Smart water tech: The future of smart cities
Smart water tech: The future of smart cities The United States’ aging water infrastructure is in dire need of an upgrade. Most of the country’s water infrastructure is at least half a century old, and with that comes a host of problems, including frequent leaks and poor water quality. With precious water resources becoming more […]
Heavy metals prediction system in groundwater using online sensor and machine learning for water management: the case of typical industrial park
With the expansion of human industrial activities, heavy metal contamination in groundwater environments has become increasingly severe. Environmental management agencies invest significant financial resources into groundwater monitoring, primarily due to its inherent invisibility. Automatic monitoring is a new way to monitor groundwater, the existing sensors often can only achieve simple indicators, and it is difficult […]
Celebrating World Water Day: Our Commitment to Sustainable Water Practices
Water is essential for all living beings, yet today, 2.2 billion people – 1 in 4 – lack access to safe water. This highlights the urgent need to raise awareness around the importance of fresh water and its sustainable management. Since 1993, March 22 has been observed as World Water Day, a day dedicated to […]

Comparing water quality valuation across probability and non-probability samples
To better manage water resources, it is useful to understand how people value water quality. One way to assess this value is to estimate (WTP) for improved water quality. Stated preference (SP) surveys, which use experiments to quantify WTP, are useful in estimating such values because they are the only method available to estimate non-use […]
