Historically, wetlands along the St. Johns River, Florida, were dominated by herbaceous marshes. However, in the last 50 years many areas transformed to shrub-dominated wetlands, at the same time a system of levees and canals was constructed to control flooding. We tested the role of water management in controlling Carolina willow (Salix caroliniana), a native shrub that accounts for most of th...

Abstract Chemical enhanced oil recovery applications continue to face a variety of obstacles, particularly in high saline and high-temperature reservoirs, addition chemical prices. This issue creates difficulty developing optimal recipes that can withstand these extreme circumstances so achieve maximal hydrocarbon at the lowest feasible cost. The usefulness surfactant polymer (SP) mobilizing in...

Erosional and sedimentary features associated with flooding have been documented in both modern and past cases. However, only a few studies have demonstrated the relationship between these features and the corresponding hydraulic conditions that produced them, making it difficult to evaluate the magnitude of paleo-flooding. This study describes the characteristics associated with inundation dep...

in order to improve irrigation water productivity (wp) at rice production, a field experiment was conducted at shahid fozveh research station (esfahan region) during 2001-2003. experiment was arranged in a split plot design (rcbd) with three replications. the treatments were: three levels of irrigation managements including i1: permanent flooding under 3.5cm water during growth period, i2:perma...

The effects of flooding harvested rice fields on waterbird communities were studied during winter. Variation in the number of waterbird species, overall densities of all waterbirds, wading birds, waterfowl, and shorebirds, and a measure of conservation value that weighted species according to their relative abundance and population trends were examined. Each variable was tested for differences ...

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) in south Florida is often subjected to flooding due to intense summer rainfall or tropical storms. While there has been considerable research on the response of sugarcane cultivars to high water tables, there is a lack of information on cultivar morphological adaptation to long-term flooding. An experiment was established in Belle Glade, FL to examine: (i) effects of ...

INTRODUCTION Dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) are organic contaminants in ground water characterized by low solubility and density greater than water [1]. DNAPL-contaminated aquifers frequently are treated using the remediation technique known as pump-and-treat [2]. The process can reduce the mass of DNAPL contamination to residual saturations by injecting water though injection wells a...

Applications of Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) are highly required and needed in Sudan to keep oil supply at stable levels. ”FUL” Oilfield has shallow reservoir affected by big boundary bottom water drive with high crude viscosity. This research, through a comprehensive analysis the current producing wells, perforation intervals, CO2 temperature analysis, steam parameters optimization which using ...

BACKGROUND Floods are a disaster situation for all affected populations and especially for vulnerable groups within communities such as children, orphans, women, and people with chronic diseases such as HIV and AIDS. They need functioning health care, sanitation and hygiene, safe water, and healthy food supply, and are critically dependent on their social care and support networks. A study carr...
