Journal of Spatial Hydrology Spring Vol. 5‚ No. 1 Spatial Analysis of Urban Stormwater Quality M. Ghafouri1 and C.E. Swain Abstract Urban stormwater non-point source pollutants are recognized as a major cause of receiving waters quality deterioration. To date most research has focused on specifying temporal variations of stormwater quality parameters which includes high uncertainties and also increases the risk of pollution control structures failure. Traditionally‚ the temporal variations of quality

House Gas emissions‚ but very few report their water footprint. Water is as important as the air we breathe. We may be able to survive without electricity‚ but not without water. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency‚ an average US family of four uses about 400 gallons of water from their daily activities such as: taking shower‚ laundry‚ washing dishes and flushing the toilet [1]. This water consumption is without taking into account the water that goes into the food they consume‚ clothes

In mathematics‚ the Klein bottle ([klaɪ̯n]) is a non-orientable surface‚ informally‚ a surface (a two-dimensional manifold) with no identifiable "inner" and "outer" sides. Other related non-orientable objects include the Möbius strip and the real projective plane. Whereas a Möbius strip is a two-dimensional surface with boundary‚ a Klein bottle has no boundary. (For comparison‚ a sphere is an orientable surface with no boundary.) The Klein bottle was first described in 1882 by the German mathematician

The Role of Surface Engineering in the Automotive Industry The subject of surface engineering in the automotive industry has developed significantly in the last decade. A large driving force for the need for surface treatments has been energy consumption. 30 per cent of all energy consumed in the European Union derives from transportation activities‚ relying solely on fossil fuels. Due to this‚ and the push to reduce the emissions of polluting gases‚ car manufacturers must produce increasingly

treatment system allows more than 90 percent of inadequately treated domestic sewage to be discharged into surface waters‚ which contain bacteria and viruses that threaten human life. Geographically‚ data show that one-third (30 percent) of BOD generation comes from Metro Manila and Region IV alone‚ at 18 and 15 percent‚ respectively (PEM‚ 2003). Industrial wastewater Reports show that the volume and characteristics of industrial effluents vary by type of industry and are influenced by different factors

The Effects of Snails and Elodea in Water on Carbon Dioxide Levels Problem: How does varying the type of organism (plant or animal) in the level affect the level of carbon dioxide? Background: This lab is used to test the effect the respiration rates in plants in animals and how it affects the level of carbon dioxide present in the water. Oxygen and carbon dioxide are gases that are vital to all organisms‚ whether it is given or released through that organism. Both plants and animals
