3rd anni req 11: [NIGHTBRINGER] belphie, lucifer / deep sleep
ao3 link
note: i've mostly been doing these in the order i remember getting them so far, but i might start skipping around, since they're quite lucifer-frontloaded (not that i'm complaining). anyway - this is based on nb lesson 12, where mc's in that curse-coma, but! the twist is that ik can somehow still speak through it. since, y'know, special reaper curse
∎ ∎ ∎ ∎ ∎
“...oh, you’re here.”
Lucifer doesn’t look up as Belphie slips into the room. He stays there, sitting in a chair he’s dragged from the dining room, half-hunched over, with his forearms on his knees. Belphie gets the distinct feeling that his oldest brother hasn’t slept in the last forty-eight hours.
He glances over at the wan face of the room’s only other occupant. “...still not up?”
“Solomon said not to expect it to happen soon,” Lucifer says blankly. “We don’t know the exact nature of the curse. By all means, it should have been fatal.”
They both look at IK’s blank face. The light flickers in a way that, for a moment, makes her look as if she’s blinking awake - though Belphie doesn’t dare hope.
“Weird kid,” He mumbles, more to her than Lucifer. “You can’t do magic, but you can survive reaper curses? If you can do that, why didn’t you…”
'Why didn’t you stop us from trying to hurt you?' is what he means, but he can’t finish the question. Lucifer looks as if he knows what he was going to say, anyway.
“So where’s Solomon gone, then?” He asks after a beat, frowning. “All that talk, and he’s not even staying to look after her?”
“He said he’d look for solutions in the tomes at the cave. And that he was leaving IK in charge.”
Yeah, that’s right.
“As if h— huh?”
They both whip around. IK hasn’t moved.
Belphie glances quickly at Lucifer. “Did you hear—?”
“Yes.” His response is short and harried. “What was that?”
They both fall silent for a moment, listening hard. Nothing.
“Maybe we’re just hearing things,” Belphie says reluctantly, though he’d swear it to anyone that he just heard IK speaking, loud and clear.
“Do you think that’s likely?” Lucifer stands up, staring around the room like a sentinel, a dangerous shadow falling over his face. “It could be any manner of mimicry. If something’s gotten in—”
Wait, did you hear me?
Lucifer goes dead silent. There's no mistaking that voice - but there’s also no mistaking the fact that the speaker has not moved an inch.
After a moment, Belphie tries, “IK?”
You did! She sounds downright joyful - the words don’t quite ring like speech does in a room, but the voice in their heads is clear as day. I was so BORED.
“You can talk?” He asks, bewildered. “Wait, you’re— can’t you open your eyes?”
No. Do you think I haven’t tried? Now she sounds aggravated. I’ve been awake this whole time. I just can’t bloody move.
“Watch your language,” He says automatically.
Don’t start. I’m losing my mind here. But you can actually hear me now!
“Yes, you’ve said that already.” Lucifer sits down again, leaning forward, practically on the edge of his seat. “How much do you remember?”
Hmm. I remember you both trying to kill me.
A pause. Then Lucifer asks, voice suddenly about half as loud, “What is your situation, then?”
There’s a sort of buzz, as if IK is laughing. Not much going on. It’s like sitting in a dark room. I can hear things coming from outside, but I can’t see anything. It sucks.
Say, if you were a shark, what kind would you be?
“What?”
I think you’d be a nurse shark, Belphie, because they’re usually chill, except when they aren’t. And Lucifer would be… a blue shark, because that’s his favourite colour.
They exchange mildly bemused looks. After a moment, Lucifer says slowly, “How do you know that? I’ve never told you.”
…uh… Belphie gets the distinct feeling that IK is panicking. ...context clues. You know, clothes and stuff.
“You’ve only seen him wearing red,” He says a little suspiciously.
And what’s the opposite of red? Blue. Next question.
It’s no use trying to pry. Every time this happens - every time Belphie gets the unnerving feeling that their attendant knows them better than they even know themselves - he tries to figure out why, and IK deflects. The dedication would be impressive if it wasn’t annoying.
Who is this kid? She shows up, completely out cold, and hasn’t even been awake for an hour by the time she’s been put in charge of the Devildom’s newly-minted residents. Then Solomon, of all people, that sorcerer whose reputation long precedes him, shows up calling her his ward, even though she’s got no magic to speak of.
