The location of a well related to surface drainage ways is important in determining the potential for groundwater contamination from surface water flow. Locating a well in a safe place needs careful consideration and planning.To determine the effects of well depth on water quality, the wells up to 4 m. depth and 100 m. far from river were selected in Isfahan. Geologically, the earth in this zon...

according to the irrigation systems design standards, allowed pressure variation in lateral pipes is 20 percent. reasons for this rate selection, which since the 60's is performed, are not known. the increased changes in allowed pressure tubes to lateral pipes design, the increased sprinkling system required pressure and the increased nonuniform sprinkler distribution, so energy supply cos...

Microbial water quality monitoring is crucial for managing water resources and protecting public health. However, institutional testing activities in sub-Saharan Africa are currently limited. Because the economics of water quality testing are poorly understood, the extent to which cost may be a barrier to monitoring in different settings is unclear. This study used cost data from 18 African mon...
