Importance of Standard Scientific Units for the Measurement of Quantities and Properties in Environmental Science

   

P. Osman Basha, M. Sridhar Reddy

ABSTRACT

 

Environmental Impact Assessment reports, greenhouse gases national inventory reports, Forest Survey of India reports, and technical reports of several states and central pollution control boards comprise measurements of soil, water, and air pollutants being reported in concentrations and contents in various units. As a multidisciplinary science, researchers from varied fields wish to publish and read reports and publications and information of measured quantities in different units may confuse them. Hence, the objective of this paper is to help researchers and common people to understand about the widely used measurements and units in Environmental Science reports.
