Ierotheos Zacharias, Panayiota Liakou, Irene Biliani
The Water Framework Directive (WFD) 2000/60/EC was issued to combine, renew and clarify the variety of legislations and responsibilities to a common implementation strategy aiming to achieve good ecological and chemical water quality for European waters. In this review, a comparative assessment has been attempted to provide the analysis of the interactions of the most important affecting parameter...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of Climate Change on Water Temperature and Stratification of a Small, Temperate, Karstic Lake (Lake Kozjak, Croatia)Environmental Processes - Tập 10 - Trang 1-24 - 2023
Kristina Šarović, Zvjezdana B. Klaić
As closed systems, lakes are extremely vulnerable to climate change. Understanding the response to climate change is crucial for effective management and conservation of the lakes and their associated ecosystems. This study focuses on Lake Kozjak, Croatia, a small lake belonging to the Plitvice Lakes system. This system represents a unique hydrogeological karstic phenomenon, closely dependent on a...... hiện toàn bộ
Time-Varying Univariate and Bivariate Frequency Analysis of Nonstationary Extreme Sea Level for New York CityEnvironmental Processes - Tập 9 - Trang 1-27 - 2022
Ali Razmi, Heydar Ali Mardani-Fard, Saeed Golian, Zahra Zahmatkesh
Bivariate frequency analysis is an emerging method for the assessment of compound floods, especially in coastal regions. Changing climate, which usually leads to changes in characteristics of extreme hydrometeorological phenomena, makes the application of nonstationary methods more critical. In this research, a methodology is developed to apply frequency analysis on extreme sea level using physica...... hiện toàn bộ
Combined Methods for Quantifying End-Uses of Residential Indoor Water ConsumptionEnvironmental Processes - Tập 4 - Trang 33-47 - 2017
Yurina Otaki, Masahiro Otaki, Toshiya Aramaki
This study aims to develop a suitable tool for understanding the end-uses of indoor water consumption (e.g., toilet, kitchen, bathroom, clothes washing) in developing countries. Both direct metering and questionnaire survey were conducted for each end-use in the surrounding areas of Hanoi, Vietnam. We measured the detailed end-uses of residential indoor water, the disaggregation of total consumpti...... hiện toàn bộ
Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Modelling of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) Treatment with Natural Bio-coagulantsEnvironmental Processes - Tập 7 - Trang 509-535 - 2020
Nurul Asyikin Mohd Najib, Vasanthi Sethu, Senthil Kumar Arumugasamy, Anurita Selvarajoo
Raw palm oil mill effluent (POME) is classified as a highly polluting effluent, which needs to be treated to an acceptable level before being discharged into water bodies. Currently, chemical coagulants are widely used in treating POME, but their hazardous nature has caused several health and environmental problems. Therefore, this research presents the use of natural materials such fenugreek and ...... hiện toàn bộ
