Assessment of physicochemical properties of water and their seasonal variation in an urban river in Bangladesh

Arafat Rahman, Ishrat Jahanara, Yeasmin Nahar Jolly · 1 Jun 2021

To assess the magnitude of water quality decline in the Turag River of Bangladesh, this study examined the seasonal variation of physicochemical parameters of water, identified potential pollution sources, and clustered the monitoring months with similar characteristics. Water samples were collected in four distinct seasons to evaluate temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration, five-day biochemical…

A simple formula for predicting settling velocity of sediment particles

Song Zhiyao, WU Ting-ting, Fumin Xu et al. · 1 Mar 2008

Based on the general relationship described by Cheng between the drag coefficient and the Reynolds number of a particle, a new relationship between the Reynolds number and a dimensionless particle parameter is proposed. Using a trial-and-error procedure to minimize errors, the coefficients were determined and a formula was developed for predicting the settling velocity of…

Compensation and benefit sharing: Why resettlement policies and practices must be reformed

Michael M. Cernea · 1 Mar 2008

Many public and private sector projects, such as hydropower dams or mines, trigger forced population displacement but fail to resettle people sustainably and instead cause their impoverishment. Social science research has found that one root cause of such failures and of impoverishment is asset dispossession and the insufficient financing of resettlement. Most governments, however, state…

Adsorption of Cr(VI) in wastewater using magnetic multi-wall carbon nanotubes

Zhuo-nan Huang, Xiao-ling Wang, De-suo Yang · 1 Jul 2015

Magnetic multi-wall carbon nanotubes were prepared with wet chemical treatments and characterized by a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). They were used as adsorbents for the removal of Cr(VI) in aqueous solutions. The effects of adsorbent dosage, the concentration of Cr(VI) in aqueous solution, temperature, and pH value on the removal efficiency…

Urban and river flooding: Comparison of flood risk management approaches in the UK and China and an assessment of future knowledge needs

Matteo Rubinato, Andrew Nichols, Yong Peng et al. · 1 Dec 2019

Increased urbanisation, economic growth, and long-term climate variability have made both the UK and China more susceptible to urban and river flooding, putting people and property at increased risk. This paper presents a review of the current flooding challenges that are affecting the UK and China and the actions that each country is undertaking to…

Water Science and Engineering template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Water Science and Engineering format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Water Science and Engineering template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Elsevier format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Water Science and Engineering use?
Water Science and Engineering uses Author–year (Harvard) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', Water Science and Engineering, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Water Science and Engineering?
No. DocuGuru generates the elsarticle LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Elsevier-ready Water Science and Engineering document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Water Science and Engineering template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Water Science and Engineering format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Water Science and Engineering?
Water Science and Engineering is a multidisciplinary journal published by Elsevier. DocuGuru's Water Science and Engineering template matches Elsevier's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Water Science and Engineering PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Water Science and Engineering template (the elsarticle class) that is ready to submit to Elsevier, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
