ADECAGUA’s Online Technical Conference on new EU regulations
In July 2020, ADECAGUA’s Online Technical Conference on the European Regulation for the Reuse of Water for Agricultural Use was broadcast by iAgua. The event gave a platform for discussion of views on the new water reuse regulations. The event featured senior representatives from European, national and regional Public Administrations, user associations and companies responsible for the construction and operation of water purification and regeneration plants.
The event was closed by Antonio Yañez, president of the Tagus Hydrographic Confederation, who concluded the day by providing the vision from the Basin Organization: “From the Tagus Hydrographic Confederation we see this situation as an opportunity to promote reuse again in the field. of our Hydrographic Demarcation ”and pointed out that since 1998 promoting the use of reclaimed water:“ The Tagus Hydrographic Confederation was a pioneer at the national level given that it established a regulatory framework prior to the 2007 decree through the 1998 Basin Hydrological Plan”.

New Nature Water Journal Launched to Tackle Water Crisis
As climate-related crises go, the issues of water stress and scarcity is undeniably one that needs to be addressed with a particular sense of urgency. Figures show that approximately two billion people currently lack access to safe drinking water, while around 1.7 billion lack access to basic sanitation services, all of which lead to hundreds of thousands preventable deaths every year. Ensuring availability and sustainable management of water is, in fact, the sixth United Nations Sustainable Development Goal...

Four countries, one river, one data platform, one voice
The Mekong River is the third largest river in Asia, originating in the Tibetan Plateau and running through China, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. Millions of people rely on the river for transport, fishing, agriculture, and more recently hydropower. Protecting this water and promoting collaborative sustainable use of the river is vital to the peace and prosperity of the region. The Mekong River Commission Secretariat (MRCS) is an intergovernmental organization that is tasked with providing the...

Using satellites to track groundwater depletion in California
Researchers have pioneered the use of a tool that can track the loss of groundwater in California`s Central Valley by measuring how much the Earth is sinking. Home to one of the largest groundwater basins in the western United States, the Central Valley supplies about one-fifth of the nation`s groundwater demand, a large part of which is used to provide crop irrigation and aid agricultural production. The same area also accounts for about 75% of the region`s subsidence—the scientific term for the gradual...

‘Inadequate’ Water Access for 5 Billion By 2050
The first State of Global Water Resources report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), published at the end of November, has revealed that large parts of the world saw drier than normal conditions last year… and it is now expected that over five billion people will face inadequate access to water at least one month per year by 2050. In 2021, precipitation patterns were influenced by climate change and La Nina (where surface ocean waters are cooled along the tropical west coast of South...

Vista Clara, ConeTec, GeoProbe and Georgia Tech Researchers Partner to Perform CPT-deployed NMR Measurements in Mine Tailings
Vista Clara, ConeTec, Geoprobe and Georgia Tech researchers recently partnered to deploy a Vista Clara Dart Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) probe via a cone penetrometer test (CPT) rig to measure water content and porosity in a mine tailings facility. Vista Clara geophysicists collected CPT-NMR logs to depths of 75ft in tailings material at the mine site. Additionally, they logged NMR in an adjacent cased hole using a wireline-based Javelin system for comparison and validation of NMR data collected using direct...
