The document discusses trends in wetland loss and implications for management. Over 5,137 acres of wetlands have been lost due to drying of the landscape. An additional 8,375 acres, or 52% of wetlands, have lost hydroperiods classified as temporarily flooded or saturated. This drying is causing organic soils to decompose, invasive species to spread, and upland species to colonize wetland areas. The loss of hydrology and wetland functions implies a probable permanent loss of 52% of wetland stock and potential removal from 60-80% of the county due to land subsidence and hydrophobic soils. Managers can expect more delineation challenges and fewer areas meeting jurisdictional wetland definitions going forward.

Climate Change and Water Resource Management
This document discusses climate change impacts on coastal areas of Bangladesh, specifically increased salinity. It notes that the area affected by salinity has increased from 8,330 km2 in 1973 to 10,560 km2 in 2009. Increased salinity is caused by factors like sea level rise, reduced dry season river flow, and withdrawal of fresh groundwater. Impacts include reduced agricultural production and plant biodiversity, stress on drinking water supplies, and increased health issues. The document outlines some community adaptations and recommends policy and management strategies like improved irrigation and cropping practices.

1. The document summarizes national updates on soil in Egypt, focusing on two case studies: the Nile Delta and Siwa Oasis.
2. In the Delta, the study delineates the pro-Delta and Delta apex based on physiography, topography, and soils. It recommends adapting irrigation systems and cropping patterns based on land suitability to save water.
3. In Siwa Oasis, the study aims to monitor land degradation and its impact on unique agrobiodiversity. It finds waterlogging has increased due to uncontrolled irrigation expansion and recommends better governance of water and land resources to protect ecosystems.
Moving Forward on Agricultural Water Conservation in the Colorado River Basin
Moving Forward on Agricultural Water Conservation in the Colorado River BasinNational Institute of Food and Agriculture
This document summarizes a project that evaluated strategies for agricultural water conservation in the Colorado River Basin. The project had four objectives: 1) Evaluate available conservation technology; 2) Identify legal, economic, and social barriers; 3) Strategize with producers and managers to overcome barriers; and 4) Share findings. Case studies were conducted on innovative collaboration programs. Meetings with producers explored barriers like "use it or lose it" laws. The project concluded that one-size-fits-all solutions are unlikely, and that addressing institutional and economic barriers can benefit farmers and help sustain agriculture in the basin.Factors Affecting Adoption of Nutrient Management Practices by Farmers and Ho...

This document discusses tools and methods for reducing nutrient pollution from agricultural fields through climate-adaptive decision making. It describes a two-part project involving comprehensive soil health assessments and Adapt-N, a software tool for nitrogen recommendations. Adapt-N provides field-specific nitrogen recommendations based on soil health, weather, crop inputs and management practices. Studies show Adapt-N recommendations reduce nitrogen rates compared to farmer practices, lower environmental losses, and do not reduce yields. The goal is to integrate soil health information into nitrogen recommendations to incentivize long-term soil health improvements.position brief #2
Chloride concentrations in rivers in snow-affected urban watersheds are increasing in all seasons, outpacing the rate of urban growth. A study found that 29% of sites examined had chloride levels higher than the EPA chronic criteria on over 100 days per year. Increased road salt application due to expansion of impervious surfaces and de-icing is causing chloride to accumulate and be slowly released throughout the year. From the 1940s to 1980s, annual road salt usage doubled from 9.6 to 19.6 million metric tons and has increased 3.9% per year since while urban area grew 2.8% annually. Recommendations include training workers, pre-wetting salt, calibrated spreaders, and considering alternative de

The document examines the quality of irrigation water used in the South-East El-Kantara Canal in North Sinai, Egypt, which receives a 1:1 mixture of agricultural wastewater and Nile freshwater. Water samples were collected monthly from 6 locations along the canal from 2007-2014 and analyzed for parameters including salinity, pathogens, nutrients, oxygen levels. The results show that several parameters such as BOD, NO3, and fecal coliform levels exceeded Egyptian standards. The study concludes the water quality restricts use for irrigating some crops and recommends pretreating the agricultural wastewater, such as with aerated lagoons, before mixing with Nile water to satisfy standards.
Data exchange in Transboundary Waters
With water resource variability rapidly growing and demands on water resources increasing, using digital tools and innovative, inclusive institutional approaches to address both challenges is becoming ever-more urgent.
A recent workshop under the CGIAR Research Program on Water, Land and Ecosystems (Research Area on Variability, Risks and Competing Uses), showcased research outputs in two activity clusters - Managing Resource Variability and Risks for Resilience and Managing Competing Uses and Trade-offs - that can help increase water security for poor rural users while also improving food security and rural livelihoods.

