Evaluation of the elemental distribution in soil samples collected from ship-breaking areas and an adjacent island

Verified

Rahat Khan, Sopan Das, Shaiful Kabir, Md. Ahosan Habib et al.

Journal: Journal of environmental chemical engineeringYear: 2019Citations: 56

Ship-breaking yards in the world mostly reside along the coastal areas which possess diverse elemental contents due to the presence of heavy minerals. So to explain the heavy elemental enrichment of ship-breaking sites in terms of only anthropogenic contribution is insufficient. While studying eleme...

Subsidence in the lower deltaic areas of Bangladesh

Verified

Monirul Hoque, Mahmood Alam

Journal: Marine GeodesyYear: 1997Citations: 25

The lower deltaic area of Bangladesh is located on two active troughs, Faridpur Trough and Hatiya Trough. Although most of the Bengal Basin is slowly subsiding, the troughs are subsiding more rapidly. The area shows evidence of three different types of subsidence: tectonic, anthropogenic, and that r...
