This may cause the following issues: rising water tables; increased storage of groundwater that may be used for irrigation, municipal, household, and drinking water by pumping from wells; waterlogging and drainage problems in villages, agricultural lands, and along roads - with mostly negative consequences. The increased level of the water ...
Antique Dutch windmills used to pump water into the embanked river to prevent waterlogging of the lowlands behind them. Waterlogging water is the saturation of soil with water. [1] Soil may be regarded as waterlogged when it is nearly saturated with water much of the time such that its air phase is restricted and anaerobic conditions prevail.
Such waterlogging preserves perishable artifacts. Thus, in a site which has been waterlogged since the archaeological horizon was deposited, exceptional insight may be obtained by study of artifacts made of leather, wood, textile or similar materials. 75-90% of the archaeological remains at wetland sites are found to be organic material.
Stream ripping (also called stream recording) is the process of saving data streams to a file. The process is sometimes referred to as destreaming.. Stream ripping is most often referred in the context of saving audio or video from streaming media websites and services such as YouTube outside of the officially-provided means of offline playback (if any) using unsanctioned software and tools.
Waterlogging or water logging may refer to: Waterlogging (agriculture), saturation of the soil by groundwater sufficient to prevent or hinder agriculture; Waterlogging (archeology), the exclusion of air from an archeological site by groundwater, preserving artifacts; Underwater logging, the process of harvesting trees that are submerged under water
The problem of undercounting resonates in the Indian state of Gujarat, the site of a mammoth debacle that was supposed to transform the World Bank’s approach to development and displacement. In 1985, the bank pledged $450 million to finance the Sardar Sarovar dam and canal, the keystone of an effort to turn the Narmada River into a series of ...
Employing almost 44% of India's working population, agriculture is one of the most important occupations in India. Consequently, up to 80% of the groundwater in India is used for irrigation. [37] The Indian Agriculture Institute has been promoting the drip irrigation technology to relieve the water scarcity in India for decades. The technology ...
The game was played on a heavily waterlogged pitch at Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego after torrential rain fell in the build up, with huge sections of standing water affecting the path of the ...
