8) CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF BOREHOLE WATER IN TWO LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREAS OF ONDO STATE WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO POTENTIAL TOXIC METALS

 ABSTRACT Many households are used to the construction of shallow wells, but the wells hardly provide adequate water supply in term of volume and quality throughout the year. As a result, government adopted the construction of boreholes as an alternative to pipe-borne water supply and as an immediate solution to water supply and quality problem.... Continue Reading

10) APPLICATION OF THE STANDARDIZED PRECIPITATION EVAPOTRANSPIRATION INDEX (SPEI) IN BENIN-OWEN A RIVER BASIN, NIGERIA

 ABSTRACT Precipitation deficit and its daily, seasonal and annual oscillations are inherent characteristics of Nigeria's climate. Droughts are generally characterized by a prolonged and abnormal moisture deficiency. In drought studies it is important to characterize the start and end of a drought as well as its intensity, duration, frequency... Continue Reading

11) GEOSPATIAL ASSESSMENTS OF HYDROLOGICAL IMPACT OF FLOOD OCCURRENCES IN ADO-EKITI AND ENVIRONS

ABSTRACT Drought is one of the a resultant effect of climate change and it is the naturally occurring phenomenon that exists when precipitation has been significantly below normal recorded levels, causing serious hydrological imbalances that adversely affect land resource production systems. Unlike many other natural hazards, drought develops... Continue Reading

12) GEOSPATIAL ASSESSMENTS OF HYDROLOGICAL IMPACTS OF FLOOD OCCURRENCES IN ADO-EKITI AND ENVIRONS

ABSTRACT Flood risk assessment is an important component of risk management. This study aims to generate a GIS-based flood risk map that can facilitate proper planning of mitigation measures against future floods occurrences. This study uses GIS technique and remotely sensed data to assess the extent of urbanization in land use, and vegetation... Continue Reading

13) STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF RAINFALL CHARACTERISTICS IN AKURE, ONDO STATE.

ABSTRACT This study examines the trends, onset, cessation and growing season of rainfall over Akure using data obtained from the archive of Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NIMET) Oshodi, Lagos, over the period of 1970-2005. Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) was estimated from the available Rainfall records, Decadal analysis of Akure indicated... Continue Reading

14) QUALITY ASSESSMENT OF ABATTOIR EFFLUENT ON SURFACE WATER IN AKURE SOUTH, ONDO STATE, NIGERIA

ABSTRACT Water quality is very important in the environment, because life depends on this, it's very good to check the quality of water time to time to check the rate at which it is been degraded. The objective of this work is to determine the physiochemical and heavy metal parameter of abattoir effluent to surface water and compare the standard... Continue Reading

15) ORIGIN AND MECHANISMS OF HIGH SALINITY IN HOMBOLO DAM AND GROUNDWATER IN DODOMA MUNICIPALITY TANZANIA

Abstract The Hombolo dam (HD), in central Tanzania, is a shallow reservoir characterized by high salinity that limits its use for human activities. The origin of the salinity, mechanisms of reaching and concentrating in the dam remain unclear. These were assessed using hydrogeochemical facies, water type evolutions and mapping. The source of HD... Continue Reading
