Assessment of Climate Change and Its Impact on Water Resources: Case of Tafna Basin–North West of Algeria
(2018)
Water resources could become scarcer in future decades worldwide. This will significantly affect semi-arid to arid climatic regions. The rapid evolution population, industrial development, and the expansion of agriculture ...
Impact of Climate Change on Groundwater Resources of the Atankwidi Basin in Ghana, West Africa
(2018)
The Atankwidi basin is a sub-basin of the Volta River basin, which is located in West Africa. It is a transboundary basin shared by Ghana and Burkina Faso and has a drainage area of about 286 km2. The basin dwellers depend ...
Evaluating Water Security in a Challenging Environment: Case Study of Oti Nord Sub Basin in Togo
(2018)
Water shortage across the globe has increased due to climate change among other factors with highly projected impacts expected at river basin level. Anticipating these impacts will help act on time to avoid future water ...
Assessment Of Climate Change Impact On Hydrology Of Lower Awash Sub Basin, Ethiopia
(2017)
This thesis research focusing on assessing the impact of climate change on hydrology over Lower Awash Sub Basin using downscaled climate projection from GCM product outputs of HadCM3. The Statistical Down Scaling Model ...
Study of the Feasibility of Water Reuse for Agriculture as an Adaptation Measure to Climate Change: A Case Study of Ain Temouchent, Algeria
(2018)
The scarcity of conventional water resources represents for Algeria, because of its Mediterranean climate arid to semi-arid, a major concern. The global water potential of Algeria does not exceed 13.2 billion m3 of water, ...
Role of Water User Associations on the Restoration of the Ecosystem in Tanzania
(MDPI, 2019-01-15)
The Mkoji sub-catchment is the most populated sub-catchment in the uppermost part of the Rufiji basin in Tanzania, with critical users downstream, and it is vulnerable to water shortages. Despite the efforts made by ...
Scanning Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources of the Largest African River Basins
(2018)
The objectives were to ensemble and analyze the projected signals of climate change recently published in peer reviewed outlets with respect to five African river basins, viz. Nile, Senegal & Volta, Niger, Congo, and Zambezi ...
Barriers to and Determinants of the Choice of Crop Management Strategies to Combat Climate Change in Dejen District, Nile Basin of Ethiopia
(2018)
Climate change without adaptation is projected to impact strongly the livelihoods of the rural communities. Adaptation to climate change is crucial for developing country like Ethiopia due to high population and dependency ...
