Opis:
The main river of the Kosovo valley is the Sitnica River, which collects a large number of streams, recipients of wastewaterfrom various urban and industrial centers. The blockage of Sitnica river with waste and non-regulation of the bedding of this river makes this river flood tens of acres of worked ground surface through its course, causing great damage every spring and autumn. Uncontrolled discharge of heavy metals into the contaminated terrestrial environments ensures their transfer to plants, animals and humans and results in an impact on the environment and public health. Determination of the heavy metals concentration level for the assessment of soil pollution along the Sitnica River course was also the main purpose of this study, which was carried out in 2016. For analysis, 8 soil samples were taken at depths of 30–50 cm. From the analysis of the data it was noticed that the content of heavy metals such as Zn, Cd, Pb, Cr in some analyzed samples exceeds the maximum allowed values. The findings indicate high values of metal pollution in the samples taken in meadows as well as the agricultural lands stretching around the river.

Opis:
The atmospheric parameters observations enable to made continental and global scales by remote sensing devices existent in space. One of these instruments is the Atmospheric InfraRed Sounder (AIRS) onboard Aqua satellite. We characterize the vertical distribution of troposphere carbon monoxide (CO) measured by AIRS over IRAQ. This study presents one year data. Results shown standard deviation of monthly troposphere CO for five locations: Baghdad, Basrah, Maysan, Al Fakka, and Mosul, from January to December 2012, was 107.15 ±18.75 ppbv for entire period depend on whether circumstance and topography. The seasonal differences undulate between winter and summer seasons, with higher values CO in the winter than in the summer and autumn seasons. In addition, the rising in troposphere CO values can be measured during year over the manufacturing and crowded urbanized zones. AIRS observations reveal enhanced abundances of CO, with values that can exceed 120 ppbv at approximately 4 km altitude over Baghdad and Mosul. The lower CO amounts observed of approximately 88–90 ppbv at 253 mb (altitude 11 km) during October. Comparisons over Baghdad station in 2012 showed close agreement between the ground CO data and the observed CO from AIRS, and regression result showed high correlation coefficient (R = 0.962). The vertical CO observation by AIRS is providing meaningful information for different altitude layers closer to the troposphere, and the satellite measurements are able to measure the increase of the atmosphere CO concentrations over varied regions.

Opis:
Shatt Al-Arab River in Basrah province, Iraq, was assessed by applying comprehensive pollution index (CPI) at fifteen sampling locations from 2011 to 2020, taking into consideration twelve physicochemical parameters which included pH, Tur., TDS, EC, TH, Na+, K+, Ca+2, Mg+2, Alk., SO4-2, and Cl-. The effectiveness of multiple linear regression (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN) for predicting comprehensive pollution index was examined in this research. In order to determine the ideal values of the predictor parameters that lead to the lowest CPI value, the genetic algorithm coupled with multiple linear regression (GA-MLR) was used. A multi-layer feed-forward neural network with backpropagation algorithm was used in this study. The optimal ANN structure utilized in this research consisted of three layers: the input layer, one hidden layer, and one output layer. The predicted equation of the comprehensive pollution index was created using the regression technique and used as an objective function of the genetic algorithm. The minimum predicted comprehensive pollution index value recommended by the GA-MLR approach was 0.3777.

