GROUNDWATER CONTAMINATION AND THE MANAGEMENT OF A CONJUNCTIVE GROUND AND SURFACE WATER IRRIGATION SYSTEM [PDF]

open access: yes
Irrigation water (including rainfall) that infiltrates the subsurface carries salts, pesticide and fertilizer residues, and other trace elements, thus causing a contamination of aquifers and soils.

Premiminary tests on modified clays for electrolyte contaminated drilling fluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The quality of a bentonite suspension declines in aggressive systems like brackish or saline pore water. An engineered clay (HYPER clay) was developed for sealing materials with enhanced resistance to aggressive conditions.

Straw incorporation: A more effective coastal saline land reclamation approach to boost sunflower yield than straw mulching or burial

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management
In coastal lands, soil salinity greatly impedes crops growth and severely affects the agricultural productivity. Returning the crop straw and residual to soil was considered an important land reclamation method; however, the approach of straw return ...

Historical regulation of Victoria's water sector: A case of government failure? [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper analyses the role of government failure in Victoria’s water sector between 1905 and 1984 as evidenced in the rise of in-stream salinity. It will be shown that high levels of salinity can, in part, be attributed to regulatory failure for two ...

Presystemic influences on thirst, salt appetite, and vasopressin secretion in the hypovolemic rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recent studies have shown that when dehydrated rats are given access to water or various concentrations of saline solution, they consume the same volume of fluid in an initial drinking bout (Hoffmann et al., 2006). Furthermore, there was a close relation
