in highland watersheds, runoff generated by snow melting plays an important role in stream water supply. srm (snowmelt runoff model) is a hydrologic model which simulates and predicts daily flow in mountain watersheds dominated by snow melting process. the srm is based on the degree-day procedure which, is a widely used method but does not consider physical factors. in the current research, the...

Nitrate is globally the most widespread and widely studied groundwater contaminant. However, few studies have been conducted in sub-Saharan Africa, where leaching potential enhanced during rainy monsoon phase. The monitoring found concentrations over drinking water standards of 10 mg N-NO3− L−1 groundwater, primary supply rural communities. Studies on nitrate movement are limited to volcanic Et...

Scarce farm land and water resources in the highland watersheds of northern Thailand coupled with multiple users have led to conflicts among stakeholders who play important roles in the system dynamics. Integrating companion modeling and multi-agent systems (MAS) can facilitate adaptive learning processes to result in a decentralized collective management strategy that meets the balanced needs ...

Excessive soil loss and sediment yield in the highlands of Ethiopia are primary factors that accelerate decline land productivity, water resources, operation function existing infrastructure, as well management practices. This study was conducted at Finchaa catchment Upper Blue Nile basin to estimate rate erosion prioritize most sensitive sub-watersheds using Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) m...