Opis:
Road dust should be considered as a secondary source of contamination in the environment, especially when re-suspended. In our study road dust samples were collected from 8 high-capacity urban roads in two districts of Kraków (Krowodrza and Nowa Huta). Total concentration of toxic elements, such as Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Zn, Co, Pb, Ni, Ba and Se were determined using ICP–MS ELAN 6100 Perkin Elmer. A fractionation study were performed using VI step sequential extraction, according to the modified method provided by Salomons and Fӧrstner. Appropriate quality control was ensured by using reagent blanks and analysing certified reference material BCR 723 and SRM 1848a. Concentration of metals in the road dust varied as follows [mg/kg]: Cd 1.02–1.78, Cr 34.4–90.3, Cu 65–224, Mn 232–760, Zn 261–365, Co 4.32–6.46, Pb 85.6–132, Ni 32.2–43.9, Ba 98.9–104 and Se 78.3–132. Degree of contamination of road dust from Nowa Huta was very high (Cdeg 54) and considerable for road dust from Krowodrza (Cdeg 25). Results revealed that road dust samples were heavily contaminated with Cd, Cu, Zn, Mn, Co, Pb, Ni, Ba and Se, in amounts exceeding multiple times geochemical background values. The chemical speciation study using VI step sequential extraction, followed by assessing risk assessment code (RAC) revealed that elements in road dust are mostly bound with mobile and easy bioavailable fractions such as carbonates and exchangeable cations, with the exception for Cr and Cu being mostly associated and fixed with residual and organic matter fraction.
Zanieczyszczenia pochodzące z transportu drogowego uważane są za główny czynnik ryzyka środowiskowego odpowiedzialny za przedwczesne zgony na całym świecie. Rosnący udział emisji zanieczyszczeń związanych z komunikacją potwierdza konieczność oceny jakość środowiska drogowego poprzez określenia stopnia zanieczyszczenia pyłu drogowego oraz ocenę zagrożenia związanego z potencjalnym uwalnianiem się pierwiastków toksycznych z pyłów drogowych do środowiska wodno-glebowego. Do badań pobrany został pył drogowy z 8 odcinków dróg miejskich o dużej kongestii w dwóch dzielnicach Krakowa (Krowodrza i Nowa Huta). Stężenie metali ciężkich, takich jak Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Zn, Co, Pb, Ni, Ba i Se oznaczano metodą ICP–MS (ELAN 6100 Perkin Elmer). Frakcjonowanie przeprowadzono z zastosowaniem VI stopniowej ekstrakcji sekwencyjnej. Badania wykazały silnie zanieczyszczony Cd, Cu, Zn, Mn, Co, Pb, Ni, Ba i Se w ilościach przekraczających wielokrotnie wartości poziomów tła geochemicznego. Stężenia metali w pyle drogowym kształtowały się następująco [mg/kg]: Cd 1,02–1,78, Cr 34,4–90,3, Cu 65-224, Mn 232–760, Zn 261–365, Co 4,32–6,46, Pb 85,6–132, Ni 32,2–43,9, Ba 98,9–104 i Se 78,3–132. Stwierdzono bardzo wysoki stopień zanieczyszczenia pyłu drogowego pobranego w Nowej Hucie (Cdeg 54) i wysoki w Krowodrzy (Cdeg 25). Badania form związani metali z zastosowaniem VI stopniowej ekstrakcji sekwencyjnej, a następnie ocena kodu oceny ryzyka (RAC) wykazały, że metale w pyle drogowym są w znacznym stopniu mobile i potencjalnie łatwo mogące się uwalniać do środowiska (metalami występującymi na pozycjach jonowymiennych i/lub węglany), z wyjątkiem Cr i Cu, które w większości związane są z siarczkami, materią organiczną, ewentualnie pozostają wbudowane w sieć krystaliczna minerałów

