Editorial

Growing development has destroyed forests across the globe. This in turn has led to pollution in water bodies caused by urban stormwater. The good news is that relief has come from Wallingford Software; the leading developer of hydraulic modeling software for the water industry has announced the release of InfoWorks SD (Storm Drainage) for fast, accurate, and comprehensive modeling of stormwater flows.

Modeling stormwater runoff means being able to model stormwater flows in the complex real-world environment. This features a wide range of both underground, overland structures, and potential flow paths.

Sustainable Development Technology Canada is to fund the further development of a nanotechnology-based sensor for testing pathogens to prevent waterborne outbreaks.

A Canadian physicist and an American scientist have pooled their expertise and developed an instant detector, in order to address the threat of dangerous bacteria in water.
