چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
In the age of technology, effective conservation of soil and water needs smart monitoring tools adoption. Smart monitoring deals with the advent and development of modern sensors/actuators. These new tools can costly share a lot of valuable data with scientists, managers, and the public to build, conserve, and progress best management practices, inform policies, and establish good watershed governance. In this paper, we have discussed several smart tools that were recently introduced in the natural resource contexts, particularly in the watershed scale. The modern tools have processors that automatically measure critical hydrological variables and processes. In this regard, it could be referring to the US U-95 passive samplers, ISCOTM automatic pump sampler, radio telemetry of VHF (Very High Frequency) and UHF (Ultra High Frequency), and automated electronic samplers, smart pebbles, UbeTube 7, SMARTBoat 7, smart water turbidity monitoring system, image processing, automatic runoff samplers, automatic bucket prototype, smart IoT flood monitoring system, microcontroller-based automatic rain sampler, and. The results emphasize the widespread need to address smart management in the hydrological processes. The information of the present study strongly supports the appropriate selection of the most suitable tools for the different aspects of soil and water conservation systems. |
