Soil Erosion Research - University of Zambia - Case Study

Description: A SediMeter was deployed in this water reservoir in order to collect data on the timing and amount of sedimentation in the water reservoir. Traditional methods include repeat measurements of the bed level, and taking of sediment cores, but they only allow the measurements of the net change between measurements, and are unable to register what exactly happens, and when it happens. In ...

What are Characteristics of good core samplers?

Perpendicular placement: The core sampler must make a vertical or straight entry into sediments to secure a reliably representative cross-section sample. Penetration: It must penetrate the ...

Iron’s mixed blessing for health of oceans

Technology’s answer to climate change in a world in which humans go on releasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has just had another setback. The idea of fertilising the planet’s oceans with iron filings to stimulate green growth and ...

Permeable Composite of Geotextiles and Granular Organoclay

REACTIVE CORE MAT is a patented permeable composite mat consisting of reactive material(s) encapsulated in a non-woven core matrix bound between two geotextiles. The upper geotextile is a needle-punched, non-woven fabric that is heat-laminated to a matrix of nonwoven fibers needle-punched into a woven geotextile. Through its innovative processing, RCM can combine two active materials, if ...
