Atmospheric water harvesting in semi-arid regions by membranes: A techno-economic assessment

Kumar Varoon Agrawal, Marina Micari, Xuekui Duan

The availability of a reliable and sufficient amount of water constitutes one of the Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations. The provision of water is still challenging in many regions of the world, especially in arid and semi-arid regions ...

The Role of Hydraulic Failure in a Massive Mangrove Die-Off Event

Alice Jacqueline Frédérique Gauthey

Between late 2015 and early 2016, more than 7,000 ha of mangrove forest died along the coastline of the Gulf of Carpentaria, in northern Australia. This massive die-off was preceded by a strong 2015/2016 El Nino event, resulting in lower precipitation, a d ...

GRUN: an observation-based global gridded runoff dataset from 1902 to 2014

Gionata Ghiggi, Vincent Humphrey

Freshwater resources are of high societal relevance, and understanding their past variability is vital to water management in the context of ongoing climate change. This study introduces a global gridded monthly reconstruction of runoff covering the period ...

Global spatial analysis of toxic emissions to freshwater: operationalization for LCA

Anna Kounina Massé

PurposeThere is increasing interest in using fate and exposure models to spatially differentiate the impacts of chemical emissions. This work aims at exploring the operationalization in life cycle assessment (LCA) of spatially differentiated models for tox ...

Effects of deep pools on salinization in coastal reservoirs

David Andrew Barry, Jing Xu

Coastal reservoir contributes to alleviating the freshwater shortage in stressed areas, and the salinization of reservoir water is one of the most important challenges that coastal reservoir faced. Field-investigation indicates that there are many deep poo ...

Fast Potentiometric CO2 Sensor for High-Resolution in Situ Measurements in Fresh Water Systems

Nadezda Pankratova, Bernhard Wehrli

We present a new potentiometric sensor principle and a calibration protocol for in situ profiling of dissolved CO2 with high temporal and spatial resolution in fresh water lakes. The sensor system is based on the measurement of EMF between two solid-contac ...

Classification and prediction of river network ephemerality and its relevance for waterborne disease epidemiology

Andrea Rinaldo, Natalie Claire Ceperley, Theophile Mande, Francisco Javier Perez Saez

The transmission of waterborne diseases hinges on the interactions between hydrology and ecology of hosts, vectors and parasites, with the long-term absence of water constituting a strict lower bound. However, the link between spatio-temporal patterns of h ...

Submarine fresh groundwater discharge into Laizhou Bay comparable to the Yellow River flux

David Andrew Barry, Xu Wang, Xin Luo

Near- and off-shore fresh groundwater resources become increasingly important with the social and economic development in coastal areas. Although large scale (hundreds of km) submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) to the ocean has been shown to be of the sa ...

Groundwater flow and salt transport in a subterranean estuary driven by intensified wave conditions

David Andrew Barry, Clare Robinson

A numerical study, based on a density-dependent variably saturated groundwater flow model, was conducted to investigate flow and salt transport in a near-shore aquifer under intensified wave conditions caused by offshore storms. Temporally varying onshore ...

Model falsification diagnosis and sensor placement for leak detection in pressurized pipe networks

Ian Smith, Sylvain Coutu, James-Alexandre Goulet

Pressurized pipe networks used for fresh-water distribution can take advantage of recent advances in sensing technologies and data-interpretation to evaluate their performance. In this paper, a leak-detection and a sensor placement methodology are proposed ...
