These include the connection;between cities and surrounding landscapes, across different boundaries and scales; the persistence;of environmental and development inequities; and the growing impacts of global;climate change, including how physical conditions and social implications are being anticipated;and addressed.

Beyond Waters Archaeology and Environmental History of the Amazonian Inland

This book is one of the outcomes of the project Cultivated Wilderness: Socio-economic development and environmental change in pre-Columbian Amazonia (http://www.cultivated-wilderness.org/). The project has particularly focused on the previously relatively unknown prehistory of the Amazonian hinterland. Our work has revealed that pre-Columbian settlements in the Santarém region in the State of …

Beyond Waters

Ethnohistorical sources indicate that the Tapajó occupied a large area on the lower Amazon in the 16th century, the present day location of the city of Santarém. Curt Nimuendaju found 41 archaeological sites containing the same types of artefacts that were also found in the hinterland in the 1920s, attesting that the Tapajó dominated a much larger territory

Beverage Consumption Habits around the World: Association with Total Water an…

Inadequate hydration is a public health issue that imposes a significant economic burden. In Spain, data of total water intake (TWI) are scarce. There is a clear need for a national study that quantifies water and beverage intakes and explores associations between the types of beverages and energy intakes

The most analyzed systems in the Special Issue are the Water Distribution Systems (WDSs), with the following four topics explored: asset management, modelling of demand and hydr…

Advances in In Situ Biological and Chemical Groundwater Treatment

A stall of cis-1,2-DCE and vinyl chloride (VC) is frequently observed during bioremediation of groundwater chloroethenes via reductive dechlorination. These chloroethenes may be oxidised by aerobic methanotrophs or ethenotrophs co-metabolically and/or metabolically

Advances in Hydrologic Forecasts and Water Resources Management

The impacts of climate change on water resources management as well as the increasing severe natural disasters over the last decades have caught global attention. Reliable and accurate hydrological forecasts are essential for efficient water resources management and the mitigation of natural disasters

Emerging Pollutants: Protecting Water Quality for the Health of People and th…
