Abstract
The Proceedings of the Third National Symposium on Environment with special emphasis on high background radiation areas comprises of the papers submitted for the third symposium whose emphasis is on the high natural background radiation areas in the country. The choice of this special theme is appropriate as the symposium is being held at Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala which is sandwiched between two well-known high background monazite areas around Manavalakkurichy in the south and Chavara in the north. The health effects of these high background radiations are of great public concern. Contributed papers included in this volume spans a wide spectrum of environmental disciplines: epidemiology, ecology, monitoring, control, standards, regulations and so on. Specific to the special theme are studies carried out in high background radiation areas in Chavara, Kalpakkam, Chatrapur and Jaduguda. The proceedings volume also contains several invited papers among them a review paper on epidemiological and dosimetric studies carried out in various countries of the world bestowed with high natural background radiation areas. A careful study of the scientific material presented in this volume immediately reassures the reader that no abnormal health effects have been observed in populations living in the high natural background radiation areas.
