Why you selected that database for your research, and how you accessed it from the library's website:

[Audio] I chose the academic database through Thomas Jefferson library website because it provides access to peer-reviewed articles and scholarly publications relevant to my research topic, which is urban water demand prediction..

[Audio] I conducted a keyword search using terms like "population growth," "water consumption," "water demand,". I also used Boolean operators like "AND" to combine these keywords to narrow down the results..

[Audio] I applied filters to limit the search results to articles published in the last 5 years to ensure the information is up-to-date. I also filtered for peer-reviewed articles to ensure quality and reliability. I selected the "full-text availability" filter to access the complete article..
