Ahmed N. Bdour et al. View all

Issue 4

Climate change

This study emphasis on draining and slowing runoff volumes in arid and semi-arid lands regions using HEC-HMS model linked with various Best Management Practices (BMPs) alternatives. The proposed methods may help significantly in reducing flash flood precipitation and improving instream water quality...

Hydrology and Water Resources Management

Aim of the study is to examine the potential utilization of satellite precipitation data to estimate the peak discharges of flash floods in ungauged Mediterranean watersheds. Cumulative precipitation heights from local rain gauge and the GPM-IMERG were correlated in a scatter plot. The calculated...

Regression analysis between sediment transport rates and stream discharge for the Nestos River, Greece

by

Angelis I., Metallinos A. and Hrissanthou V.

Issue 3

General

Systematic measurements of sediment transport rates and water discharge were conducted in the Nestos River (Greece), at a place located between the outlet of Nestos River basin and the river delta. This basin area is about 838 km2 and lies downstream of the Platanovrysi Dam. Separate measurements of...

El-Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO): Recent Evolution and Possibilities for Long Range Flow Forecasting in the Brahmaputra-Jamuna River

by

Jahan N., Zobeyer A.T.M.H. and Bhuiyan M.A.

Issue 3

General

The El Nino-Southern Oscillation is the dominant pattern of short-term climate variation, and is therefore of great importance in climate studies. Some recent studies showed the teleconnection between stream flow and the El-Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) of the equatorial Pacific Ocean. This paper...

Integrated Surface Water-Groundwater Modelling

by

K. Spanoudaki, A. Nanou, A. I. Stamou, G. Christodoulou, T.Sparks, B. Bockelmann and R. A. Falconer

Issue 3

General

Two Integrated Surface water - Groundwater flow Models (ISGMs) have been developed at the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), Greece and Cardiff University (CU), UK to investigate surface water-groundwater interactions. The models are based on physical processes and are capable of...
