The American West, the last region in the continental United States to be developed for extensive agriculture, is characterized by a wide range of biomes including arid, and semiarid regions, forest, and coastline. In its less water-rich places, this has forced the development of water supply infrastructure for agriculture and cities. The American West rapidly became an agricultural powerhouse to the United States and a major exporter of agricultural commodities in global economy. This chapter reviews agriculture in the western United States, followed by a short review of major western water issues for agriculture, including surface water shortages from drought and persistent groundwater overdraft. The California 2012–2016 drought is used as a case study to identify lessons for future food and fiber production in California, the western United States, and globally.

Sex Ratio Distortion

In virtually all multicellular eukaryotes, mitochondria are transmitted exclusively through one parent, usually the mother. In this short review, we discuss some of the major consequences of uniparental transmission of mitochondria, including deleterious effects in males and selection for increased transmission through females. Many of these consequences, particularly sex ratio distortion, have well-studied parallels in other maternally transmitted genetic elements, such as bacterial endosymbionts of arthropods. We also discuss the consequences of linkage between mitochondria and other maternally transmitted genetic elements, including the role of cytonuclear incompatibilities in maintaining polymorphism. Finally, as a case study, we discuss a recently discovered maternally transmitted sex ratio distortion in an insect that is associated with extraordinarily divergent mitochondria.

Humanitarian Supply Chain

Coordination has been reported as a main issue in humanitarian supply chain. Although it is recognized as a potential driver for efficiency, it is not broadly studied in real cases. This chapter presents a case study for humanitarian supply chain. Using Lambert's framework for SCM, humanitarian supply chain is characterized identifying its structure, business processes, and management components. Once humanitarian supply chain is understood, a short review is performed to identify how coordination is being integrated into humanitarian supply chains body of literature, and principles, techniques, and technologies applied for coordination in humanities supply chain are identified. Finally, using content analysis methodology, coordination issues are mapped through humanitarian actors in Colombia by understanding the supply chain strategy of three principal actors for Colombian humanitarian supply chain.

Boron Doped Diamond

A short review on the treatment of effluents from food processing industries by electrochemical oxidation (EO) was performed. Olive mill wastewater (OMW) and boron-doped diamond (BDD) are the most reported effluent and anode material, respectively. The addition of NaCl or Na2SO4 as supporting electrolytes is common in these studies, and their influence on the EO performance depends, among other things, on the anode material, since the electrolyte oxidation mechanism is different when active and non-active anode materials are utilized. A case-study on the application of a pilot plant, working in batch mode with recirculation, equipped with a BDD anode, to treat 4 L of OMW, slaughterhouse (SW) and winery (WW) wastewaters, with initial chemical oxygen demands (COD) of 20.5, 3.6 and 0.26 g L−1, respectively, is presented and discussed. In 16 h assays, 94% COD removal was achieved for OMW, and for SW and WW the Portuguese COD legal discharge limit of 150 mg L−1 was accomplished. Process efficiency decreased for lower organic load. NaCl addition increased COD removal in SW and WW, but presented an adverse effect for OMW COD removal, when compared to Na2SO4 addition. Nevertheless, lower specific energy consumptions were attained in chloride medium (48 Wh (g COD)−1).
