Deep forecasting architectures mirror ecological time scales in water quality prediction.

Assessment of Anthropogenic Impacts on Water Quality and Microbial Communities in the Heilongjiang Maolan Gou National Nature Reserve.

Spatial assessment of Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) infrastructure, groundwater quality, and their association with childhood diarrhoeal risk in India.

Analysis of groundwater and surface water quality using modelled water index and multivariate statistics in Kampala and Mbarara Districts, Uganda

Abstract The demand for domestic, public and industrial use of water increases with population growth. However, activities from humans and natural environment have resulted into decline in water quality. The aim of this study was to evaluat...

Nanotechnology and the environment: A European perspective

The potential positive and negative effects of nanotechnology on the environment are discussed. Advances in nanotechnology may be able to provide more sensitive detection systems for air and water quality monitoring, allowing the simultaneo...

High Sensitivity Microfiber Interferometer Sensor in Aqueous Solution

The need for environmental protection and water pollution control has led to the development of different sensors for determining many kinds of pollutants in water. Ammonia nitrogen presence is an important indicator of water quality in env...

Validation of Sentinel-2 (MSI) and Sentinel-3 (OLCI) Water Quality Products in Turbid Estuaries Using Fixed Monitoring Stations

It is common in estuarine waters to place fixed monitoring stations, with the advantages of easy maintenance and continuous measurements. These two features make fixed monitoring stations indispensable for understanding the optical complexi...

<i>Escherichia coli</i> Optoelectronic Sensors for In Situ Monitoring of Selected Materials Across Water Supply Systems

Chemical monitoring of pollutants and hazardous materials in water supply systems traditionally depends on centralized laboratories, advanced instrumentation, and trained personnel, limiting accessibility and preventing real-time, on-site a...

WATER QUALITY INDEX AS AN TOOL FOR RIVER ASSESSMENT IN AGRICULTURAL AREAS IN THE PAMPEAN PLAINS OF ARGENTINA

The contributions of nutrients and xenobiotics by anthropogenic activities developed in riverside deteriorate water quality. In this context, the impact of different agroindustry effluents on the water quality of Salado River in Buenos Aire...

Stormwater characterisation and modelling for Sungai Air Hitam in Selangor, Malaysia using model for urban stormwater improvement conceptualisation (music)

The aim of this study is to evaluate the current water quality status of one of the urban rivers in Malaysia, called Sungai Air Hitam. The river's water supply is not only unsuitable for the inhabitants but also hazardous to the aquatic spe...

Seasonal variation of pesticides and associated risks in Guangdong's drinking water sources

Pesticides are essential for crop protection and agricultural yield enhancement. However, their entry into water bodies, particularly drinking water sources, poses threats to human health and aquatic ecosystems. The seasonal variation, and ...

Hydrogeochemical Characterization and Appraisal of Groundwater Quality in Yisr River Catchment, Blue Nile River Basin, Ethiopia, by Using the GIS, WQI, and Statistical Techniques

Groundwater is a primary drinking, agricultural, domestic, and nondomestic water source in Ethiopia’s Yisr River watershed of the Blue Nile River basin. There has been no systematic investigation of the hydrogeochemical properties of ground...

Critical review of leachate pathways, groundwater contamination, and health risks in tropical urban aquifers

Abstract Rapid, under-serviced urbanization across the tropical belt has left many cities dependent on open dumps. These dumps and poorly engineered landfills often sit above shallow, heavily used aquifers. This review uses the Doddabidarak...

Investigations of the impact of polluted natural waters on cardiovascular diseases and development of integrated prevention system

The aim of this study was to establish the correlation between natural water pollutions and the prevalence of heart diseases. We analyzed the data from the 2014 Federal Service Report on the state of sanitary and epidemiological welfare of ...

High Dose MicroCT Does Not Contribute Toward Improved MicroPET/CT Image Quantitative Accuracy and Can Limit Longitudinal Scanning of Small Animals

Obtaining accurate quantitative measurements in preclinical Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) imaging is of paramount importance in biomedical research and helps supporting efficient translation of preclinical result...

Analysis of Multi Temporal Satellite Imagery for Total Suspended Sediments in a Wave-Active Coastal Area-Gaza Strip Coastal Water, Palestine

Sediment load materials is one of the key factors that determine the surface water quality, both of oceanic and river water, and it specifies water optical properties. Thus it provides a background for a plenty of applications and project...
