D.Phil.

South African water resource management policies as well as the country's water law have been under review over the past three to four years. The Water Law Principles, which were established as part of this review process, indicate a commitment to sustainable development of water resources and the protection of an ecological "Reserve". Such policy goals highlight the limitations of conventional water quality management strategies which rely on stressor monitoring and associated regulation of pollution. The concept of an assimilative capacity is central to the conventional water quality management approach. Weaknesses inherent in basing water management on the concept of assimilative capacity are discussed. Response monitoring is proposed as a way of addressing some of the weaknesses. In fact, the inadequate use of biological indicators and techniques in monitoring and evaluating the quality of resources has been identified as a major factor responsible for the continuing decline in the health of natural resource systems. With advances in environmental monitoring over the last decade, it has become clear that biological techniques and protocols need to become part of monitoring in order to allow effective assessment and protection of aquatic resources. One way of incorporating response measures into resource assessment is through the use of toxicological assays. As an example, a toxicological assessment of the environmental risk associated with an organic pesticide (fenthion) is presented. Acute and chronic assays were conducted with a spectrum of test organisms. These toxicological response results provided an ability to predict the ecosystem response that can be expected from certain concentrations of fenthion in the environment. Theoretically, it would be possible to design a risk assessment experiment for every new anthropogenic substance. However, in terms of cost and time, it would not be practically feasible to execute such experiments. To overcome this problem, a method has been developed to derive water quality criteria for toxic substances using existing toxicological data. This provides water resource managers with a readily available set of values to guide them in decision-making. It is demonstrated how available acute and chronic toxicity data can be synthesised into acute and chronic water quality criteria for the protection of aquatic life. As these criteria are intended to extend protection to ecosystems country-wide, they are very conservative by design. Although a set of numeric water quality criteria provides an important tool to water quality managers, the limitations associated with the use of these criteria must be recognised. x Limitations relate either to the design of toxicity experiments or to the use of a chemical-specific approach alone in water resource management. In order to overcome these limitations, three broad supporting technologies are proposed, namely whole effluent toxicity (WET) testing, sitespecific adjustment of water quality criteria, and in-stream biological…

▼ Today billions of people live without access to basic sanitation facilities, and thousands die every week due to diseases caused by fecal contamination associated with improper sanitation. It has thus become crucial for decision makers to have access to relevant and sufficient data to implement appropriate solutions to these problems. The Global Water Pathogen Project http://www.waterpathogens.org/ is dedicated to providing an up-to-date source of data on pathogen reduction associated with different sanitation technologies that are important if the world is to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to health and sanitation provision. In this research, a subset of the Global Water Pathogen Project (GWPP) data is used to access the reduction of bacteria and viruses across different mechanical and natural sanitation technologies. The order of expected removal for bacteria during wastewater treatment was reported as highest for a membrane bioreactor (4.4 log10), waste stabilization pond (2.3 log10), conventional activated sludge (1.43 log10), anaerobic anoxic oxic activated sludge (1.9 log10), trickling filter (1.16 log10), and upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor (1.2 log10). Furthermore, the order of expected removal for viruses was reported as highest for a membrane bioreactor (3.3 log10), conventional activated sludge (1.84 log10), anaerobic anoxic oxic activated sludge (1.67 log10), waste stabilization pond (1 log10), upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor (0.3 log10) and trickling filter (0.29 log10). It was found that hydraulic retention time (HRT) had a statistically significant relation to the reduction of bacteria in an anaerobic, anoxic oxic treatment system. Similarly, a significant relation was found between the number of waste stabilization ponds in series and the expected reduction of bacteria. HRT was also found to be a significant factor in virus reduction in waste stabilization ponds. Additionally, it was observed that waste stabilization ponds, trickling filters, and UASB reactors could obtain a greater reduction in bacteria (5–7 log10) when combined with additional treatment (e.g., chemical disinfection or use of maturation ponds). Also, mechanized systems, such as activated sludge systems and membrane bioreactors, obtained a greater reduction (2–3 log10) of viruses when compared to a natural system. It was concluded that the selection of the best suitable technology for pathogen reduction depends on environmental, design, and operational factors as well as considering the performance of specific wastewater treatment systems individually as well as when combined with other treatment technologies that may provide added removal of microbial constituents.