Though Belphie doesn’t know what else to call her knack for making them… talk. She takes to the Devildom like a duck to water - practically skips through it all while they’re still mired in their own rotten souls. They should’ve been insulted that Diavolo would think this ridiculous little thing capable of handling the seven of them, but IK does it like it’s second nature.
That’s the frustrating part. They’ll tell her near-everything, and IK tells them absolutely nothing. And it isn’t that they’re stupid, or blind, or so self-absorbed that they don’t notice when she goes quiet - when she stares off at something that isn’t there, eyes filled with some inexplicable loneliness that should be far beyond her years.
Is Satan around? IK asks. He was in here, reading, before. He couldn’t hear me then, but maybe he will now.
“Um… he went out.” Belphie sits down on the foot of the bed. “Hey. I’m… not angry with you anymore.”
Wow. Do you want an award?
“No, I—” He swallows. His tail flicks up behind him, and he seizes it for comfort before he can stop himself. “—I’m sorry. That’s what I meant.”
Oh.
Okay.
He waits for a moment. There’s no other response. He looks at Lucifer.
His brother’s face is twisted into something that might resemble remorse. The ironic part is that Ik would probably know better than he does, if only she could open her eyes to see.
“We’re doing what we can,” is all Lucifer says after a while. “You will be alright. I can promise you that.”
That’s a relief, she says, a touch ironically. So am I just stuck like this until Solomon figures something out?
Lucifer’s jaw tightens. “...I don’t know. All we can do is wait.”
Great. I’ll get right on that.
Belphie scoffs. “I don’t know how you’re making jokes right now. You could’ve died. You still might now.”
Oh, I wouldn’t worry about that, says IK dryly. I know what being dead feels like. This isn't anything like it.
“What? What’s that supposed to mean?”
No answer. Belphie shoots an apprehensive look at Lucifer, then leans forward. “Hey. I’m talking to you.”
Silence. He doesn’t know if IK’s refusing to speak, or if the connection has broken already. He makes as if to stand up, to go find Barbatos, or Diavolo, or anyone who might know how to repair it. He can't lose it now.
He’s poured his heart out to her once before, then hadn’t even waited a day to turn on her. He doesn’t know what, but he has to do something about it, right?
But, before he can, Lucifer takes a deep breath, then abruptly stands up.
“...I have to go,” He mutters.
That, at least, gets IK to speak up again - Belphie feels a rather distracted spark of relief. Where are you going?
“Out,” He replies sharply, then pauses, and sighs. “...I need to clear my head. You’re… incomprehensible.”
That’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me.
…hey. You’ll come back and talk to me, right? It’s really boring in here.
“Is that what you want?” He asks, softer.
It’d be nice.
Lucifer looks at IK for a moment, then leans down. Belphie doesn’t quite see what he does, but when he straightens up again, the blankest are tucked in more snugly, and IK’s hair looks a little neater than it did before.
“Then I will,” Lucifer tells her, and steps back. With one last, lingering glance, he turns on his heel, and walks out.
…
…Belphie, are you still there?
“Yeah,” He says quietly, and decides to take Lucifer’s seat. “Are you okay?”
Not the best I’ve been. Not the best week I’ve had, either.
He wishes he had some water. “That’s our fault, isn’t it?”
Sorry.
“Don’t— what are you saying sorry for? You always—” He stops himself before he can finish. “—you’re so weird.”
A pause. Then, That’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me.
“Stop it. Just…” He drags a hand through his hair and catches a finger on his left horn. “...just let me feel bad, will you?”
…fine.
He takes a breath. “...Beel’s okay, by the way. I don’t know if you’ve heard him.”
I did. I’m really glad.
“He’s worried. We all are. Look, I—”
Don’t bother, IK interrupts. …I get it, I mean. You don’t have to explain it to me.
“I really don’t get you,” He mumbles.
Another laughing sound. I get that a lot.
“Aren’t you scared? Aren’t you angry?”
Not angry. Scared… maybe.
Doesn’t matter, though. It’ll be fine. It has to be. I have to get…
Silence for a while. He doesn't quite dare to ask - have to get... what? What is it that she's so determined to hold on for?
…hey. If you wanted to, say, make it up to me… could you hold my hand?
He blinks. “Will you be able to feel it?”
I don’t know. But it’d be a nice thought.
“...okay. Sure, I can do that.”
Belphie drags the chair closer, untucks a corner of the blanket, and closes his fingers around a cold little hand. IK's voice murmurs a quiet thank you.
If he really squints, he can fool himself into seeing a tiny smile on her face.
"You'd better wake up soon."

