BACKGROUND This study investigated the interaction between heterotrophic bacteria and coliform, fecal coliforms, fecal streptococci bacteria in water supply networks. METHODS This study was conducted during 2013 on water supply distribution network in Aq Qala City, Golestan Province, Northern Iran and standard methods were applied for microbiological analysis. The surface method was applied t...

abstract in order to evaluate crop water stress index (cwsi) and canopy temperature of wheat cultivars under terminal drought stress, a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station of shiraz university, shiraz, during 2009 growing season. five wheat cultivars including shiraz, bahar, pishtaz, sistan and yavaros and four levels of water regime including well watering [irr...

background: corrosivity is one of the factors affecting the water quality. not controlling the chemical quality of water in the distribution network causes corrosion, sedimentation and economical and health damages. the aim of this study was to determine the drinking water corrosivity and sediment of kuhdasht, iran by using the corrosivity index. methods: in this study, 12 predetermined areas l...

The topic of this paper is the presentation of a new network model designed for networks consisting of spatial objects. This model allows the development of more advance representations of systems of networked objects and the study of geographical phenomena propagated through networks. The capabilities of the model in simulation of geographical phenomena propagation are also studied and relevan...

Figure 1. Typical sewage treatment works schematic flow diagram in Hong Kong Hong Kong has the geographical advantage of being situated on the coast and therefore it is possible to use dual water supply systems (fresh + sea water systems in two separate distribution networks) for potable and non-potable uses. From the sea water supply system, about three quarters of the population in Hong Kong ...

Abstract – Understanding the interactions among nodes in a complex network is of great importance, since they disclose how these nodes are cooperatively supporting the functioning of the network. Scientists have developed numerous methods to uncover the underlying adjacent physical connectivity based on measurements of functional quantities of the nodes states. Often, the physical connectivity,...
