This Special Issue, “Science and Technology for Water Purification”, brings together cutting-edge research on the latest advancements in water and wastewater treatment technologies, with a focus on innovative solutions that address the multifaceted challenges of water pollution and scarcity As global water demand increases and water quality deteriorates due to the discharge of complex
- Monitoring Crop Evapotranspiration and Crop Coefficients over an Almond . . .
In California, water is a perennial concern As competition for water resources increases due to growth in population, California’s tree nut farmers are committed to improving the efficiency of water used for food production There is an imminent need to have reliable methods that provide information about the temporal and spatial variability of crop water requirements, which allow farmers
- Water Reuse: A Comprehensive Review - MDPI
Water scarcity has emerged as a pressing global concern, driven by population growth, urbanization, and climate change As freshwater resources dwindle, the imperative for water reuse becomes increasingly apparent Reusing water presents a sustainable solution to mitigate scarcity, offering a way to maximize the efficiency of available resources This review delves into the multifaceted
- Satellite NDVI Assisted Monitoring of Vegetable Crop . . . - MDPI
Reflective bands of Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper satellite imagery were used to facilitate the estimation of basal crop evapotranspiration (ETcb), or potential crop water use, in San Joaquin Valley fields during 2008 A ground-based digital camera measured green fractional cover (Fc) of 49 commercial fields planted to 18 different crop types (row crops, grains, orchard, vineyard) of varying
