Geochemical Trends in Weathering Profiles and Their Underlying Precambrian Basement Rocks in Akure, Southwestern Nigeria

Image
  Keywords: Akure Nigeria Geochemical trends In-situ weathering profile Kaolinitic ABSTRACT Akure area in southwestern Nigeria falls within the basement complex  underlain by migmatite, quartzite granite and charnockite. Geochemical  features of these crystalline rocks and their overlying in-situ weathering  profiles are investigated and reported. Analytical result from ICP-MS  facility at the University of Malaya reveals average SiO2 content in  quartzite (91.1%), granite (73.8%), migmatite (67.4%) and charnockite  (58.6%) categorize the rocks as siliceous. SiO2 contents in the weathering  profiles above these rocks are 61.9%, 60.2%, 52.2% and 54.6%  respectively. Alumina contents in the weathering profiles overlying  quartzite (23.8%), granite (19.9%), migmatite (26.3%) and charnockite  (24.3%) are substantially higher than the precursor rocks. In the same  order, average alkali (Na2O+K2O) contents in the profiles are 3.38%, 3.42%,  3.48% and 2.68%. Chemical features of the profiles

Mapping Seasonal Variation in the Distribution and Concentration of Heavy Metals Using Water Quality Index and Geographic Information Sys- tem Based Applications

Image
  Keywords Environmental pollution Fosu lagoon Heavy metals Public education Seasonal variation ABSTRACT Incessant monitoring of water is essential in terms of heavy metals and tox-ic substances as it provides detailed information on aquatic resources. Ma-jority of lagoons receive freshwater from their catchment areas containing industrial and domestic waste. The paper analysed seasonal variations in the distribution and concentrations of Lead (Pb), Copper (Cu), Cadmium (Cd), and Manganese (Mn) in the Fosu lagoon in Ghana to ascertain the quality of the lagoon. Water was sampled from eighteen (18) different points on the lagoon and was analysed at the Water Research Institute (WRI) of the Center for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) using Atomic Absorp-tion Spectrometry (AAS) and the results were interpolated using kriging. The results obtained were compared with the World Health Organisation water quality index. Statistical analysis of heavy metal concentrations using Pearson’

Self-health Monitoring and Reporting System for COVID-19 Patients Using CAN Data Logger

Keywords: COVID-19 Home isolation CAN protocol Data logger MAX30102 Health-monitoring ABSTRACT In the evolving situation of highly infectious coronavirus, the number of  confirmed cases in India has largely increased, which has resulted in a  shortage of health care resources. Thus, the Ministry of Health and Family  Welfare- Government of India issued guidelines for the ‘Home isolation  of COVID-19 positive patients’ methodology for asymptomatic patients or  with mild symptoms. During home isolation, the patients are required to  monitor and record the pulse rate, body temperature, and oxygen saturation  three times a day. This paper proposes a system that can request data from  the required sensor to measure the pulse rate, body temperature, or oxygen  saturation. The requested data is sensed by the respective sensor placed  near the patients’ body and sent to the CAN data logger over the CAN bus.  The CAN data logger live streams the sensor values and stores the same to  an excel sh
