“…However, the real dry period known as the "August break" is generally observed in the 2 to 3 weeks in late July and early August in most parts of southern Nigeria. It is also called "little dry season" (Asadu 2002;Adeniyi and Oladiran 2006;Adejuwon and Odekunle 2006). 3.…”

“…Today, the issue of environmental pollution has become an important topic to be discussed at international levels, and to organize international conferences to find solutions for the issue. The natural radioactivity distribution as well as the manmade pollution in environment beats the alarm of the hazardous of our life that have become a big problem in this century (1).…”

“…Much of the evidence regarding these differences is derived from the long-term monitoring of the fate of aerosol particles released after the Chernobyl accident (via sampling stations scattered throughout European countries) [1,2] and from monitoring the fate of such particles after nuclear tests [3,4]. Extensive studies on the patterns of radionuclide distribution after the Chernobyl accident have demonstrated that radioactive aerosols do not follow traditional aerosol transport and deposition mechanisms [1].…”

“…Extensive studies on the patterns of radionuclide distribution after the Chernobyl accident have demonstrated that radioactive aerosols do not follow traditional aerosol transport and deposition mechanisms [1]. However, the information obtained from monitoring and from conventional models of radioactive aerosol transport cannot be used to develop reliable tools for predicting possible scenarios of radioactive contaminant transport if nuclear reactor accidents or weapon-testing accidents were to occur [1][2][3][4]. Controlled fire experiments within the Chernobyl exclusion zone have shown that important secondary contamination was found in clean areas due to transport and deposition of aerosols in the fire plumes [5].…”