Wider application of nature-based solutions (NBS) to climate change adaptation would deliver multiple societal benefits and contribute to biodiversity conservation. However, there is limited experience scaling solutions beyond local contexts. The lack of standardised methods for assessment and monitoring of NBS is a major challenge for replicating and applying them at a wider scale.
This briefing looks into applied assessment frameworks and the scaling potential of selected NBS, and how they may contribute to ecosystem restoration outside protected areas.

Hello, Andrew here. This blog article was sent to me and I can assure you that this is not correct information but a reaction likely of those who were involved. This information likely stems from previous MoM or HM themselves, I guess, seeing that they have been banned properly recently (which I am only stating because you already stated it yourself, otherwise I would not give away who is or is not banned)
When I took over I made it very clear in an NB post that the harrassment of users, witch hunt on site, and generally toxic and disrespectful behaviour needs to stop. Everyone is more than welcome to share opinions, but this was not that, this was simply insanely rude behaviour that was based on wrong information given by the MoM/HM to the other leaders of WoP, who then compiled their letter. Which is also the reason why after all of this these other site leaders were put back into their positions after everything was cleared up.
I have banned a total of 4 people from 800-900 actives at the time for continuing their disrespectful behaviour and outright slandering (one of them later on) despite my very clear warning in the article (I was surprised that it was only so few, but almost everyone was just glad to be able to enjoy the website again). I also made an effort to respond to each single comment transparently and open minded. Many of the people who removed content or joined that group hype have talked to me, told me their opinions, and gave me the opportunity to work on their missing trust together. I am on good terms with almost all of the old staff with maybe 5 exceptions (MoM, HM for being the reason this went down and one old staff on bad terms; the other two people I am neutral towards as I never spoke with them and don't know their thoughts) Every old staff member who reached out to me has their own experiences and opinioms and don't always agree with me, but they are more than valued and often play important roles in our staff as well - whether student or grad. In fact, I really enjoyed every single talk with them and appreciate anyone who reached out despite their fear of rejection, as that takes a lot of courage
The old MoM and HM were banned later on, yes, you can feel free to ask them for the exact reason I put in. The previous behaviour of theirs is unwelcome on site, and they created a horrible environment for people at the time this happened, just because of a "money grabbing" feature that was completely changed back anyway for other reasons. One of them was still logging in on alt for reasons I don't really understand, because they made sure everyone knew their hate towards Dan and the site. So why log in almost regularly even after almost a year? I guess I know why ,but that is just an assumption, so I will not voice it here
Aside from that, if you paid attention to the site development, you would also see that since then (but not because of that), new users got free VIP, people with jobs get discount, linking accounts gets a whole 50% discount, and such
I am mostly replying to clear some things up because I don't enjoy reactions that are based on false facts. I wanted to stay on WoP US as a temporary solution, but the community has been loving and welcoming, which was really unexpected considering the circumstances they went through
This is something that happened almost a whole year ago now, I even unbanned one of the 4 bans that took place when I took over, so technically it is only 3
I hope that this could clear up confusion and misunderstanding. I would like to see this message public because I am mostly writing it for the very few that might end up seeing it. Considering the nature of this post, you already made up your mind about me and that is okay. But I want to give my insight first hand, as I don't enjoy someone trying to slander my name based on more accusations of those people who were banned for false accusations in the first place
Magical regards,
Andrew Sutherland (WoP US)
By the way, I am only asking this anonymously because of privacy concerns regarding this account (never use Tumblr anyway)
Added in a later message: "Andrew here again, please add this xD I saw that you have made clarifications regarding there possibly being more to these accusations, my response was mainly aimed towards the person asking the question, but I do admit that I thought that that message was originally from you, the blog writer, and only saw your response later on (I am not used to tumblr and on phone it doesnt show all on one screen, oops). Just wanted to clarify that as it may explain some wording of mine!"
No hard feelings on my side, thanks for the clarification! If I can share both sides of the story, that is what I want to do and you've allowed me to share yours. It's greatly appreciated and I hope this clears the air a little bit.
NOTE: I can't verify if this person is who they say they are, the anonymous submissions are anonymous to me as well. I have no reason to doubt or suspect that it's someone else writing in their name, but I want to note that with anonymity there is a risk of abuse and impersonation. I don't think that's the case here though.

