[EN] Jordan is one of the most water-poor countries in the world. Natural water resources are few and always threatened by the modern activities that are worsening the situation. During the Umayyad period,(661-750 AD) ...
Sectorization is a process aimed at efficiently managing Water Supply Networks (WSNs). There are many large WSNs where the number of sectors into which they might be subdivided is initially unknown. Our method uses concepts ...
This paper uses a multi-agent approach as a quick and easy tool for the interpretation and
analysis of the characteristics of Water Supply System (WSS) components when working
on a collection of Ground Penetrating Radar ...
[EN] This paper analyses recent experiences of water transfers between rural and urban areas in Mediterranean Spain (Valencia Region) to assess the validity and sustainability of these procedures, and their fairness and ...

Assessment of forest water-use (WU) is undoubtedly important and necessary, especially
in water scarcity areas that are already suffering the main negative impacts of climate
change. However, instead of just determining ...
The paper shows how some water sensitive strategies that have traditionally been used in Mediterranean agriculture to manage rainwater reappear as basic elements in the design of the main urban parks built in recent years ...
Auf kleinstem Nenner: Palladiumcluster mit drei oder vier Atomen erwiesen sich als katalytisch aktive Spezies in ligandenfreien palladiumkatalysierten C-C-Kupplungen (siehe Bild). Die Cluster konnten in Wasser stabilisiert ...
