Partitioning the impacts of spatial and climatological rainfall variability in urban drainage modeling [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017
The performance of urban drainage systems is typically examined using hydrological and hydrodynamic models where rainfall input is uniformly distributed, i.e., derived from a single or very few rain gauges.

Introduction of rain gauges into monitoring of sewer systems: Experiences in choosing, testing and installing the measuring equipment [PDF]

, 2005
U cilju poboljšanja efikasnosti rada postojećeg kanalizacionog sistema u uslovima povećane urbanizacije, javlja se potreba da se preciznije utvrde elementi bilansa voda koje se transportuju ovim sistemom. Na slivu kanalizacione crpne stanice "Čukarica", kao pilot modelu u sistemu Beogradskog vodovoda i kanalizacije, jedna od predviđenih aktivnosti je ...

Efficiency of stormwater control measures for combined sewer retrofitting under varying rain conditions: Quantifying the Three Points Approach (3PA) [PDF]

Environmental Science & Policy, 2016
Abstract We present a method to assess and communicate the efficiency of stormwater control measures for retrofitting existing urban areas. The tool extends the Three Points Approach to quantitatively distinguish three rainfall domains: (A) rainwater resource utilisation, (B) urban stormwater drainage pipe design, and (C) pluvial flood mitigation ...

Enhancing Recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, Texas: Measures, Outcomes, and Lessons for Karst Aquifers

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract Managed aquifer recharge is a widely adopted method that involves storing excess water underground for future use. While managed aquifer recharge has been applied globally to different aquifer types, its use in karst aquifers is less common due to the unique hydrogeological characteristics of these systems, including high permeability ...

Melanism in salamanders: effects of insularity, sex and size on dorsal colouration in Salamandra salamandra

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In this study we tested the effects of insularity on amphibian colouration using the fire salamander as a model system. Although increased melanism was not a consistent pattern across all islands, salamanders from one island exhibited higher proportions of black pigmentation than mainland populations, while insular populations overall showed reduced ...

Sewer sediment deposition prediction using a two-stage machine learning solution

Journal of Hydroinformatics
Sediment accumulation in the sewer is a source of cascading problems if left unattended and untreated, causing pipe failures, blockages, flooding, or odour problems.

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

The Role of Environmental Variables in Waste Stabilization Ponds' Morphodynamics

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2019
In management of helminth infections and transmission, the correct prediction of sludge accumulation patterns in waste stabilization ponds (WSP) is important as sedimented eggs are associated with sludge depth.

A Simple Method to Develop a Formula for Estimating Concentration Time of Drainage Design

Aceh International Journal of Science and Technology, 2020
Concentration time of rainfall is an important aspect to determine drainage design. A general rational formula is used to determine design flood or peak flow in urban drainage planning, especially for storm sewer design.

Serious Bacterial Infections in Hospitalized Neonates in Eastern Ethiopia: Investigating the Emerging Pathogen Pantoea dispersa Compared With Klebsiella pneumoniae

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Serious bacterial infections (SBIs) are major contributors to neonatal morbidity and mortality in low‐income countries. We describe the aetiology and risk factors for neonatal bacteraemia and in‐hospital mortality in eastern Ethiopia, focusing on Pantoea dispersa, a rarely studied pathogen, and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