▼ Uncertainty is inherent in predictive decision-making, both with respect to forecasting plausible future conditions based on a historic record, and with respect to backcasting likely upstream states from downstream observations. In the first chapter, I evaluated the status of current water resources management policy in the United States (U.S.) with respect to its integration of projective uncertainty into state-level flooding, drought, supply and demand, and climate guidance. I found uncertainty largely absent and discussed only qualitatively rather than quantitatively. In the second chapter, I turned to uncertainty in the interpretation of downstream observations as indicators of upstream behaviors in the field of Wastewater-Based Epidemiology (WBE), which has made possible the near real-time, yet anonymous, monitoring of public health via measurements of biomarkers excreted to wastewater. I found globally, seasonality of air and soil temperature causes biomarker degradation to vary up to 13-fold over the course of a year, constituting part of the background processes WBE must address, or detrend, prior to decision-making. To determine whether the seasonal change in degradation rates was introducing previously unaccounted for uncertainty with respect to differences in observed summertime and winter-time populations, I evaluated demographic indicators recorded by the Census Bureau for correlation with their distance from all major wastewater treatment plants across the U.S. The analysis identified statistically significant correlation for household income, education attainment, unemployment, military service, and the absence of health insurance. Finally, the model was applied to a city-wide case study to test whether temperature could explain some of the trends observed in monthly observations of two opiate compounds. Modeling suggests some of the monthly changes were attributed to natural temperature fluctuation rather than to trends in the substances’ consumption, and that uncertainty regarding discharge location can dominate even relative observed differences in opiate detections. In summary, my work has found temperature an important modulator of WBE results, influencing both the type of populations observed and the likelihood of upstream behaviors disproportionally magnified or obscured, particularly for the more labile biomarkers. There exists significant potential for improving the understanding of empirical observations via numerical modeling and the application of spatial analysis tools.

Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University. Community, Agriculture, Recreation, and Resource Studies 2017

While inland lakes in Michigan provide multiple community benefits, the aquatic ecosystems in many of these lakes are now significantly degraded, resulting in damages to ecological integrity, decreased utility by citizens and a decline in the municipal tax base due to loss in property values. Lake communities vary significantly in their capacity to identify problems and implement programs to improve lake water quality over time. This study utilizes the Community Capitals Framework (CCF) to investigate what community capitals (assets) lead to better capacity and outcomes in terms of improved management of lake resources through implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs). It also evaluates the Trophic State Index (TSI) of the lakes relative to the various community capitals. The exploration of this approach may be used in the future to specify which assets are most needed for improving water quality. This research increases our ability to understand capital resources and ultimately make recommendations to individual communities for optimal management capacity. Statistically significant findings include a positive correlation between cultural capital and BMPs in riparian communities with active Lake Management Plans (LMPs) demonstrating that as cultural capital increased, communities were more likely to implement BMPs. Additionally, there were significant differences between BMPs and financial capital for the riparian communities. Communities with higher financial capital that had LMP's were more likely to also implement BMPs. Lastly, there were significant differences between human capital and BMPs for the LMP communities, indicating that higher human capital was associated with a greater ability to implement BMPs.

Thesis M.S. Michigan State University. Biosystems Engineering 2011.

The environmental implications of large-scale bioenergy cropping systems are not well understood, making the provision of available conservation implementation resources difficult and inefficient. In order for biofuels to be a sustainable solution to fossil fuels, their cultivation must avoid intensifying negative environmental impacts. To address these issues, the following research objectives were developed: 1) determine if pesticides are suitable for lignocellulosic ethanol feedstocks 2) provide critical information to determine the suitability of bioenergy crops on a variety of types of agricultural land in Michigan 3) determine the possible environmental impacts of bioenergy cropping systems on sediment, nitrogen, and phosphorus yield to surface waters 4) determine the implications of bioenergy-associated pesticides on aquatic ecosystems and human consumption 5) obtain information to aid in watershed-scale decision making regarding landuse management. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was used to understand the impacts of large-scale bioenergy crop expansions on pollutant loads and concentrations. Results indicate that intensive bioenergy crops such as corn and sorghum tend to increase sediment, nitrogen, and phosphorus loads to surface waters, whereas perennial grass species such as switchgrass, miscanthus, and native grass generally mitigate pollutants. Although herbicide treatments mainly positively influenced biomass accumulation in corn during field studies at the Michigan State University Agronomy Farm, the application of herbicides at a large-scale was found to increase the impairments of streams in Michigan on the basis of fish ecotoxicity and to a larger extent, human consumption thresholds. In general, this study reinforces the importance of maintaining a sustainable bioenergy cropping system implementation strategy to avoid environmental and human health risks.

Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University, Biosystems Engineering 2012.

Animal manure contains essential plant nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium along with high number of bacteria, viruses and parasites. Pollutants contained in manure enter water bodies both as diffuse or non-point source and as point source from concentrated livestock production systems. Pathogens may flow to the water bodies when manure is applied to fields prior to rainfall. Nutrients that reach water bodies cause eutrophication and pathogens pose health risk. Two separate studies were conducted to evaluate the applicability of constructed wetlands in treating pollutants originating from animal manure. One constructed wetland system was spiked with high number of E. coli and bacteriophage P22 for a short period of time to simulated tile-drain flow and the number of E. coli and bacteriophage P22 in the effluent were monitored in winter and summer seasons. The other constructed wetland system was continuously supplied with diluted dairy wastewater and removal of pollutants and recovery of nutrients were measured. On average, 0.54 and 0.69 log reduction of E. coli were obtained in summer and winter months, respectively from the surface flow (SF) wetlands subjected to pulse loading. With similar loading, 3.16 and 1.23 log reduction of E. coli were obtained from subsurface flow (SSF) wetlands in summer and winter months, respectively. E. coli removal in subsurface flow wetland was higher than in surface flow wetland in both seasons. Two models one based on the convection dispersion equation (CDE) and the other based on colloid filtration theory did not adequately describe E. coli removal in constructed wetlands. Higher removal of bacteriophage P22 was observed in both SF and SSF wetlands in both winter and summer months in the wetlands subjected to pulse loading. P22 removal rates in SSF wetlands were 41 times the removal rate in SF wetlands in winter and 19 times in summer. The CDE model could accurately describe bacteriophage P22 removal in constructed wetlands.In the wetland systems that were subjected to continuous manure loading, chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP) and E. coli in influent and effluent were measured. Duckweed was harvested every week to explore the nutrient recovery potential. Average COD, TN and TP removal obtained in surface flow wetlands from dairy wastewater were 28%, 28% and 16% respectively. Average annual mass removal of COD, TN and TP in the wetlands were 2137 g COD/m²/year, 149.5 g N/m²/year and 10.3 g P/m²/year, respectively. First order removal model that includes background concentration was found more suitable than first order model or DUBWAT model for predicting effluent COD, TN and TP removal in constructed wetlands. Average N and P recovered by harvesting duckweed across all the wetlands were 22.4 g…

▼ The conversion of natural landscapes for human use over the past century has led to significant ecological consequences. By clearing tropical forests, intensifying agriculture and expanding urban centers, human actions have transformed local, regional and global hydrology. Urban landscapes, designed and built atop impervious surfaces, inhibit the natural infiltration of rainfall into the subsurface. Deforestation, driven by the demand for natural resources and food production, alters river flow and regional climate. These land cover changes have manifested into a number of water management challenges, from the city to the watershed scale, and motivated investment into landscape re-greening programs. This movement has prompted the need for monitoring, evaluation and prediction of the hydrological benefits of re-greening. The research presented in this dissertation assesses the contribution of different re-greening strategies to water resources management, from multiple scales. Specifically, re-greening at the city scale is investigated through the study of vegetated rooftops (green roofs) in a dense urban environment. Re-greening at the watershed scale is investigated through the study of forest regeneration on deforested and ecologically degraded land in the tropics. First, the benefits of city re-greening for urban water management are investigated through monitoring and modeling the hydrological behavior of a number of green roofs in New York City (NYC). Influence of green roof size and rainfall characteristics on a green roof’s ability to retain/ detain rainwater are explored and the ability of a soil infiltration model to predict green roof hydrology is assessed. Findings from this work present insight regarding green roof design optimization, which has utility for scientific researchers, architects, and engineers. Next, a cost effective tool is developed that can be used to evaluate green roof hydrologic performance, citywide. This tool, termed the Soil Water Apportioning Method (SWAM), generates green roof runoff and evapotranspiration based on minimally measured parameters. SWAM is validated using measured runoff from three extensive green roofs in NYC. Additional to green roofs, there is potential for SWAM to be used in the hydrologic performance evaluation of other types of green infrastructure, making SWAM a relevant tool for city planners and agencies as well as for researchers from various disciplines of study. Finally, the impact of degraded landscape re-greening is investigated using a case study of 15 watersheds in Puerto Rico that have experienced extensive reforestation. The study provides evidence of improved soil conditions following reforestation, which in effect positively impacts streamflow generation processes. Findings from this work fill a gap in knowledge regarding the hydrological benefits of forest regeneration in mesoscale watersheds and provide guidance for future investment into reforestation programs. Land cover will inevitably continue to change to meet…