This study aims to develop guidelines for drought preparedness and mitigation in the Skunk Creek Watershed in South Dakota. Researchers used the SWAT model to simulate water levels and identify drought triggers. Sensors were installed to monitor soil moisture, temperature, and tension. The SWAT model was calibrated and validated against historical stream discharge data. Preliminary results found the model simulated discharge reasonably well. Future work will use the model to estimate climate change impacts on water balance and identify drought-prone areas to inform water management practices and conservation. The overall goal is to develop a watershed-based plan to ameliorate impacts of drought on agriculture.Signpost Seminar: Water quality - national problems, local solutions
Signpost Seminar: Water quality - national problems, local solutionsEnvironmental Protection Agency, Ireland
This document discusses water quality issues in Ireland and solutions to address them. National water quality monitoring data shows 47% of rivers and 62% of estuaries are in unsatisfactory condition. The two most widespread problems are excess nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus), with phosphorus and sediment issues impacting 60% of waters needing measures. Maps have been created to identify critical source areas for phosphorus and nitrogen losses from agriculture to target remediation efforts. Measures proposed include riparian buffers, wetlands, and nutrient management plans to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus at their sources and intercept transport pathways.Impacts of On-site Wastewater Treatment Systems on Water Quality and Quantity...

This study examined the impact of on-site wastewater treatment (septic) systems on water quality and quantity in urbanizing watersheds in metro Atlanta, GA. The results showed that septic system density above 100 units/km2 was correlated with higher levels of fecal indicator bacteria and nitrates in streams, especially in spring. A survey found residents were willing to pay to upgrade septic systems to improve water quality. The study concluded that septic systems increase total watershed water yield, especially during dry periods, and recommended education programs to increase awareness of septic system impacts.OPERATIONAL DRAINAGE WATER REUSE GUIDELINES

This document summarizes a collaborative modeling approach being used to assess the climate resilience of snow-fed river systems in arid lands. It describes research on the Truckee-Carson River system involving development of climate scenarios, hydrologic modeling, and surveys of water managers and agricultural producers. Preliminary results from an organizational survey found that drought is a major concern and that temperature increases challenge water supplies, agriculture, ecosystems and the economy. The research aims to integrate stakeholder input, climate and hydrologic models, and agent-based modeling to better understand impacts and policy adaptations under climate change uncertainties.IRJET- Assessing Spatial Variability of Groundwater Quality using GIS Tec...
This document summarizes a study that assessed the spatial variability of groundwater quality in Nadia District, West Bengal using GIS techniques. Groundwater quality data was collected from 166 sites during pre- and post-monsoon periods. Spatial distribution maps of water quality parameters were created using inverse distance weighting and natural neighbor interpolation techniques. A water quality index (WQI) map was also developed by integrating six key parameters and assigning weights based on drinking water standards. The WQI for most blocks in the district ranged from very poor to poor quality in both monsoon periods. Due to declining drinking water quality, efforts are needed to improve public health awareness at the household level.

This document summarizes a study on watershed management practices and hydrological modeling under changing climatic conditions in Mali and Ghana. The study analyzed shallow well water levels across a 57km2 watershed in Mali, finding water could be accessed within 12.5m in the dry season and 8m in the rainy season. Runoff was significantly reduced on farm fields using soil and water conservation practices. Regional temperature and rainfall trends indicate increased evaporative demands requiring improved water resource management. The study uses water balance modeling from farm to watershed scales to evaluate natural resource management impacts and identify relevant practices for different agro-ecological zones.

This document summarizes a study on the encroachment of wetlands in Assam, India. It analyzes changes in area of several wetlands from 1987-2014 using remote sensing. The Morikolong Beel decreased from 80.49 hectares in 1987 to 57.80 hectares in 2014 due to encroachment. The Deepor Beel decreased from 961.7 hectares in 1990 to 356.3 hectares in 2007. The Silsako and Numalijalah wetlands also significantly decreased in area between 1912-2001. The document concludes that wetlands in Assam are under serious threat from siltation, flooding, and human activities like encroachment and calls for conservation
Constructed wetland management
This document provides an overview of constructed wetlands. It discusses that constructed wetlands are man-made wastewater treatment systems that use natural processes involving wetland vegetation, soils, and their associated microbial assemblages to improve water quality. They are used for secondary or tertiary treatment through filtration, sedimentation and biological degradation. The document outlines the types of constructed wetlands, their key components including a waterproof basin, filter media and plants, and how they function to remove organic matter, suspended solids, pathogens, nitrogen and phosphorus through various microbial and plant-mediated processes.
Remote Sensing And GIS Application In Wetland Mapping
This document discusses remote sensing and GIS applications for wetland mapping. It begins by defining wetlands and describing some of the largest in the world. The three main criteria for identifying wetlands - hydric soils, hydrophytic vegetation, and hydrology - are introduced. Remote sensing data, including IRS P6 LISS III imagery, is used to map wetlands in Karnataka, India. Indices like NDWI, MNDWI, NDVI, and NDPI are calculated from the multi-spectral bands to identify wetland areas. GIS is then used to analyze and interpret the remote sensing data spatially and temporally. Final maps are produced showing the distribution and types of wetlands identified in India and specifically
Remote Sensing PPT
This document provides an overview of remote sensing through a seminar presented by Ashwathy Babu Paul. It defines remote sensing as obtaining information about an object without physical contact through electromagnetic radiation. It describes the basic components and process of remote sensing systems including energy sources, sensor recording, transmission and processing. Various sensors and platforms are discussed along with advantages and applications in fields like agriculture, natural resource management, national security, geology, meteorology, and more. Challenges are addressed but advantages of remote sensing are said to far outweigh these.
Conservation of wetlands ecosystem
Wetlands provide many important ecological services such as regulating water regimes, sequestering carbon, and serving as biodiversity hotspots. They also help mitigate natural hazards like floods and storms. However, wetlands worldwide are being degraded and lost due to drainage and encroachment. Effective conservation requires public education on the value of wetlands and intergovernmental cooperation under treaties like the Ramsar Convention. The document outlines the types and functions of different wetland ecosystems and their importance for wildlife habitat and plant communities.