Opis:
The aim of the study was the analysis of three wastewater treatment plants operations (Busko Zdroj, Kazimierza Wielka and Pinczow in Swietokrzyskie voivodship). The sanitary condition of sewage sludge and the management of sludge in wastewater treatment plant were investigated. These data were made available by these wastewater treatment plants. The analyses of the sewage sludge have included the sanitary basic analysis, especially the identification of Salmonella spp. and the present of intestinal parasites eggs. It stated, that the sanitary condition of the analyzed sewage sludge was acceptable. Microbiological purity of sewage sludge and mineral composition similar to soil organic matter (humus) allows to use them as natural fertilizers, but not for the cultivation of the plants intended for human consumption. These deposits have been widely used as a material for land reclamation in Pinczow. The further aim of the research was to investigate the microbiological purity of air near the two wastewater treatment plant (Stykow and Szczecno in Swietokrzyskie voivodship). The number of colony forming units of mannitol-positive Staphylococcus sp. and the total number of mesophilic and psychrophilic bacteria were analyzed in four different distance from wastewater treatment plants. Mannitolo-positive staphylococci belong to microbiological indicators of air pollution. The number of mesophilic and psychrophilic bacteria indicate the level organic matter contamination. The air pollution was observed at all measurement points. It is known, that pathogenic microorganisms can easily pass from the water to the air and next spread in the environment. This analysis shows that the use of sewage sludge to land reclamation is helpful to preserve and restore the ecological balance of mineral elements, which is an important aspect of economic and environmental protection. It is also likely, that wastewater treatment plants may have an impact on air pollution.
Celem pracy była analiza działalności trzech oczyszczalni ścieków (Busko Zdrój, Pińczów i Kazimierza Wielka) w województwie świętokrzyskim. Materiały źródłowe zostały udostępnione dzięki uprzejmości oczyszczalni ścieków. Analizowano sposób zagospodarowania i stan sanitarny osadów ściekowych. Badania mikrobiologiczne osadu dotyczyły podstawowej analizy sanitarnej, zwłaszcza identyfikacji bakterii Salmonella spp. i jaj pasożytów jelitowych. Stwierdzono, że stan sanitarny analizowanych osadów ściekowych nie zagrażał środowisku. Mikrobiologiczna czystość osadów ściekowych i skład mineralny były zbliżone do materii organicznej gleby (humus) i pozwalały na wykorzystanie ich jako nawozów naturalnych, ale nie do uprawy roślin przeznaczonych do spożycia przez ludzi. Materiał ten był szeroko stosowany do rekultywacji gruntów w Pińczowie. Kolejnym celem pracy było określenie czystości mikrobiologicznej powietrza w pobliżu dwóch oczyszczalni ścieków (Szczecno i Styków w województwie świętokrzyskim). Określano ogólną liczbę gronkowców mannitolo-dodatnich oraz bakterii mezofilnych i psychrofilnych w czterech różnych odległościach od oczyszczalni ścieków. Mannitolo-dodatnie gronkowce należą do wskaźników mikrobiologicznego zanieczyszczenia powietrza. Liczba bakterii mezofilnych i psychrofilnych wskazuje na poziom zanieczyszczenia materią organiczną. We wszystkich punktach pomiarowych zaobserwowano zanieczyszczenie powietrza. Wiadomo, że patogenne mikroorganizmy mogą łatwo przedostawać się z cieczy do powietrza za pomocą bioareozoli. Analiza ta pokazuje, że wykorzystanie osadów ściekowych do melioracji jest pomocne do zachowania i przywrócenia równowagi ekologicznej, co jest ważnym aspektem ochrony ekonomicznej i środowiskowej. Jest również prawdopodobne, że oczyszczalnie ścieków mogą mieć niekorzystny wpływ na czystość powietrza.

Opis:
Non-point source pollution is a primary cause for concern globally. Various models have been developed to tackle this situation with much emphasis placed on best management practices. This practice has, however, proven to be insufficient to solve the NPS pollution situation. Existing non-point source models are watershed- -based and complicated both in operation, parameter estimation and data requirements. A non-point source model is proposed using the concept of the Hybrid Cells in Series model. The model is a three-parameter model made up of three zones, which describes pure advection through time delay in a plug zone, with combined advection and dispersion occurring when the other two zones are considered as thoroughly mixed. The proposed model is tested using synthetic data and field data from the Snake River, Colorado, USA, obtained from literature. Simulations were performed at four sample points; two from the tracer injection point along the Snake River before a confluence and two further downstream after the confluence. A regression analysis was carried out to determine the model’s capability to simulate pollutant transport for the four sampling points. The coefficients of determination are 0.98, 0.94, 0.84 and 0.97 while the standard error for each reach is 2.28E-2, 2.70E-2, 2.32E-2 and 9.35E-3 respectively. The results show good agreement between the measured and the simulated data. The response of the C-t profiles produced by the proposed model for both synthetic and field data demonstrates its ability to effectively simulate pollutant transport in natural rivers subject to non-point source pollution.

The catchment area of Oued Larbaâ is located in the eastern prerif at the very eastern end of the large Innaouene basin, a stream of Oued Sebou [Lahrach. A et al., 1994]. The objective of the study was to establish a quality comparison of the watershed during the dry and wet seasons. Eight water and sediment samples were taken during the two seasons, all along the main channel of the Larbaa river, taking into account anthropogenic activities and the areas of confluence with its tributaries: Tarmasst, Taza, Larouireg, Defali and Jaouna. The physicochemical parameters (pH, EC, TDS, nitrates, sulfates, chlorides), as well as metal contamination (Al, Zn, Ni, Pb, Ag, Fe, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mg, Mn) were studied in summer. The results revealed the alkaline pH higher than 7, a significant electrical conductivity in several stations, but still conforming to the Moroccan standards. Laboratory analyses reflect that the waters of the basin have generally good quality, except for a few peaks that indicate metallic contamination in Fe and Al. In order to better assess whether there is an anthropogenic effect influencing these results, and to remove the relationships between the different parameters studied, a statistical analysis was carried out with the PCA tool. This analysis made it possible to indicate Cr, Ni and Al as indices of pollution in certain areas. Although the results obtained have been tolerant until now, it is necessary to put in place an action plan to control the areas at risk of contamination during the years.

