Satisfying Growing Water Demand Through Integrated Groundwater and Watershed Management

Improving Southwestern Riparian Areas Through Watershed Management

This paper reviews opportunities and watershed restoration tech­ niques available for rehabilitating and enhancing riparian ecosystems in southwest environments. As such, it is intended to serve as a state­ of-the-art report on riparian hydrology and improvement in both naturally occurring and man-made riparian areas throughout the

Multicriterionforest watershed resources management

An Arizona case study consisting of 6 alternative schemes is evaluated with respect to 15 noncommensurable, discrete criteria, using two types of (MCDM) techniques, namely the outranking types of ELECTRE I and II, and the distance-based type of compromise programming (CP). The result is a complete preference ordering of the nondominated alternatives in the cases of ELECTRE II and CP and a parti...

Synthetic- and bio-polymer use for runoff water quality management in irrigated agriculture.

Low concentrations of synthetic- or bio-polymers in irrigation water can nearly eliminate sediment, N, ortho- and total-P, DOM, pesticides, micro-organisms, and weed seed from runoff. These environmentally safe polymers are employed in various sensitive uses including food processing, animal feeds, and potable water purification. The most common synthetic polymer is anionic, high purity polyacr...
