Water quality monitoring and hydraulic evaluation of a household roof runoff harvesting system in France [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The quality of harvested rainwater used for toilet flushing in a private house in the south-west of France was assessed over a one-year period. Twenty-one physicochemical parameters were screened using standard analytical techniques.

Bioinspired Multifunctional Flexible C‐SiC Fibrous Aerogel for Superior Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Under Extreme Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This schematic presents a biomimetic C‐SiC fibrous aerogel inspired by the special structure of momordica charantia. It exhibits outstanding thermal insulation and ultrahigh specific electromagnetic shielding performance, together with excellent high‐temperature stability and mechanical flexibility, showing great promise for aerospace applications ...

Runoff as a Stochastic Process

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Computers in Simulation, 2022
Runoff stationary critical flow is investigated as a stochastic process by means of two routing simulation models, a stream confluence, which has beens interpreted as a Marcus- Lushnikov coalescence process, and a channel splitting model, which has ben interpreted as a Markov chain over a regular tree.

Nanoscale Optical Inhomogeneities From Compositional Segregation Within Individual GaN‐on‐Si Quantum Wells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work visualizes local variations in luminescence and relates them to nanoscale chemical inhomogeneities in single InxGa1−xN quantum wells. We demonstrate that the elemental segregation is only inherent to quantum wells with high indium content. Density functional theory shows this to be the result of strain‐induced phase stabilization, explaining ...

CO2‐Induced Reverse Lattice Oxygen Spillover on Pt/CeO2 Enables Sulfur‐Resistant Dry Reforming of Methane

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A critical step, dry reforming of methane (DRM) converts biogas into useful syngas. Yet trace H2S in biogas rapidly poisons DRM catalysts, limiting practical use. We developed a robust Pt/CeO2 catalyst sustaining DRM activity via CO2‐induced reverse lattice oxygen spillover in H2S‐rich environments.

Projected Runoff Changes and Their Effects on Water Levels in the Lake Qinghai Basin Under Climate Change Scenarios

open access: yesHydrology
Lake Qinghai, the largest closed-basin lake on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau, plays a crucial role in maintaining regional ecological stability through its hydrological functions. In recent decades, the lake has exhibited a continuous rise in water level and

Alternative Policy Designs to Help Farmers Select Profitable Conservation Practices

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Voluntary private carbon initiatives (VPCIs) promote the implementation of agricultural conservation practices that mitigate emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) via financial incentives to participating farmers. Simultaneously, an array of public policies supports the adoption of conservation practices through technical and financial ...

Modelling of water, sediment and phosphorus runoff: implications for grain cropping in southwest Australia

open access: yes, 2010
Fertiliser decision support systems are widely used for making phosphorus (P) fertiliser recommendations. However, the current decision support systems do not provide an environmental assessment (e.g. P runoff) of the P fertiliser recommendation.

Impact of coarse sediment supply from hillslopes to the channel in runoff-dominated, dryland fluvial systems

open access: yes, 2014
Sediment supply from hillslopes to channels is an important control on basin functioning and evolution. However, current theoretical frameworks do not adequately consider processes of runoff-driven hillslope sediment supply, which affect river channels ...

Stochastic Ecohydrological Perspective on Semi‐Distributed Rainfall‐Runoff Dynamics

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Quantifying watershed process variability consistently with climate change and ecohydrological dynamics remains a central challenge in hydrology. Stochastic ecohydrology characterizes hydrologic variability through probability distributions that link ...
