The study investigated an artificial neural network (ANN) model for calculating ET for various agro-climatic regions of India. Sensitivity analysis showed that the overall average change in ET0 values for 25% change in the climatic variables were 18, 16, 14, 7, 5, and 4%, respectively, for Tmax, RHmean, Rn, wind speed, Tmin, and sunshine hours. The dominant climatic variables were identified from the principal component analysis (PCA) and ET0 was computed using an ANN with dominant climatic variables. The ANN architecture with backpropagation technique had one hidden layer and neurons ranging from 10 to 30 for all climatic variables and from 5 to 10 for PCA variables. The new ET models were statistically compared with Penman–Monteith ET estimate, and found reliable. PCA variables guaranteed an estimate of ET0 accounting for 98% of the variability. The average values of coefficient of determination, standard error of estimate, and percentage efficiency were observed as 0.96, 0.24, and 94%, respectively.","PeriodicalId":34693,"journal":{"name":"AQUA-Water Infrastructure Ecosystems and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89392413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A time series is a collection of observations of a variable taken at regular intervals of time. A forecast, on the other hand, is simply a calculation of what happens in the future of the variable of interest based on past information under the assumption that the pattern followed in the past would continue in the future also. This work will aim at obtaining forecasting models for the time series dataset using conventional models and computational models. Varanasi City's annual climate data for a total of 113 years (1906–2018) will be used for the analysis. Initially, the individual model will be considered and used for forecasting. Later, hybrid models will be considered and a comparison between individual models and hybrid models would be obtained. The individual statistical models to be considered are moving average, exponential smoothing with one parameter, and the classical model autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA).

Governments, international organizations, and other organizations are contributing to the development of water supply and sanitation systems. Water supply and sanitation challenges are linked to climate change effects and the quest for climate-resilient development. This paper evaluates the current challenges in water supply and sanitation development in developing countries and infrastructure resilience. The research is based on the data collected throughout the practical development task. Some of the findings were the climate change effect and temporary adaptation mechanisms, such as intermittent supply causing further pressure variation and water loss in the system. Resilient water supply and sanitation development require an integrated approach based on practical experiences, the latest technological development in water supply and sanitation system operation and management tools, and climate change adaptation. A seamless understanding of engineering, management, and technology is required for the development and management of water supply and sanitation systems. Dispersed skills may be available that were not effective at this time, which calls for a different approach to training provision and skill development as a package on design, management, and recent technological support.","PeriodicalId":34693,"journal":{"name":"AQUA-Water Infrastructure Ecosystems and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77592487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study uses different data preprocessing techniques to deal with complex data and extract hidden features from the stream time series. In the next step, the decomposed time series were used, as input data, to the artificial neural network (ANN) model for streamflow modeling and forecasting. The preprocessors employed, including discrete wavelet transform (DWT), empirical mode decomposition (EMD), complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN), successive variational mode decomposition (SVMD), and multi-filter of the smoothing (MFS). These preprocessors were used in hybrid with the ANN model to forecast the daily streamflow. In general, the results showed that the optimal performance of hybrid models has two basic steps. The first step is choosing a suitable approach to utilizing the input data to the model. The second step is to use the appropriate preprocessor. Overall, the results show that the MFS-ANN model in short-term forecasting and the SVMD-ANN model in long-term forecasting performed better than other hybrid models.","PeriodicalId":34693,"journal":{"name":"AQUA-Water Infrastructure Ecosystems and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87379767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, the monthly precipitation data from 1964 to 2013 (about 50 years) of the Jodhpur district in the drought-prone Rajasthan state of India was used to derive the effective drought index (EDI). The machine learning models hybridized with evolutionary optimizers such as the genetic algorithm adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (GA-ANFIS) and particle swarm optimization ANFIS (PSO-ANFIS) were used in addition to the generalized regression neural network (GRNN) to predict the EDI index. Using the partial autocorrelation function (PACF), models for forecasting the monthly EDI were constructed with 2-, 3- and 5-input combinations to evaluate their outcomes based on various performance indices. The results of the different combination models were compared. With reference to 2-input and 3-input combination models, both GA-ANFIS and PSO-ANFIS show better performance results with R2 = 0.75, while among the models with 5-input combination, GA-ANFIS depicts better performance results compared to other models with R2 = 0.78. The results are presented suitably with the aid of scatter plots, Taylor's diagram and violin plots.

Based on the strategy of simultaneous removal of protons to immobilize AsO43−, a monodispersed porous pinecone-like Mg(OH)2 (PLMH) was prepared via a facile and environmentally friendly ultrasound-assisted precipitation route for deep As(V) removal. The PLMH presents a porous and stable framework structure formed by crossed lamellae, and the As(V) solution can be completely immersed inside, which gives a ‘surface effect’ inside the microsphere and makes the As(V) capture performance much higher than the general adsorbents by the removal of protons to immobilize AsO43−. In addition, the PLMH has an extremely wide pH applicability range (pH 3–12), special pH effects, and symmetry phenomena. These performances indicate that the PLMH can be a good candidate for the treatment of real arsenic industrial wastewater.","PeriodicalId":34693,"journal":{"name":"AQUA-Water Infrastructure Ecosystems and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87010033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This problem becomes severe during the lean period of the river (i.e. from February/March to June/July). To reduce the burden on STPs, sewage can be treated and filtered in a naturally occurring sand bed at the convex bank side of the river. In the present study, a 7-km stretch of the sand bed of River Ganga at Varanasi has been selected. This stretch is divided into three zones: entrance, middle, and exit zones. The objective of this research is to assess the filtration potential of selected sections in respective zones and to find out the most suitable zone, out of the three, for wastewater filtration. Seven basic parameters such as dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, salinity, pH, and temperature were measured before and after filtration, through the sand bed of the three zones of River Ganga. Of the three selected zones of the river bend, filtration length and the amount of available sand were found to be maximum in the middle zone. Experimental results and survey work show that the sand bed in the middle zone of the river bend is best suited for wastewater disposal and filtration.","PeriodicalId":34693,"journal":{"name":"AQUA-Water Infrastructure Ecosystems and Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79887740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
