Abstract

The necessity to monitor the environment is increasing everyday due to various issues related to environmental pollution. Pollution comes in various forms including gaseous, water, and even temperature pollution. Temperature pollution in the form of heat released from a nuclear plant’s exchanger, for example, makes an environment inhabitable for plankton and invariably affects the wild life that depend on the plankton to survive. This leads to a crash in the food chain that could lead to extinction of marine wild life populations.
