  • Eutrophication Status of Marine Environment of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru Ports
    EUTROPHICATION STATUS OF MARINE ENVIRONMENT OF MUMBAI AND JAWAHARLAL NEHRU PORTS S.S. SAWANT*, L. PRABHUDESSAI and K. VENKAT National Institute of Oceanography, Dona Paula, Goa - 403 004, INDIA (* author for correspondence, email:[email protected], fax:91(0)832 2450704, tel:91(0) 832 2450380) Running head: EUTROPHICATION STATUS OF MARINE ENVIRONMENT 2 Abstract. The marine environment of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru ports was monitored for some environmental and biological parameters during three different periods between 2001 and 2002. The results are compared with the records available since sixties. With the passage of time the environmental status underwent changes, probably due to the increase in anthropogenic activities in the metropolis. The nutrient level especially the nitrate concentration has increased gradually over the years with a simultaneous decrease in dissolved oxygen, indicating increase in the biological activity. Characterization of this environment based on Assessment of Estuarine Trophic Status (ASSETS) model indicates that the current status is poor and may get worsen in future if no appropriate management policies are put into place. Keywords: eutrophication, mumbai, jawaharlal nehru, modeling, marine, anthropogenic, nutrients, environment. 3 1. Introduction Unprecedented increase of human activities, in and around Mumbai, has imposed considerable stress on the surrounding marine environment, including Mumbai harbour. Mumbai is one of the fastest growing regions of India. Its population has increased from 4 million in 1960 to 7.7 million in 1971. It is projected to increase from 18.3 million as per 2001 census to 22.4 million in 2011. This increase in population are well on the potential expansion of trade through shipping is likely to worsen the situation unless management policies are put into place (Acharya and Nangia, 2004).

  • Study of Housing Typologies in Mumbai
    HOUSING TYPOLOGIES IN MUMBAI CRIT May 2007 HOUSING TYPOLOGIES IN MUMBAI CRIT May 2007 1 Research Team Prasad Shetty Rupali Gupte Ritesh Patil Aparna Parikh Neha Sabnis Benita Menezes CRIT would like to thank the Urban Age Programme, London School of Economics for providing financial support for this project. CRIT would also like to thank Yogita Lokhande, Chitra Venkatramani and Ubaid Ansari for their contributions in this project. Front Cover: Street in Fanaswadi, Inner City Area of Mumbai 2 Study of House Types in Mumbai As any other urban area with a dense history, Mumbai has several kinds of house types developed over various stages of its history. However, unlike in the case of many other cities all over the world, each one of its residences is invariably occupied by the city dwellers of this metropolis. Nothing is wasted or abandoned as old, unfitting, or dilapidated in this colossal economy. The housing condition of today’s Mumbai can be discussed through its various kinds of housing types, which form a bulk of the city’s lived spaces This study is intended towards making a compilation of house types in (and wherever relevant; around) Mumbai. House Type here means a generic representative form that helps in conceptualising all the houses that such a form represents. It is not a specific design executed by any important architect, which would be a-typical or unique. It is a form that is generated in a specific cultural epoch/condition. This generic ‘type’ can further have several variations and could be interestingly designed /interpreted / transformed by architects.

Boroleb aRegional Centre, National Institute of Oceanography, Mumbai – 400 053, India. bNational Institute of Oceanography, Dona-Paula, Goa-403 004, India. *Corresponding author, e-mail address- [email protected] Phone number: +91 22-26359605-08, fax: +91 22-26364627 _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract A mercury–cell chlor-alkali plant operating at Airoli (eastern bank of Thane Creek) for 40 years, caused widespread contamination of the surrounding environment. Untreated wastewater from the plant was discharged to Thane Creek for several years. Thane Creek joins to Ulhas Estuary, an impacted estuary by mercury (Hg) released by several industries including two chlor- alkali industries by a narrow arm and opens to Arabian Sea through Mumbai Harbour. In order to understand historical record of anthropogenic Hg and its association to Al, Fe and total organic carbon (TOC), estimation of Hg, Al, Fe and TOC was made in surface sediments and cores from Thane Creek-Mumbai Harbour (Bay) and the adjacent coastal area. Though 70 % of the plant has been changed to membrane-cell based technology, surficial sediment in the vicinity of effluent release contain high concentration (up to 1.19 μg g-1 dry wt) of Hg as compared to its background value (0.10 µg g-1 dry wt). The contaminated creek sediments are prone to current-driven resuspension and are acting as a strong source of Hg to the sediment of coastal region.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous environmental contaminants which have caused worldwide concerns as toxic pollutant. This study reports the concentrations of 15 PAHs in 5 species of fish samples collected along the harbour line, Mumbai, between 2006 and 2008. Among 5 species of fish investigated, Mandeli, Coilia dussimieri, detected the maximum concentration of PAHs (P<0.05) followed by Doma, Otolithes ruber. The concentration of total and carcinogenic PAHs ranged from 17.43 to 70.44 ng/g wet wt. and 9.49 to 31.23 ng/g wet wt, respectively, among the species tested. The lower-molecular-weight PAHs were detected at highest levels. Estimated intakes of PAHs by fish consumption for the general population were ranged between 1.77 and 10.70 ng/kg body weight/day.

Sixty species were recorded during the investigation period (2000 – 2001). These species mainly belong to phylum annelida (11 species), bryozoa (22 species), cirripedes (4 species), mollusca (5 species.), coelenterata (6 species), tunicata (10 species) and porifera (2 species). Thirty five species have been recorded from tidal basin. Which is influenced by organic pollutants released through sewage water. Among sixty recorded species, 16 were new records from the region. There is significant variation in density from month to month at Near-shore waters and at Tidal basin. Species settled in pre-monsoon were significantly higher than species settled in monsoon and post monsoon. Settlement pattern varies with seasons at Near-shore waters and at Tidal basin.
