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
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
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
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
Precision surface irrigation with conjunctive water useSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 6 - Trang 1-17 - 2020
Arif A. Anwar, Waqas Ahmad
The Indus Basin Irrigation System is characterized as a gravity surface irrigation system, with minimal on-line or off-line storage and limited distribution control. An important characteristic is the limited water availability. On field irrigation within the Indus Basin Irrigation System is almost entirely using surface irrigation and only very few farms adopting pressurized irrigation systems. T...... hiện toàn bộ
A systems approach to investigating non-functionality in rural water schemes: a case studySustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 7 - Trang 1-10 - 2021
Mduduzi Innocent Shongwe, Sabelo Dlamini
Despite huge investments towards ensuring sustainable water schemes in rural Africa, these schemes continue to fail. Non-functionality in these schemes transcends across a plethora of constraints and this calls for systems thinking interventions. System thinking is important when dealing with complex issues such as non-functionality because it allows decision-makers to locate important interventio...... hiện toàn bộ
The water efficiency gapSustainable Water Resources Management - Tập 1 - Trang 315-324 - 2015
Caroline Golin, Matt Cox, Marilyn Brown, Valerie Thomas
Water managers throughout the world are increasingly challenged to provide reliable and affordable water supplies to growing human populations, under conditions of climate variability and competing demands. At the same time, there is growing recognition of the interconnections between water and energy use (the water-energy nexus), and calls for integrating water and energy policy. If any regulator...... hiện toàn bộ
Removal of hardness using natural and synthetic water treatment system for safe and sustainable water supply in the Indian contextSustainable Water Resources Management - - 2023
M. S. Madhusudhan, H. J. Surendra, H. J. Rajendra, V. Chinmay, U. S. Udaygowda
Hardness in drinking water is undesirable, and hardness can be removed by different methods, such as the lime-soda process, reverse osmosis, ion exchange method, distillation, etc. This study attempts to develop a low-cost water filter to remove hardness with the help of various low-cost available materials. Hardness in water is generally high in groundwater; this causes scaling actions on vessels...... hiện toàn bộ