Can Brazil’s new carbon market turn tide on decades of exploiting indigenous peoples?
Brazil is poised to create a regulated carbon market, which would be one of the largest in the world.
Critics say agriculture excluded from the cap and trade system, though it is the highest-emitting sector.
The bill has safeguards allowing indigenous peoples to participate in the market as partners.
But there are fears a green gold rush will just put indigenous lands under greater pressure.
NBS Brazil Alliance released a good practice guide for consulting with Indigenous people on nature-based solutions.

How Chatbots Are Disrupting the Banking Sector in the Age of AI?

As we embrace artificial intelligence (AI) and go through digital changes, chatbots have become one of the most important technologies used to transform customer service in all businesses. Where banking is one of these sectors at the forefront of change. The use of AI-powered chatbots offers support around the clock, customizes customer interactions, and enhances operational efficiency which deals a huge blow to traditional banking practices. In this blog, I examine how chatbots are changing banking with particular emphasis on the UAE market and explain why financial institutions in UAE need to consider investing in chatbot development services.
The Rise of AI Chatbots in Banking
The adoption of AI-based chatbots in banking go beyond adopting new technology. It marks an evolution from rudimentary scripted interfaces to conversational systems powered by Natural Language Processing (NLP).
In Juniper’s research, it states that bank losses due to customer service over $7.3 billion will be saved because of operational efficiency by 2025 which is attributed to using chatbots. You can already see this shift taking place in the UAE as companies like Emirates NBD and Mashreq Bank are using AI based chatbots for improved customer service.
Key Reasons for Chatbot Adoption in UAE Banks
The UAE is especially poised to spearhead chatbot implementation in the banking sector due to:
Taking a Digital-First Approach: As part of the smart economy initiative, the bank’s digital transformation moves are heuristic, so they need innovation.
Considered digitally savvy: Increased access to technology through smartphones and higher levels of digital literacy economical savvy Automatic banking solutions.
Backed by Regulations: UC’s Central Bank actively promotes digitized banking systems together with sandbox innovations that allow uncontrolled frameworks.
Core Applications Of Chatbots In The Banking Sector
AI chatbots do not serve merely as communication interfaces for FAQs. Rather, within the banking industry they accomplish essential business tactical functions:
1. Customer Service And Self-Service Gateways
As intelligent agents, chatbots can help achieve more than just balances and provide account activity summaries for clients. They also assist in computing card block requests which greatly cuts down wait times thereby increasing customer satisfaction.
2. Lead Creation And Business Onboarding
Chatbots are used by banks to walk users through product selection and onboarding, accelerating previously lengthy procedures.
3. Fraud Alerting Out Services
With core-banking integrations AI know-how makes smart chat services capable of detecting unusual transactions and alerting clients at real-time thus ensuring high levels trust in rapid response security mechanisms
4. Loan Application and Status Tracking
Chatbots make the application process easier and provide up-to-the-minute information on loan approvals, improving transparency and alleviating the call center burden.
5. Personalized Financial Advice
Sophisticated chatbots can use pattern recognition to analyze customer actions, enabling them to improve upselling by providing personalized advice tailored to customer behavior.
How Chatbots Improve Banking Operations?
The impact of chatbots goes well beyond customer service interactions:
Cost Reduction: Chatbots dealing with simple queries relieve live agents from spending time on basic issues and allow them to focus on complicated queries.
Scalability: There are no additional costs when a chatbot is able to simultaneously manage thousands of conversations.
Uniformity: Automated responses maintain standardization which reduces error caused by variability of human responses.
Marketing strategy refinement and service improvement can be achieved through valuable data generated by chatbots during their routine operations.
Real World Examples From The Banking Sector In UAE
Liv. by Emirates NBD: This digital bank employs chatbots for managing accounts, onboarding customers, customer support, and backend processes as well as front-end services all using natural language interfaces.
