Neoliberalism and water reforms in western India : commercialization, self-sufficiency, and regulatory bodies
India ; Maharashtra ; Marketing ; Neo liberalism ; Reform ; Regulation ; Urban supply ; Water
The paper deals with the changes brought about by the reforms in water currently under way in many parts of the world. Three particular reforms in the state of Maharashtra are discussed : the commercialization of a parastatal body, the concept
of self-sufficiency as it plays out in the contxt or urban local bodies, and the working of the regulatory body in water. Changes in institutional practices are resulting in changes in subjectivities, foreclosing alternatives, and leading to attempts
Proposals for soil conservation, utilization of waterbodies and mining in Hunan province.

This paper gives a short overview about the hydrological conditions of Hungary with special attention to water budget and water quality problems. It begins with an overview to what extent Hungary is dependent on water, then the water budget
O roli mezgodovyh kolebanij v termiceskih fljuktuacijah vodnyh obektov. (Le rôle des variations interannuelles dans les fluctuations thermiques des eaux (waterbody))
Study of water surface exploration at Yucheng integrated experimental station, Shandong, China
The relationships between evaporation form water surfaces and factors such as meteorological parameters, surface area and depth of waterbodies, structure of evaporation pans and its installation have been analyzed. The daily, yearly and interannual
variations of evaporation from water surfaces are also discussed.

The A. describes some of the trajectories through which the body has been installed in academia. She points to the agglomeration of disparate theoretical interventions that lie under the name of postmodernism. She examines the treatment of the body
This paper reports on a comprehensive investigation into crater formation in soil, sand, pastes of various simple chemicals and water targets by free-falling water drops of different sizes, heights of fall and fall velocities. This study offers
a new approach to rain erosion research in which the behaviour of the raindrop and soil surface as the 2 colliding bodies is considered.

to be consumed by the natural waterbodies to conserve its environmental and ecological functions. Based on this definition, the methods on calculating the amount of environmental and ecological water requirement are determined in the case study on Haihe-Luanhe
In order to reduce the environmental and ecological problems induced by water resources development and utilization, this paper proposes a concept of environmental and ecological water requirement. It is defined as the minimum water amount
Operational monitoring of waterbodies in arid and semiarid regions with SPOT-VEGETATION satellite: contribution of Eumetcast and recent research projects
Africa ; Arid area ; Operational research ; Remote sensing ; Semi-arid area ; Surface water
In western Songnen Plain of China, the saline-alkaline degree of waterbodies is high in salt marsh wetlands. Hydrochemical characteristics of limnic wetlands have intimate relationship with its causes of formation and element character
discriminant for the analysis of salt marsh waterbodies. And the goal is to develop and utilize the water resources in this region reasonably by means of controlling and preventing regional salinization.
Origin and characteristics of massive ground ice on Herschel Island (western Canadian Arctic) as revealed by stable water isotope and Hydrochemical signatures
Herschel Island in the southern Beaufort Sea is a push moraine at the northwestern-most limit of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. Stable water isotope (δ18 O, δD) and hydrochemical studies were applied to two tabular massive ground ice bodies to unravel
their genetic origin. Buried glacier ice or basal regelation ice was encountered beneath an ice-rich diamicton with strong glaciotectonic deformation structures. Both massive ground ice bodies exhibited a mixed ion composition suggestive of terrestrial waters
with a marine influence. Hydrochemical signatures resemble the Herschel Island sediments that are derived from near-shore marine deposits upthrust by the Laurentide ice. A prolonged contact between water feeding the ice bodies and the surrounding sediment
