TL;DR: In this paper, the status of productivity, energy consumption, and water production costs of different solar-based water treatment technologies are reviewed, and the real world applicability as well as technical and economic feasibility is evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper, an innovative flood control scheme (IFCS) is applied to Dongting Lake (the second largest freshwater lake in China) to alleviate flood disasters, and the case study reveals that after applying IFCS, the hydraulic gates play a very important role in floodwater regulation and further study should be conducted to find the optimized operation for each gate in the flood control system system.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined an innovative coastal reservoir (CR) technique as a feasible solution for flood adaptation and mitigation in the Brisbane River Estuary (BRE), Australia, which is vulnerable to coastal flooding and demonstrated that the innovative use of a CR could considerably decrease the overall flood peak and lessen flood severity in the coastal city of Brisbane.

TL;DR: In this article, a modified version of the log-law was proposed to estimate the velocity contours in straight and smooth channel flows, where the global shear velocities (gRS) 0.5 and (ghS)0.5 are used to normalize the measured velocity u and its distance y.

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive investigation of velocity distribution is presented, and the log law is re-examined using experimental data from a smooth uniform open channel flow, where a Laser Doppler Velocimetry system was used to measure velocity profiles at the centre of the channel.
