Estimating the Aquifer’s Renewable Water to Mitigate the Challenges of Upcoming Megadrought Events
No full textIn arid and semi-arid regions of the world, the occurrence of prolonged drought events (megadroughts) associated with climate change can seriously affect the balance between water supply and demand, thereby severely increasing the susceptibility of such regions to adverse impacts. In this study, a simple framework is introduced to estimate renewable water volumes (RW) to mitigate the challenges of megadrought events by managing the groundwater resources. The framework connects a weighted annual hydrological drought index (wSPEI) to RW, based on the short time-scale precipitation volume. The proposed framework, which was in a proof-of-concept case study applied to the Neishaboor watershed in the semi-arid part of Iran, showed that developing the weighted drought index can be valuable to estimate RW. The results suggested that the wSPEI, aggregating hydrological drought index (HSPEI) with the time scale k = 5 days and the regional coefficient s = 1.3 can be used to estimate RW with reasonable accuracy (R2 = 0.73, RMSE = 11.5 mm year−1). This indicates that in the Neishaboor watershed, the best estimation of RW can be determined by precipitation volumes (or the lack thereof) falling over 5-day aggregation periods rather than by any other time scales. The accuracy of the relationship was then investigated by cross validation (leave-one-out method). According to the results, the proposed framework performed fairly well for the estimation of RW, with R2 = 0.75 and RMSE = 12.2 mm year−1 for k = 5 days. The Overall agreement between the wSPEI, the RW derived from water balance calculations, and the estimated RW by the proposed framework was also assessed for a period of 34 years. It showed that the annual RW followed closely the wSPEI, indicating a reasonable relationship between wSPEI and the annual RW. Accordingly, the proposed framework is capable to estimate the renewable water of a given watershed for different climate change scenarios.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Water Resource

Report to Cruickshank Trust on Public Education & Food Resilience
No full textFollowing recent localised shortages of specific food-types (e.g. fresh vegetables and eggs in the UK in 2022 & 2023) and high inflation in food prices there is much policy discussion regarding the importance of resilient food systems within the Green Economy in response to current and upcoming climate change, disease outbreaks, and patterns of de-globalisation. Food resilience and its definition is complex (Zurek et al., 2022) and can be tackled in various ways. One approach could involve Local Food Partnerships [eg for England, (UK Government, 2022)]. To this end, during 2022/23, we delivered a programme of public education for different ages in an area of land called the Carse of Gowrie (Tayside) focussing on the history of top-fruit (apples, pear, and plum) production in this area. We aimed to highlight the opportunities that communities have to produce a small amount of their own fruit and related produce using community land. This programme of public education was funded by the Cruickshank Education Trust managed by SRU

Efficient voltage regulation: An RW-ARO optimized cascaded controller approach
Full text linkThis work introduces novel advancements in automatic voltage regulator (AVR) control, addressing key challenges and delivering innovative contributions. The primary motivation lies in enhancing AVR performance to ensure stable and reliable voltage output. A crucial innovation in this work is the introduction of the random walk aided artificial rabbits optimizer (RW-ARO). This novel optimization strategy incorporates a random walk approach, enhancing the efficiency of AVR control schemes. The proposed cascaded RPIDD2-PI controller, fine-tuned using the RW-ARO, stands out as a pioneering approach in the AVR domain. It demonstrates superior stability, faster response times, enhanced robustness, and improved efficiency compared to existing methods. Comparative analyses with established controller approaches reaffirm the exceptional performance of the proposed method. The new approach results in shorter rise times, quicker settling times, and minimal overshoot, highlighting its effectiveness and speed in achieving desired system responses. Moreover, the novel approach attains higher phase and gain margins, showcasing its superior performance in the frequency domain. The disturbance rejection and harmonic analysis are performed in order to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach for potential real-world applications. The latter analyses further cement the superior capability of the proposed approach for the automatic voltage regulation. © 2024 The Author(s
