A smart-farm solution to reduce agriculture water consumption.
Monitoring the Effectiveness of Floodplain Habitat Restoration
Floodplains are some of the most ecologically important and human‐impacted habitats throughout the world.
Monitoring the Riverine Pulse
Improving our understanding of hydrologic and biogeochemical processes through nitrate evolution.
Printable Water Sensor
A Spanish-Israeli team of scientists developed a new, versatile plastic-composite sensor that can detect tiny amounts of water. The 3D printable material is cheap, flexible and non-toxic and: it changes the colour.
Improving Management of Water Distribution Systems by Understanding Microbial Ecology
Operators are now increasingly being held accountable to ensure delivered water is safe for human consumption, yet little is understood on how to best to manage these living engineered systems.
“Golden Age” of Molecular Microbiology: Understanding Freshwater Microbial Communities
In the “golden age” of molecular microbiology, modern molecular tools enable researchers to understand freshwater microbial communities in unprecedented detail by identifying and enumerating them, as well as determining their activity in the environment.
The Changing Water Cycle: Burabay National Nature Park, Northern Kazakhstan
In a recent review, the hydrological cycle of the small lakes within Burabay National Nature Park (BNNP), Northern Kazakhstan are studied, which are very sensitive to climate change and anthropogenic influences.
Drone Flying is a New Method for Monitoring River Habitats
Monitoring the quality and distribution of physical habitat parameters in rivers, such as water depth, grain size and flow velocity, is vital for species survival.
How to Get and Keep Citizens Involved in Mobile Crowd Sensing for Water management?
A checklist for citizen science projects was developed based on a review of key success factors from previous projects reported in literature.
From Wastewater to Self-Powered Papertronics
Researchers at the State University of New York-Binghamton have constructed a stackable, 3D-foldable bacteria-powered battery within a single sheet of paper for on-chip, disposable paper-based electronics.
