Water Consumption – Residential End Uses of Water (REU)
The Residential End Uses of Water (REU) 2016 study contains extensive household water-use information from 24 water utility companies across the United States and Canada. The REU database consists of four main data sets that come from two main sources: (1) household water use (e.g., 12 days of metered consumption) and billing information (e.g., annual water consumption) and (2) household survey response. The data initially comes from the Water Research FoundationResidential End Uses of Water, Version 2 survey.
Abstracts used in Text Mining Analysis Study on Climate Change Research published in the Journal of Industrial Ecology
All 30,000+ abstracts and publication details used in the forum article “A text mining analysis of the climate change literature in industrial ecology” to analyze the literature for the Special Issue on Industrial Ecology for Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience published in the Journal of Industrial Ecology. All abstracts were analyzed using the LiTCoF (Literature Topic Co-occurrence and Frequency) tool developed for that purpose that can be downloaded freely here.
