Session Content:
Water is the most critical environmental resource for life, ecosystem services, and social and economic development. In recent years, in many regions of the world, access to water has been increasingly restricted. On the other hand, the rapid growth of population and increasing demand for water supplies pose enormous pressure on scarce water resources on our planet. Applying adaptive, innovative, integrated water management approaches can only alleviate the gap between water supplies and demands.
During the session, tools of utilizing Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques and big data to pave the road to Sustainable Development Goals and a Sustainable water future are presented. Innovative techniques to save water and energy, such as Precision Irrigation, will be represented in the session. Flash flood as a non-conventional source of freshwater will be discussed as well as Riverbank Filtration techniques. Heat unit and cut-off deficit irrigation effect on wheat production will be addressed in the session.
