Synopsis

Environmental monitoring can be described as the measured sampling of soil, air, water and biota to observe and review the environment, and to acquire data from this process. Monitoring can be performed for various purposes, including to form environmental "baselines, patterns, and overall impacts", to test ecological systems, to assess environmental modelling strategies, to test strategy plan and navigation, to guarantee consistence with natural guidelines, to review the impacts of anthropogenic impacts, or to perform natural resource inventories. A list of purposes for monitoring is introduced in this volume, and the list assists with highlighting the significance of observation and how its outcomes are ever-present in our regular lives. Environmental monitoring projects can vary altogether in the size of their spatial and temporal limits. For instance, a threatened fish in a small river and the suitability of its transient fate will need monitoring on short and regional temporal and spatial scales, whereas the management of natural systems that scale a country will require monitoring systems that are a lot more extensive in scale. Monitoring systems can vary fundamentally in scope, varying from communal monitoring on a neighborhood scale, to enormous collaborative universal monitoring projects, for example, those focused on environmental change. An outline of spatial and temporal scale applicable to environmental monitoring is discussed in the volume.

À propos de l?auteur

Professor Vinay Kumar Singh, Ph. D., Department of Zoology, DDU Gorakhpur University, born on 15th July, 1969, has a brilliant academic carrier. Prof Singh has involved himself in research on Fasciolosis and its snail vectors control since 1993. Current research interests are Isolation, characterization and biological evaluation of Natural Plant Products and pest control, Vector-Borne Diseases, Toxicology & Pharmacology. Prof Singh has University teaching and research experiences of more than 30 years. Prof Singh has successfully isolated and identified pure molluscicidal compounds from more than a dozen medicinal plants and observed their mode of action on the snails at cellular level. His work is recognized internationally in the field of formulation and use of synthetic and bio-pesticides for integrated pest/ vector-diseases management. Prof Singh has devised a bioassay method for pesticides using isolated organs of snails. Currently, he is working on the pesticidal property of the different formulations of cow urine of Indian cow breeds singly or synergistically with bioactive product of plant molluscicides. The research publication on fasciolosis control by means of characterized plant derived pesticides, synergistic combinations, bait formulations or by reducing the reproductive capacity of vector/host to limit the population below threshold level which are widely quoted and acclaimed world over. Prof Singh has published 154 research papers in 94 leading International Journals of repute.
