  • Water Quality Management in china the case of the huai river basin
    International Journal of Water Resources Development, 2011
    Co-Authors: Jun Xia, Yongyong Zhang, Chesheng Zhan
    Abstract:

    This paper addresses the importance of Water Quality Management and the impacts of Water pollution control and Water development projects. The case study of the Huai River Basin is an example of the major challenges on Water Quality Management that China is facing, and why Water Quality Management will play a key role on its sustainable use and Management. Three urgent issues for the Huai River Basin are identified: Water and ecosystem interactions on the river system due to the impacts of increasing pollution and Water development projects; comprehensive assessment on impact of dams and sluices on changes of river flow regimes, Water Quality and ecosystems; and improvement of Water Quality, and the restoration of river ecosystems through state-of-the-art environmental monitoring and integrated Water Management practices.

  • Barriers to sustainable Water-Quality Management
    Journal of environmental management, 2001
    Co-Authors: Guohe Huang, Jun Xia
    Abstract:

    Due to the pressures of increasing population and developing economy all over the world, the present situation of Water-Quality Management is far from satisfactory. To enhance sustainability of Water-Quality-Management systems, in-depth research of the related barriers and the relevant mitigation approaches is desired. In this paper, recent developments, advancements, challenges, and barriers associated with practices of Water-Quality Management were analyzed. A number of related methodologies, applications, and policy considerations were examined. Issues of information support, technology development, system integration, and policy implementation were discussed. Perspectives of sustainable Water-Quality Management in the twenty-first century were investigated, demonstrating many demanding areas for enhanced research efforts, including issues of data availability and reliability, concerns in system complexity and methodology validity, limitations of computer techniques, usefulness of research outputs, difficulties in policy implementation, and necessity of training programs.

  • Ecotechnological models for reservoir Water Quality Management
    Ecological Modelling, 1994
    Co-Authors: Milan Straskraba
    Abstract:

    Abstract The notion of ecotechnology as the use of technological means for ecosystem Management in a way minimizing the costs and damages caused to the global environment is specified in respect to reservoir Water Quality Management. Mathematical models aimed at or with possible use to solving reservoir Water Quality problems, particularly those connected with eutrophication, are reviewed. From the different types of model available for use in Management, the predictive and optimization type models are stressed. The models are divided according to whether the options they consider relate to the Watershed, to the reservoir or to the outflow, respectively. The needs for further development of ecotechnological models are outlined.

  • Research on IFP Method for Water Quality Management
    Advanced Materials Research, 2013
    Co-Authors: Guohe Huang, Wei Sun
    Abstract:

    In this paper, an inexact fuzzy programming (IFP) method has been proposed to deal with nonpoint-resource pollution Water Quality Management issues with interval and fuzzy parameters. In IFP method, parameters presented as interval numbers and fuzzy variables can be reflected simultaneously. This study introduced IFP into Water Quality Management problem, and is also significant to other environmental issues under the similar situation.

  • Robust optimisation for inexact Water Quality Management under uncertainty
    Civil Engineering and Environmental Systems, 2008
    Co-Authors: X.h. Nie, Guohe Huang, D. Wang
    Abstract:

    Abstract An inexact fuzzy Water Management model is proposed and applied to a case study of Water Quality Management within an agricultural system. The model is based on an interval-parameter fuzzy robust programming approach such that it can directly communicate uncertainties into the optimisation process and into the resulting solution by representing model parameters as interval numbers and/or fuzzy membership functions, and effectively handle highly uncertain information for the lower and upper bounds of interval parameters by introducing the concept of fuzzy boundary interval. Consequently, robustness of the optimisation process and the solution can be enhanced. Results of the case study indicate that useful solutions can be obtained to plan agricultural activities in the Water Quality Management system. These solutions reflect a compromise between the optimality and stability of the study system: willingness to accept low agricultural income will guarantee system stability; however, a desire to acqu...

  • object oriented modeling approach to surface Water Quality Management
    Environmental Modelling and Software, 2006
    Co-Authors: Amin Elshorbagy, Lindell Ormsbee
    Abstract:

    The lack of sufficient Water Quality data in many places hinders the efforts of surface Water Quality modeling, and therefore affects the process of Water Quality Management. In this paper, the potential of an object-oriented simulation environment for surface Water Quality Management, based on the concepts of system dynamics (OO-SD), is discussed. The characteristics, along with a brief explanation, of the OO-SD approach are provided. A case study on the use of the OO-SD modeling approach for surface Water Quality Management in southeastern Kentucky, USA, is described to highlight key features of the approach. In a later section, advantages and present shortcomings of the OO-SD approach to model hydrologic systems are discussed. The potential use of the proposed approach, especially in data-poor conditions, and the challenges that lie ahead of hydrologists to fully exploit such a modeling approach are identified.
