The accident was assumed to release, among other types of radionuclides, 1E + 16 Bq 131I in 24 h. The simulation of radioactive plumes using the FLEXPART model has revealed peak concentrations of radionuclides in the air and dry and wet depositions on the ground marking the passage of radioactive plumes over the receptor sites. The northeast monsoon wind drives the peak dry depositions in winter, while the peak wet depositions are associated mainly with the high monsoon rainfall in summer. The accident impact, reflected in the frequency of plume passage over the receptor site and the resultant radiation dose to people, decreases exponentially with the distance to F-NPP. The impact on Mongcai was most severe, implying people would be advised to stay indoors during plume passage. Meanwhile, at Danang, 630 km south of F-NPP, the impact was insignificant, as plumes rarely passed through, and the maximum dose was as low as the annual dose due to exposure from naturally occurring radionuclides in soils.","PeriodicalId":13141,"journal":{"name":"Human and Ecological Risk Assessment: An International Journal","volume":"74 1","pages":"916 - 926"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83998290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, the new Multifactor-Quantitative joint Prediction Model (MQPM) is developed to quantitatively predict the Groundwater Storage Anomalies (GWSA), which includes an annual multifactor module and a monthly quantitative module. The correlative coefficients from two modules between simulated GWSA and observed GWSA reach up to 0.98 and 0.87, respectively. Taking Beijing as an example, results show that GWSA trends before South-to-North Water Diversion (SNWD) (2005–2014) and after SNWD (2015–2018) are at a rate of −3.00 × 108 m3/yr and 1.95 × 108 m3/yr, respectively, which reflects the effectiveness of water diversion. Additionally, the predicted results show that GWSA from the multifactor module will increase to 45.97 × 108 m3 by 2028. The quantitative module designs four scenarios under different climate changes and policies, from which the predicted GWSA with values ranging from 28.49 × 108 m3 to 63.06 × 108 m3. For the latter module, the groundwater level will recover to ∼8.9 m up to 2028, combining multiple favorable conditions. Finally, factors consisting of water diversion, climate change, and water-saving policies have a vital influence on groundwater variations, and contributions of these factors to the GWSA account for 46%, 27%, and 27%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":13141,"journal":{"name":"Human and Ecological Risk Assessment: An International Journal","volume":"66 1","pages":"881 - 901"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81462091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A sensitivity analysis was performed to clarify the influence of input parameters on the health risks. In the paint production, paint packing, and thinner packing workshops, the concentration of at least two aromatic compounds exceeded the occupational exposure limit. Ethylbenzene posed greater carcinogenic risks than benzene. The individual and total cancer risk of benzene and ethylbenzene exceeded the 1E–4 level, indicating a definite cancer risk in all workshops of the factory. The mean of total non-cancer risk exceeded the standard (hazard index = 1) in all workshops with xylene as the most contributing aromatics in non-cancer risk. Putty production (428.5), thinner packing (340.79), and spray paint packing (148.45) were the workshops with the greatest hazard index. Sensitivity analysis indicated that the concentration of ethylbenzene and xylene contributed the most to cancer (73.0%) and non-cancer (87.8%) risks.

The variation of water and sediment physicochemical variables, zoobenthos and plankton composition and density, and clam pathogen were investigated at five locations. In addition, long-term variations of temperature, rainfall, and sunshine duration in the area were investigated. The results illustrated the increased temperature, rainfall, and sunshine duration tendency. The clam-cultured species and activities had substantially changed. Ma On and Noru negatively impacted water quality by decreasing the water quality index by 39% and 30%, respectively. Storms decreased water salinity, alkalinity, and sediment’s phosphorus, iron, lead. However, they increased water’s nitrite, phosphorus, total suspended solid, phytoplankton, zooplankton density, and sediment’s total nitrogen, cadimium. The total Vibrio spp. density in clam highly fluctuated between the two storm events. The effect of storm varied according to site location.

