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:"

Critical Review of Hydrology for Beginners: A Video Book

Click here to download Dr. Mrinmoy Majumder’s Hydrology for Beginners: A Video Book is an ambitious attempt to make introductory hydrology more accessible through a combination of concise reading materials and video-based instruction. Instead of presenting hydrology solely through equations and descriptive text, the book adopts a multimedia format intended to help learners observe calculations, diagrams and problem-solving procedures in a guided manner. This makes the work particularly relevant to undergraduate students, early-stage researchers and practising engineers who need a structured introduction or rapid refresher. Content and organisation The book addresses several foundational areas of engineering hydrology. The associated learning series includes methods for estimating mean precipitation, testing rainfall-data consistency, correcting and estimating missing rainfall records, analysing hydrological risk, understanding floods, interpreting hydrographs and performing reservoir ...

Retention Change Indicator

Watershed retain water from rainfall within its soil pores and depressions available in the basin. If this capacity of retention get receeded there will be stress on the supply of both water and food to dependent consumers. Check, whether the watershed on which you are staying maintains a healthy retention capacity ? A new tool will help you to ascertain the same and make you prepared for the uncertainties that may come if the retention capacity of your watershed has changed negatively.
