Efficacy and health benefits of different water distribution systems in informal settlements: a cross-sectional study in Nairobi, Kenya

Jérôme Chenal, Vitor Pessoa Colombo, Jürg Utzinger

Access to safe water sources, whenever needed, is a human right. However, attending to this fundamental right remains challenging in informal settlements. Consequently, these settlements are more exposed to risk factors of several diseases related to the l ...

Past and future impacts of climate change on swiss river temperature and discharge investigated with data analysis and numerical modelling

Adrien Michel

This thesis presents the first large-scale assessment of past, present and future impacts of climate change on river temperatures in Switzerland. Water temperature is a crucial factor influencing, among others, the health of aquatic ecosystems, the industr ...

More green and less blue water in the Alps during warmer summers

Gabriele Manoli, Peter Molnar, Paolo Burlando

Climate change can reduce surface-water supply by enhancing evapotranspiration in forested mountains, especially during heatwaves. We investigate this ‘drought paradox’ for the European Alps using a 1,212-station database and hyper-resolution ecohydrologic ...

Stepwells: Reviving India’s Cultural and Traditional Water Storage Systems

Water has been foreseen to be the cause of the next great global crisis. India has 18% of the world population but only 4% of the world’s water resources. This brings us to the important issue that India may lack overall long-term availability of replenish ...

Power Law Growth and Delayed Feedbacks in Socio‐Hydrological Systems

Gabriele Manoli

Water infrastructure dynamics result from coupled social and physical hydrological processes embedded in “socio-hydrological systems” (SHSs). Freshwater fuels socioeconomic activity, which in turn exerts pressure on water resources through increased water ...

Human domination of the global water cycle absent from depictions and perceptions

Camille Roland Marie Minaudo

Human water use, climate change and land conversion have created a water crisis for billions of individuals and many ecosystems worldwide. Global water stocks and fluxes are estimated empirically and with computer models, but this information is conveyed t ...
