abstract in order to study the effects of irrigation regimes on physiological traits, yield and water use efficiency of potato (solanum tuberosum l.) in mashhad weather condition, an experiment was conducted in 2009 at research field of the college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, using factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with 3 replications. experimen...

BACKGROUND This study was focused on the probability of carcinogen risk of low-level ingestion and dermal exposure with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from drinking water in Tehran, capital of Iran. METHODS Concentrations of 16 PAHs were measured in the tap, bottled and heated tap water in four different seasons. Using a questionnaire-based survey, exposure with PAHs from drinking wa...

ABSTRACT- Efficient use of irrigation water for summer crops should be considered seriously due to rare occurrence of precipitation in summer. This research was focused on the assessment of water use efficiency for dominant crops of summer cropping pattern in the study area (i.e., maize and rice) via considering water productivity (WP) with different water management scenarios at farm level at ...

The objective of the Parafield Aquifer Storage Transfer and Recovery research project in South Australia is to determine whether stormwater from an urban catchment that is treated in a constructed wetland and stored in an initially brackish aquifer before recovery can meet potable water standards. The water produced by the stormwater harvesting system, which included a constructed wetland, was ...

This paper addresses the questions of acceptable upper limits for storage development and how best to deploy capacity in long-term planning built surface water river basins. Storage-yield curves are used establish sustainable pathways a basin under range environmental flow release scenarios. Optimal distribution at sub-basin level, which complies with an identified pathway, can also be estimate...
