Especially to rainfall and perhaps runoff or leaching.

leading to increased runoff and evaporation.

(h) Practices for further harvesting runoff on piedmont or in foothills should be introduced to the loess areas for managing watershed, seasonal river and depression areas with runoff afforestation.

The meltwater runoff in western Greenland was so strong that it swept away an important road bridge across the Watson River.

And they harvest rain in many ways.

For example, over 85 of the annual runoff from the Colorado River basin originates as snowmelt.

Their spending loads, loads, to channel that rainwater out into the ocean when it rains and floods as well.

On the land, phosphorus (chemical symbol, P) gradually becomes less available to plants over thousands of years, because it is slowly lost in runoff.

In addition to, I think, doing a beautiful adaptive reuse, they tore up some of the parking spaces, put in bioswales to collect and clean the runoff, put in a lot more sidewalks to connect to the neighborhoods.

So, this is the first device they use in harvesting rain.

(d) Application of the practices for soil conservation, runoff harvest and terrace tillage systems, which occur in the watershed areas on loess and hilly regions facing creeping sands, should be popularized in areas affected by problems of rangeland degradation and soil erosion

This is patterned after the U.S. Senate but each constituency is of (roughly) same size and the system used is two round runoff voting.

Some of the early incorporation of stormwater engineering is evidenced in ancient Greece.

(i) Using efficient irrigation and rainwater harvesting technologies

Representatives of the International Rainwater Harvesting Alliance and the Canton of Geneva also made statements.

And all the rainwater that drops on the Mountain is actually accumulated.

Generally, afforestation and reforestation will serve the useful purpose of preventing floods by slowing down run off as well as curtailing soil erosion.

Watershed restoration would cut losses of natural freshwater availability by slowing down run off and add to natural freshwater availability.

He enumerated coping strategies, such as polyculture, rainwater harvesting, migration, and afforestation.

And it can collect six million gallons of rainwater in one season.

Rainwater collected from the roofs of houses and local institutions can make an important contribution to the availability of drinking water.

People wading through the 'lakes' formed by the rain can also be seen.

They have not enough water on most days and too much to handle when it rains.

In addition to, I think, doing a beautiful adaptive reuse, they tore up some of the parking spaces, put in bioswales to collect and clean the runoff, put in a lot more sidewalks to connect to the neighborhoods.

So every one of our schools have rain water collection systems, very low cost.

So every one of our schools has a rainwater collection system.

A sensitivity analysis shows that the GSBR technology is less sensitive to land price and more sensitive to rain water flow.

Michael Pritchard Okay.

But we use drinking quality water for things that don't really need it (20 of our drinking water is used to flush toilets) while stormwater and water from our showers washing machines and basins goes down the drain, wasted.

Where surface shipment is the most economical means of transport, surface shipment shall normally be authorized.

Another important point of these sand banks is that when it rains, the rainwater soaks down into the soil. So, it's gone.

Also at the 4th meeting, a statement was made by the representative of the International Rainwater Harvesting Alliance, a non governmental organization.

(we have around 26 bilion litres of stormwater run off every year)

Another important point of these sand banks is that when it rains, the rainwater soaks down into the soil.

D. Air and surface freight

Farmers were still not allowed to use the water of Mas'adah Lake, dig wells or collect water from rain or snow.

Water collected from the ground, sometimes from areas which are especially prepared for this purpose, is called stormwater harvesting.

Presentation of results of the pilot project on the collection of rain water, experiment conducted by UNICEF and the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC)

This rise could be explained by the fact that more people make use of unsafe water sources such as ponds during the rainy season.

In fact they go 15 feet deep, and collect rain water from roof, there is a small pipe, and from their courtyard.

Barefoot technology this was 1986 no engineer, no architect thought of it but we are collecting rainwater from the roofs.

a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are swift in running to mischief,

An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

But tha' isn't. Run off outside an' play with thy rope.

Rainwater harvesting is also widely employed as a relatively low cost option, both for household use and for small scale irrigation.
