Applying ADCPs for long term monitoring of SSC in rivers
Aleixo, Rui; Guerrero, Massimo; Nones, Michael; Ruther, Nils (American Geophysical Union, 2019-12)The flow rate and the suspended sediment concentration (SSC) of two different rivers draining into the Adriatic Sea basin, the Secchia in Italy and the Devoll in Albania, were analysed by processing the data collected in ... -
Assessment of Human-Induced Effects on Sea/Brackish Water Chlorophyll-a Concentration in Ha Long Bay of Vietnam with Google Earth Engine
Quang, Nguyen Hong; Nguyen, Minh Nguyen; Paget, Matt; Anstee, Janet; Viet, Nguyen Duc; Nones, Michael; Tuan, Vu Anh (MDPI, 2022-09-27)Chlorophyll-a is one of the most important water quality parameters that can be observed by satellite imagery. It plays a significant function in the aquatic environments of rapidly developing coastal cities such as Ha ... -
Can sediments play a role in river flood risk mapping? Learning from selected European examples
Nones, Michael; Guo, Yiwei (Springer Nature, 2023-09-28)Background: Climate change and increasing anthropogenic pressure are two of the major drivers of increasing extreme events like droughts and floods. To deal with the increasing number of flooding events hitting Europe in ... -
Concept-based Integration of project management and strategic management of rubber dam projects using the SWOT–AHP method
Ghorbani, Mohammad Kazem; Hamidifar, Hossein; Skoulikaris, Charalampos; Nones, Michael (MDPI, 2022-02)The utilization of rubber dams for water supply and irrigated agriculture is becoming an emerging practice in developing countries. In this study, based on the SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) analysis, ... -
Dealing with sediment transport in flood risk management
Nones, Michael (Springer, 2019-03-04)Flooding events are rising across European watercourses because of changing climatic conditions and anthropogenic pressure. To deal with these events, the European Floods Directive requires the development of flood risk ... -
Deriving Planform Morphology and Vegetation Coverage From Remote Sensing to Support River Management Applications
Boothroyd, Richard J.; Nones, Michael; Guerrero, Massimo (2021-05-04)With the increasing availability of big geospatial data (e.g., multi-spectral satellite imagery) and access to platforms that support multi-temporal analyses (e.g., cloud-based computing, Geographical Information Systems, ... -
Hydrological responses to land use land cover changes in the Fincha'a watershed, Ethiopia
Kenea, Urgessa; Adeba, Dereje; Regasa, Motuma Shiferaw; Nones, Michael (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) ... -
Modelling the Effects of Dam Reservoir Backwater Fluctuations on the Hydrodynamics of a Small Mountain Stream
Liro, Maciej; Nones, Michael; Mikuś, Paweł; Plesiński, Karol (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)). ... -
Numerical modeling of the hydro-morphodynamics of a distributary channel of the Po River Delta (Italy) during the spring 2009 flood event
Nones, Michael; Maselli, Vittorio; Varrani, Arianna (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
Nones, Michael (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 ... -
On the main components of landscape evolution modelling of river systems
Nones, Michael (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 ... -
Past and Future Land Use/Land Cover Changes in the Ethiopian Fincha Sub-Basin
Regasa, Motuma Shiferaw; Nones, Michael (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
Regasa, Motuma Shiferaw; Nones, Michael; Adeba, Dereje (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
Hamidifar, Hossein; Nones, Michael (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
Regasa, Motuma Shiferaw; Nones, Michael (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 ... -