We address the primary frequency bands used for cellular, wireless Local Area Network (LAN), Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) and Ultra-wideband (UWB) communications. The purpose of the experiment presented in this paper is to map the detected radio frequencies within an environment and display the collated data on a graphical user interface. A program identifies the presence of the aforementioned radio frequency signatures and recognizes signal levels which exceed the exposure standards enforced by the Australian Communication and Media Authority. The results assist in the understanding of the ramifications of long-term exposure to radio frequency radiation associated with the continued proliferation of wireless devices.

The objective of this study is to assess the physical-chemical quality of urban wastewater from the city of Boumerdès, in northern Algeria with regard to the threshold values for irrigation or their discharge in aquatic ecosystems. Five sampling points were carried out of the study area in April 2017. The results obtained of physical-chemical parameters indicating pollution show that the water course is exposed to pollution mainly of organic origin. It’s expressed by a high maximum value according to Algerian and World Health Organisation standards: chemical oxygen demand (COD 886 mg O2∙dm-3), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5 490 mg O2∙dm-3), nitrate (NO3- 73.09 mg∙dm-3), nitrite (NO2- 6 mg∙dm-3), ammonium (NH4+ 23 mg∙dm-3) and phosphates (PO43- 7.3 mg∙dm-3). The COD to BOD5 rate of 1.8, show that the effluents must be treated before being discharged into the receiving environment. However, it is lower than 2, which makes them easily biodegradable and can be treated by a biological system such as a natural lagoon. It shows also a diversified origin of the pollution. It is predominantly domestic origin, it could have an adverse effect on public health, presenting a risk of environmental eutrophication, contamination of soil and water resources. The physical-chemical characterisation of the urban wastewater shows that they are quite loaded and prezent a pollution in nitrogenous compounds, a treatment is requested before the direct discharge to the receiving environment or their reuse in the irrigation.

Opis:
Lake Obili is one of the most famous lakes in the city of Yaounde, Cameroon. Studies carried out in this lake showed that it was hyper eutrophic and therefore it represents a great danger because it is used for aquaculture, tourism and a suitable laboratory for hydro-biological engineering. It is thus very vital to restore this lake ecosystem that singles itself in the heart of the city of Yaounde. This can be greatly facilitated through the use of Water Quality Analysis Simulation Program (WASP) of the United State Environmental protection Agency (USEPA). The outcomes of the previous results obtained from EUTRO, a Subroutine of the WASP model specialised in determining eutrophication level have proven that the remediation of this lake can be achievable through the implementation of a wet dredging, the construction and restoration of a wastewater treatment plant, the implementation of environmental incentive policies and the arrangement of the access to the lake. The application of the model is a contribution to the scientific mastery of nutrient flow, lake functioning and possibilities of restauration of highly polluted tropical water bodies subjected to domestic and industrial pollution.
Jezioro Obili jest jednym z najbardziej znanych w mieście Yaounde w Kamerunie. Wyniki badań jeziora świadczą o jego skrajnej eutrofizacji, będącej poważnym zagrożeniem, ponieważ jezioro jest wykorzystywane w akwakulturze, do celów turystycznych, stanowi też laboratorium inżynierii hydrobiologicznej. Z tego powodu należałoby przeprowadzić rekultywację tego szczególnego ekosystemu jeziornego. Rekultywację jeziora może znacznie usprawnić zastosowanie programu analizy jakości symulacji wód (WASP) Agencji Ochrony Środowiska Stanów Zjednoczonych (USEPA). Wyniki poprzednich badań uzyskanych z EUTRO (podprogramu modelu WASP) wyspecjalizowanego w ocenie poziomu eutrofizacji dowiodły, że rekultywacja jeziora jest możliwa poprzez usuwanie osadów, budowę i unowocześnienie oczyszczalni ścieków, wdrożenie innowacyjnej polityki wodnej i zorganizowanie dostępu do jeziora. Zastosowanie modelu stanowi wkład w naukowe rozpoznanie przepływu pierwiastków biogennych, funkcjonowania jeziora i możliwości rekultywacji zanieczyszczonych zbiorników wodnych strefy równikowej.

