Based on observations from the five site visits, it is apparent that the SWROA concept is valid, and that the associated emphasis on storm water management has resulted in improved surface mine drainage design and timely construction. There is emphasis on more creative and safer water detention ...

The key problem in the reasonable management of water is identifying the effective radius of surface water pollution. Remote sensing and three-dimensional fluorescence technologies were used to evaluate the effects of land use/cover on surface water poll
Scientists and practitioners agree that integrated water resource management is necessary, with an increasing need for research at the regional scale (103
These, if in sufficient quantity and with sufficient activity, may dominate not only the soil strength but also its thermal sensitivity owing to their large temperature-dependent volume and strength changes19, partly related to their larger water content. The presence of minerals of the smectite ...
Semiarid regions are often affected by water scarcity and poor water quality. Seasonal changes in precipitation and drought events increase the pressure of use on water bodies and their pollution. In Central Northern Namibia, a high seasonal intra- and inter-annual variability of precipitation caused...
Similarly, a very interesting problem also solved with the assistance of the Bayesian approach was the design and optimal setting of a system of monitoring sensors in an urban drainage system for non-conservative contaminants [23]. Here, the adopted method is the Bayesian model of decision-making...
But the most important ecosystem service of Ukrainian reservoirs (especially the Dnipro Cascade) is water storage and regulation for many and various needs: water supply and drainage, hydropower, navigation, irrigation, recreation, self-purification, cooling water for thermal and nuclear power stations,...
drainage, 10% of all precipitation was routed directly to runoff, and the remaining 90% of precipitation then used as input for both API and SME runoff calculations. This treatment is equivalent to routing 10% of precipitation directly into surface water via storm sewers and drainage systems. ...
To analyze transient free-surface-pressurized flows with entrapped air in a drainage system, a virtual slot model with ceiling has been introduced. Using this model, calculations for the reduced model and the actual size model are carried out to examine a scale effect on the transient flow. The...
