Optimized exploitation of aquifers: application to the Querença-Silves aquifer system [PDF]
WIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 2009 A great deal of optimization models have been developed to support aquifer planning and management with the goal of arriving at the best decisions in relation to the number and siting of infrastructures to be built and how to operate them. A mixed-integer multi-objective linear model has been taken from the literature to define the best decision for ...

Multifactorial Screening for Fine‐Scale Selection of CCS Industrial Clusters and Hubs in Brazil
Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As Brazil moves toward implementing its decarbonization commitments, carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs are emerging as a key pathway for large‐scale CO2 abatement in hard‐to‐abate sectors. This paper presents a multifactorial, data‐driven framework to screen and prioritize potential CCS industrial clusters and hubs across Brazilian regions,

Reduced tillage and cover crop effects on soil moisture and infiltration
Agricultural Water ManagementCropping systems that conserve soil moisture are needed to improve yield or reduce irrigation water demand. This study assessed the ability of different tillage systems, subsoiling, and cover crops to conserve soil moisture, reduce soil water depletion ...

Determination of In Situ Bacterial Growth Rates in Aquifers and Aquifer Sediments [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2003 ABSTRACTLaboratory and field-scale studies with stained cells were performed to monitor cell growth in groundwater systems. During cell division, the fluorescence intensity of the protein stain 5-(and 6-)-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFDA/SE) for each cell is halved, and the intensity can be tracked with a flow cytometer.
