aims: regarding water as the main source of brio, not only its quantity and being availability is vital, but also its quality must be considered. this study was done in order to determine the correlation between physicochemical bod5 and microbiological parameters (fc and tc) in the kashan university of medical sciences wastewater effluent of activated sludge system.  materials & methods: this d...

abstract the existence of various perceptions related to the efficiency of water use in agricultural sector can hamper the development of appropriate water resource conservation policies. particularly, when there has been an emphasis on increasing water use efficiency by improvement in irrigation systems. the main purpose of current study is to estimate excess water use for a sample of 15 farms...

the aim of this study was to assess the environmental impact of socio-cultural practices on the water quality of river ganga at the foothills of the garhwal himalayas in uttarakhand state, india. the physico-chemical parameters that contributed to the temporal variation and pollution in the river were identified in this study. principal component analysis (pca) and cluster analysis (ca) were us...

a water distribution network is subjected to various abnormal conditions such as pipe breaks, pump failures, excessive demands etc. in the design period. under such conditions, the network may not be able to meet required demands at desired pressures, and becomes deficient. traditional network analysis assumes nodal demands to be satisfied and available nodal pressures are calculated. however, ...

sensitivity analysis might be considered as one of inevitable steps in modelling since it would help to determine the behaviour of model, which was developed for further application. sensitivity analysis was not paid much attention in studies that have been conducted for modelling the relationship between stream water quality and land cover except machine learning techniques such as artificial ...
