- Bismuth Subcarbonate Decorated Reduced Graphene Oxide . . . - MDPI
In this paper, bismuth subcarbonate (BiO)2CO3-reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite incorporated in Nafion matrix ((BiO)2CO3-rGO-Nafion) was synthesized and further applied, for the first time, in the sensitive detection of Pb(II) and Cd(II) by square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) The as-synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Raman
- Managed Aquifer Recharge for Sustainable Groundwater Management: New . . .
The combined effect of climate change and increased water demand has put significant strain on groundwater resources globally Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) has become an effective approach for addressing groundwater depletion problems and sustainable management of groundwater resources This review article provides an extensive insight into the existing knowledge of MAR, including the main
- Prediction of Root-Zone Soil Moisture and Evapotranspiration in . . . - MDPI
This study provides a comprehensive assessment of the HYDRUS-1D model for predicting root-zone soil moisture (RZSM) and evapotranspiration (ET) It evaluates different soil hydrodynamic parameter (SHP) schemes—soil type-based, soil texture-based, and inverse solution—under varying cropping systems (Zea mays–Glycine max rotation and continuous Zea mays) and moisture conditions (irrigated
- A Review on Remediation Technology and the Remediation . . . - MDPI
With the rapid development of industry and agriculture, soil contamination has become a significant environmental issue, and the heavy metal contamination of soils is an important part of it The main methods for the remediation of heavy metal-contaminated soils include physical methods, chemical methods, biological methods, and combined remediation methods have been proposed as research
- Water Security Under Climate Change: Challenges and Solutions . . . - MDPI
Different countries face significant challenges in managing water-related natural hazards, such as floods and shortages, while ensuring adequate water quality and quantity to satisfy human needs and preserve ecosystems Climate change projections exacerbate this situation by intensifying the hydrological cycle, resulting in substantial changes in precipitation patterns, evapotranspiration, and
- Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS): Principles, Construction . . .
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a powerful technique used for the analysis of interfacial properties related to bio-recognition events occurring at the electrode surface, such as antibody–antigen recognition, substrate–enzyme interaction, or whole cell capturing Thus, EIS could be exploited in several important biomedical diagnosis and environmental applications However
- Cropland Soil Salinization and Associated Hydrology: Trends . . . - MDPI
While global food demand and world population are rapidly growing, land potential for cropping is steadily declining due to various soil degradation processes, a major one of them being soil salinization Currently, approximately 20% of total cropland and 33% of irrigated agricultural land are salinized as a result of poor agricultural practices and it is expected that by 2050, half of the
- Remote Sensing Techniques for Water Quality Monitoring: A Review - MDPI
Freshwater resources are facing increasing challenges to water quality, due to factors such as population growth, human activities, climate change, and various human-made pressures While on-site methods, as specified in the USGS water quality sampling handbook, are usually precise, they require more time, are costly, and provide data at specific points, which lacks the essential comprehensive