It was found that soil As contents varied from 0.3 to 15.9 mg kg−1 ( = 7.22 ± 0.3 mg kg−1), whereas straw As content was about one order of magnitude lower ( = 0.92 ± 0.1 mg kg−1). The content of As in grain varied from “not detectable” to 1115 µg kg−1 ( = 73 ± 19 µg kg−1). Relatively similar geographical distribution patterns were observed for soil As and straw As, meanwhile grain As did not reveal a clear association with straw As and soil As. The accumulation of As in rice (straw and grain) were likely affected by various factors, but the mutual effects of soil As pool and soil properties were the most obvious. The East coastal area of the MRD has been identified as a vulnerable area to As threat. This finding suggests that in addition to the action plans to preserve coastal paddy soils from the threats of sea level rise and salt intrusion, contamination of As should also be considered.","PeriodicalId":13141,"journal":{"name":"Human and Ecological Risk Assessment: An International Journal","volume":"9 1","pages":"801 - 816"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83192348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper aims to take Jiangsu as an example, understand the evolution of the spatial structure and the evolution of the water transportation industry, and explore the factors affecting development from the perspective of low-carbon development. Based on ArcGIS and multi-source data, methods such as Standard Deviation Ellipse (SDE) were used to understand the evolution, and the factors influencing the evolution at different stages were explored based on the green total factors such as industrial pollutions. It shows that the scale of the water transportation is expanding, but the industrial upgrading is not realized and has multiple agglomeration cores. The evolution was initially more affected by non-interventional factors such as geographical environment, while later the influence weakened significantly. The disordered development of water transportation industry has been worsening the current inefficient industrial structure and environmental risks. Further integration of industrial structure is needed, and strong administrative means are needed to help tap the unrealized spatial potential of resource integration.","PeriodicalId":13141,"journal":{"name":"Human and Ecological Risk Assessment: An International Journal","volume":"41 1","pages":"817 - 835"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90373658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has developed a method for assessing potential human health risks from groundwater contamination that involves extensive groundwater sampling and analysis. However, this approach can be labor intensive and stand as a constraint to the robustness of the traditional approach. Here in machine learning (ML) could be alternative approaches to bridging the contemporary challenges. Machine learning models (ML) such as deep neural networks (DNN), gradient boosting machines (GBM), random forests (RF) and generalized linear models (GLM) can provide alternative solutions to overcome these limitations. In this study, the effectiveness of Hybrid Monte Carlo Machine Learning (MC-ML) models was evaluated by predicting health risks using hazard quotients. A total of 32 groundwater samples were collected and analyzed for nitrate and physical properties during the pre- and post-monsoon seasons. The results showed that the groundwater was severely contaminated by elevated nitrate concentrations, leading to high hazard quotient values. The prediction model results and validation using error and performance metrics showed that the Hybrid MC-DNN model outperformed the other models in both the training and testing phases. These results suggest that this surrogate approach could be a promising alternative to traditional health risk assessment methods.","PeriodicalId":13141,"journal":{"name":"Human and Ecological Risk Assessment: An International Journal","volume":"16 1","pages":"777 - 800"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86551880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Findings showed that the concentration of fluoride in Munger lies from 0.029 to 12 (mg/l) and 13.8% of total samples contain fluoride exceeding the allowable limit (1.5 mg/l). Hazard quotient value through ingestion of drinking water with high-level fluoride content varies from 0.625 to 8.571 whereas via dermal exposure hazard, quotient value lies in between 0.001 to 0.012. Therefore, the total hazard quotient obtained in Munger varied from 0.626 to 8.58. This indicates that children in Munger are highly vulnerable to non-carcinogenic health risks via prolonged fluoride intake mainly through the drinking water pathway. The outcome of the sensitivity analysis revealed that the concentration of fluoride is the most influential parameter in non-carcinogenic health risk.","PeriodicalId":13141,"journal":{"name":"Human and Ecological Risk Assessment: An International Journal","volume":"21 1","pages":"757 - 776"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74174642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
