“…The evaporation rate near a buoyant plume generated by SGD is much higher than over the general surface of the Dead Sea (Mor, Assouline, Tanny, Lensky, & Lensky, 2018), but the affected areas are small relative to the area of the Dead Sea. The processes about which little is known in the water budget of the Dead Sea are the rate of evaporation and SGDs (Siebert et al, 2016). If one of these can be determined accurately, a reasonable evaluation will also be available for the other rate.…”

The Dead Sea is a closed lake, the water level of which is lowering at an alarming rate of about 1 m/year. Factors difficult to determine in its water balance are evaporation and groundwater inflow, some of which emanate as submarine groundwater discharge. A vertical buoyant jet generated by the difference in densities between the groundwater and the Dead Sea brine forms at submarine spring outlets. To characterize this flow field and to determine its volumetric discharge, a system was developed to measure the velocity and density of the ascending submarine groundwater across the center of the stream along several horizontal sections and equidistant depths while divers sampled the spring. This was also undertaken on an artificial submarine spring with a known discharge to determine the quality of the measurements and the accuracy of the method. The underwater widening of the flow is linear and independent of the volumetric spring discharge. The temperature of the Dead Sea brine at lower layers primarily determines the temperature of the surface of the upwelling, produced above the jet flow, as the origin of the main mass of water in the submarine jet flow is Dead Sea brine. Based on the measurements, a model is presented to evaluate the distribution of velocity and solute density in the flow field of an emanating buoyant jet. This model allows the calculation of the volumetric submarine discharge, merely requiring either the maximum flow velocity or the minimal density at a given depth.

“…The food-waterenergy-ecosystems nexus can be seen as a successor (albeit not a replacement) of the IWRM concept. It was popularized much more recently, following the ''The Water, Energy and Food Security Nexus'' and ''Water in the Anthropocene'' conferences in Bonn, Germany, in 2011 and 2013, respectively (Ibisch et al 2016a). One major difference is that water management is not the main focus of the nexus but that multiple sectors are considered concurrently to find sustainable solutions (de Strasser et al 2016;Ibisch et al 2016a).…”

One major difference is that water management is not the main focus of the nexus but that multiple sectors are considered concurrently to find sustainable solutions (de Strasser et al 2016;Ibisch et al 2016a). Even though the European Water Framework Directive (EU-WFD) is sometimes considered as an implementation tool for IWRM, the directive was adopted to unify the highly fragmented European water policies (Heldt et al 2017;Rahaman et al 2004) which focus on the ecosystem-based protection of European water resources.…”

Germany does not only have a long tradition in water research, but a very active community of scientists and practitioners working on a vast range of ''water topics.'' This thematic issue, which was initiated by four water-related research associations (German Hydrological Society; German Limnological Society; Hydrological Sciences Commission within German Water Association; Working Group Hydrology within German Geographical Society), is a testimony of both the quality and diversity of the water research currently undertaken by Germany's scientific community. Key topics include hydrology and hydromorphology; water quality; aquatic and riparian ecosystems; water in agriculture and forestry; and water management and supply. The manuscripts contained in this thematic issue do not only cover a period of more than two millennia, but also address all types of water resources and a multitude of both established and newly developed methods that help us to better understand the processes governing the hydrological cycle, aquatic ecosystems and the management and operation of various water infrastructures.

“…LITERATURE REVIEW "Knowledge management" first appeared in Horton's book written in 1979. Horton proposed the concept from the perspective of resource management evolution (Ibisch et al, 2016). Stewart (1997) put forth the concept of "knowledge capital" in 1991, pointing out that knowledge capital has become an important asset of the US (Edvinsson, 1996) Yan (2001) divided corporate knowledge management into three periods, namely "short-term objective", "medium-term objective" and "long-term objective", according to the length of corporate objectives, and built a complete system of evaluation indices based on the characteristics of different periods.…”

Studying teachers' knowledge management is also an entry point to studying knowledge management in the field of education. To guarantee the healthy and continuous development of teachers' knowledge management ability, it is crucial to evaluate their management level in a scientific, objective and comprehensive way. Using the expert consultation and analytic hierarchy process (AHP), we put forward and set up an evaluation index system for college teachers' knowledge management, we evaluated the knowledge management levels of college teachers. The results showed that rankings of knowledge management levels of college teachers were knowledge acquisition, knowledge organization, knowledge development and knowledge innovation from high to low. Their knowledge management was above the average as a whole. From all levels, the scores of knowledge acquisition and knowledge organization were relatively high.
