This study aims to investigate the different management policies of multi-reservoir systems and their impact on the demand supply and hydropower generation in Great Karun River basin. For this purpose, the semi-distributed simulation-optimization  model of the Great Karun River basin is developed. Also, the multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm is applied to optimize the develop...

Abstract Sedimentary successions exposed at basin margins as a result of late-stage inversion, uplift and erosion usually represent only limited portion the entire fill; thus, they are highly incomplete records evolution. Small satellite basins, however, might have potential recording more complete histories. The late Miocene sedimentary history Șimleu Basin, north-eastern vast Pannonian was in...

Groundwater arsenic is the main public health concern in Indo-Bangladesh Gangetic basin. Much work has been done on carcinogenic effect of arsenic. Compared to that other cellular effects, senescence human system was not studied. Replicative occurs by gradual shortening telomeres, and changes, characteristic somatic cells. Premature senescence, characterized increased beta-galactosidase activit...

The first documented interpretation of the regional-scale hydrostratigraphy and groundwater flow is presented for a ∼21,000-km area of the arsenic-affected districts of West Bengal [Murshidabad, Nadia, North 24 Parganas and South 24 Parganas (including Calcutta)], India. A hydrostratigraphic model demonstrates the presence of a continuous, semi-confined sand aquifer underlain by a thick clay aq...

Arsenic (As), a toxic trace element, is of great environmental concern due to its presence in soil, water, plant, animal and human continuum. Its high toxicity increased appearance the biosphere have triggered public concern. The present study measured As concentrations groundwater rice plant samples five selected blocks Maldah district, West Bengal, India. Soil, irrigation water were collected...

Abstract Analyses of sedimentology, ichnology and depositional environments Langhian–Tortonian siliciclastic deposits in the southern Tebessa Basin (eastern Algeria) have revealed a tidally dominated deltaic setting with high concentration vertical burrows. From south to north, two are here distinguished Basin: subaerial lower delta plain Oum Ali region trace fossils Ophiomorpha Skolithos linea...
