Title Developments in hydrometric technology : new and emerging instruments for mapping river hydrodynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
New demands on surface-water resources from an increasing world population and rising global living s tandards are requiring water managers to improve river flow measurements. Water managers are requiring flow instrumentation to measure those resources more accurately, in more detail and at lesser cost. Fortunately, new and emerging developments in flow instrumentation are significantly improving our capabilities to measure surfacewater discharge and flow dynamics of rivers.

متن کاملChallenges and developments of bioretention facilities in treating urban stormwater runoff; A review
Bioretention or rain garden is a preferable low impact development (LID) approach due to its characteristics which reflect natural water cycle processes. However, this system is still little understood and quite complicated in terms of design and implementation due to many technical considerations. Hence, this paper gives a review of the challenges and developments for the use of bioretention f...
