LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Communicating effectively and consistently with students can help them feel at ease during their learning experience and provide the instructor with a communication trail to track the course's progress. This workshop will take you through constructing an engaging course container to facilitate effective communication.
4. Hazard Communication involves
the communication of hazards
about chemicals to employees,
also known as the “Right To
Know”.
HazCom program that each
affected employee should be
familiarized with.
It is the responsibility of the
employer, as well as your own to
handle chemicals safely,
understand chemical labels, and
understand the MSDS.
5. As part of the “Right To Know” program, the following
will be looked at:
5 Elements of Your RTK Program

6. All supervisors are familiar with policies and rules and provide for the
health and safety of those supervised. They are in a key position in the
organizational structure to carry out the department's safety policies and
to prevent injuries to their employees.
Ensure that required safety equipment, devices and personal protective
equipment and apparel are provided and maintained, and are properly
used by individuals working in their operations.
Provide employees and students with instruction and assistance in the
proper operation of equipment or materials involved in any operation
which may be potentially hazardous. Provide for health and safety
training.
Take prompt corrective action when unsafe conditions, practices or
equipment are reported or observed. Encourage reporting of concerns.
Promptly conduct a thorough investigation in all work-related injuries,
illnesses and accidents, submit appropriate recommendations on all
accident reports, including the Employer's Reports of Occupational Injury
or Illness (page 4.19) or the Incident Report (page 8.05), as appropriate,
and follow through to ensure corrective measures have been implemented.
Coordinate or conduct inspections to maintain safe and healthful
conditions, and address any deficiencies that are identified.

7. Comply with applicable environmental health and safety policies, standards, rules, regulations and
procedures. These include safety-related signs, posters, warnings and written/oral directions when
performing tasks.
Do not perform any function or operation which is considered hazardous, or is known to be
hazardous without proper instructions and authorization.
Only use equipment and materials approved or provided by the supervisor or instructor and for
which instruction has been provided by this or other experience.
Become thoroughly knowledgeable about potential hazards associated with the work area; knowing
where information on these hazards is maintained and how to use this information when needed.
Wear or use prescribed protective equipment.
Report all unsafe conditions, practices, or equipment to the supervisor, instructor or safety officer
whenever deficiencies are observed.
Inform the supervisor or instructor immediately of all work-related injuries or accidents and obtain
prompt medical attention when necessary.
Provide information necessary for the supervisor or safety officer to adequately and thoroughly
complete the Employer's Report of Occupational Injury and Illness and any other associated
accident/illness reports
9. The Three Forms of Chemicals
All chemicals exists in one of three
forms:
Solid
Liquid
Gas
10. Hazardous Chemicals - Dusts
Some chemicals are solids in
the form of powders or dust.
Dust can be released into the
air by cutting, drilling, grinding
or sanding.
Dust can also be stirred up by
dry sweeping and inhaled.
11. Hazardous Chemicals - Dust
Dust in the air can settle out
on work surfaces, cups,
plates, utensils, and food.
The settled dust can be
swallowed with food or
drinks.
If the dust is hazardous, it
can cause health problems.
12. Solids – Fumes and Fibers
Fumes are extremely small
droplets of metal formed when
the metal has been vaporized by
high temperatures (usually
welding)
Some solids are fibers which can
be similar to dusts but they have
an elongated shape (like
asbestos or fiberglass)
13. Hazardous Chemicals - Liquids
Liquid chemicals in direct
contact with the skin can
cause skin problems.
Some liquids can be absorbed
into the body through the skin.
Liquids can be sprayed and
form mists or evaporate and
form vapors which can be
inhaled.
14. Liquids (Mists)
Mists can also be inhaled.
Mists can settle on the skin and
be absorbed into the body.
Airborne mists can also settle
out and contaminate food or
drink.
15. Gases and Vapors
Gases are chemicals that are in the
gas phase at room temperature.
Vapors evaporate from substances
that are liquids or solids at room
temperature.
Gases and vapors enter the body by
inhalation.
16. Flammable - catches fire easily and burns rapidly
Combustible - will burn under most conditions
Explosive - will explode / detonate releasing hot gases
Oxidizer - yields oxygen to enhance combustion, may cause
ignition of combustibles with no external source
Organic peroxide - uniquely hazardous, potentially explosive
Unstable - tends to decompose during normal handling and
storage
Water reactive - reacts with water to release flammable gas,
causes fire or presents a health hazard
17. Carcinogen - cause cancer or suspected to cause cancer
Toxic Agent - poisonous / cause acute or chronic effects
Reproductive toxin (teratogen) - could have harmful
effect on male or female reproductive system or on
developing fetus
Irritant - can cause inflammation of skin or eyes
Corrosive - cause irreversible damage to living tissue
Sensitizer - cause exposed person to develop allergies to
the substance
Target organ-specific agents - hazardous to specific
organs in body (e.g., lungs, liver, blood, kidneys, nervous
system)
18. Inhalation / breathing - most common route, gases /
vapors can pass to blood, solid particles inhaled into lungs
Absorption through the skin - many solids, liquids, vapors
and gases can be absorbed through the skin
Ingestion / swallowing - while not intentional, failure to
wash hands, eating in contaminated lab, etc.
Injection - accidents handling glass, sharps, etc.
Eye Contact - either physical damage or absorption
The route of entry dictates selection of
protective equipment
19. Chemicals which produce liver damage
Signs and Symptoms: Jaundice, liver enlargement
Chemicals: Carbon Tetrachloride, nitrosamines
20. Chemicals which produce
kidney damage
Signs and Symptoms: Edema

