Soil minerals are formed by the weathering of parent material, which is the source of soil. Understanding the association between vegetation and soil dynamics is evident and that can be used for the sustainable management of soils. Two diverse forest types including an evergreen forest and a rubber plantation were selected for the study. The soil profiles were dug up to 1.5m and collected soil samples from each horizon. These collected soil samples were used for physicochemical and mineralogical analysis which includes X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. pH was found acidic in both systems. The organic carbon percentage was observed high in the evergreen forest (3.29%) and low in the rubber plantation (0.63 %). The soils in both forest systems were classified to the order Ultisols. The mineralogical studies have shown that the soils of the evergreen forest were least weathered than the rubber plantation.<#LINE#>Ehrenfeld, J.G., Ravit, B. and Elgersma, K.

The present study at this location, precisely Mathilmoola colony and nearby areas of Chaliyar Panchayath assessed the impacts of flood on vegetation with focus on plant species diversity and invasive plant dissemination. Ten 10×10 m quadrants are taken in the study area, 5 represented floods affected and 5 represented non flood affected regions, having same topography. Species density, frequency, abundance and relative density are calculated. The result substantiates that invasive plant dissemination is relatively high in flood affected area. The relative density of invasive species is more (79.07%) in flood affected area compared to that (65.03%) in the non-affected area. This clearly shows that the flood has favored the distribution of diverse exotic alien species and accelerated the growth of invasive plant species already inhabited in the area.  Even if relative density of invasive species is high, they are not frequently and uniformly distributed in the flooded quadrants. This gives the clear idea about influence of fury on the carrying and re-distribution of species in its natural habitat during flood.<#LINE#>Mishra, V., Aadhar, S., Shah, H., Kumar, R., Pattanaik, D.

(PG) College, Raisi, Haridwar, Uttarakhand, India<#LINE#>8/6/2021<#LINE#>18/8/2021<#LINE#>Microbes are found in all places including drinking water and affect our life directly or indirectly. They include non-pathogenic as well as disease causing pathogenic species. Drinking water, a key resource of our food supply has been invaded by countless pathogenic microbes. The main cause of this problem lies in the transportation machinery of drinking water which is riddled with ineffective and obsolete components resulting in chemical as well as microbial contamination leading to water-borne afflictions. Hence, regular and systematic surveillance of drinking water and its distribution networks for harmful microbes is needed to determine the level of contamination. A precise review of literature on contamination of drinking water due to pathogenic microbes and disease outburst in Uttarakhand was conducted. The study concluded that total coliform and faecal coliform contamination in raw water such as rivers and lakes is more than water treatment plants. Although ground water was found to be satisfactory.<#LINE#>Gaurav Naveen (2016).@Detection of quality of water from different places of Dehradun, Uttarakhand state.@International Journal of Core Engineering and Management, 2(10), 180-204.@Yes$Payment, P., Siemiatycki, J., Richardson, L., Renaud, G., Franco, E., & Prevost, M.

Radioactivity is found in rocks, soil, air, water, building materials, foods etc. Natural radioactivity (232Th, 40K) that radiates from natural resources is the main contributor to the exposure of biota. Along with that, anthropogenic radionuclides (137Cs, 134Cs, 90Sr) also have a significant role to external exposure impact and human health effect. This paper reviews the theoretical interpretation of radioactive pollution when it exceeds permissible unit. The radioactivity concentration of radionuclides above the threshold level is detrimental to human health as well as environmental components. Swift dividing cells of mammals are the most vulnerable and generally experience the maximum consequential damage from acute exposure (bone marrow, lymphatic tissue). Cellular damage of DNA may occur towards high levels of radiation exposure that results in cancer, genetic deformation of genes, cardiovascular disorder and in some cases death. Thus, the understanding of the contribution of radioactive material present in the surrounding plays a beneficiary role in radiation protection. As gamma radiation is emitted from primordial radionuclides and has a high penetration capacity, gamma-ray spectrometry system is used for the measurement of radioactivity.<#LINE#>Kaur, G., Singh, J.
