Hydro-Environmental Analysis Freshwater Environments

Focusing on fundamental principles Hydro-Environmental Analysis: Freshwater Environments presents in-depth information about freshwater environments and how they are influenced by regulation. It provides a holistic approach exploring the factors that impact water quality and quantity and the regulations policy and management methods that are necessary to maintain this vital resource. It offers a historical viewpoint as well as an overview and foundation of the physical chemical and biological characteristics affecting the management of freshwater environments. The book concentrates on broad and general concepts providing an interdisciplinary foundation. The author covers the methods of measurement and classification; chemical physical and biological characteristics; indicators of ecological health; and management and restoration. He also considers common indicators of environmental health; characteristics and operations of regulatory control structures; applicable laws and regulations; and restoration methods. The text delves into rivers and streams in the first half and lakes and reservoirs in the second half. Each section centers on the characteristics of those systems and methods of classification and then moves on to discuss the physical chemical and biological characteristics of each. In the section on lakes and reservoirs it examines the characteristics and operations of regulatory structures and presents the methods commonly used to assess the environmental health or integrity of these water bodies. It also introduces considerations for restoration and presents two unique aquatic environments: wetlands and reservoir tailwaters. Written from an engineering perspective the book is an ideal introduction to the aquatic and limnological sciences for students of environmental science as well as students of environmental engineering. It also serves as a reference for engineers and scientists involved in the management regulation or restoration of freshwater environments. | Hydro-Environmental Analysis Freshwater Environments

Downstream Consequences of Ribb River Damming Lake Tana Basin Ethiopia

This study assessed the downstream river system adaptation in response to upstream damming on the Ribb River Ethiopia to irrigate 15 000 ha. It combined primary and secondary data and the application of remote sensing and mathematical modeling. The pre-dam morphodynamic trends of the Ribb River were analyzed for 59 years based on aerial photographs satellite images and newly collected field data. Three dam operation scenarios were developed to analyze the long-term hydro-morphological effects of the dam on the downstream river reaches. It also assessed the applicability of physics-based analytical equations (Equilibrium Theory) compared to a 1D numerical model (SOBEK-RE) to determine the least-morphologically impactful dam operation scenario on the river reaches downstream of the dam. Moreover a HEC-RAS 2D hydrodynamic model was developed to assess the effect of the dam on the flooding extent of the Fogera Plain. This was used to study the potential implications of hydrological alteration on the ecology of the floodplain wetlands as they are the habitats of important fish and bird species. The results contribute to knowledge on the hydro-morphological and environmental impacts of dams on downstream river systems. The developed methodologies and findings may be used to study future hydro-morphological and ecological changes that may arise due to other dam operations or climate change. | Downstream Consequences of Ribb River Damming Lake Tana Basin Ethiopia

Geotechnics of Venice and Its Lagoon

Without any protective intervention the historic city of Venice and its surrounding islands would suffer rapid deterioration due to the increased frequency of tidal flooding as the gap between land surface and sea levels has reduced due to a coupled effect of climate change-induced sea-level rise and natural and anthropic subsidence. Geotechnics of Venice and Its Lagoon provides a clear and comprehensive illustration of the extensive geotechnical aspects of not only the various environmental problems such as land subsidence and wetland surface reduction but also solutions such as the design of the tilting gate foundations against high tides and the restoration and improvement of the drainage system of the renowned Piazza San Marco which have been necessary for the preservation of the extraordinary cultural heritage of Venice. Readers will gain a better understanding of the complex phenomena occurring in the sensitive Venice silts whose hydro-mechanical behavior has required comprehensive laboratory and site investigations and modeling. The book provides: An authoritative analysis of one of the largest and most important geotechnical issues in the world A description of a detailed case study of an ongoing engineering solution The book will be useful for engineers worldwide and is also an excellent reference for students.

Green Energy Sustainable Electricity Supply with Low Environmental Impact

Green Energy: Sustainable Electricity Supply with Low Environmental Impact defines the future of the world’s electricity supply system exploring the key issues associated with global warming and which energy systems are best suited to reducing it. Electricity generation is a concentrated industry with a few sources of emissions which can be controlled or legislated against. This book explains that a green sustainable electricity system is one whose construction installation and operation minimally affect the environment and produce power reliability at an affordable price. It addresses the question of how to build such an electricity supply system to meet the demands of a growing population without accelerating global warming or damaging the environment. The green argument for conservation and renewable energies is a contradiction in terms. Although they produce no emissions because renewable systems are composed of a large number of small units a considerable amount of energy is required to produce erect and maintain them. This book is a response to that conundrum answering key questions such as: How can renewables be exploited to contribute the greatest energy input? Should coal be used for clean fuel and chemical production rather than for power generation? How quickly can we start to build the Green Energy system? The author has more than forty years of experience as an international journalist reporting on power-generating technologies and on energy policies around the world. Detailing the developmental history and current state of the global nuclear industry he discusses the dire immediate need for large quantities of clean emission-free electric power for both domestic and industrial uses. This book details how current technologies—particularly nuclear combined cycle and hydro—can be applied to satisfy safely the growing energy demands in the future. | Green Energy Sustainable Electricity Supply with Low Environmental Impact
