Abstract:

Water is most essential but scarce resource in developing countries. Presently the quality & the availability of the fresh water resources is the most pressing of the many environmental challenges on the national horizon. The stress on water resources is from multiple sources and the impacts can take diverse forms. Geometric increase in population coupled with rapid urbanization, industrialization and agricultural development has resulted in high impact on quality and quantity of water in developing countries. The situation warrants immediate redressal through radically improved water resource

Abstract:

Water is one of the essential elements for the nature and human being. The development of good practise of managing water resources are necessary to maintain sufficient availability and to support socio-economic activities and preserve natural ecosystems. For these reasons, it is fundamental to improve the knowledge of cause-effect relations that drives hydrological cycle, which determines water availability. Climate and land use (LU) are two of the main drivers of the water cycle and indeed, the knowledge of their influence on hydrology is a fundamental research question. Of course, the futu

Abstract:

Fresh water is considered to be one of the most important resources for humans and the environment. Due to the increase in population and the currently unsustainable usage of this limited resource, more attention is needed in the management of water resources. Advanced computational methods can help in attaining a better understanding of all aspects of water. Indeed, a better understanding of water resources requires a vast knowledge of a wide variety of fields such as atmospheric science, geology, hydrology, hydraulics and mathematics etc. To assist in this process computing techniques have b

Abstract:

Water supply development has changed significantly in the last fifty years. Expanding existing water supplies or locating and securing new water supplies has become increasingly difficult and highly constrained. In addition, awareness of and experience with the deleterious environmental impacts of water supply development has further constrained future development. Given this new paradigm, it is imperative that growing areas identify water supplies to accommodate new development before the development occurs.

Abstract:

Polymersomes are vesicles formed from block copolymers. Their large internal volumes and thick walls make them very attractive for the encapsulation of different species. However, a major issue which prevents the use of polymersomes in most of the applications is that the encapsulation efficiency of payload molecules using current encapsulation methods is too low. This problem is thought to be related to the formation mechanism of polymersomes through self-assembly of the constituent block copolymer molecules. This project is concern with employing a fundamentally different strategy for polyme

However, Industry does not make many efforts to reduce freshwater demand, mainly for the low profitability of water optimisation projects, but also for practical issues that the

Abstract:

The management of water resources around the world, and especially in countries with limited financial resources involves challenges that defy the sustainability and equitative use of the water. Governments have tended to respond through legislation to restrict uses and to redirect water management decisions to the Government itself. However, these fixed responses have proved not being effective due to the limited presence of central governments in the different watersheds. Consequences of this type of setting are a poor understanding of the hydrological issues, poor sustainability

Hydrology is a field fraught with uncertainty. Uncertainty comes from both our inability to perfectly know the true nature of constant system components of hydrologic systems (e.g. hydraulic conductivity, geologic structure, etc.) and our inability to perfectly predict the behavior of variable system components (e.g. future precipitation, future streamflow, etc.). Hydrologic literature has increasingly recognized that within the bounds of uncertainty, many acceptable hydrologic models exist and differ in their predictions.

Chapter one summarises the development of UK legislation for the protection of the aquatic environment, and highlights current EC legislative requirements for water quality. The need for on-line water quality monitoring and the alternative instrumental approaches to it are discussed, together with the philosophy of "easy care instrumentation" and water industry requirements for online analysers. A simple spectrophotometric FI system is proposed for the on-line determination of a range of water quality parameters. The following chapter details instrumentation used in the FI system, emphasising

Abstract:

The thesis presents the development, implementation and results of two series of experiments, at large and small scale, for the study of surface gravity waves. A number of measurement techniques are developed and implemented to capture space and time evolution of waves on a water surface in gravity, gravity-capillary and capillary ranges with the purpose to study the statistics of wave turbulence in terms of frequency and wave number spectra. The first series of experiments was conducted in a large wave tank of size 12 m x 6 m x 1.6 m filled with water to a depth of 0.9 m. A wave maker compris

Abstract:

From the Proceedings of the 1987 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Association, Hydrology Section - Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science and the Arizona Hydrological Society - April 18, 1987, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, Arizona<br>Some groundwater monitor wells produce water quality samples with anomalously high pH measurements. In some of these wells it is obvious that these water quality samples are affected by the bleed-water from the cement used to seal the annuli. To gain an understanding as to why cement bleed -water occurs and how it can be controlled,