Thesis M.S. Michigan State University. Fisheries and Wildlife 2011.

Michigan has 11,037 inland lakes, 3,288 miles of Great Lakes shoreline, and 36,000 miles of streams (Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) 2009). These freshwater aquatic resources require diligent management to preserve and protect both their quality and quantity. Federal, state and local governments share responsibility for setting policy and implementing management. However, land use planning decisions are primarily made at the local level of government throughout the United States. My research aimed to understand how local (government) environmental regulations affect inland lake water quality, as measured by water clarity. My questions were: 1) is water clarity negatively impacted by fragmentation (i.e. multiple jurisdictions within one lake catchment)?, and 2) does local land use and environmental policy have a positive effect on inland lake water clarity? I expected that lake water clarity would be better in unfragmented catchments and catchments with stronger local land use and environmental policies than in fragmented catchments with weak environmental policies. I answered these questions by examining 420 lakes and their corresponding local regulations in southwest Michigan, which is an area that is dominated by agriculture and urban land use. I sent a survey to local jurisdictions to gather local policy information. I used GIS to combine land use/cover and landscape characteristics with policy data at the township scale. I used ANOVA and multiple regressions to analyze the relationships between water clarity and policy while controlling for land use/cover and landscape factors. I found that water clarity was negatively affected by fragmentation (the number of townships within a lake catchment). However, once local environmental policy was included in the regression, fragmentation was no longer significant. I also found that some specific policies had a positive effect on water clarity. The complex and dynamic interactions between land use and water quality make it difficult to evaluate the sole effects of policy on water quality, which could be a reason why little scholarly research has been completed on the direct policy to water quality links.

▼ Infrastructure systems around the world face immediate crises and smoldering long-term challenges. Consequently, system owners and managers must balance the need to repair and replace the aging and deteriorating systems already in place against the need for transformative investments in deep decarbonization, climate adaptation, and transportation that will enable long-term competitiveness. Complicating these decisions are deep uncertainties, finite resources, and competing objectives. These challenges motivate the integration of “hard” investments in physical infrastructure with “soft” instruments like insurance, land use policy, and ecosystem restoration that can improve service, shrink costs, scale up or down as future needs require, and reduce vulnerability to population loss and economic contraction. A critical advantage of soft instruments is that they enable planners to adjust, expand, or reduce them at regular intervals, unlike hard instruments which are difficult to modify once in place. As a result, soft instruments can be precisely tailored to meet near-term needs and conditions, including projections of the quasi-oscillatory, regime-like climate processes that dominate seasonal to decadal hydro-climate variability, thereby reducing the need to guess the needs and hazards of the distant future. The objective of this dissertation is to demonstrate how potentially predictable modes of structured climate variability can inform the design of soft instruments and the formulation of adaptive infrastructure system plans. Using climate information for sequential adaptation requires developing credible projections of climate variables at relevant time scales. Part I considers the drivers of river floods in large river basins, which is used throughout this dissertation as an example of a high-impact hydroclimate extreme. First, chapter 2 opens by exploring the strengths and limitations of existing methodologies, and by developing a statistical-dynamical causal chain framework within which to consider flood risk on interannual to secular time scales. Next, chapter 3 describes the physical mechanisms responsible for heavy rainfall (90th percentile exceedance)and flooding in the Lower Paraguay River Basin (LPRB), focusing on a November-February(NDJF) 2015-16 flood event that displaced over 170 000 people. This chapter shows that: 1. persistent large-scale conditions over the South American continent during NDJF 2015-16 strengthened the South American Low-Level Jet (SALLJ), bringing warm air and moisture to South East South America (SESA), and steered the jet towards the LPRB, leading to repeated heavy rainfall events and large-scale flooding; 2. while the observed El Niño event contributed to a stronger SALLJ, the Madden-JulienOscillation (MJO) and Atlantic ocean steered the jet over the LPRB; and 3. while numerical sub-seasonal to seasonal (S2S) and seasonal models projected an elevated risk of flooding consistent with the observed El Niño event, they had limited skill at lead times…

