  2. Groundwater energy balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwater_energy_balance

    The energy balance of groundwater flow can be applied to flow of groundwater to subsurface drains. [2] The computer program EnDrain [3] compares the outcome of the traditional drain spacing equation, based on Darcy's law together with the continuity equation (i.e. conservation of mass), with the solution obtained by the energy balance and it can be seen that drain spacings are wider in the ...

  3. Water balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_balance

    The law of water balance states that the inflows to any water system or area is equal to its outflows plus change in storage during a time interval. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] In hydrology , a water balance equation can be used to describe the flow of water in and out of a system.

  4. Evapotranspiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evapotranspiration

    The water balance equation relates the change in water stored within the basin (S) to its input and outputs: = In the equation, the change in water stored within the basin (ΔS) is related to precipitation (P) (water going into the basin), and evapotranspiration (ET), streamflow (Q), and groundwater recharge (D) (water leaving the basin). By ...

  5. Water, energy and food security nexus - Wikipedia

    The water, energy and food pillars within this index are equally weighted, thus emphasizing the multi-centric nature of this framework. The WEF Nexus Index should be utilised as an entry point into the underlying pillars, sub-pillars and indicators, and can be utilised in parallel with other quantitative and qualitative water-energy-food nexus ...

    “For the first time in human history, we are pushing the global water cycle out of balance,” said Johan Rockström, co-chair of the Global Commission on the Economics of Water and a report author.

  7. Water-energy nexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-energy_nexus

    Hybrid Sankey diagram of 2011 U.S. interconnected water and energy flows. The water-energy nexus is the relationship between the water used for energy production, [1] including both electricity and sources of fuel such as oil and natural gas, and the energy consumed to extract, purify, deliver, heat/cool, treat and dispose of water (and wastewater) sometimes referred to as the energy intensity ...

  8. Earth's energy budget - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_energy_budget

    Earth's energy budget (or Earth's energy balance) is the balance between the energy that Earth receives from the Sun and the energy the Earth loses back into outer space. Smaller energy sources, such as Earth's internal heat, are taken into consideration, but make a tiny contribution compared to solar energy.

  9. Energy balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_balance

    Energy balance (energy economics), verification and analysis of emergence, transformation and use of energy sources within an economic zone Energy economics , where the energy balance of a country is an aggregate presentation of all human activities related to energy, except for natural and biological processes
