Putting on a pair of high heeled shoes only asks for fluid retention in your legs to increase causing your feet to swell. It may be time to change what you are at work, in-transit, or on the town if you hope to stand a chance again pedal edema. What have you got to lose? For ...
Water retention can also be caused other serious conditions: Deep vein thrombosis:If you have swelling in just one foot or leg, it’s possible you have ablood clot. Other signs include pain, warmth, and redness. A clot can form while you’re healing from surgery or during a long flight...
Moreover, many traditional and innovative water harvesting structures, such as sand dams, subsurface dams and ponds, help increase soil moisture retention, with positive effects on local vegetation and shallow aquifers78. Supporting the construction of distributed and temporary water harvesting points can...
The concepts proposed in this study not only bring forth economic, environmental and technical advantages but also hold the potential to captivate the public’s attention through their alignment with concepts associated with sustainability and the circular economy. While our primary focus has been on d...

Several tertiary treatments have been investigated for pesticide removal in a water medium; among them, the adsorption processes are highlighted. Pesticide removal by adsorption has been widely investigated due to its high efficiency and high retention capacity (Ali et al., 2012). The percentage remo...
A ‘run-of-the-river’ type of reservoir will have a relatively small retention time, in the order of days or weeks, while a ‘large’ reservoir, with capacity for flow regulation, will have a long residence time with values of the order of years or even decades. Also relevant in the...
water retention, which may be detrimental to the long-term productivity of the soil68. Second, the dosing of phosphorus fertilizers further meets the nutrient requirements for crop growth, leading to a rapid increase in plant leaf area, which in turn leads to a further increase in the rate of...
During this export, biogeochemical processes associated with retention and losses of nutrients are accounted for. Integrating MARINA-Nutrients with a cost-optimization procedure enabled to identify cost-effective options to reduce coastal eutrophication. However, this integrated approach has not been applied...
This slowing and retention of the water decreases downstream flooding, as more rainfall is detained/retained rather than zooming downstream. A good bit of this retained water would over time augment downstream baseflow, so improving the riparian ecology. The dams also retain sediment and so improve...
