Addressing Uncertainty in TMDLS: Short Course at Arkansas Water Resources Center 2001 Annual Conference [PDF]
Management of a critical natural resource like water requires information on the status of that resource. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reported in the 1998 National Water Quality Inventory that more than 291,000 miles of assessed rivers ...

Summary Many agricultural, agri‐environmental and organic support payments are paid at a flat‐rate per hectare that does not reflect actual environmental outcomes on farms. We propose an indicator‐based approach using a combination of result and action (proxy) based indicators to assess overall environmental outcomes at farm‐level as a basis for future

A new way to geoengineer landscapes using computer‐based landform evolution models
Computer‐based Landscape Evolution Models can be used to both design and evaluate new landforms. Abstract The design and construction of post‐mining landforms is a complex undertaking where any structure requires integration with underlying materials and the surrounding unmined or undisturbed landscape.

Assessment of Soil Erosion Risk in Sareskandar Chay Catchment, Eastern Slope of Sahand Mountain Using USLE Model and GIS [PDF]
Soil erosion is a serious problem, due to progressive arid condition and incorrect management on the eastern slopes of Sahand Mt. Many parameters are aggravating soil erosion in this study area and in catchment scale.

L'Osservatorio delle disuguaglianze dell'Azienda USL di Ferrara
È ormai riconosciuto che bassa condizione socio-economica e limitato sviluppo culturale possono agire negativamente sul benessere individuale e sul livello di salute collettiva e determinano criticità nell’accesso alle cure, fenomeni che appaiono prevedibili, prevenibili e correggibili per migliorare la qualità e l’efficienza del sistema sanitario ...

Potential effects of environmental change on mining wastes in a hyperarid climate [PDF]
Three desert washes were sampled to evaluate the transport of contaminated sediments from abandoned mining sites to downwash environments. The area of concern is an extreme arid climate considered stable and not to pose pathways for contaminated ...

Inappropriate land management leads to soil loss with destruction of the land’s resource and sediment input into the receiving river. Part of the sediment budget of a catchment is the estimation of soil loss.

ABSTRACT For post‐mining landscapes, erosion rates need to be demonstrably similar to that of the surrounding areas. Post‐mining landscapes are assessed (usually with a numerical model) to determine their erosion potential both in the pre‐ and post‐construction phases. Field plots, which rely on natural rainfall, provide the most reliable data; however,
