[1] Numerous hot springs flow within the steeply incised gorges of the central Nepal Himalayan front. The spring fluids have total dissolved solids (TDS) up to 7000 mg/L and Na, and K typically comprise >50% of the cationic charge, indicating that high-temperature silicate alteration is the dominant source of hot spring alkalinity. HCO3 is normally the dominant anion. Sr isotope ratios from the...

Characterization of stream flow is essential to water resource management, water supply planning, environmental protection, and ecological restoration; while air temperature variation due to climate change can exacerbate stream flow and add instability to the flow. In this study, the wavelet analysis technique was employed to identify temporal trend of air temperature and its impact upon forest...

flow-rate measurement in rivers under different conditions is required for river management purposes including water resources planning, pollution prevention, and flood control. this study proposed a new discharge estimation method by using a mean velocity derived from a 2d velocity distribution formula based on tsallis entropy concept. this procedure is done based on several factors which refl...

Karun River is the largest and most watery river in Iran. This river is the longest river which located just inside Iran and Ahvaz Metropolis drinking water supplied from Karun River as well (fa.alalam.ir). Karun River as the main source of water treatment plants in Ahvaz, like most surface waters affected by various contaminants which caused changes in water quality of the river (www.aww.co.ir...

This study modeled the effects of hydraulic dredging on the lower Karun river in Ahvaz range to thevillage is Farsyan . using software 4.1 HEC-RAS, one-dimensional model of the flow field wassimulated . After entering the information into the model and its calibration based on the selected,design flow model was implemented to extract the water surface elevation levels and spreading areaswere me...

The paper presents the state-of-the-art in flood forecasting and simulation applied to a river flood analysis and risk prediction. Different water flow forecasting and river simulation models are analysed. An advanced river flood forecasting and modelling approach developed within the ongoing project INFROM is described. It provides an integrated procedure for river flow forecasting and simulat...

Measures should be taken to make better use of the rivers in the study, construction and exploitation optimized to contain, mitigate risks and minimize the negative consequences and the improvement of the situation in order to meet human needs and protect the environment there. Route investigated in Khorasan Razavi province and city and river Ghochan is Atrak. Physiographic parameters using dig...

Quality of river varies widely depending on the land use in the catchment and environmental factors. Many rivers in developing countries are unhealthy because they contain harmful physical, chemical and biological agents. Zanjanrud River, located in Zanjan Province, Iran, where recently faced human intervention needs a regular monitoring from upstream to downstream for sustainable management. H...
