Oct 29, 2008 News Potsdam-Institut für Klimafolgenforschung Humans are increasingly altering the amount of water that runs from the land to the sea or inland waters. Calculations with a global vegetation and hydrology model indicate that precipitation had the largest impact on global river discharge over the 20th century. Regionally, however, discharge varied according to factors such as land use change and irrigation practices, temperature, and the concentration of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2), researchers from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) report in the journal "Geophysical Research Letters". The impact of these mainly anthropogenically driven factors on discharge and the availability of water for human use is expected to grow in the future.

Oct 30, 2007 News TT UK In the old historical part of Warsaw in Poland a ND 400 mm clay pipe required replacement over a length of 30m. Inspection of the mains by the Warsaw water and sewerage company showed regular sand on the bottom of the mains, so that it was apparent that the main was fractured and debris was falling to the bottom of the pipe. This presented a permanent problem of road surface subsidence – an imminent danger to the public. The problem could have been confirmed by an internal pipe inspection but this could not take place because the camera simply could not pass through the sand and other debris lying at the bottom of the pipe.
