Calibration and validation of SWAT model using stream flow and sediment load for Mojo watershed, EthiopiaSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 4 - Trang 937-949 - 2017
Zelalem Biru, Devendra Kumar
The main aim of this study was to setup and evaluate the applicability of physically based soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) model with ArcGIS version 9.3 in assessing the runoff and sediment load from Mojo watershed having a total area of 2017.21 km2 situated in central Oromia Regional state, Ethiopia. In this study for stream flow simulation parameters involving surface runoff (CN2.mgt) and ...... hiện toàn bộ
Constructed Wetlands for removal of Phosphorus from Domestic Wastewater-A Patent ReviewSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 8 - Trang 1-16 - 2022
Vandana Patyal, Dipika Jaspal, Amit K. Tiwari, Kanchan Khare
Research related to phosphorus (P) removal in domestic wastewater treatment has increased manifolds due to stress on freshwater resources globally. Constructed Wetlands (CWs) have gained popularity as an innovative, sustainable, and cost-effective technology in this direction. This review summarizes the various patenting patterns and innovations related to the application of CWs for the removal of...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeling the impact of historical and future land use land cover changes on the hydrological response of an Ethiopian watershedSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 10 - Trang 1-16 - 2024
Motuma Shiferaw Regasa, Michael Nones
Land Use Land Cover (LULC) is generally considered one of the key factors influencing the hydrological processes and sediment output in arid and semi-arid watersheds. Focusing on the Ethiopian Fincha watershed, the current study applies the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model to evaluate how LULC changes affect the watershed hydrological dynamics. Utilizing the available stream flow time s...... hiện toàn bộ
Rethinking the sustainability of rural water delivery under the community ownership and management modelSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 8 - Trang 1-15 - 2022
Godwin Kotoku, Tyhra Carolyn Kumasi
Community ownership and management (COM) is, without a doubt, a viable alternative for rural water management. However, the extent to which communities control their water supply infrastructure in terms of engaging in crucial decisions and the performance of all stakeholders along the service delivery chain—from national to community levels—continues to be a challenge. The goal of this research is...... hiện toàn bộ
Development of a knowledge base to support the consideration of groundwater protection in land-use planningSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 5 - Trang 401-413 - 2017
Jérôme Cerutti, Roxane Lavoie, René Lefebvre
Groundwater is an essential resource for water supply, but it is vulnerable to the potential impacts of contaminant emissions from human activities. It is widely recognized that the effects of human activities on groundwater quality and quantity can be mitigated, in large part, by appropriate land-use planning because it plays a central role in groundwater protection and conservation. However, gro...... hiện toàn bộ
Implementation of water-saving agro-technologies and irrigation methods in agriculture of Uzbekistan on a large scale as an urgent issueSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 8 - Trang 1-16 - 2022
Imiya Chathuranika, Bhabishya Khaniya, Krisha Neupane, Koriyev M. Rustamjonovich, Upaka Rathnayake
Usable water resource is limited, even though 71% of world is covered by water. Therefore, enough conflicts to the usable water can be found throughout the world. Usable water for irrigation is a top priority, probably it would be seconding only to the drink water supply. However, prioritizing one usage over another is challenging to many stakeholders. Therefore, sustainable water usage is essenti...... hiện toàn bộ
Geosciences in the assessment of thermal and mineral groundwater systems in N-Portugal: a reviewSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 5 - Trang 1511-1523 - 2017
J. M. Marques, P. M. Carreira
In the North of Portugal, thermal and mineral groundwater resources (e.g., Chaves CO2-rich thermal—76 °C—waters) are being used in the local Spas, and are considered one of the main sources of local/regional development/income. A multidisciplinary approach, including geological, tectonic, geochemical and isotopic (2H, 18O, 13C, 87Sr, 3H, 14C and 3He/4He) methodologies, was used to assess local/reg...... hiện toàn bộ