chest, loss of breath
Chemicals: Asbestos, silica
24. Chemicals which damage
reproductive capabilities
Includes chromosomal damage
(mutations) and damage to
fetuses (teratogenesis)
Signs and Symptoms: Birth
defects, sterility
Chemicals: Lead
25. Chemicals which effect
the dermal layer of the
body
Signs and Symptoms:
Defatting of the skin,
rashes, irritation
Chemicals: Ketones,
chlorinated compounds
26. Chemicals which affect the eye or visual capacity
Signs and symptoms: Conjunctivitis, corneal
damage, blurred vision, burning or irritation
Chemicals: Solvents, corrosives
27. Dose - Amount of chemical absorbed depends upon
chemical strength / concentration, exposure duration,
frequency of exposure
◦ In general, the greater the dose, the more severe the
health effects
Acute effects - occurs rapidly following brief exposure
(e.g., acid burn)
Chronic effect - develops/recurs slowly, over long
period following repeated, long-term, low-level
exposure (e.g., Benzedrine linked to bladder cancer)
Individual variability - not all people exhibit the same
signs and symptoms (especially to chronic effects)
28. SKIN INHALATION INGESTION

refrigerator for cold
flammables
No more than 10 L
outside of cabinet
No more than 60 L in
the entire lab
44. Small spill
◦ Alert coworkers
◦ Contain the spill
◦ Prevent vapor emission
◦ Remove ignition sources
◦ Use non-flammable
adsorbent material
Large spill
◦ Alert coworkers

◦ Evacuate room
◦ Call for assistance
45. Risk
◦ Toxic chemicals react with tissue to produce
serious or deadly effects
Prevention Techniques
◦ Reduce amounts of toxic chemicals in laboratory
◦ Hand chemicals in fume hood
◦ Wear appropriate protection
◦ Properly handle spills
46. All chemicals are toxic, dose is important
“All things are poison, and nothing is without
poison, only the dose permits something not
to be poisonous”
◦ Paracelsus
47. Time horizons
◦ Acute toxins produce reactions immediately (within
14 days) on contact with tissue
◦ Chronic toxins have delayed response often
manifested in months or years
Effect depends on exposure
Genetics
48. Dose has three components
◦ Relative toxicity
◦ Concentration
◦ Exposure time
49. Usually animal studies
with different routes
of exposure
Often measured in
concentration needed
to kill 50% of
population on a per
mass basis
◦ LD50, LC50
51. Follow prudent practices for prevention of
chemical contact
◦ Wear appropriate gloves, eye protection and
clothing
◦ Use fume hood or glove box to reduce
concentration and as a secondary barrier
◦ Decontaminate before doing non-laboratory
activities
◦ Minimize exposure time to chemical
◦ Store according to chemical nature
52. For highly toxic chemicals do not attempt to
clean up any volume
◦ Notify coworkers
◦ Evacuate room and close doors
◦ Call 911 or 999
Give information on location, amount, chemical nature
◦ Wait for emergency responders
55. React with skin to cause burns and
permanent tissue damage
◦ Acids (not H2SO4) react to form protein barrier
◦ Bases do not form protein barrier and can penetrate
deep into the tissue
Corrosives can cause irreversible damage to
eyes
56. PVC and nitrile
gloves often provide
appropriate
protection
Use splash goggles
Use face shield if
splashing is possible
57. Corrosive + Flammable = Fire
Nitric Acid + Organic
Solvent
Corrosive + Toxin = Toxic gas
Corrosive + Metal = Hydrogen gas
Corrosive + Water = Violent
58. Have appropriate
spill clean up for
corrosives in
laboratory
Sodium
bicarbonate is
effective at
neutralizing acids
and bases
59. Wear correct safety attire
Notify coworkers of spill
Contain spill to prevent spreading
Use suitable neutralizers to balance pH
Clean up the spill and properly dispose of
contaminated materials
60. Acids and bases can be
stored in same cabinet
if secondary storage like
plastic bins are used
61.
62. Risk
◦ Compressed gasses can act as missiles
◦ Compressed gasses can be flammable, toxic, or
other wise hazardous
◦ Compressed gasses can displace air
Prevention Techniques
