Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond Volume 2: Water-Harvesting Earthworks
Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands and Beyond (Vol. 2): Water-Harvesting Earthworks
Author(s): Brad Lancaster
Publisher: Rainsource Press
Date: 2007-07-01
Format: PDF
Language: English
ISBN10: 0977246418
ISBN13: 9780977246410

Rainwater Harvesting for Drylands: Guiding Principles to Welcome Rain into Your Life and Landscape is the first volume of three-volume guide on how to conceptualize, design, and implement sustainable water-harvesting systems for your home, landscape, and community. This book enables you to assess your on-site resources, gives you a diverse array of strategies to maximize their potential, and empowers you with guiding principles to create an integrated, multi-functional water-harvesting plan specific to your site and needs.
Volume 2 builds on the information presented in volume 1, showing you how to select, place, size, construct, and plant your chosen water-harvesting earthworks. It presents detailed how-to information and variations on a diverse array of earthworks, including chapters on mulch, vegetation, and graywater recycling so you can customize the techniques to fit the unique requirements of your site. Real-life stories and examples permeate this volume.

Water Resources (Foundations of Contemporary Environmental Studies Series)
Water Resources (Foundations of Contemporary Environmental Studies Series)
Author(s): Dr. Shimon C. Anisfeld PhD
Publisher: Island Press
Date: 2010-08-26
Format: pdf
Language: English
ISBN10: 1597264946
ISBN13: 9781597264945
Pages: 352
Size: 1.50 MB
Description:
In this concise introduction to water resources, Shimon Anisfeld explores the fundamental interactions between humans and water, including drinking, sanitation, irrigation, and power production. The book familiarizes students with the current water crisis and with approaches for managing this essential resource more effectively in a time of rapid environmental and social change. Anisfeld addresses both human and ecological problems, including scarcity, pollution, disease, flooding, conflicts over water, and degradation of aquatic ecosystems. In addition to providing the background necessary to understand each of these problems, the book discusses ways to move towards better management and addresses the key current debates in the water policy field.
In the past, water development has often proceeded in a single-sector fashion, with each group of users implementing its own plans without coordination with other groups, resulting in both conflict and inefficiency. Now, Anisfeld writes, the challenge of water management is figuring out how to balance all the different demands for water, from sanitation to energy generation to ecosystem protection.
For inquiring students of any level, Water Resources provides a comprehensive one-volume guide to a complex but vital field of study.

Methods and Tools for Drought Analysis and Management (Water Science and Technology Library)
Methods and Tools for Drought Analysis and Management (Water Science and Technology Library)
Author(s): Giuseppe Rossi
Publisher: Springer
Date: 2007-12-03
Format: PDF
Language: English
ISBN10: 140205923X
ISBN13: 9781402059230
Pages: 418
Size: 15.70 MB on disk
Description:
Implementation of effective drought management policies requires both advanced technologies and appropriate methods. Monitoring and forecasting systems, practical tools for risk assessment, as well as simple and objective criteria to select and implement appropriate drought mitigation measures are key elements for a successful drought management strategy.
These key issues have been tackled by universities and public agencies involved in the EU projects Sedemed and Sedemed II (Programme Interreg IIIB MEDOCC), aimed at the definition of an integrated network for real time monitoring of drought, the development of common methodologies for drought analysis and forecasting, as well as the definition of proper mitigation strategies for the Mediterranean countries.
The book presents the main outcomes of such projects with a special focus on: drought monitoring and forecasting techniques at different spatial scales; new or modified agrometeorological indices and remote sensing technique for drought identification and characterization; tools to improve surface water resources management under drought conditions; methods and tools for groundwater resources monitoring and management, based on hydrogeological and hydrodynamics characteristics of aquifers; general criteria to select and implement mitigation strategies to prevent or minimize drought impacts.

Stroud's papers on estimation of cohesive soil parameters by SPT
I belive that using of any correlation formula without reading original paper that suggested it,probably, lead to wrong way. Because any suggestion, is based on assumption that should be in mind, when they are used. Three papers listed below (specially no.3) are principal refrences in estimation of cohesive soil parameters by SPT. I will be very thankful if any of our friends can help me to get them. Thanks in advance.
