Public awareness of water- and drought-related issues is an important yet relatively unexplored component of water use behavior. To examine this relationship, we first quantified news media coverage of drought in California from 2005 to 2015, a period with two distinct droughts; the later drought received unprecedentedly high media coverage, whereas the earlier drought did not, as the United St...
Development of one or more large-scale seawater desalination plants in the State of Texas will provide a sustainable source of drinking water and represents a key component of alternative water resources planning for the future. Planning and implementation of a seawater desalination plant represents a significant infrastructure project and requires positive action in the areas of funding, envir...
This paper describes the environmental characteristics and situation of aquatic habitats and communities in southern continental and maritime areas of southeastern South America (Patagonian Shelf GIWA Subregion), resulting from an overall assessment carried out within the framework of a GIWA project, mostly on the basis of publicly available data. The main focus of the analysis was on the curre...
The collection of fog water is a simple and sustainable technology to obtain fresh water for afforestation, gardening, and as a drinking water source for human and animal consumption. In regions where fresh water is sparse and fog frequently occurs, it is feasible to set up a passive mesh system for fog water collection. The mesh is directly exposed to the atmosphere, and the foggy air is pushe...
One of the main problems experienced by the islanders of Lakshadweep is associated with the availability of fresh water for drinking purpose. The scarcity of fresh water is due to the peculiar hydrologic, geologic, geomorphic and demographic features. Proper understanding of the groundwater condition, in terms of availability, distribution and quality, is very important to meet the increasing d...
The role of water pricing for managing water resources is widely recognized in many areas of the world because of the increasing scarcity of water resources, a high competition between water uses and environmental degradation. Based on the analysis of cost of water, this paper explores which types of cost should be reflected in the water pricing enhancing the sustainability of water resources. ...
In large countries with sharp temporal and spatial variation in water resources, interbasin water transfer projects seem to be an ultimate solution to ease water shortage and secure a balanced economic development among different regions. However, such projects are prone to problems and controversies, and may challenge the established basin management, legal system and policy making procedure w...
A monitoring network that resolves the spatial and temporal variations of the water quality is essential in the sustainable management of water resources and pollution control. Due to cost concerns, it is important to optimize the monitoring locations so to use the least number of stations required to obtain the most comprehensive monitoring. The optimal design of monitoring networks is commonl...
