Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The project studied the losses of nutrients, carbon, and trace elements off catchments in the Mt Lofty Ranges with different annual rainfall (500 to 800 mm range), land management (dairy farms to cleared ungrazed land) and pasture types (high production dairy pastures to perennials to extensively grazed annual pastures). All catchments had texture contrast soils. The projects aims were to determine the conditions where losses were least.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well known that 55% of the world’s population currently lives in urban areas, and this figure is predicted to grow to 68% by 2050, adding more than 2.5 billion people to urban populations. It is also projected that there will be 43 megacities worldwide by 2030, with populations of more than 10 million inhabitants. The United Nations World Water Development Report, 2018, warned that by 2030, the global demand for fresh water is likely to exceed supply by 40%. Added to population growth, climate change has the potential to lead to changes in rainfall regimes, with the potential of increased flooding and drought. Currently, 1.2 billion people are at risk from flooding, but this is predicted to increase to about 1.6 billion, i.e., nearly 20% of the total world population, by 2050. In line with this, replacing deteriorating water management infrastructure that can no longer cope is economically unfeasible, impracticable from a construction point of view, and likely to fail in the long term. To address these issues, approaches are needed that are flexible and have multiple benefits. In its World Water Development Report, 2018, the UN promotes the use of nature-based solutions to some of these problems, with the focus of Sustainable Development Goal 6 (making sure that everyone has access to a safe and affordable supply of potable water and sanitation by 2030) requiring investment in suitable infrastructure across the world. This Special Issue covers the challenges faced in managing urban water in all its forms, from potable supplies to reuse and harvesting, as well as resilient and sustainable approaches developed to address flooding and drought.

Bulltail and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first portion of my dissertation research focuses on water quality and quantity impacts from a potential coal surface mine development on Crow tribal lands in southeastern Montana. My field research analysis will focus on the surface water quality in three adjacent watersheds. The study objective was to determine baseline water quality in watersheds on the Crow Reservation prior to the development of a proposed coal mine site on tribal lands. All watersheds are located within the boundaries of the Crow Indian Reservation. The primary component of both watershed studies consists of an assessment of water quality of surface water originating on tribal lands. The objective of my field research is to determine a baseline assessment of surface water in watersheds prior to mine development, particularly on tribally owned and allotted tracts. In addition, I will determine impacts to water quality from reclaimed coal mine spoils surface runoff and produced water discharge from coal bed methane wells within the watersheds. I will compare the water quality parameters from select undeveloped sites to developed sites within the watershed area. Several mines have been developed in areas downstream of the research site, immediately adjacent to tribal lands. Where the tributaries are still flowing, the surface water quality will be assessed and compared to the upstream baseline data. Historical data from state agencies will also be compared to data collected within watersheds on tribal lands. Analysis has shown the increasing degradation of water quality in watersheds downstream and across the state boundary of Montana into Wyoming where historical mining has occurred. Water quantities affected by coalbed methane development will be outlined and compared to average annual precipitation in the region. Water rights are tied to the land ownership in both states. Where coal bed methane wells were developed, the water rights of receiving waters that would be impacted by direct discharge were quantified. All surface water in Montana was owned by energy companies, in Wyoming the majority of surface water rights where CBM wells were developed was owned by energy companies with a few fee land owners with water rights feeding irrigation canals. All natural resource development was facilitated through groundwater extraction. Had the wells discharged the allowable permitted flowrate of produced water every year, the discharged water would have significantly altered the flowrate of Youngs Creek. In Wyoming the produced water was permitted as beneficial use and discharged into waterways as livestock and irrigation supplies. Montana had changed its permitting requirements and has prohibited the direct discharge of produced water into waterways. Energy companies own the majority of the water rights in the downstream reaches of the watersheds where potential coal mines would be developed. Groundwater levels in coalbed aquifers within the affected watershed have been influenced by the development of coalbed methane wells on tracts adjacent to the tribal lands. Surface water quality has also been impacted by the direct discharge of produced water from coalbed methane wells into local drainages.
