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 ...
Explaining farmers’ reluctance to adopt recommendations for sustainable ecosystem management
Introduction: The lower Syr Darya River Basin is an integral part of the Aral Sea Basin that is shared by four riparian countries. In Kazakhstan, the water is mainly used for agricultural purposes. However, the poor quality ...
On - Farm Irrigation
The present study aims at improving water management in on-farm using CropWat model.
Technology tracking: Understanding decisions to adopt, not to adopt, and dis-adopt household greywater filtration systems
Jordan is one of the world’s water-poorest countries. The demand for potable and productive water is ever increasing due to population growth, climate change, increasing numbers of refugees hosted by the country, as well ...
Nitrogen Management in Calcareous Soils: Problems and Solutions
Nitrogen (N) is the most widely applied plant nutrient and is a key constituent of animal manures. Improvement in crop
yields and high economic returns have been made possible through supplementation of crops with organic ...
Prediction of urban residential end-use water demands by integrating known and unknown water demand drivers at multiple scales I: Model development
Detailed prediction of water demand by their end-uses at multiple scales is essential to support planning of Integrated Urban Water Management, an increasingly applied approach to deal with the problem of water scarcity. ...
Prediction of urban residential end-use water demands by integrating known and unknown water demand drivers at multiple scales II: Model application and validation
Detailed prediction of end-use water demand at multiple spatial and temporal scales is essential for planning urban water supply using multiple water sources based on fit-for-purpose criteria. This paper presents the ...
A SWAT modeling approach to assess the impact of climate change on consumptive water use in Lower Chenab Canal area of Indus basin
Accurate assessment of spatio-temporal variations of consumptive water use (CWU) in large
irrigation schemes is crucial for several hydrological applications. This study is designed to evaluate
the impact of climate change ...
An Integrated Framework for Assessment of Hybrid Water Supply Systems
Urban water managers around the world are adopting decentralized water supply
systems, often in combination with centralized systems. While increasing demand for water
arising from population growth is one of the primary ...
A new concept of irrigation response units for effective management of surface and groundwater resources: a case study from the multi‑country Fergana Valley, Central Asia
When estimating canal water supplies for largescale irrigation schemes and especially in arid regions
worldwide, the impact of all factors affecting the gross
irrigation requirements (GIR) are not properly accounted
for, ...
