Surveillance of Naegleria fowleri in Louisiana's public water systems
Journal of Water and Health, 2023 The free-living amoeba Naegleria fowleri (Nf) inhabits soil and natural waters worldwide: it is thermophilic and thrives at temperatures up to 45 °C and in a multitude of environments.

Monitoring the Water Stress of an Indoor Living Wall System Using the “Triangle Method” [PDF]
Sensors, 2020 Living walls are important vertical greening systems with modular prevegetated structures. Studies have suggested that living walls have many social benefits as an ecological engineering technique with notable potential for reconciliation ecology ...

Long-term persistence of infectious Legionella with free-living amoebae in drinking water biofilms
International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2019 Prolific growth of pathogenic Legionella pneumophila within engineered water systems and premise plumbing, and human exposure to aerosols containing this bacterium results in the leading health burden of any water-related pathogen in developed regions ...

Water (Switzerland)This paper explores how water and water-based systems change their structure under different conditions, such as pH, temperature, and electric fields. These changes affect the properties and performance of living and non-living systems that use water or water-based systems in various technologies.

Maize Water Use in Living Mulch Systems with Stover Removal
Crop Science, 2012 ABSTRACTConstraints to maize (Zea mays L.) stover biomass harvest may be mitigated by using a living mulch (LM) to offset C exports and control soil erosion. Living mulches can compete with the main crop for resources, particularly water. The objectives of this research were to quantify soil water dynamics and maize water use in continuous maize with ...

Co-Occurrence of Free-Living Amoeba and Legionella in Drinking Water Supply Systems
Medicina, 2019 Background and Objectives: Legionella is one of the most important water-related pathogens. Inside the water supply systems and the biofilms, Legionella interact with other bacteria and free-living amoeba (FLA).
