Over the past five years, research and development of commercial wearable sensors have grown exponentially. Wearable sensor technology will allow future operational forces to identify and increase early warnings of chemical and biological (CB) threat exposures well before the onset of mission disruptive symptoms, providing for faster recovery, better incident management, and restored mission capabilities after agent exposures or attacks. Currently, army forces at all levels cannot monitor CB...

Utilisation of resources is closely linked to population growth and economic and technological development. Hence, it is expected that global resource demand will increase substantially over the next decades. This resource challenge is currently partly addressed by the UNEP-IRP resource scenario activity, where metals, non-metallic minerals, and biomass resource availability and consumption scenarios are being developed. Advancements in the understanding of environmental impacts induced by...

Hill Air Force Base (AFB) proposes to construct security facilities to protect Little Mountain Test Annex (LMTA) from unauthorized access and enable guards to intercept contraband (weapons, explosives, drugs, classified materials, etc.) while maximizing vehicular traffic flow. The findings of this EA indicate that the proposed action would not have significant adverse effects on the human environment or any of the environmental resources as described in the EA. Therefore, it is concluded that a...

Long-term use of high explosives (HE) on DoD training ranges and other defense installations has in some cases resulted in contamination of soil and groundwater with residues of HE and explosive-related compounds (ERCs). The vast majority of the millions of acres of DoD lands are likely free of contamination, or are contaminated at levels that cause little concern. Nevertheless, virtually all lands on all defense sites have become subject to more rigorous environmental monitoring and...
