the runoff simulation in a watershed provides insight on the processes affecting runoff generation and the stream flow characteristics like spatial and temporal variability of stream flow. this insight helps managers and planners in informed decision-makings on water resources management and planning. the objective of this study is to compare the performances of the complex swat model and the s...

Age-dependent modification of the facial subcutaneous white adipose tissue (sWAT) connected with reduction of its volume, modification of collagen content and adhesion between dermal and adipose layers can significantly influence mechanical stability of the skin and cause the development of aging symptoms such as wrinkles. Typical aging appearance in facial skin is at least partly connected wit...

d Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Swat, Swat, Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa, Pakistan ABSTRACT The concept of interval-valued fuzzy set is one of the most important and useful generalisation of Zadeh's fuzzy sets which is successfully applied by engineers and scientists in the field of Robotics, Control Theory and Computer Engineering. In this paper, we introduce new and useful ge...

Mobile operating systems have evolved to provide increasing accessibility capabilities. However, mobile application developers are still restricted to deploy custom-made accessible applications or to extend limited and stereotyped accessibility services. In this paper, we present SWAT, an extensible framework that provides system-level content and event information to application developers. It...

Rapid land use change due to intensive agricultural practices in the Ethiopian Highlands, results in increasing rates of soil erosion. This manifested in significant impacts downstream by reducing the storage capacity of reservoirs (e.g., Roseires, Sennar), and high desilting costs of irrigation canals. Therefore, this paper aims to provide a better understanding of the process at basin scale. ...

the adequacy of the swat model in the estimation of runoff, sediment yield and nitrate loss in the gorganrood watershed was tested, using the existing spatial database as the primary data. the model was then executed for a 31-years’ time period. in combination with the swat model, the sequential uncertainty fitting program (swat-cup and sufi-2) was added used to calibrate and validate a hydrolo...
