Geoelectrical resistivity and geochemistry monitoring of landfill leachates due to the seasonal variations and the implications on groundwater systems and public health.

Understanding the seasonal variations in the landfill leachate plumes (LLPs) properties and complex connections between concentrations of leachate variability, and its environment is essential for environmental and public health management. This study explores the combined electrical resistivity (ER) data and physiochemical water analysis (PWA) coupled with the excavations to monitor the landfill physiochemical properties (LPPs) due to seasonal variations and their implications on environmental vital organs and public health. The variations in ER and LLP distributions across the overburdened top layer due to seasonal changes were examined.

Exploring the properties of DyO-YO Co-activated telluro-borate glass: Structural, physical, optical, thermal, and mechanical properties.

The successful application of glass-based materials in a wide range of scientific fields depends on the associated physical, optical, thermal, and mechanical properties. This article investigate the structural, Physical, thermal, optical, and mechanical properties of DyO, YO co-activated telluro-borate glass developed using the melt-quenching method. The glassy quality and the elements component of the specimens were observed using XRD and EDX analyses.

Radioactivity levels in the marine environment along the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar.

A study on (137)Cs, (40)K, (226)Ra, (228)Ra, and (238)U was carried out along the EEZ of Qatar. Results serve as the first ever baseline data. The level of (137)Cs (mean value 1.

Activation energies for the formation and evaporation of vacancy clusters in silicon.

The thermal evolution of vacancy-type defects in Czochralski (Cz-) and epitaxially grown (epi-) silicon has been investigated using variable-energy positron annihilation spectroscopy. Heating at 300-500 degrees C caused rapid migration of divacancies and clustering of the resulting defects with activation energies of 2.1(2) and 2.
