The Once and Future Hydrology Is Whole Earth Hydrology

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists
We here argue for a new paradigm to advance pursuit of truth in global freshwater science. Our proposed Whole Earth Hydrology is hydrology that is explicitly empirical and discovery‐based, grounded in primary data, detailed at scale, and incorporates ...

Vanillin production from lignin depolymerization by acidic deep eutectic solvent and its possible mechanism

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract As one of the most abundant renewable resources and complex aromatic polymers, lignin holds great promise for producing monophenolic compounds. However, its depolymerization into valuable monomers is hindered by intricate side reactions. In this study, alkaline lignin was converted into vanillin using nine choline chloride‐based deep eutectic ...

A multi‐level approach for multi‐objective optimization in process eco‐design

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract This work addresses a central challenge in process eco‐design: how to efficiently integrate environmental and economic criteria—often conflicting—into early design stages while managing the high dimensionality of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) indicators.

AI‐driven circular economy optimization in waste management: A review of current evidence

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in waste management has the potential to significantly advance circular economy objectives by enhancing efficiency, reducing waste, and optimizing resource recovery. However, realising these benefits depends on addressing significant technical, economic, and systemic ...

Hydrology and World History: Rivers and Watersheds for Students

Open Rivers, 2017
How can one convey, to students of history, mankind’s intimate connections to streams, rivers, lakes, and seas? The vision of humans as landlocked inhabitants has been reaffirmed in exaggerated terms by historical texts and maps.

Assessing the Sustainability of Community‐Managed Irrigation Systems Using Multicriteria Analysis and Sustainability Indicators in Northern Ethiopia: A Holistic Approach

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reservoir‐based irrigation schemes (RBISs) have been developed to minimize the adverse effects of moisture stress and improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in semi‐arid regions. However, many RBISs perform below expectations. A multistage expert elicitation approach and an indicator‐based Sustainability Assessment of Food and ...

Development and Testing of a Low‐Cost Soil Moisture Sensor for Real‐Time Irrigation Scheduling

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective irrigation scheduling is essential for improved water management in irrigated areas, with soil moisture monitoring recognized as one of the most effective methods. However, challenges such as the high cost of sensors and the difficulties in monitoring large areas hinder their practical application, particularly for smallholder ...

Transforming Agricultural Water Management Through the Water–Energy–Food Nexus: Trends, Opportunities, Barriers and Solutions

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural water management (AWM) is increasingly transitioning towards transformative thinking, where interconnected sectors, including water, energy and food, are managed holistically. Trends point towards cross‐sectoral and harmonised strategies to optimise water use efficiency and productivity, integrate renewable energy, promote ...
