1. Uncharted Waters : Non-target analysis of disinfection by-products in drinking water
Sammanfattning : Disinfection by-products (DBPs) are potentially toxic compounds formed when drinking water is treated with disinfectants, such as chlorine or chloramine. A large proportion of the exposure to DBPs is still unknown and the health risks observed through epidemiological studies cannot be explained by DBPs known today. LÄS MER
2. Access to water : Rights, obligations and the Bangalore situation
Sammanfattning : The city of Bangalore in southern India is undergoing rapid urbanisation and administrative transition. Its growth puts pressure on the available water sources – being mainly the disputed inter-State River Cauvery and the hard-rock aquifers – with ensuing problems of access. LÄS MER
3. Water Realities and Development Trajectories : Global and Local Agricultural Production Dynamics
Sammanfattning : Water constraints for humans and nature are gaining more and more public attention as a critical environmental dilemma that needs to be addressed. When aquifers and rivers are running dry, the debate refers to an ongoing “world water crisis”. LÄS MER
4. Modelling organic matter dynamics in aquatic systems
Sammanfattning : Organic matter is a small but active part of the global carbon cycle. About one third is stored in the oceans where it has a relatively short residence time. The rest is found in the terrestrial biomass and in the soil. Aquatic systems exchange C02 with the atmosphere. LÄS MER
5. Matter that matters : A study of household routines in a process of changing water and sanitation arrangements
Sammanfattning : Our society changed, but the urban water and sanitation system of today is roughly the same as it was 100 years ago. The system is designed for, developed from and sustained by human activities, and has since its introduction affected household patterns of routine activities. LÄS MER
