(
Hamad Bin Khalifa University Press
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) concentrations in dust trapped on air conditioning unit filters operating in residential and workplace locations in Doha, Qatar were sampled and measured. Fourteen samples were collected ...
Radioactivity levels in the marine environment along the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
A study on 137Cs, 40K, 226Ra, 228Ra, and 238U was carried out along the EEZ of Qatar. Results serve as the
first ever baseline data. The level of 137Cs (mean value 1.6 ± 0.4 Bq m 3) in water filters was found to be in
the ...
