Sustainable Surface Water Management and Wastewater Treatment Plant Location: A Case Study of Urmia Lake
The conservation of lakes is an essential issue in sustainable development. Disruption of ecological balance, destruction of biodiversity and vegetation, desertification, and storm surges are the results of lakes drying. The purpose of this paper is to introduce an integrated bi-objective sustainable water resource management model. The first objective function deals with economically optimal a...
متن کاملPricing Irrigation Water in Mexico: Efficiency, Equity and Revenue Considerations
The withdrawal of water for i r r igat ion in the d ryer regions of Mexico already accounts for some 91% of potential availabil i ty. Fur ther expansion of i r r igated acreage, therefore, must re ly more on increased water use efficiency ra ther than increased supply from engineering works. A pr ime ins t rument to br ing about such an improvement could be an appropriate water pr ic ing s t ru...
متن کاملAn ecologically-sustainable surface water withdrawal framework for cropland irrigation: a case study in Alabama.
Agricultural production in the state of Alabama, USA, is mostly rain-fed, because of which it is vulnerable to drought during growing season. Since Alabama receives a significant portion of its annual precipitation during winter months, the goal of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of water withdrawal from streams during winter months for irrigation in the growing season. The Soil and ...
متن کاملEffects of salinity and irrigation water management on soil and tomato in drip irrigation
In this research, the effects of irrigation with saline and fresh water through drip irrigation method and using two irrigation management strategies: M1, M2 (M1 is irrigation with fresh water in alternative with saline water, M2 is saline water in first half time of each irrigation event and fresh water in the second half), on the yield, water productivity (WP), soil salinity, plant height...
متن کاملSpatial Hedonic Pricing Models for the Valuation of Irrigation Water
The main objective of this work is to apply the hedonic pricing method using the methodology of spatial econometrics in order to assess the economic value of irrigation water, as one of the individual attributes of the value of agricultural land parcels. Most of the agricultural land’s value attributes, like neighbor characteristics as well as the availability of irrigation water, exhibit a spa...