Mashreq’s AI-powered Bot “Mashreq Neo”: Provides multi-lingual assistance across retail and corporate banking services including retail client servicing as well as corporate banking activities.
These illustrations emphasize the ability of banks in the UAE to meet local demand while proving operational efficiency through investments in technology.Integration Considerations and Challenges
While there are many advantages, integrating chatbots into banking systems poses some challenges:
Security and Privacy Compliance – Banks need to maintain secure end-to-end encryption as well as comply with data protection laws.
Natural Language Processing (NLP) in the UAE – Given that the UAE has a multicultural population, understanding local dialects is important when servicing customers through chatbots.
Legacy system integration- Older banking systems often need major redesigns in order to implement chatbot interfaces.
To address these issues, banks usually outsource to chatbot development companies based in UAE for compliance expertise and knowledge of regional regulations.
Why Use Chatbot Development Services Based in The UAE?
A remote contractor makes it more complicated by:
Adherence to compliance on bank policy and regulations specific to the UAE.
Provides local language support for Arabic and English speaking clients.
Tailor-made services that meet client needs.
Provides proactive help with strategy as well as ongoing maintenance of systems.
UAE-based chatbot development companies bring a nuanced understanding of regional market needs, consumer behavior, and banking protocols. They aid financial institutions in using conversational AI technologies effectively during deployment, not just functionally but strategically.
The Future: Chatbots + AI + Banking = Hyper-Personalisation
In the future, we will see hyper-personalized banking experiences that will be driven by the integration of AI and machine learning with chatbot frameworks. A few of these innovations include:
Bots that predict user needs based on previous transactions
Cross-platform app inclusivity through mobile, websites, or even social media.
Voice-enabled chatbots for hands-free banking services.
Innovations like these aren’t too far off to imagine considering the UAE’s swift movement towards digital banking excellence; in fact, they are just around the corner.
Wrap-Up Thoughts
Adoption and use of chatbots within a business has increasingly become fundamental considering their application in banking—improving operational efficiency while enhancing customer experience at scale. For banks located in UAE, it enables superpower status on leading trends instead of catching up with them.
Investing in professional chatbot development services makes sense if you're either a traditional bank wanting to digitize or a fintech startup looking for expansion opportunities.

Market Overview & Regional Analysis
North America currently leads the micronized cellulose market, accounting for over 35% of global revenue, due to stringent food safety regulations and high R&D investments in pharmaceutical applications. The U.S. FDA's GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) designation for cellulose-based food additives has further accelerated adoption rates.
Europe follows closely, with Germany and France driving demand through their well-established pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. The region's emphasis on sustainable packaging solutions presents additional growth avenues. Meanwhile, Asia-Pacific emerges as the fastest-growing market, where expanding middle-class populations and rapid industrialization in China and India are creating substantial demand across end-use sectors.
Key Market Drivers and Opportunities
The market growth stems from three primary factors: First, the food industry's need for clean-label ingredients as consumers increasingly avoid synthetic additives. Second, pharmaceutical companies require advanced excipients that enhance drug delivery efficiency. Third, the cosmetics sector's shift toward natural thickeners and stabilizers in personal care formulations.
Emerging opportunities include nanotechnology applications, where micronized cellulose's nano-fibrillated forms show promise in high-strength composites. The increasing use in biodegradable packaging films and 3D printing materials also presents untapped potential. Moreover, agricultural waste utilization for cellulose production opens new sustainable sourcing channels.
Challenges & Restraints
Despite promising growth, the market faces several hurdles. Production costs remain relatively high compared to synthetic alternatives, limiting adoption in price-sensitive markets. Variability in raw material quality, particularly from different wood pulp sources, can affect consistency. Furthermore, the lack of standardized testing methods for nanocellulose products creates regulatory uncertainties across international markets.

