Reservoir sedimentation is a significant issue that shortens reservoir life and has an
impact on operations like irrigation, hydropower, and drinking water supply since it
significantly diminishes ...
Zeha River is one of a perennial River in the Upper Tekeze Basin, Ethiopia that has not been
well developed and utilized for irrigation purpose. This study is initiated to assess Land
Potential Suitability ...
This study was conducted to evaluate the impact of future climate change and irrigation expansion
on the available surface water resources of the Gilgel Abay catchment, which is located within the
Abay River Basin in ...
This thesis assessed the performance of Garno small-scale irrigation scheme with the objective of
performance evaluation of the irrigation scheme using internal and external performance
indicators, to ...
Reservoir sedimentation is a gradual accumulation of the incoming sediment load from a
river. The main reason of land degradation and reservoir sedimentation is soil erosion. So
that, modelling of sediment ...
Floods are common to many parts of Ethiopia causing a lot of losses to human lives as
well as damage to property. This thesis was conducted to know the extent of flood
inundation area for Azuari River. ...
Elidar earth fill dam is located near Elidar town, Afar Region, North East Ethiopia. Elidar
earth fill dam was designed to harvest 2.56 MCM of water from a catchment area of about
130 km

to introduce a modern ...
Irrigation is a way of bringing water to crops by using force or gravity to move it from
the source to the field, in order to make up for the lack of moisture in the soil wher e the
crop's roots are. There are ...
Flood is the devastating natural events as it causes massive destructive of life, economy
and infrastructure. The main objective of this study was Flood Inundation mapping Using
HEC-RAS and Geospatial Techniques. ...
The development of irrigation systems has long been recognized as an important tool to
encourage economic growth and rural development in Ethiopia, as well as a foundation for food
security and poverty ...
Systematic assessment of available water and potential land surface suitable for irrigation at
Basin level is essential for the planning and decision-making of new irrigation development
projects. ...
Land use land cover change (LULC) is a very significant issue in terms of global dynamics
and their responses to hydrological features and the soil and water management of a
watershed because it has a ...
In semi-arid regions where rainfall is erratic and insufficient, even during the rainy
season, supplemental irrigation is essential to stabilize and increase crop yield. Therefore,
for the sustainable use ...
Flow estimation at a point in a river is vital for several hydrologic applications, including
flood forecasting, water resource management, and development applications.Estimating
the Rainfall-Runoff condition of Rib ...
Numerous hydrological modeling studies have been carried out in several basins with
various climatic, land-use, soil, and geological conditions. The applied models have
different structure to ...
Estimation of time of concentration faces a great extent of uncertainties in hydrological
design provision and introduction of water resource management policies. Researches has
shown that the estimation of time of ...
In Ethiopia the use of groundwater for agriculture is very low. Many irrigation schemes obtain
water from river diversions in which only farmers with land near the rivers gets profit from
irrigation, while others are ...
Climate variability and land use change are major factors that affect watershed
hydrology regionally and globally. This study aims to determine the effects of climate
variability and land use change in the ...
In Ethiopia, available rainfall records are mainly limited to daily time steps. Though
rainfall time series data at shorter time steps are important for various purposes like
modeling of erosion processes and flood ...
Population growth, and future developments, are occurring at an ever-increasing phase. These
process results in an increased demand for water sectors. Water is not only influenced by human
activities, but ...