Source reduction for urban stormwater
This document discusses limitations of end-of-pipe stormwater management and examines opportunities to take a more integrated biogeochemical approach. It highlights that structural BMPs have variable performance and high costs, and don't effectively treat all pollutants. Taking a multiple barrier approach moving treatment upstream through low impact design and source control can help address these issues. Understanding biogeochemical processes involved in urban watersheds provides insights on improving stormwater management strategies.
Land degradation final
Land is a complex, multi-component natural entity that becomes a resource base when used for a specific purpose or purposes. Land degradation is a concept in which the value of the biophysical environment is affected by one or more combination of natural and human-induced processes acting upon the land. It is a temporary or Permanent decline in the productive capacity of land. It is also the reduction in the capability of the land to produce benefits from a particular land use under a specified form of land management. Major forms of land degradation are water and wind erosion, desertification and chemical erosion. Urban expansion is also a form of land degradation. Negative effects of land degradation affect heavily on environment and economy which is a cause of grave concern. Land degradation has significant costs, particularly in developing countries (Rosegrant and Ringler, 1991). It does not only reduces farm productivity affecting livelihood and regional economies, it also leads to reduced biodiversity. Land degradation in most developing countries is becoming a major constraint to future growth and development. About 40-75% of the world’s agricultural land’s productivity is reduced due to land degradation (IFPRI, 2001). Increased support for research and extension to increase crop yields is crucial to meeting the needs of a growing human population for food, biomass energy, fiber, and timber. There is a need to increase support to biodiversity preservation by alleviating pressure to convert remaining natural habitat to croplands. There is a need for more public investments to support SLM to slow land degradation.
Soil erosion and water storage
The document summarizes a study on the impacts of soil erosion on flooding in Iowa watersheds. The researchers found that:
1) Soil erosion over the past 200 years has reduced Iowa's water storage capacity in cropland topsoil by 1/3, at a rate 10 times faster than topsoil formation.
2) Modeling different erosion scenarios showed losses in available water storage from the A-horizon soil layer of hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of cubic meters across four Iowa watersheds over 10 years.
3) These water storage losses equate to fractions of days to a few days of average daily river discharge, and minutes to tenths of days of peak flood discharge.
Submerged soil chemistry and management
This document summarizes the key impacts and management of waterlogged soils. It notes that waterlogging can lead to oxygen depletion, increased bulk density, lowered redox potential, and nutrient toxicity issues like iron and manganese. Crop yields are reduced due to waterlogging, with losses ranging from 40-77% depending on the crop. Management strategies include land leveling, controlled irrigation, use of tolerant crop varieties, raised bed planting, drainage systems, and establishing deep-rooted plants for bioremediation. Rice cultivation can help reclaim waterlogged soils due to its extensive root system and ability to dilute soil salinity.
Comparison of California Statewide Hydromodification Issues
The document discusses hydromodification and results from analyzing the sizing of best management practices (BMPs) like detention and infiltration basins across different climate zones. Regional differences in climate and soil types can impact required BMP sizing, with northern zones generally requiring larger BMPs than central or southern zones. While simple regional sizing criteria are possible, more than just volume is needed to properly size BMPs for hydromodification.

