drought stress is one of the most important problems of agriculture and an important factor of plant product reduction. application of absorbent materials can help usage of sporadic rain fall and cause more maintenance of water storage. in order to study the effect of super absorbent polymer, potassium sulfate and manure under drought condition and favorable irrigation on some traits of foxtail...

Water and nitrogen are two of the most important factors for plant growth and development. However, little is known about effects of N on water translocation between connected bamboo ramets. We performed experiment connected Indocalamus decorus ramets in adjacent pots with different soil water contents and three N levels. We determined antioxidase activities, concentration of osmotic adjustment...

[1] The leakage of water from three Agulhas rings has been studied in a high resolution global ocean model using a Lagrangian particle following technique. A bowl shaped ring boundary that reaches a radius of 140 km and a depth of 800 m separates regions of fast and slow leakage. The dilution of Agulhas ring water generally increases with depth, but a shallow secondary circulation enhances leak...

In addition to efforts aimed at reducing anthropogenic production of greenhouse gases, geological storage of CO2 is being explored as a strategy to reduce atmospheric greenhouse gas emission and mitigate climate change. Previous studies of the deep subsurface in North America have not fully considered the potential negative effects of CO2 leakage into shallow drinking water aquifers, especially...

Despite the growing concern of water companies throughout the world to have available water resources, which is strongly related to leakage control is not always properly considered within water management companies. Nowadays, the continuous monitoring of water distribution systems is a prerequisite towards the rapid and efficient detection of any abnormal situation. Within European Union prior...

background the non-revenue water refers to a difference between the volume of water entering the system and billed authorized consumption. objectives the main purpose of this study is to determine the volume of non-revenue water in order to recognize the factors influencing water losses so that the information gathered can used in non-revenue water reduction management. materials and methods ka...
