Gis and Remote Sensing Applications for Rainwater Harvesting in the Syrian Desert (al-badia)

This paper attempts to describe the state of Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) techniques and the contributions of GIS and Remote Sensing (RS) technologies for RWH in The Syrian Desert (AL-Badia). Studies were conducted using physiographic factors of The Syrian Desert (the natural factors, the climatic factors, the pastoral cover, and animal wealth) for the applications of GIS and Remote sensing techn...

Investigations of Rainwater harvesting system from Rooftop catchment (Case study: babolrood catchment)

Introducing suitable places for establishing rainwater catchment systems in Latyan Watershed

Arid and semi-arid regions with highly variable rainfall and periods of drought or unpredictable floods have severely affected residents' water shortages and they are often living in insecure areas. Rainwater catchment systems are one of the available solutions to overcome water shortage and runoff management in these areas. Surface runoff is a potential source of water that, with proper manage...

Investigating the conditions of Kabodkamar watershed to create a rainwater catchment system

The lack of water in arid and semi-arid areas has become a serious crisis, endangering living conditions. Sloping lands in the geographical and natural areas of Central Province have always been critical areas as sources of sediment production and erosion. Meanwhile, these areas provide valuable capacity for productive employment and conservation of water and soil resources through the construc...

Analysis of Quran and Hadith on Confronting Water Pollution Using Rainwater Catchment Systems

Today, water quality reduction and water pollution are some of the challenges in different countries around the world. One way to meet these challenges is to harvest and store rainwater using rainwater catchment systems. By collecting rainwater using rainwater catchment systems, water does not flow on the ground. Therefore, using the rainwater catchment system helps to prevent rainwater from mi...
