Use of palm fronds as shaded cover for evaporation reduction to improve water storage efficiency

Shamshad Alam, Abdulmohsen A. Al-Shaikh · Journal of King Saud University - Engineering Sciences (2012)

Key finding (our summary)

Field-tests palm fronds as a low-cost shaded cover to reduce evaporation and improve water-storage efficiency — a locally available, low-tech option for small storages.

Demonstrates a genuinely low-cost natural method relevant to small, resource-limited operations.
