Impact Assessment of Gilgel Gibe Hydroelectric Dam on Schitosomiasis: A Cross Sectional Study in Southwest Ethiopia
BACKGROUND Intestinal schistosomiasis is prevalent in East Africa including Ethiopia. Constructed five years back, Gilgel Gibe dam is suspected to harbor the intermediate host for transmission of schistosomiasis. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of intestinal schistosomiasis and risk factors among school children. METHODS A comparative cross-sectional study was carr...
متن کاملMICRO-HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT PHASE III Design Team
Phase III development of a micro-hydroelectric power generating system is focused on enhancing the system designed by Phases I and II. The previous phases focused on the use of the Gorlov Helical Turbine (GHT) to derive power from a fresh water environment, specifically the Stevens River in Vermont. Phase III exclusively focused on deriving power from an ocean environment and the construction o...
