Watershed health assessment using the pressure–state–response (PSR) framework
Land Degradation and Development, 2019A pressure–state–response framework was customized to outline the watershed health (WH) concept. To achieve this, the watershed indicators of pressure, state (S), and response (R) were conceptualized according to 17 climatic, anthropogenic, and ...

Watershed empires, founded by states in the highlands on the upper reaches of river systems, conquered the flood plains and other regions around them. Three of these, Ch'in in ancient China, Assyria in the middle east, and the Inca of Peru, are described, with emphasis on the horrific socio-political systems which they developed.

Frontiers of Health Services Management, 2005
WHEN I WAS first asked to write this commentary for Frontiers of Health Services Management, knowing that I would be contributing with the likes of Emily Friedman, I must admit I was a bit intimidated. But after reflection, I realized that I was able to offer comments on a subject I know all too well-the uninsured and the lack of a comprehensive ...

Designing Watershed Investments for Asmara and the Toker Watershed
2020This chapter presents an application of a novel operational approach for designing and assessing the impacts of Watershed Investments, developed in Chap. 3, to the Asmara and Toker Watershed case study. Assuming urban water security and rural poverty alleviation as two objectives for Watershed Investments, the case study application explores all the ...

We present a new approach for object boundary extraction, called the watersnake. It is a two-step snake algorithm whose energy functional is minimized by the dynamic programming method. It is more robust to local minima because it finds the solution by searching the entire energy space.

ON “BIOREGIONALISM”AND “WATERSHED CONSCIOUSNESS”∗
The Professional Geographer, 1985A diffused but philosophically sophisticated social movement, emphasizing the importance of the sense of place and a locally responsible stewardship of Nature, has been emerging in recent years in various parts of North America. Whether “bioregionalism”is a new way of thinking about our place on Earth and our relationship to it, as some would believe ...

As a pre-processing tool, superpixel algorithms have been popular used in many computer-vision applications. High efficiency is a desired property of superpixel algorithms, especially in real-time vision systems. In this paper, a novel high-efficient superpixel algorithm is developed based on the watershed algorithm, namely the spatial-constrained ...