Comp Plan 2020 Public Input Summary
The document discusses water resource issues in the Coon Creek Watershed District. It provides background on the district and outlines its mission to manage water resources. Key issues discussed include declining water supply from groundwater and surface water sources. Changing precipitation patterns are exacerbating supply concerns. Demand for water is increasing for uses like drainage and recreation. Flood control and water quality are also indirect demand issues. The document classes water resource issues as serious, deteriorating, or sustainable based on the threat level and availability of management strategies. Input is sought from attendees on resource needs and management expectations going forward.
#13 - Comp Plan - Trends & Implications -continued
The document discusses various demands on and trends affecting mining, recreation, public lands, flood control, groundwater recharge, and water quality in a watershed district. Mining is expected to use alternative water sources and change pumping rates to reduce impacts. Recreation is increasing but management of lands and water remains limited. Public land uses impact water quality and management challenges may rise. Flood control focuses on maintaining existing profiles but climate change could increase atypical floods. Groundwater recharge may become a larger district focus. Water quality faces threats from development and storms, and portions of watersheds lack needed infrastructure.
#12 - Comp Plan - Trends & Implications
1) Population in the area is projected to increase by 14% by 2020 and housing is projected to increase by 24%. This will result in increased demand for services like water management and recreation.
2) Agricultural and vacant land is expected to decrease by 7,500 acres by 2020, increasing impervious surfaces. This will impact drainage and water quality.
3) Drainage demands are expected to decrease slightly as drainage dependent lands decrease by 642 acres. Maintenance standards for drainage systems will need reevaluation and inspection of critical reaches will be important.
#10 - Comp Plan - Wildlife Management
The document summarizes wildlife and fisheries in a watershed district. It found that habitats and populations were generally in good condition, though endangered, threatened, and special concern species continue to increase, concentrated in the eastern portion. It identifies rare plant communities that require awareness of habitat needs for critical species, and habitat management plans may be developed.
#9 Comp Plan Mission & Commitments Review
The Coon Creek Watershed District has statutory and regulatory obligations to administer activities affecting water resources, regulate such activities, plan projects, operate and maintain infrastructure, and inform and educate the public. Its mission is to manage groundwater and surface water, maintain hydrologic balance, prevent property damage, protect water quality, and provide for public safety, enjoyment, and resource preservation and enhancement through programs in administration, development regulation, operations and maintenance, planning, information/education, and research/monitoring. The District carries out its business through budgets, staff, land management, provision of services, contracts, cooperation, and collaborative efforts.
#8- Comp Plan - Water Quality
This document reviews water quality data from 7 studies in the Coon Creek watershed. It found high levels of suspended solids that exceeded standards once, as well as impaired dissolved oxygen levels in Sand Creek. Trend analyses showed impairments for turbidity, total suspended solids, and phosphorus. The lower portion of the watershed lacks infrastructure needed for water quality improvements.
#7 - Comp Plan - Lakes
The document summarizes water quality trends in three lakes - Crooked, Ham, and Netta - located within the Coon Creek Watershed District in Minnesota. It finds that while Crooked Lake has seen significant improvements in water quality from 1983 to 2009, Ham and Netta Lakes have shown no clear trends over the long term for parameters like total phosphorus and chlorophyll-a. Declining water levels pose the biggest threat and risk lower levels that could negatively impact fish and water quality. Water levels are expected to continue dropping with potentially more invasive species issues.
#6 - Comp Plan - Surface Water
This document summarizes information about surface water in the Coon Creek watershed district. It reviews hydrologic budget data and stream flow variation over 100 years. Analysis of rainfall data from 1985, 1999, and 2009 shows that less than 1 inch of rain did not cause much runoff in 1985, the fate of 1 inch of rain needs to be managed now, and water levels increase substantially with each inch of rain currently. Graphs show increasing water levels over time at three locations. The implications are that the lower watershed remains prone to flooding and shows some independence from the rest of the watershed. Increased erosion and water quality issues are expected in the lower watershed going forward.
#2- Comp Plan - Issues input
This document summarizes discussions from a meeting regarding a 2010-2020 comprehensive water management plan. It identifies state and local agencies in attendance and their initial issues and concerns. These include balancing water quantity and quality, challenges from physical resource limitations, and effectively enforcing regulations. The document also outlines projected rule and permit revisions, program requirements, and a proposed implementation schedule for the comprehensive plan.
#4- Comp Plan - Evaporation & Evapotranspiration
This document discusses trends in evapotranspiration and evaporation in the Coon Creek Watershed District over the past decade. It shows that excess precipitation from evapotranspiration and evaporation has decreased based on Thornthwaite and evaporation coefficient models. This decrease in excess precipitation is expected to result in less natural recharge and loss of lakes and wetlands in the watershed district.
#3 - Comp Plan - Climate & Precipitation
The document outlines a plan to update the climate and precipitation chapter of the Coon Creek Watershed District's 2020 Comprehensive Plan. It recommends analyzing updated data sets to bring statistics and trends up to date for the district, reviewing implications of changes in precipitation, and considering increasing volume management requirements to 1.5 inches to address expectations of changes in precipitation volume and support surficial aquifer and water quality management needs.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
