Abstract The elements of the water balance, namely precipitation, runoff, evapo-transpiration, and storage change, their interaction and special attributes in the mountains are presented using the example of the European Alps, with particular reference to Switzerland. Strong differentiation in the alpine climate over time and space exerts a significant influence on the water cycle. This chapter therefore discusses each of the elements of the water balance with particular reference to the influence of mountains and their measurement, as well as the spatial differentiation characteristics. The analysis of the water balance is accompanied by a discussion on the attributes and differences at different altimdes and in different climatic regions. Finally, the importance of alpine water resources for water supplies in the adjacent lowlands is examined.

Abstract. Three quarters of the earth s surface is covered by water and it is not surprising that water serves as ultimate sink for most anthropogenic chemicals. Study of the sources, reactions, transport, effects and fates of chemicals in the water is very important for the water resources protection. In this paper the main properties of water as a medium for many chemicals as well as the most important chemical processes that occur are discussed. The behavior of pesticides, petroleum and related hydrocarbons in water is also discussed. 

IFOAM principles advocate the promotion of healthy use and proper care of water, water resources and all life therein, but this remains largely unspecified in terms of measurable standards. While the IFOAM principles of organic agriculture cited above would direct organic farmers not to over-abstract water, there is little obvious evidence of clear definitions of these terms. For example. 

ABSTRACT This paper addressed the impacts of environmental factors on the storage of semi-active records in the Sultanate of Oman. To this effect, the measurements of indoor environmental parameters were conducted in documents storage buildings of the Ministry of Manpower, and the Ministry of Municipalities and Water Resources. The recorded measurements were then compared with the available international standards/guidelines. The results indicated that most of the environmental factors inside these two buildings were found not within the stipulated standards. 

ABSTRACT Yongjiang River is the main water resource of live and industry of Nanning city, and the environmental quality of its basin relates to the success of ASEAN Expo, the economic development and social stability of Nanning city. In this article, we summarize the research methods and contents about the environmental risk of Yongjiang River basin and then we put forward some opinions for the environmental quality control.
