While standard methods for chlorine taste and odor (T&O) detection rejection thresholds exist, little rigorous research has been conducted on T&O in humanitarian settings. To fill this gap, we estimated using the Forced-Choice Triangle Test (FCT) Flavor Rating Assessment (FRA) a Ugandan refugee settlement. We these tests with 410 male female participants, aged 5–72 years, piped trucked surface water bottled water. also 30 focus group discussions 37 surveys data collectors. Median...
Unprecedented global population displacement in recent years has increased the burden of waterborne illnesses refugee and internally displaced person (IDP) settlements. Unlike contexts where water is piped directly to home, urban-scale IDP settlements, users manually collect from public tapstands transport it their dwellings they store use over several hours. This creates potential for recontamination, increasing illness risk. Humanitarian responders need optimize treatment minimize risk at...
The initial analysis of data collected during the airborne experiments has demonstrated passive radar operation, using commercial FM radio signals as illuminators opportunity, and these are believed to be first results this kind. have highlighted several practical techniques for improving system performance: multiple perspectives, optimal illuminator modulation bandwidth, looks over time.

The Safe Water Optimization Tool (SWOT) generates evidence-based point-of-distribution free residual chlorine (FRC) targets to adjust dosing by operators and ensure water quality at point-of-consumption. To investigate SWOT effectiveness in surface waters, we conducted two before-and-after mixed-method evaluations a Uganda refugee settlement served piped trucked systems. We surveyed 888 users on knowledge, attitudes, practices; collected 2768 samples evaluate FRC,