WHAT ARE NATURE - BASED - SOLUTIONS.
As climate risks rise, more cities are turning to nature itself for answers. Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) use ecosystems to tackle urban challenges like flooding, heatwaves, and pollution — while improving lives.
🌿 What are Nature-Based Solutions (NbS) — and why do cities need them?
Here’s what makes NbS essential:
✔️ Use natural systems like trees, wetlands & green roofs
✔️ Cut urban heat, clean air & manage stormwater
✔️ Cost-effective and adaptable to local needs
✔️ Help cities both adapt to and mitigate climate change
✔️ Engage communities and boost resilience
✔️ Scalable across formal and informal areas
When cities invest in nature, they invest in health, equity, and long-term resilience.
Would you trust a tree more than a concrete wall in a flood? In many cases, it’s the smarter bet.
📢 Time to rethink how we build resilience?

[IOTE2025 Shanghai Exhibitor] Shandong Yunze-This company's revenue increased by 43.57% in 2024
IOTE 2025, the 23rd International Internet of Things Exhibition Shanghai, will be held in Shanghai New International Expo Center from June 18 to 20, 2025. This time, it will join hands with MWC Shanghai to write a new chapter in the Internet of Things and mobile communications!
Shandong Yunze Information Technology Co., Ltd. will participate in this exhibition. Before the opening, we interviewed the company to give you a sneak peek at what Shandong Yunze will bring to the exhibition.
Exhibitor Introduction
Shandong Yunze Information Technology Co., Ltd.
Booth No.: N5A70
June 18-20, 2025
Shanghai New International Expo Center
Exhibitor Interview
Developing new quality productivity is an inherent requirement and an important focus for promoting high-quality development. This year's government work report clearly proposed "developing new quality productivity in accordance with local conditions and accelerating the construction of a modern industrial system". How do you understand the relationship between the Internet of Things and new quality productivity? What practices does the company have in promoting intelligent production and collaborative innovation in the industrial chain?
As one of the integrated carriers of the new generation of information technology, the Internet of Things drives the development of new quality productivity through three core capabilities: First, the intelligent perception system relies on the sensor network to realize real-time data collection in the entire domain and build an accurate digital mirror of the physical world; second, the data interconnection mechanism breaks the information island of traditional industries and realizes the global scheduling and collaborative optimization of production factors through cross-system protocol standardization; third, the real-time response capability uses edge computing and AI decision-making models to form a closed-loop control of "perception-analysis-execution" and dynamically adapt to changes in the production environment. The synergy of these three characteristics is reshaping the production paradigm.
At present, AI big models are developing rapidly, which has a profound impact and positive driving effect on the development of the Internet of Things. How do you view the development of technologies such as AI big models? What layout and plans does the company have in this regard? Please give an example.
The rapid development of AI big models has injected new momentum into the field of the Internet of Things. Its core value lies in promoting the transition of devices from "connection" to "intelligence" through efficient processing of heterogeneous data and intelligent decision-making.