Opis:
Coastal areas in Anantigha are utilized as dumpsite for industrial and domestic wastes including effluent from local industries and inhabitants of the area despite their usage for crop cultivation. Thus, the present study was designed to assess the concentration, pollution load and ecological risk of heavy metal in Anantigha coastal area. Standard pollution indices such as contamination factor (Cf), degree of contamination, pollution load index (PLI), enrichment factor (EF), geo-accumulation index (Igeo) and ecological risk index were deployed to assess the level of heavy metals contamination in the area. The results showed that the sediment was acidic under dried conditions and low in conductivity. The mean concentration levels of all the heavy metals were lower than their mean background values except for Al. The orders of dominance for concentration of heavy metals were: Al>Fe>Mn>Cu>Zn (Station 1) and Al>Fe>Mn>Zn>Cu (Stations 2, 3 and 4). Analyzed data showed that the sediments in the area are contaminated with Al with Igeo result showing station 2 and 4 been moderately to heavily contaminated with Al while station 4 was heavily contaminated with aluminium. Station 1 had low degree of contamination, whereas station 2 and 4 had moderate degree of contamination, and station 3 showed considerable degree of contamination. The PLI result indicates unpolluted condition and the area were not enriched by the studied heavy metals as shown by EF values. Hence, the sediment in Anantigha coastal marine area was classified as having low ecological risk factor. However, the levels of these metals are not static; there is tendency for increase as a result of increased human input and activities. Hence, there is a need for regular soil testing.

Opis:
Nutrient pollution such as nitrate (NO3−) can cause water quality degradation in rivers used as a source of drinking water. This situation raises the question of how the nutrients have moved depending on many factors such as land use and anthropogenic sources. Researchers developed several nutrient export coefficient models depending on the aforementioned factors. To this purpose, statistical data including a number of factors such as historical water quality and land use data for the Melen Watershed were used. Nitrate export coefficients are estimates of the total load or mass of nitrate (NO3−) exported from a watershed standardized to unit area and unit time (e.g. kg/km2/day). In this study, nitrate export coefficients for the Melen Watershed were determined using the model that covers the Frequentist and Bayesian approaches. River retention coefficient was determined and introduced into the model as an important variable.

Opis:
Estuaries are coastal areas that have a fairly high fertility rate. This region can be said to be fertile because it is influenced by such physical factors as temperature, turbidity, light, and current as well as such chemical factors as salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, and nutrient content. The estuary of the Banjar Kemuning River is a coastal area with a lot of human activities, and it is close to the mainland, causing the change in the nutrient content in the waters. The nutrient content in the waters is closely related to the phytoplankton abundance, as the higher the nutrient content in the waters, the greater the phytoplankton abundance and the chlorophyll-a content. The level of chlorophyll-a content in the waters can indirectly be used as an indicator of the phytoplankton abundance, which can determine the level of fertility of these waters. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the phytoplankton abundance and the chlorophyll-a content in the estuary of the Banjar Kemuning River. This study is observational research with data analysis using linear regression, simple correlation (Pearson), and ANOVA. In addition, the data collection was carried out by purposive random sampling at predetermined points of stations. The results of this study indicated that the phytoplankton abundance and the chlorophyll-a content at the estuary of Banjar Kemuning River during different months were significantly different (P < 0.05). The average phytoplankton abundance during the study was 19,256 cells/L, 19,044 cells/L, and 22,613 cells/L, while the average chlorophyll-a content during the study was 0.958 µg/L, 0.998 µg/L, and 1.167 µg/L. The conclusion was drawn that there is a difference between the phytoplankton abundance and the chlorophyll-a content each month and classified into high correlation.

