Workshop on Partitioning Biological Effects from Multiple Causes of Aquatic Life Impairment
The ability to identify the factor or factors causing aquatic life impairment of water bodies is of use to wastewater and drinking water utilities and industries as they participate in the Total...
Water Quality Indicators: Nutrient Impacts on Chlorophyll or Algae Species Composition
The researchers have developed a methodological framework that aims to provide a predictive approach to water quality criteria selection.
The basic constituents of the proposed methodology...
Chemical Exposure and Effects in Freshwater Aquatic Species
To protect aquatic ecosystems from stresses induced by toxic chemicals, risk models must be developed, calibrated and verified for feral populations. Although risk models require good estimates of...
Human Pharmaceuticals, Hormones and Fragrances
The observed concentrations of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in raw wastewater confirm that municipal wastewater represents the main disposal pathway for the PPCPs consumed in...
Urban Water Resources Toolbox
Holistic but applicable approaches are urgently needed to help plan long-term, cost-effective and sustainable urban water management systems. Groundwater is a central element in the urban water...
Evaluating Waterbody Assessment and Listing Processes: Integration of Monitoring and Evaluative Techniques
In order to facilitate more effective integration of monitoring data and technically sound assessment methodologies into the waterbody assessment and listing process, a critical evaluation of the...
Engineering and Costs of Dual Water Supply Systems
Fresh water is becoming an ever more valuable and scarce resource, and any method or approach that can contribute to the saving of fresh water resources is therefore beneficial...
Integrated Evaluation for Sustainable River Basin Governance
This Report synthesizes the main results obtained throughout the ADVISOR research project ("Integrated Evaluation for Sustainable River Basin Governance") funded by the European Commission, under...
Evaluation of WET Testing as an Indicator of Aquatic Health in Effluent-Dominated Streams: A Pilot Study
This project evaluated the quality of data needed to determine relationships between chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity (WET) test results and in-stream biological condition. A data quality...
Watershed Management
Watershed management is an integrated approach that evaluates system-wide implications of natural resource problems. It has received considerable attention among communities and resource managers...