Why IoT Gateway Is Key to Modern Water Management

Water is one of the most critical natural resources for life, agriculture, and industries. With growing demand and climate-related challenges, managing water sustainably is more important than ever. This is where modern technologies like the IoT gateway play a crucial role in bridging traditional systems with real-time, connected water management solutions.
IoT gateways are helping organizations collect, process, and act on water data in ways that were not possible before. In this blog, we’ll explore how an IoT gateway works, its role in sustainable water management, and how it supports various use cases such as IoT tank level monitoring, industrial IoT, and IoT remote monitoring solutions.
What Is an IoT Gateway?
An IoT gateway is a bridge between IoT devices and cloud-based systems or local servers. It gathers data from sensors and devices, processes it locally or forwards it to the cloud for analytics. This reduces latency, improves performance, and enhances data security.
In water systems, the IoT gateway connects sensors monitoring flow, pressure, tank levels, and water quality. It ensures the data is reliable, timely, and actionable, which is vital for smart and sustainable decisions.
Why Water Systems Need an IoT Gateway
Water infrastructure often includes remote or hard to access areas like reservoirs, pumping stations, tanks, and treatment plants. These areas generate huge volumes of data, but without a reliable gateway, this data may not be collected efficiently.
Here’s why using an IoT gateway in water systems is essential:
Real-time data collection from multiple field sensors
Edge processing to filter and analyze data before transmission
Stable connectivity even in remote or rural areas
Integration with SCADA, cloud platforms, and mobile apps
Support for various communication protocols (LoRa, NB-IoT, 4G, Wi-Fi, Ethernet)
By using an IoT gateway, organizations can avoid manual data handling and get access to continuous monitoring and insights.
How IoT Gateway Enables Sustainable Water Management
1. Real-Time Water Monitoring
IoT gateways enable real-time monitoring of key parameters like water flow, consumption, tank levels, and leakage. When integrated with IoT tank level monitoring systems, they help ensure that tanks are neither underfilled nor overflowing, saving water and energy.
With real-time alerts, water managers can detect unusual consumption patterns or leaks early, reducing waste and improving system efficiency.
2. Water Quality Tracking
Maintaining water quality is crucial for both drinking and industrial use. Sensors that measure parameters such as pH, turbidity, TDS, and chlorine levels can feed data to the IoT gateway. The gateway then transmits this data securely to monitoring systems for review.
This enables faster decision-making and ensures that contaminated water doesn't reach consumers.
3. Smart Irrigation Control
In agriculture, sustainable water use is a major concern. With IoT gateways, smart irrigation systems can operate based on soil moisture levels, weather forecasts, and crop type. The gateway gathers and processes this data to automate irrigation, reducing overwatering and saving valuable resources.
This setup also allows integration with IoT device monitoring tools that track the health of irrigation pumps, valves, and field sensors.

Also, gateways support secure data transmission, ensuring that sensitive water usage or operational data is not exposed to threats. Most modern gateways include:
Data encryption
Authentication protocols
OTA (Over-the-Air) updates
Firewall support
These features are crucial for secure IoT device management and ensure long-term reliability of the system.
Use Case: Smart City Water Network
In a smart city project, municipal bodies can use IoT gateways to connect distributed sensors across water tanks, treatment plants, pipelines, and public taps. The gateway aggregates all the data, allowing for:
Leak detection in underground pipelines
Fair billing through usage-based metering
Reducing non-revenue water
Ensuring 24x7 supply in underserved areas
This system can work alongside IoT tank level monitoring to prevent overflow in urban storage tanks.

Brazil: Investors must seize NBS and climate-smart tech opportunities now
The seeds of a new climate investment revolution are being planted in Brazil, say Niamh McCarthy and Kyle Saukas of Climate Advisors

Brazil's historic accomplishment in reducing Amazon rainforest deforestation rates to their lowest levels since 2018 within the first year of President Luiz Inácio "Lula" da Silva's administration signals a paradigm shift in climate action. After years of rapidly increasing deforestation, the Lula administration has shown that course-correction shifts at the scale needed to meet Paris Agreement goals are possible.
Brazil's rapid ability to corral deforestation is a sign that the nation will be fertile ground for a climate-driven agricultural revolution as it works to mitigate ecosystem collapse in the rainforest responsible for irrigating the vast majority of its production.
Brazil's growing role in climate leadership and mounting climate transitions provide a unique opportunity for the Brazilian agriculture sector to mobilise unprecedented investment in climate-smart technology and nature-based solutions (NBS).
The world stage is set for Brazil to lead on global climate action, especially for agricultural and nature conservation, with a level of influence that we may not have seen before. Investors should see this as a ripe opportunity to capitalise on the growing economic benefits of investing in a variety of natural and agricultural climate solutions. Climate transitions are creating a new operating environment with Brazil in a strong position to mobilise significant financing to both mitigate risks and accelerate solutions.
