Abstract As climate change progresses, there is increasing emphasis on net zero and energy system decarbonization. Several technologies are contributing to this agenda, but among these, the growth of solar photovoltaics has consistently exceeded all projections. With land-use pressures, expense building-mounted photovoltaics, water surfaces increasingly being exploited host these technologies. However, date, we lack an understanding global potential floating and, as such, do not yet have...
The seasonal and interannual variations of total coliforms (TC) Escherichia coli (EC) were investigated in an urban tropical lake. Precipitation flow rate the controlling parameters influencing coliform dynamics. Correlations obtained to describe lake inlet conditions rate, TC EC. While increased with EC slightly decreased. This unexpected behaviour for was attributed counterbalancing impact loading surface runoff dilution. computed obtain first-order decay rates as functions Reynolds...
Abstract Renewable energy sources, such as floating photovoltaic systems (FPVs), are crucial to mitigating the climate crisis. FPV deployments on freshwater bodies rapidly growing, they avert land-use change, operate with increased efficiency, and potentially improve water availability by reducing evaporation frequency of algal blooms. However, understanding ecological consequences for is very limited despite variable far-reaching range potential impacts. Here, we bring novel insight...
Este trabalho objetivou analisar a relação entre os nutrientes fósforo total (P) enitrogênio (N) e clorofila (Cla) em um pequeno açude urbano açudesrurais. Realizou-se análise dos parâmetros de qualidade da água açudelocalizado Fortaleza (CE), por meio estudo campo, além do levantamentodo histórico monitoramento mesmos 35 açudes rurais,no semiárido Nordeste brasileiro, no estado Ceará. Geraram-se correlaçõesempíricas o fitoplâncton. Posteriormente, analisaram-secenários redução das cargas...
Tropical semi-arid regions suffer with recurrent droughts and uncertain water availability, but a few research studies have been conducted to further understand those complexities their relationships reservoir hydrodynamics. This study assessed the hydrodynamic processes of multiple-use located in Brazilian semiarid region. The aim was apply CE-QUAL-W2 model lake’s thermal structure its variabilities time space by using Richardson’s number (Ri) as reference. Meteorological patterns were also...
O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a hidrodinâmica de um lago urbano hipereutrófico localizado em Fortaleza-CE, Brasil, utilizando o software modelagem 2D CE-QUAL-W2; tendo vista carência dessas análises para nordeste brasileiro. Foram utilizados dados obtidos campo e disponíveis na literatura inserir as informações referentes ao estudado, então simulados os cenários alta baixa vazão parâmetros velocidade, temperatura tempo residência (TR) do reservatório. Com isso, modelaram-se...
In arid and semiarid environments, the evaporation rates are responsible for significant water losses from reservoirs. This condition is of special concern in Brazilian Northeast region, as this one most populous areas planet. The present study aims to assess spatio-temporal variability on surface Pentecoste reservoir, located by using both hydrodynamic model Delft3D a remote sensing technique (RS). While RS has already been used evaluate spatial distribution lakes, was innovatively tested...
