Maintaining the water balance in Beijing is crucial both economically and politically. However, few have directly addressed the problem systematically recently. Therefore, the system dynamics (SD) approach is applied for modeling of the water supply-and-demand system. The objective is to investigate ...
future with respect to variations in the food and water demand drivers (see Annex 1 for more details). This analysis has the benefit of using the latest data on demography, by using the 2001 census (GOI 2003); on food consumption patterns from the latest consumption and ...
Liu et al. [22] established a water energy model by coupling the WEAP and Low Emissions Analysis Platform (LEAP) models and discussed the energy-saving and water-saving effects of different policies in Beijing. The balance of water supply and demand is inseparable from the local social and ...
However, the rapid resources urbanization in recent years has produced a series of water problems such as deterioration of river water quality, water shortage and exacerbated floods, which have constrained urban economic development. By applying the principle of triple supply-demand equilibrium, this ...
Epistemic demand analysis for fresh water supply of Chinese restaurantsdoi:10.1177/0143624408090203In order to design a cost-effective and eco-efficient fresh water supply system for Chinese restaurants, a better understanding of the simultaneous water demands in these restaurants is essential. Taking the...
Using system analysis theory and methods, a dynamic model of a water resource supply and demand system was built to simulate trends in the supply and deman... Y Xiong,J Li,D Jiang - 《地理学报(英文版)》 被引量: 5发表: 2015年 Integrated multi-objective optimization framework for urban wat...
This procedure is afrequency analysisof a recurring natural event. The frequencies chosen for investigation were once in 10 years and once in 5 years, or a “10-year drought” and a “5-year drought,” but droughts occurring 3 years in a row and then not again for 30 years still consti...
To avoid devastating Day Zero events, strict demand management is required, together with governance reforms, investment strategies for infrastructure, and supply augmentation. Hypothetical analysis shows that demand reduction measures are more effective than reducing water losses in closing deficits. Both ...
Digital water.Digital has become one of the most important issues in the water industry, with the potential to completely alter market dynamics. We support clients in understanding the strategic imperatives of the municipal water market and developing a comprehensive analysis of the competitive landsc...
In the light of the natural resources of 62.42×108 m3 s ur face water and 4.94×108 m3 groundwater and the contradiction of consuming 70.44×108 m3 water resource in the Hexi corridor of Gansu Province, the effects of water on Hexi corridor were analyzed. Only by relying on decreasing wa...
