties of aerosols, and the determination of compliance to national and other standards (4). Before the late 1970s, research on personal monitors was primarily conducted in industrial settings (5, 6) because American Confer-... [Pg.381]

A specific protocol has been developed for the rough estimation of the concentrations of unknown substances, for which the standard chemical is not available. The database will be used as a tool to define new emerging threats in various environmental compartments and allows the user to trace occurrence and pollution trends for substances which are currently not included in major monitoring schemes because of the lack of knowledge of their identity. A set of criteria is being developed to... [Pg.364]

On the basis of their specific accumulation potential for certain pollutants, biological samples have the advantage that changes in the local or regional pollution situation can be recognized much more easily. They thus have a special indicator function in the determination of pollutant trends or the early recognition of new chemicals in the environment (see Fig. 1). [Pg.57]