▼ The management of the Yangtze River Basin (YRB) is facing two main challenges: implementing the Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) regime and adapting to water-related climate change impacts. While separate efforts in promoting the IWRM implementation and climate change adaptation are being made, this thesis proposes an innovative approach of mainstreaming climate change adaptation considerations within IWRM regime in order to deliver sustainable and robust water management decisions and outcomes for the YRB. Mainstreaming adaptation in this thesis refers to the incorporation of climate change adaptation-related factors into water development planning and ongoing sectoral decision-making process. Current Yangtze water management regime and practices have not considered adaptation factors. Thus, this thesis attempts to contribute to the literature through analysing the rationale of mainstreaming adaptation in the IWRM-related legal and institutional frameworks and proposing applicable recommendations for Yangtze water managers. Centred with this mainstreaming approach, this thesis addresses three overarching questions: first, what is the capacity of the Yangtze water management related legal and institutional frameworks in achieving sustainable development. Alternatively, to what extent do the Yangtze water-related legal and institutional frameworks contribute to climate change adaptation? Second, could water-related climate change impacts be mainstreamed in the legal and institutional frameworks on the IWRM of Yangtze River? Finally, if the answer to the second question is yes, what is the best way to implement adaptation mainstreaming? An investigation and examination of existing legal and institutional frameworks on the Yangtze water management regime and practice is essential, as this is where adaptation could be mainstreamed, and their capacity in achieving sustainability largely determines the capacity against vulnerability and negative climate change impacts. By analysing research literature and water management practices, the progress and deficiencies of these water-centred legal and institutional frameworks in delivering an effective IWRM regime are demonstrated. Following that, corresponding recommendations are brought out to illustrate how legislation could be improved and how institutional arrangements could be reformed with the objective of delivering sustainability and reducing non-climatic vulnerability. Current and future water management frameworks and regimes will no doubt shape the way ahead for water-based adaptation. At the same time, it is also important to realise that climate change adaptation-related policies, legislation and institutional arrangements will challenge and shape the paths and approaches of managing water resources. This interactive relationship firstly requires assessing the adaptation-related legal and institutional frameworks to see to what extent effective adaptation strategies are facilitated and supported. Secondly, it entails a reflective discourse where the… Advisors/Committee Members: University of Western Sydney (Host institution), School of Law (Host institution).

▼ Water quality has evolved legislatively from protection of navigation routes and quantity of sources to more emphasis on impairments on water quality for surface and groundwater sources. Nonpoint or diffuse sources of impairments represents a major challenge for management due to the complexity of its sources and difficulty in tracking. The most cited sections on public policy analysis focuses on the overall process agencies employ to understand the results the program yields. Often overlooked are finer details and mechanisms, such as decision-making and priority setting, which have a great impact on the overall process. To investigate these factors, we need to analyze the decision-making process used by managers. This study focuses on using information from those with direct involvement in the establishment and implementation of the Total Maximum Daily Load program for the state of Florida. This study used decision-making analysis models from Rational-Decision-Making and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis concepts to construct questionnaires that looks to develop priorities as seen by managers’ preferences for several presented options. This methodology allowed us to structure the viewpoints and processes water quality managers use to breakdown decisions. The analyzed results show water quality managers prefer strong management options, involvement from stakeholders with scientific knowledge, and data collected from the source or point of impact. Interestingly, opinions in the group show that urban best management practices are considered more effective than their agriculture counterparts with a disfavor for volunteer derived data. Ultimately, the survey highlights the need for more robust enforcement and reliable measurement of non-point source of impairments. Continued public outreach and education, especially through workshops, are denoted as important tasks to completing successful TMDLs and should be expanded and strengthened by both the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and its boundary programs.
