Valuing water quality improvements from peatland restoration_ Evidence and challenges
There is evidence that damaged peatlands can negatively affect the delivery of water related ecosystem services. There is interest in peatland restoration to meet different regulatory targets, including the Water Framework Directive (WFD). A comprehensive assessment of the economic benefits of restoration is missing. This paper synthesises hydrological and bio-geochemical knowledge on peatland ...
متن کاملValuing Transit Service Quality Improvements
This article investigates the value transit travelers place on qualitative factors, such as comfort and convenience, and practical ways to incorporate these factors into transport planning and project evaluation. Conventional evaluation practices generally assign the same time value regardless of travel conditions, and so undervalue comfort and convenience impacts. More comprehensive analysis o...
متن کاملA novel approach combining self-organizing map and parallel factor analysis for monitoring water quality of watersheds under non-point source pollution
High content of organic matter in the downstream of watersheds underscored the severity of non-point source (NPS) pollution. The major objectives of this study were to characterize and quantify dissolved organic matter (DOM) in watersheds affected by NPS pollution, and to apply self-organizing map (SOM) and parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) to assess fluorescence properties as proxy indicators...
متن کاملModeling of Non-Point Source Pollution by Long-Term Hydrologic Impact Assessment (L-THIA) (Case Study: Zayandehrood Watershed) in 2015
Background & Aims of the Study: In this research, Long-Term Hydrologic Impact Assessment model is selected for simulation of runoff and NPS pollution. The aim of this study is modeling of non-point source pollution by L-THIA model in Zayandehrood watershed in 2015. Materials & Methods: In this study, analytical survey and investigation of references in the context of libr...
متن کاملModeling Spatial Distributions of Point and Nonpoint Source Pollution Loadings in the Great Lakes Watersheds
A physically based, spatially-distributed water quality model is being developed to simulate spatial and temporal distributions of material transport in the Great Lakes Watersheds of the U.S. Multiple databases of meteorology, land use, topography, hydrography, soils, agricultural statistics, and water quality were used to estimate nonpoint source loading potential in the study watersheds. Anim...
