Soil erosion and sediment mapping in Aidoghmoush watershed appling MPSIAC model and GIS and RS technologies

Soil erosion is one of the important and worldwide environmental and economic issues. High amount of sediments accumulations behind the different structures such as dams requires several attempts to minimize their potential risks. Therefore, some quantified data will be needed in order to recognize those critical areas which requires urgent conservation. Since conventional procedures are time c...

Efficiency Assessment of Rangeland Hydrology and Erosion Model (RHEM) for water erosion quantification (Case Study: Sangane Watershed-Iran)

Hydrologic Modeling of the Bouregreg Watershed (Morocco) Using GIS and SWAT Model

The study of water resources at watershed scale is widely adopted as approach to manage, assess and simulate these important natural resources. The development of remote sensing and GIS techniques has allowed the use of spatially and physically based hydrologic models to simulate as simply and realistically as possible the functioning of watershed systems. Indeed, the major constraint that has ...

Study of Drought in Northern Karun Watershed

Drought is a natural hazard that has significant impact on economic, agricultural, environmental, and social aspects. In the present study details analysis of rainfall data has been carried out for the years 1981-2011. Standard precipitation index (SPI) has been used to evaluate the precipitation deficit in the Karun watershed of Iran. The results indicated that 1981-82,82-83,83-84,84-85,88-89,...
