  1. 21. Investigation of the origin of salt in coastal aquifers and assessment of metals in the aquatic environment : River Drin and River Vjosa, Albania

    University essay from KTH/Vatten- och miljöteknik

    Author : Maximilian von Bahr; Ida Gomez Bergström; [2018]
    Keywords : Albania; aquifers; bioavailability; Drin; groundwater; isotope analysis; metal speciation; river; saltwater intrusion; Vjosa;

    Abstract : The preservation of freshwater aquifers is one important task of managing natural resources today. Intrusion of saltwater from the sea into the groundwater might occur in coastal-near areas and can affect the freshwater quality negatively. READ MORE

  3. 22. Study of quality of drinking water : In rural areas of Souss Massa region

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för bygg- energi- och miljöteknik

    Author : Marah Casao; [2018]
    Keywords : dricksvatten; vattenbrist; Marocko;

    Abstract : The scarcity of water affects many developing nations. Today, Morocco,characterized by an arid and semi-arid climate, is approaching absolute scarcityof freshwater availability of 730 m3/capita/year. The effect of the scarcity ofwater is highly evident in rural localities, which are driven to rely on wellwater and rainwater harvesting. READ MORE

  4. 23. Geochemical Investigation of Arsenic in Drinking Water Sources in Proximity of Gold Mining Areas within the Lake Victoria Basin, in Northern Tanzania

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Enrico Lucca; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Access to safe drinking water is a challenge for rural communities in many developing countries. Drinking contaminated water endangers human health and impairs social and economic development. Arsenic (As) is a metalloid widely distributed into the environment and is highly toxic in its trivalent inorganic form. READ MORE

  5. 24. Inter-Calibration of Optical Sensors and Implications for Water Quality Monitoring

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Svenja-Maria Hoffmeister; [2017]
    Keywords : Absorbance; fluorescence; optical sensors; DOC; turbidity; water quality; Absorbans; fluorescens; optiska sensorer; DOC; turbiditet; vattenkvalité;

    Abstract : Expected changes in water quality due to a changing climate associated with variabilities in rainfall, runoff and diffusive spreading of pollution pose an emerging risk for the drinking water supply. Extensive monitoring of water quality parameters is of importance and the possibility of sudden extreme events brings up the need of high-frequency measurements. READ MORE

  6. 25. Can we use optical sensors in highly turbid agricultural streams?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Ana Paula Abade Smoginski; [2017]
    Keywords : optical sensors; phosphorus and sediment losses; turbidity; organic matter; agricultural catchments;

    Abstract : Optical sensors are advanced technology capable of monitoring water quality con-tinuously at high temporal resolution. Optical sensors are prone to errors when deployed in streams with high sediment content. Agricultural streams, with high and variable suspended sediment loads, can affect the performance of these instru-ments. READ MORE
