Five most significant findings of the week related to water resources

Five Most Significant Finding from Water Resources of the week



"Sediment cores taken from the Southern Ocean dating back 23 million years are providing insight into how ancient methane escaping from the seafloor could have led to regional or global climate and environmental changes, according to a new study."


"Scientists analyzing one of the largest genomic datasets of plants have discovered how the first plants on Earth evolved the mechanisms used to control water and 'breathe' on land hundreds of millions of years ago. The study has important implications in understanding how to plant water transport systems have evolved and how these might adapt in the future in response to climate change."


"A new analysis of the River Ganges in West Bengal, India, highlights how wastewater flowing into the river impacts its water quality, and how that influences shifts with seasons and tides."


"MIT researchers have developed a solar-powered desalination system that is more efficient and less expensive than previous methods. In this schematic, a confined water layer above the floating thermal insulation enables simultaneous thermal localization and salt rejection."


"Cuba strengthens capacities for the management of its water resources in the face of climate change
Cuba, a small island developing country, faces the threat of climate change, based on its peculiar environmental characteristics. Its geographical location, configuration, and morphology make it highly vulnerable to climate phenomena capable of compromising the availability of freshwater which, as recalled by Tatiana Villegas, Specialist of Culture and Science Programs of UNESCO Regional Office for Culture in Latin America and the Caribbean:"

How to generate Small‑Scale Power for Self‑Reliant Farms?

Open your very own WordPress Website (AD) The scope and purpose of Anderson’s manual are to give ordinary farmers enough practical understanding of electricity to design, install, and run their own small plants for lighting, heating, and motive power, using the modest water wheels or farm engines they already possess. Written in an accessible, story‑like style, it aims to demystify electrical technology and show that, under typical farm conditions, a private plant can be both technically feasible and economically comparable to buying a good workhorse. Scope Anderson deliberately narrows his scope to the small, self‑contained farm or cluster of neighboring farms that have access to a minor water‑power site or a gasoline engine, rather than to large commercial utilities or high‑voltage transmission systems. The book ranges from simple explanations of horsepower, head, and flow in a farm stream to the selection and coupling of water wheels and dynamos, sizing storage batteries, and laying...
