Sustainable urban water supply in south India: Desalination, efficiency improvement, or rainwater harvesting?
[1] Indian megacities face severe water supply problems owing to factors ranging from growing population to high municipal pipe leakage rates; no Indian city provides 24/7 water supply. Current approaches to addressing the problem have been “utility centric,” overlooking the significance of decentralized activities by consumers, groundwater extraction via private wells, and aquifer recharge by ...
متن کاملMandatory urban rainwater harvesting: learning from experience.
Rainwater harvesting is effectively mandated in several urban areas of New Zealand. To understand the costs and benefits of rainwater harvesting from an end-user perspective, semistructured interviews were conducted with 14 homeowners in northern Auckland affected by these regulations. Residents report differences in four aspects of urban rainwater infrastructure - security of supply, water qua...
متن کاملSimulating the hydrologic cycle in coal mining subsidence areas with a distributed hydrologic model
Large-scale ground subsidence caused by coal mining and subsequent water-filling leads to serious environmental problems and economic losses, especially in plains with a high phreatic water level. Clarifying the hydrologic cycle in subsidence areas has important practical value for environmental remediation, and provides a scientific basis for water resource development and utilisation of the s...
متن کاملSeasonal Cycle and Interannual Variability in the Amazon Hydrologic Cycle
An analysis of the Amazon basin hydrologic cycle has been carried out using the NASA/GEOS1 atmospheric reanalysis, observed rainfall of Xie and Arkin, and historical Amazon river discharge. Over a seasonal cycle, the precipitation is found to vary by 5 mm day 1, the runo by 2 mm day 1 while the evaporation largely remains constant. On interannual time scales, the hydrologic variability both in ...
متن کاملHydrologic processes at the urban residential scale
In the face of increasing urbanization, there is growing interest in application of microscale hydrologic solutions to minimize storm runoff and conserve water at the source. In this study, a physically based numerical model was developed to understand hydrologic processes better at the urban residential scale and the interaction of these processes among different best management practices (BMP...
