Remotely sensed estimates of water quality parameters would facilitate efforts in spatial and temporal monitoring. In this study we collected hyperspectral water reflectance data with airborne and ground-based sensing systems for multiple arms of Mark Twain Lake, a large manmade reservoir in northeast Missouri. Water samples were also collected and analyzed in the laboratory for chlorophyll, nu...

1 Ground water is an almost ubiquitous source of generally high-quality fresh water. These characteristics promote its widespread development, which can be scaled and localized to demand, obviating the need for substantial infrastructure1. Globally, ground water is the source of one third of all freshwater withdrawals, supplying an estimated 36%, 42% and 27% of the water used for domestic, agri...

Koot - Hamoodi are two units from seventh units out of 1&2 irrigation and drainage network in Dasht-Azadeghan project where was past about 7 years from their operation. Results of the studies were showed before construction of network; ground water table in considered of this area was high and more than 90% of these lands were high and too high in saline and alkaline. After construction and ope...

background: in the present times, arsenic poisoning contamination in the ground water has caused lots of health‑related problems in the village population residing in middle gangetic plain. in bihar, about 16 districts have been reported to be affected with arsenic poisoning. for the ground water and health assessment, simri village of buxar district was undertaken which is a flood plain region...

iran is among the world’s arid and semi-arid regions and its demand for water has been increased due topopulation growth, urbanization and the development the economic sectors (industrial and agricultural). inmany of these regions, the lack of planning and the unauthorized use of resources have led to excessiveexploitation and a lower level of groundwater. the usable groundwater for the country...

Background: Iran is located within the dry and semi dry regions, thus almost 90% of the required water is secured via the use of groundwater. Owing to the increasing pollution of water resources, this study was performed to evaluate water quality pollution indices for heavy metals (As, Zn, Pb and Cu) contamination monitoring in Toyserkan Plain during spring and summer in 2012. Methods: A tot...
