In recent decades, escalating climate change, continuous population growth, rapid urbanization, and extensive agricultural development have placed increasing pressure on global ecosystems. Particularly in China, intensiv...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to measure the water disappearance in the drinker and the pattern of daily water intake and estimate the amount of water wasted in pig production. The study will also generate inf...

The dynamics of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and their major metabolites were studied in surface waters and plants of the River Xanaes (province of Córdoba, Argentina) during the annual dry season. The results of th...

The Agrio-Caviahue is a natural stream-lake system composed of the Upper Agrio River (UAR) -Lake Caviahue- Lower Agrio River (LAR). The system has a broad pH gradient from extremely acid in the hot spring to almost neutr...

We present a study of the microscopic dynamics of water trapped in reverse non-ionic micelles by means of a series of molecular dynamics simulations. The analysis of the effects of micellar confinement on spectroscopical...

In this work, we compare the performance of two structural indicators based on the degree of translational order up to the second coordination shell in three water models: SPC/E, TIP4P/2005, and TIP5P. Beyond directly co...

The dynamical properties of amphiphilics in Newton black films, as well as those of the water confined between the two charged hydrophilic surfaces, have been calculated via a series of molecular dynamic calculations in ...

Underwater gas pipelines are vital for energy transportation but are often subjected to harsh environments, and any leakage can have significant environmental consequences. Substantial underestimation of gas plume format...

Abstract This study introduces a novel nonlinear mathematical model by considering three dynamic variables: densities of human population and industries, and concentration of atmospheric pollutants. The formulated model ...

Spatio-temporal evaluation of agricultural water use under both observed and future climate conditions is essential for identifying opportunities for water conservation and supporting sustainable farming practices. Howev...

The Atchafalaya Basin, a critical ecological and hydrological region in Louisiana, faces growing water quality challenges driven by anthropogenic modifications and fragmentation. While conventional in situ water quality ...

This work was aimed to study the water vapor transport inside microwave ovens (MWO), both experimentally and through mathematical modeling and simulation. The evaporated water from foods must be purged from the oven to p...

The Guarapiranga and Billings reservoirs are main sources of public water supply to millions of people in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. They have been under intense antropic action as a result of domestic, industrial, ...

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, launched in December 2022, is the first wide‐swath altimetry mission designed to improve our understanding of surface water dynamics through high‐resolu...

El objetivo de este trabajo fue presentar un estudio de la vegetación a través de un esquema metodológico en el cual se utilizaron imágenes satelitales aplicadas a la dinámica fluvial en cuencas pequeñas sin inform...

Monitoring surface water dynamics is critical for hydrologic assessment in drought prone and climate sensitive regions. This study evaluates differences between two widely used satellite-derived inundation products: the ...

IntroductionUrban wetlands are considered an important nature-based solution to mitigate flood impacts in built-up areas like Colombo, Sri Lanka, due to rapid urbanization and intensifying rainfall events. Wetlands withi...

Estuaries function as sinks for microplastics due to their proximity to urban areas and pollution sources. Because of the great availability of plastic debris in these areas, these pollutants can be accumulated in biota ...

Abstract The paper briefly outlines work being done on the movement of cations under a Palmetum-type rain forest near Manaus, Amazonas. It is suggested that the low cation content of river waters Is concerned with the na...

The purpose of this study was to assess hydrological controls (e.g., rainfall, irrigation practices, river discharge, dam operation, evaporation) on surface (SW)- ground water (GW) interactions in an irrigated valley wit...

This study employs molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to systematically investigate the effects of the degree of polymerization (DP 10, 20, and 35) on the mechanical and tribological properties of nitrile butadiene rubb...

The article contains results of a statistical study of water resource accounting in Ukraine in the conditions of martial law. The regulatory framework of water use is shown: constitutional principles and provisions of th...

BackgroundObesity is a major risk factor for lipotoxic cardiomyopathy, a process involving lipid metabolism disorders, inflammatory responses, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen), a traditional C...
