The purpose of the research is to analyze the prospects for the agriculture development in the Central Asian region and Tajikistan in particular, in terms of identifying the main favorable and constraining factors for the further agriculture development. The Pyanj river is one of the main tributaries of the Transboundary Amu Darya River in the Central Asian region, whose waters are a source of drinking water supply for the population and 80% used for irrigation of agricultural land. The trend of deteriorating water quality of Central Asian River systems recently has been increasing, and monitoring water quality from the formation …
Flood Analysis And Hydraulic Competence Of Drainage Structures Along Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit, Moses Kiwanuka, Seleshi Yilma, Joel Webster Mbujje, John Bosco Niyomukiza
Flood Analysis And Hydraulic Competence Of Drainage Structures Along Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit, Moses Kiwanuka, Seleshi Yilma, Joel Webster Mbujje, John Bosco Niyomukiza
Journal of Environmental Science and Sustainable Development
The occurrence of flooding events and the associated risks are increasing in the urban areas of most developing countries. Flooding in any circumstance causes major stresses on affected area’s economic, social and environmental regimes. Therefore, the current study presents a flood analysis and hydraulic competence of existing drainage structures on some selected roads of Addis Ababa City, after integration with Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit (AALRT) Drainage Systems. The existing side drains and cross drainage structures located within the study area were inspected and assessed to ascertain different aspects relating to their performance. Different watersheds were delineated. Hydrological analysis was …
Pillars Of Sustainable Development–Land Capability And Conceptual Project Design, Ian D. Hollingsworth
Pillars Of Sustainable Development–Land Capability And Conceptual Project Design, Ian D. Hollingsworth
Journal of Environmental Science and Sustainable Development
Conserving land capability is a pillar of sustainable development strategy. Land units comprising unique combinations of native vegetation, soils, geology, and landforms are used to interpret local environmental processes and land capabilities. An emerging practice is extrapolation modeling of edaphic parameter surfaces in Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) using statistical correlation. Commercial studies of land capability for sustainable development, including a mine closure in a national park, another closure for grazing land restoral, urban stormwater flood mitigation, and wind farm development in plantation forestry, are presented to illustrate applications and review the utility of DSM data. The first case, a mine …
Indonesia Natural Mineral For Heavy Metal Adsorption: A Review, Grandprix T. M. Kadja, Moh Mualliful Ilmi
Indonesia Natural Mineral For Heavy Metal Adsorption: A Review, Grandprix T. M. Kadja, Moh Mualliful Ilmi
Journal of Environmental Science and Sustainable Development
Indonesia has abundant mineral resources used as natural adsorbent materials for the absorption of heavy metal. Among these are natural zeolites, clay, and ashes. These natural materials showed high performance adsorption capacity with respects to their low cost and high availability. Several research reports had been published for studying the performance of the natural materials as adsorbent of several heavy metals i.e., Hg, Pb, Fe, Cd, Cr, Zn, Ni, and Cu by examining the effect of various factors, including pH, contact time, initial concentration, temperature, and dosage. Furthermore, to determine the adsorption rate, mechanism, and efficiency of natural materials in …
