Reducing Water Losses in Potable Water Distribution Systems: A Case Study of Kocaeli
Water utilities with limited water resources have difficulties arising from high levels of water losses in water supply networks. However, reducing these losses can be possible by monitoring, checking and managing the network correctly. In this study, it

Melatonin Mitigates Salt Stress in Wheat Seedlings by Modulating Polyamine Metabolism
Melatonin, a small molecular weight indoleamine molecule, is involved in various biological processes and responses to environmental cues in plants. However, its function in abiotic stress response and the underlying mechanisms is less clear.

Evolution and quantization methods of rill morphology on the slope under rainfall simulation
The quantitative methods of rill morphology evolution were studied,which employs the indoor soil bin rainfall simulation experiment of two bulk density of loess soil(1. 30 g/cm3,1. 05 g /cm3) under the rainfall intensities of 45 mm/h,87 mm/h and 127 mm/h

Rill morphology evolution and runoff and sediment yielding processes
In order to investigate the mutual feedback effects of rill morphology evolution on runoff and sediment,variation characteristics of runoff and sediment during the evolution of rill morphology were studied. In the current work,an indoor soil bin rainfall

Water Losses During Technical Snow Production: Results From Field Experiments
Alpine as well as Nordic skiing tourism strongly depend on the production of machine-made snow for the timely opening of the winter season. However, it is likely that sublimation, evaporation, wind drift, and the discharge of unfrozen water to the ground
