Water reuse for irrigated agriculture in Jordan: challenges of soil sustainability and the role of management strategies [PDF]
, 2010 Reclaimed water provides an important contribution to the water balance in water-scarce Jordan, but the quality of this water presents both benefits and challenges. Careful management of reclaimed water is required to maximize the nutrient benefits while

Variation in Tree Species Ability to Capture and Retain Airborne Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5)
Scientific Reports, 2017 Human health risks caused by PM2.5 raise awareness to the role of trees as bio-filters of urban air pollution, but not all species are equally capable of filtering the air. The objectives of this current study were: (1) to determine the foliar traits for

Soil–Water–Structure Interactions
Geotechnics, 2023 Interactions between soil, fluids (e.g., water), and structures are intrinsic to most geotechnical problems. However, these can be extremely complex and further understanding is needed in this field. Soil–water–structure interactions can be studied on many different scales (micro to macro) and perspectives (experimental, numerical, and theoretical). In
