The 10th International Conference on Water Resources and Environment Research (ICWRER 2025)
A couple of years ago, Prof. Kumaraswamy Ponnambalam of the University of Waterloo enquired with the Water Institute of Karunya Deemed University (KITS) whether the Tenth ICWRER Conference could be hosted by the University in Coimbatore. He also mentioned that the First Conference in 1993, immediately after the Dublin Conference and the Earth Summit, was held at the University of Waterloo in honour of Prof. T. E. Unny, the renowned stochastic hydrologist from India. The event to be held at the Karunya campus from 9-11 December 2025 is the First ICWRER Meet in the country. Water security has become a significant concern for nations worldwide. On its part, the Government of India is committed to achieving the SDGs, and the Ministry of Jal Shakti and other agencies have taken up several initiatives. The growing demand for water due to rapid urbanization and agricultural activities necessitates the sustainable management of water resources. Many areas in the country are under water stress and scarcity. Climate change is feared to exacerbate existing problems, mainly due to increased intensity and frequency of hydrologic extremes, sea-level rise, and snowmelt. Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) is a process for sustainable development that allocates and monitors water resource use, considering social, economic, environmental, and institutional objectives. There is a need to assess the efficacy and efficiency of the various techniques and models attempted so far, and also to evolve new ones to address specific and general problems. The case studies on these projects and schemes are expected to throw light on the future course of action to be initiated. Wastewater generation is a multifaceted issue influenced by domestic, industrial, agricultural, and emerging activities. Each source presents unique challenges, necessitating tailored management and treatment strategies to safeguard environmental and public health. By acknowledging and addressing the diverse sources of wastewater, we make significant strides toward a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable future. Emerging contaminants, viz., microplastics and endocrine disruptors, are increasingly recognized for their potential health impacts and environmental persistence. The aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems are facing threats of different types and dimensions, leading to their degradation and disappearance; the biodiversity of ecosystems, especially aquatic ecosystems, is facing multiple challenges. These are also to be addressed, and experiences shared with a congregation of experts and other stakeholders. The ICWRER-2025 is expected to provide a common platform for experts in water and environment to meet, interact, share their thoughts, and offer their views on future action. Our primary focus has been on students and scholars in the field of water and environment, as well as other stakeholders, who we believe will contribute effectively to future research, academia, policy formulation, and project implementation. The Co-chair and I are thankful to all those from the University of Waterloo and Karunya Institute of Technology and Sciences, and to several experts from different parts of the world who have supported this event, as well as to the delegates – academic and professional - who have shown great interest in this Conference. We now look forward to very fruitful deliberations at the ICWRER-2025, through effective interaction and the contribution of ideas and solutions to address problems faced by the water and environment sectors, finally saving and sustaining our planet and humanity in particular.

The Evolution of Social Interaction Patterns in the Digital Age: Examining the Influence of Technology Mediated Communication
In the contemporary digital perspective, social interaction patterns undergo continual transformation due to the pervasive influence of technology-mediated communication. This research aims to explore the intricate dynamics of social interactions in the digital age and elucidate the multifaceted impact of technology-mediated communication on human communication behaviors. Drawing upon interdisciplinary research from psychology, sociology, and communication studies, this paper examines the evolution of social interaction patterns within virtual environments. The advent of digital platforms has revolutionized traditional modes of communication, providing novel avenues for interpersonal engagement and connectivity. Through an analytical lens, this research assesses the implications of technology-mediated communication on social cohesion, identity formation, and interpersonal relationships. Additionally, it investigates the role of digital interfaces in shaping communicative norms and etiquettes, considering both the merits and drawbacks of virtual interaction modalities. Furthermore, this study delves into the nuanced interplay between technology and social cognition, unraveling the cognitive processes underlying digital communication practices. By elucidating the complexities of online social dynamics, this research offers insights into the transformative potential of technology-mediated communication on human sociality, paving the way for future research endeavors in the burgeoning field of digital communication studies.

Brics and Economic Development: A Multidisciplinary Perspective
BRICS shall die, metamorphose and thrive. It’s a way of rethinking the socio-economic fabric before, amid and beyond the COVID-19 crisis. BRICS as a partnership was not static from its inception by Jim O’Neil to date. Starting as BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) the partnership incorporated South Africa in 2010 to form the BRICS. As the partnership it was mainly a political initiative that had little if any economic developmental project but it didn’t take long before the organisation metamorphosed into a relatively robust and ambitious economic challenger of the current world order, symbolised by the “competition” with the Breton wood institutions inter alia the World Bank and the International Monetary Funds (IMF). Just like a grain planted into the soil that needs to die and come out as a crop before growing to become a plant or a tree, BRICS must face it. The study predicts the death of BRICS and explains that it will either evolve into BRICS Plus or a totally different but more effective global organisation overpowering once for all the Breton wood institutions and ultimately changing the world order – could the COVID-19 crisis accelerate that process? Could the current health pandemic and global economic crisis that goes with it trigger the metamorphosis of the BRICS as we know it today? What if that becomes one of the effects of the much-anticipated new world order? Let’s wait and see. Using a variety of research conducted separately, this e-book discusses matters of economic substance from African perspective. it identifies the negative scores of the BRICS as a partnership as it is confronted with death and seeks to understand its rebirth, restructuring or re-engineering in the aftermath. The study further assesses the strengths of BRICS and advices how to capitalise on these for a steady economic growth going forward. It looks at economic issues affecting the BRICS or its member countries with focus on South Africa.

Green Corrosion Inhibitors: Reviews and Applications
The present work has been focused on the environmental, health as well as economic aspect and hence planned to use some of the eco-friendly corrosion inhibition behaviour of aqueous and alcoholic extract of six plants selected namely Gloriosa Superba Linn (GSL), Madhuca longifolia (ML), Alangium lamarckiii (AL), Holoptelea integrifolia (HI), Pithecellobium dulce (PD) and Schreabera swietenioids (SS) on mild steel surface in 1N HCl solution were investigated by mass loss with different time of contact, various temperature and evaluated by electrochemical impedance and Tafel studies. Polarization measurement revealed that the plant extracts which can act as mixed type inhibitor. An EIS plot indicates that the increase of inhibitor concentration increased the charge transfer resistance and decreased double layer capacitance. Organic moieties present in the extract were also found responsible performance of the inhibitor which was well supported by FTIR studies. The inhibitive effect of the ML, GSL, PD, AL, HI, and SS (both extracts) could be attributed to the presence of phytochemical constituent in the plants which is absorbed on the surface of the mild steel. The nature of Protective film formed on the MS surface has been confirmed by SEM analysis. The surface coverage values were tested graphically to fit for a suitable adsorption isotherm.
