Ecosystem Services: What they are, why they are important and how do we value and manage them
Our health and wellbeing depends upon the services provided by ecosystems and their components: water, soil, nutrients and organisms. Ecosystem services are the processes by which the environment produces resources utilized ...
Water saving in arid regions: a comparison of surface and subsurface drip irrigation systems for irrigation of date palms
Surface and subsurface drip irrigation methods can play a significant role in overcoming the scarcity of water mostly in water shortage areas. A field study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of surface ...
A geo-informatics approach for estimating water resources management components and their interrelationships
A remote sensing based geo-informatics approach was developed to estimate water resources management (WRM) components across a large irrigation scheme in the Indus Basin of Pakistan. The approach provides a generalized ...
SWAT: Agricultural water and nonpoint source pollution management at a watershed scale
Global change and demographic changes increasingly cause water, food, and health problems at many places of the world. In addition, the growth in bioenergy production leads to land-use change and associated environmental ...

Assessing the impact of soil and water conservation structures in the Ethiopian highlands. A case study from the Lake Tana Basin.
Without well planned adaptation efforts climate change is predicted to affect the agricultural
sector in Eastern Africa and to ultimately reduce agricultural yields and hamper efforts to achieve
food security and reduce ...
Managing Scarce Water Resources in Irrigated Drylands of Central Asia
Central Asian farmers use the Soviet era-developed method of irrigation which divides the irrigated areas in Hydro Module Zones (HMZ). Each HMZ has a set of crop-specific recommendations for irrigation based on a) soil ...
Egypt looks to avert water crisis driven by demand
Egypt has relied on the Nile, Africa's largest river, since the time of the pharaohs. For thousands of years, annual floods dumped rich silt on the banks, allowing the country to serve as a Mediterranean grain reserve. But ...
