Water Energy Nexus








Jobs/Vacancy

May 9 2021: Master’s or PhD Assistantship in WEF Nexus research in urban farming systems at UDC
The University of the District Columbia (UDC) is seeking a PhD or Master’s student to be appointed as a Research Assistant to conduct Water-Energy-Food Nexus research in urban farming systems with the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and College of Agriculture, Urban Sustainability and Environmental Science (CAUSES), beginning Summer or Fall 2021.


May 9 2021: SRI2021: Early Career Fund now available for young professionals

"The Sustainability Research & Innovation Congress 2021 (SRI2021) has created a dedicated Early Career Fund which will support young professionals to participate in the event virtually or in-person if the country of residence is Australia. SRI2021is the world’s first transdisciplinary gathering in sustainability – it will be a space of fierce advocacy for sustainability scholarship, innovation, collaboration, and action and will feature sessions on the Water-Energy-Food Nexus."

Case Study

May 9 2021:"Owini, a company in the Mitrelli Group, implemented an innovative water desalination system based entirely on solar energy, within the village Ombala"

"The province is characterized by extensive and arid territories and was hit by a severe drought that the region has endured since 2018. The water desalination system is able to conserve the energy produced during the day, and allows continuous operation of pumping and supplying water to the community around the clock."

What's New in Hydroinformatics Engineering ?

1 “Flood peaks in Mid-Atlantic U.S. watersheds show a V-shaped response to urbanization: they decrease at low urban development (below 10% PDAW), then rise sharply as urbanization increases further due to complex climate-landscape interactions. A neural network model confirmed this nonlinear behavior, underscoring the need to consider more than just urban area when predicting flood risk.”…..Hua et.al.(2025). Click here  to know more. 2 “Artificial neural network (ANN) models using climate indices outperformed ARIMA models for long-term streamflow forecasting at six Victorian stations, with the best ANN achieving Pearson R = 0.90, RMSE = 0.04, and MAE = 2.50 for six-month advance prediction. ANN’s superior accuracy highlights its suitability for operational streamflow forecasts in this region.ANN models using lagged climate indices significantly outperformed ARIMA models for forecasting streamflow at Victoria’s stations, especially at Acheron where the ANN achieved Pearson R = 0.90,...

Five most innovative and sustainable water bottles

Cover Feature: Five most innovative water bottles selected by ODM V2 Five most innovative water bottles Water bottles are now becoming smart. Recently launched water bottles have the capability to track your hydration level and can remind you to drink water when the hydration level is below a predefined level. Some water bottles can either increase or decrease the temperature of the water in the container. Some alternatives come with blue tooth speaker/stirrer/fuser/wifi etc electronic devices. Some variation of smart water bottles has the ability to self-purify when needed. Here in this feature, we try to find the most innovative smart water bottles that are available on the eCommerce sites with the help of ODM. Now let us continue with the regular features : News about Sustainability Audi e-tron's used batteries in e-rickshaws by Nunam A new study finds inactive yeast could be effective as an inexpensive, abundant, and simple material for removing lead contamination from drinking...

Five project ideas for "Hydroinformatics in Groundwater"

     In recent years, advanced soft computation techniques such as Multi-Criteria Decision Making and Geographical Information Systems have been widely used to solve water resource development problems. Hydroinformatics (Hydro means Hydrus or water, and informatics means information science) is a branch of science concerned with the application of advanced soft computation techniques and information and communication technologies (ICTs) to water-related problems. The following are five hydro informatics project topics that can be applied to groundwater problems.
