The basin of Rio de la Sabana is the largest tributary of the Tres Palos coastal lagoon in Southwest Mexico, east of Acapulco. This lagoon and its upstream basin areas have become a high priority area for the preservation of coastal and marine environments. To obtain information about water ...
You will get clean water to your home in Mexico with no problem. In some places, water from the government could be potable, but it is not recommended to drink tap water in Mexico, especially for foreigners because you are never certain of the real quality of water if it is ...
Solving many of Mexico’s water issues will require energy for extracting, transporting, and treating water where it is needed most. Yet such energy use is not always possible since many people are not connected to an electricity grid or other decentralized energy infrastructure. In addition, a ...

(Aikins et al., 2010), whereas severe diarrhea treatment in Mexico cost US $936 (Granados-García et al., 2009). These costs are orders of magnitude higher in developed countries – in the US the costs average $391 per outpatient treatment and $2549 per inpatient treatment (Zimmerman et ...
Excess nutrient loadings have caused severe problems to the ecosystem, such as eutrophication and hypoxia in the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore, cropland changes (e.g., changes in the area of soybeans cropland) in the river basin contribute greatly to the downstream water quality dynamics (Demissie...

Mitsch [65] estimated that nitrate loading to the Gulf of Mexico could be reduced by 300,000 to 800,000 dry metric tons per year (1.4%–3.8%) by creating or restoring wetlands and riparian buffers of perennial grasses on 0.7–1.8% of the land in the Mississippi River Basin. Wetlands (...
Similarly, the study in the Guadalupe Dam Watershed, Mexico, also revealed that forest land in buffer zones had a positive impact on the protection of water quality [84]. Recent studies showed the importance of a buffer zone along the river, which could improve river water quality [84,90]....
