Groundwater Potential Assessment Using GIS and Remote Sensing Techniques: Case Study of West Arsi Zone, Ethiopia
(MDPI, 2022-06-07)Groundwater is a crucial source of water supply due to its continuous availability, reasonable natural quality, and being easily diverted directly to the poor community more cheaply and quickly. The West Arsi Zone residents ... -
Hydraulic Methods for Catastrophes: Foods, Droughts, Environmental Disasters
(Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 2008) -
Hydrological responses to land use land cover changes in the Fincha'a watershed, Ethiopia
(MDPI, 2021-08-31)Land use land cover (LULC) changes are highly pronounced in African countries, as they are characterized by an agriculture-based economy and a rapidly growing population. Understanding how land use/cover changes (LULCC) ... -
Leveraging the GEV Model to Estimate Flood Due to Extreme Rainfall in Ungauged Dry Catchments of the Gobi Region
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2025-03-12)Extreme high flows can have negative economic, social, and ecological effects and are expected to become more severe in many regions due to climate change. Knowledge of maximum flow regimes and estimation of extreme rainfall ... -
Management of the Storage Reservoir Influencing the Protected Natural Environment - Upper Narew River System Case Study
(Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 2008)This study introduces GPS measurements into the Narew National Park. The main task of the campaign was to develop three-dimensional information as a help in creating Numerical Model of the area. The whole methodology and ... -
Modelling the Effects of Dam Reservoir Backwater Fluctuations on the Hydrodynamics of a Small Mountain Stream
(MDPI, 2022-10-08)The water depth and flow velocity of a river may be temporarily disturbed by the water level fluctuations connected with the operation of artificial dam reservoirs located downstream (so-called backwater fluctuations (BF)). ... -
Modelling the impact of historical and future Land Use Land Cover changes on the hydrological response of an Ethiopian watershed
(Springer, 2024-01-10)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 ... -
Numerical modeling of the hydro-morphodynamics of a distributary channel of the Po River Delta (Italy) during the spring 2009 flood event
(MDPI, 2020-05-30)One-dimensional (1D) numerical models generally provide reliable results when applied to simulate river hydraulics and morphodynamics upstream of the tidal influence, given the predominantly unidirectional flow conditions. ... -
Numerical modelling as a support tool for river habitat studies: An Italian case study
(MDPI, 2019-03-07)Numerical modelling is becoming a major tool for supporting environmental studies at different scales, thanks to the ability of up-to-date codes to reproduce the complex mechanisms of the natural environment in quite a ... -
Numerical Solutions of Two-Dimensional Mass Transport Equation in Flowing Surface Waters
(Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 2008) -
On the main components of landscape evolution modelling of river systems
(Springer, 2020-01-23)Currently, the use of numerical models for reproducing the evolution of river systems and landscapes is part of the day-by-day research activities of fuvial engineers and geomorphologists. However, despite landscape evolution ... -
Parameter Uncertainty Analysis for Streamflow Simulation Using SWAT Model in Nashe Watershed, Blue Nile River Basin, Ethiopia
(Hindawi, 2022-07-19)The hydrological model is an important tool in water resource management, allocation, and prediction. However, the hydrological models are subject to the uncertainty resulting from di erent sources of errors involved in ... -
Past and Future Land Use/Land Cover Changes in the Ethiopian Fincha Sub-Basin
(MDPI, 2022-08-04)The increasing human pressure on African regions is recognizable when looking at Land Use Land Cover (LULC) change maps, generally derived from satellite imagery. Using the Ethiopian Fincha watershed as a case study, the ... -
A Review on Land Use and Land Cover Change in Ethiopian Basins
(MDPI, 2021-06-01)Land Use Land Cover (LULC) changes analysis is one of the most useful methodologies to understand how the land was used in the past years, what types of detections are to be expected in the future, as well as the driving ... -
Spatiotemporal variations of riverine flood fatalities: 70 years global to regional perspective
(IWHR Wiley, 2023-05-14)Floods are among the most devastating natural hazards worldwide. While rainfall is the primary trigger of floods, human activities and climate change can exacerbate the impacts of floods and lead to more significant economic ... -
SWAT model-based quantification of the impact of land use land cover change on sediment yield in the Fincha watershed, Ethiopia
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2023-09-07)In recent years, Ethiopia is facing problems due to soil erosion, mainly because of the conversion of natural vegetation into cultivated land to answer to increasing human pressure. Such changes in coverage are fostering ... -
Tidal modulation of river-flood deposits: How low can you go?
(The Geological Society of America, 2020)Quantification of the interaction between river discharge and tides is vital to characterize fluvio-deltaic systems, to identify diagnostic elements of tidal signatures in the rock record, and to reconstruct paleogeographies. ... -