Opis:
Yemen is one of the developing countries suffering from water pollution. Landfill is one of the sources of water pollution. A study of composition of landfill leachate was conducted at Ibb landfill, located at Al-Sahool area, north of Ibb City, Yemen. The leachate was sampled at five different landfill locations during dry season, due to the excessive generation of leachate during this season. The physicochemical characteristic of leachate, such as pH, temperature, EC, TDS, DO were measured in-situ. Also, biological parameters such as COD and BOD5, major anions and nitrogenous compound such as Cl, SO4, NO2, NO3, NH3-N, major cations (Na, Mg, Ca, K, Fe) and heavy metals (Pb, Zn, Ni, Cr, Cd, Cu) were analysed in the laboratory. The results showed that, the leachate from Ibb landfill is in methanogenic phase. The first leachate site at Al-Sahool area was characterized by the highest values of most physico-chemical parameters. However, the quantitative results of most studied parameters were generally decreased towards downstream sites (1-5). The BOD5/COD value of 0.1 to 0.7 obtained for leachate suggested the partially stabilization. The concentrations of heavy metals were found in relatively high levels (except Cu). Therefore, a leachate collection pond should be built to collect and treat the leachate to prevent further contamination as well as build more sanitary landfill facilities in Al-Sahool area to prevent further ecological contamination and keep public health safer.
Jemen jest jednym z krajów, które borykają się z zanieczyszczeniem wód. Składowiska odpadów są jednym ze źródeł zanieczyszczeń wód. Celem pracy jest badanie właściwości oraz charakterystyka odcieku ze składowiska zlokalizowanego w mieście Al-sahool, w północnej części województwa IBB w Republice Jemenu. Próbki przeznaczone do badań pobrano z pięciu różnych lokalizacji na ww. składowisku. Próbki odcieku zebrano podczas pory suchej, ze względu na nadmierną ilość wytwarzania odcieków w tym sezonie. Właściwości fizykochemiczne takie jak pH, temperatura, przewodnictwo elektryczne właściwe (PE), suma substancji rozpuszczonych (SSR), rozpuszczony tlen (RT) zbadano na miejscu. Parametry biologiczne takie jak chemiczne zapotrzebowanie tlenu (ChZT), biologiczne zapotrzebowanie na tlen (BZT), główne aniony takie jak chlorek (Cl), siarczan (SO4) oraz azotowe związki takie jak azotyny (NO2), azotany (NO3), amoniak (NH3-N), główne kationy (Na, Mg, Ca, K, Fe) oraz metale ciężkie (Pb, Zn, Ni, Cr, Cd, Cu) analizowano w wojewódzkim laboratorium Wody i Służby Sanitarnej, IBB. Wyniki przeprowadzonych badań wykazały, iż badane odcieki są w metagonicznej fazie. Odcieki z pierwszej lokalizacji charakteryzują się najwyższymi wartościami głównych parametrów fizykochemicznych. Natomiast wyniki ilościowe większości badanych parametrów na ogół miały tendencję spadkową w kierunku lokalizacji (1-5). Wartości (BZT)/ (ChZT) od 0,1 do 0,7 otrzymano dla odcieku częściowo stabilizowanego. Koncentracja metali ciężkich była na wysokim poziomie (oprócz Cu). Wyniki badań rekomendują, że budowa basenu do gromadzenia ścieków, budowa sanitarnego składowiska jest bardzo potrzebna aby ochronić przed zanieczyszczeniami ekologicznymi.

Opis:
The precise determination of trace element concentrations in the soil of the Al-Qadisiyah Governorate is part of the Iraqi sedimentary plain is required to eliminate high levels of harmful elements in polluted soils. The soil samples were collected from 28 representative profiles in Al-Shamiyah city. The soil profiles were defined using virtual characterization. In this study, I-geo was used to analyze soil pollution. The goals and destinations of the I-geo readings Contamination of Cd, Ni, Pb, and Zn in various soil strata. I-geo (Cd) generally range from 0.58 to 4.71, I-geo (Ni) range from 0.09 to 4.07, I-geo (Pb) ranged range from 0.07 to 2.79, and I-geo (Zn) ranges from zero to 2.79, depicting the local differences in I-geo for pollutants in the research area. Suggesting that the research area had been heavily polluted from Cd in the varied layers of the soils. On the maps pertaining to Zn and Pb, the majority of the research area was primarily covered in the orange and blue hues, suggesting that a significant portion of the research area was likely to be severely polluted from Cd and Ni. Moreover, the land cover layouts of Ni in layers of the soils revealed concentrations rising towards to the western sections, which could be attributed to proximity to a major drain. The results display that its I-geo value of four trace metals generally range from non-pollute to significantly heavily polluted. The I-geo data show significant differences in levels of the Ni, Cd, Zn, and Pb in different soils strata. Including these findings, the soil in Al-Shamiya, Al-Qadisiyah Governorate contains high levels of Cd, Ni, Pb, and Zn. Industries of fossil fuel combustion, as well as other man-made wastes include agricultural nutrients, soil conditioners, and sludge, particularly, ammonium phosphate pollution in soils. The pollutant load index (PLI) reveals a baseline level of contamination in 28 locations, as well as a decline in soil quality in four others. Finally, assessing the danger of contamination for trace metals utilizing the I-geo and PLI by using the GIS method and multimodal models is a helpful and relevant strategy.
