Sudden changes or the stoppage of flows in pipeline systems causes a hydraulic transient or water hammer event. A large proportion of water supply systems have traditionally been analyzed and designed without the consideration ...

Water status detection by thermal imaging, is a non-invasive and rapid assessment method, It provides great potential to improve irrigation planning. In this study the application of thermal imaging through mobile phones ...

General understanding of the water resource base on both surface and ground water, and their interaction is one of the gaps of water resources development in Ethiopia. Water resources management has limited in the Megech ...

Soil erosion is the most serious problem in the Ethiopian highlands and gully erosion is the principal source of soil erosion and sedimentation for on-site and off-site areas. Gully erosion has high negative impact on both ...

Land degradation by soil erosion and its induced threat is a serious problem in the world specifically in northwestern Ethiopian highland. To control this adverse impact different soil and water conservation (SWC) practices ...

Conservation and efficient management of water resources are crucial for the sustainability of irrigated agriculture. One approach to conserve water for agriculture is to use field water management technologies or conservation ...

Despite the prominence of the view that cooperation in water resources management is desirable, investment and operational decisions for specific projects are often made without full consideration of potential downstream ...

Soil erosion is one of the most important environmental problems, and it remains as a major threat to soil fertility and reservoir sedimentation in Ethiopia. Estimation of erosion and sediment yield is one of the prerequisites ...

Soil and water conservation structures (SWCS) can influence the amount of sediment yield leaving from a catchment. The extent of this influence depends heavily on hydro-climatic conditions in the upstream catchments. This ...

In Sub-Saharan Africa small scale irrigation is developing rapidly. Whilst emphasis is mainly placed on water resource availability and access for irrigation, less attention is paid to the interaction of water management ...
