Impact of Runoff Water Quality on Future Nursery Crop
changes in the 1980s. Droughts and water regulations required increased use of lowvolume irrigation, severe freezes promoted the use of fabric covers for cold protection, and governmental immigration reform necessitated re-evaluation of personnel resources. Production practices were required that used smaller quantities of fertilizer and pesticides. Additional restrictions limited the disposal ...
متن کاملCoastal water quality impact of stormwater runoff from an urban watershed in southern California.
Field studies were conducted to assess the coastal water quality impact of stormwater runoff from the Santa Ana River, which drains a large urban watershed located in southern California. Stormwater runoff from the river leads to very poor surf zone water quality, with fecal indicator bacteria concentrations exceeding California ocean bathing water standards by up to 500%. However, cross-shore ...
متن کاملRunoff Characteristics of Stormwater and Washoff Water Quality from Roof and Road Surfaces
Owing to overflows from combined sewer pipe systems, water quality of receiving waters, including urban rivers, has become worse year by year. Appropriate countermeasures that can mitigate the overflows, therefore, must be developed promptly. The authors have investigated a distributed simulation model of water quality and stormwater runoff in urban sewer pipe systems. First, a surface routing ...
متن کاملPerceived agricultural runoff impact on drinking water.
Agricultural runoff into surface water is a problem in Australia, as it is in arguably all agriculturally active countries. While farm practices and resource management measures are employed to reduce downstream effects, they are often either technically insufficient or practically unsustainable. Therefore, consumers may still be exposed to agrichemicals whenever they turn on the tap. For rural...
متن کاملEvaluating the effect of water harvesting methods on urban runoff (Case study: Birjand urban watershed)
New approaches to urban runoff management seek to reduce the volume and discharge of rainfall peaks as well as the amount of pollutants in urban areas to a level that is reminiscent of rainfall runoff in the decades before urban development. SWMM software is one of the best models to help in this field and it can be used to study the effects of using water harvesting methods on the volume of ru...
