The main objective of this research is to assess the available water resources potential of Simada Wereda for sustainable development. In this paper the annual groundwater recharge, surface runoff, ...

Rainfall of a place can be completely defined if the intensities, durations and frequencies of the various storms occurring at that place are known. Intensity­ Duration-Frequency (IDF) relationship ...

Currently, there are five reservoirs proposed for irrigation purpose only in Lake Tana sub basin. These are: Gumera-A, Megech, Ribb, Gilgel Abbay-Band Jema. Among these Megech, Ribb, Gumera-A and Gilgel ...

The mam purpose of this study was mainly to accurately estimate the inflow components of Lake Tana from both gauged and un-gauged catchments for water balance modeling. Distributed physically ...

Genale-Dawa Basin is the third largest basin in Ethiopia in its area coverage. It has a basin area of 172681 square kilometres. The study area is mainly limited to the northern part of the basin ...

The Awash River Basin, covering an area of about 112,696 km"2, is located in the central portion of Ethiopia. The mean annual rainfall of the basin is estimated to be _737mm but the mean annual ...

This paper deals with simulation of stream flow at ungauged catchments, the case of upper Tekeze basin, using HBV-96 rainfall-runoff model. Parameters calibrated with the model are extrapolated ...

Reservoir operation has become a major focus of water resources planning and management. Traditionally, reservoir operation is based on heuristic procedures, embracing rule curves and, to a certain ...

In early days of application of analytical techniques in the filed of hydrology, low flow studies of a river stream were basically carried out to analyze its ability to supply a particular ...

Climate change is expected to increase both the magnitude and frequency of extreme precipitation events, which may lead to more intense and frequent river flooding. This flooding may cause tremendous impact ...
