🌾 Excited to share our new paper in ACS ES&T Water!
We identified the permissible limit of arsenic in irrigation water for rice cultivation (190 μg/L) using 420 soil columns and machine learning.

Parc Natural de l'Albufera de València, Spain 2022 - image: Michel Meijer The winter period from November to February. Most rice fields are flooded or saturated with water. The winter period from November to February. Most rice fields are flooded or saturated with water. This rice field is completely flooded with water. The plant debris and wild plants have not yet mixed with the top layer of soil. This photograph is from a photo series on rice cultivation in València's Albufera. This photo project falls under the broader theme of cultural landscapes. By using photos and text, I show what people do with the landscape they live in and its effects on the landscape. The documentaries are meant to be registrations, telling and showing what happens and how something functions. Human activities in the Albufera are at odds with nature in the area. Many animal and plant species are disappearing due to agriculture, fishing, hunting, industry, tourism and urbanisation. Since the people have realised that a clean living environment and high biodiversity also have great benefits for humans, they are committed to protecting the flora and fauna in the Albufera. As the interests of different parties are often conflicting, this is a difficult and long-term process. Nevertheless, people are increasingly managing to make their activities less harmful to the natural habitat.
During the different seasons, the #landscape shows itself in different shapes and colours. In the #Albufera Natural Park, I try to show this by photographing only the soil of the rice fields that are located there in different seasons. www.singulart.com/en/artworks/...

India’s rice fields are thriving! 🌾 With strong monsoon rains, sowing is up 12.4%, now at 17.67M hectares. This means a stronger harvest and a bigger role for India in global rice exports. 🚜📦🌍

This dried-up rice field with wild growing plants caught my eye and seemed a fitting photo motif for my photo series on rice farming in the Albufera. So I set up my tripod and camera to take a picture of this. By the way, this photo was taken with my iPhone.
The camera set-up consists of a tripod from the company Sirui and a medium format camera type C330 from the company Mamiya.
