Already today, you can visit _progress | M via http://progress-m.blogspot.ch . There are many improvements compared with _kt75 | mirror, e.g.: full responsive design panel/mobile reader mode (recommended if you want to get the full content of an article redesigned download area ( http://progress-m.blogspot.ch/p/downloads.html ) redesigned fonts to facilitate readability There are some more features currently still in the development mode, therefore they are not yet available, e.g.: embedding related content (via the content bar in the panel£/mobile reader mode) opportunities to allow for 3rd party actions (user customisation) Overall the development of _progress | M is part an entire blog development package. Other parts of development include: u.pid

note The present issue of the Quarterly Notes on Sustainable Water Management (Q01/2015) – Groundwater Management – concentrates exclusively on issues like aquifer replenishment/recharge, energetic as well as geo-political issues of groundwater access and use as well as other effects on groundwater, for example by the mining industry. The key topics addressed by the articles comprise among others: •    Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) •    Forecasting ground water levels •    Aquifer Protection •    Combined operation of wind mills and ground water pumping •    Effects of heat pump systems on groundwater •    Economic effects of aquifer recharge •    Managing conflicts in context of aquifer usage All articles are fully referenced at the end of this issue of the Notes and can be accessed online. In addition this issue of the Quarterly Notes on Sustainable Water Management  provides a comprehensive status overview on the functional and graphical re-de

In continuation of the successful publication of the Quarterly Notes on Sustainable Water Management the current issue concentrates on a broad range of topics including land subsidence, implications of climate change on ground water regimes, technical developments in the small hydro power sector, etc. Geographically, the Notes once more focus on regions exposed to complicated water supply conditions: Middle-East and Asia. A number of publications tackle the named issues in detail and provide cutting-edge insights on present developments. An important, because seldom considered, region represents the Horn of Africa and the water supply issues encountered there. A comprehensive overview is provided by a dedicated report. As always all reprints are completely refere

This release of the Notes comes along with a substantial diversification in terms of content. As with this issue the section 'Energy' is inserted immediately after the section 'Technology'. By this, it is intended to emphasise and consider the importance of water as an important energy carrier. Thematically, this issue concentrates on two highly sensitive issues affecting sustainable water management: the extraction of natural gas and crude oil by measn of hydraulic fracking on the one hand and the accounting of virtual water (especially with regarding to trading and agriculture) on the other hand. Both topics pose severe challenges. Whereas the former is often criticised to affect the natural water balance, in particular the mechanisms of the groun

First of all and as a consequential step to consistently and consequentially integrate the individual project elements into the _kt75 | project, the Notes – originally the Quarterly Notes on Sustainable Water Management - have been renamed to _kt75 | notes (on genuine sustainable development). Despite a different name, the key intention to provide recent and comprehensive sustainability information in a compact way remains the same. Accordingly, the present issue addresses topics like: Water and Power Supply Networks Oil Pipeline Projects (Keystone XL) Nuclear Power (Decommissioning in context of the ‘energy turnaround’) etc. More details about the _kt75 | notes are provided in the News section of this issue. Secondly, the technical update of the web-site ( http:
