Controlling the microbiological quality of water is important for its uses. Microbiological requirements of drinking water ensure the absence of coliforms, but may indicate the potential presence of other potentially pathogenic microorganisms and viruses of fecal origin. A total of 36 water samples, representing the drinking water of the whole city of Aradan, Semnan, Iran, were randomly collect...

Measuring sensitivity of hydraulic structures is considered as an approach for evaluation of water projects performance, due to lower distribution efficiency in Irrigation and Drainage project schemes. Sensitivity analysis approach for irrigation structures is one of flow analysis methods which are developed in recent years in order to measure the behavior of flow in hydraulic structures in an ...

one of the consequences of poor management and operation of irrigation systems, poor water delivery and distribution channels and divisions and consequently improper distribution of water level downstream. the study of simulation and performance evaluation software using hydrodynamic sobek varamin irrigation is done. in order to evaluate the network performance and compare the results of simula...

abstract background and purpose: eutrophication is one of the major environmental problems in waterways causing substantial adverse impact on domestic, livestock and recreational use of water resources. aras dam, iran which provides arasful city with drinking water, has chronic algal blooms since 1990. levels of up to 900,000 cells/ml of toxic cyanobacteria (mainly anabaena and microcystis) hav...

abstract prediction of input flow into water resources is regarded as one of the most important issues in optimum planning and management in producing electro-water energy and optimum allocation of water into different consumption sources. different parameters affect on input discharge into dams. climate variables including temperature and rainfall have the most effect on input runoff rate to w...

water resources local governance can is one of the most influential collaborative approach in the water resources management. social monitoring of local stakeholders plays an important role in planning, resources management and water efficient governance. therefore to achieve this goal, social network analysis has been considered as an approach of analysis of the relationship among local stakeh...

Rivers are important as the main source of supply for drinking, agriculture and industry.However, drinking water quality in terms of qualitative parameters, is the most important variable. Studias and predicting  changes in quality parameters along a river, are one of the goals of water resources planners and managers. In this regard, many water quality models in order to maintain better water ...
