The grey water footprint (GWF) concept quantifies the volume of required to dilute pollutants from industrial processes, such as mining, safe levels in downstream systems. In this study, we apply GWF tailing ponds, where leach into surrounding environments. represents needed reduce concentration acceptable levels, considering both pollutant release rates and natural background concentrations. While is promising for managing environmental impact its application ponds challenged by data...
While population density can change the overall water demand of a neighborhood, socioeconomic shifts temporal distribution daily peak demands. This study seeks to determine comparative criticality impacts both types dynamics on operations system—as measured by pressure. specifically assesses scenarios gentrification, associated with increases in higher-income populations and changes. Researchers carried out hydraulic simulations gentrification using an existing system gentrifying U.S. city....
During large and rapid influxes of displaced persons, hosting communities may face challenges in accommodating incoming populations. This study seeks to assess the institutional response international displacement developed urban contexts through exploring how stakeholders (de)legitimized (i.e., either withheld or attributed legitimacy to) inclusion cultural practices planning water sanitation for persons. is enabled by 28 semi-structured interviews individuals involved accommodation persons...
Sudden population influxes into cities—such as those seen during post-disaster migration—place unexpected demands on the urban housing system. Decisions made these are often controversial, potentially hindering ability of organizations involved to respond. This study’s objective was explore strategies (e.g., types information shared and accommodation chosen) that can be used decision-making processes when providing emergency accommodations increase stakeholder acceptance, thus lead...
The recent two decades have marked a significant increase in transnational land investments, fueled by growing demands for food, water, and energy. This global rush, primarily affecting rural areas low middle-income countries, where it often contributes to ongoing transitions from smallholder farming into large-scale commercial agriculture. A key aspect of this transition is the inter-sectoral trade-offs at nexus energy, environment, intersect with local health, livelihoods, ecosystems. Most...
There is growing urgency for actionable and standardized approach to human rights assessments of hydropower dam constructions operations that incorporates multiple dimensions of the right water. Yet, water issues faced by affected communities are determined local contexts therefore challenging map universal norms like in a way that both objective transferrable. Conversely, extends beyond narrow access availability also includes cross cutting obligations (e.g,...
