Estimation of water yield and water balance in a river catchment is critical to the sustainable management of water resources at watershed level in any country. Therefore, in the present study, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) interfaced with Geographical Information System (GIS) was applied as a tool to predict water balance and water yield of a catchment area in Nigeria. The catchment ar...

Abstract Water security assessments often rely on outputs from hydrological models that are applicable only in gauged regions where there river discharge data to constrain the models. Therefore, is an urgent need explore new methods for assessing water ungauged regions. This study proposes use of balance and footprint concepts satellite observations assess Anglophone Cameroon, which example a t...

Hypernatremia is common in intensive care units. It has detrimental effects on various physiologic functions and was shown to be an independent risk factor for increased mortality in critically ill patients. Mechanisms of hypernatremia include sodium gain and/or loss of free water and can be discriminated by clinical assessment and urine electrolyte analysis. Because many critically ill patient...

The scarcity and uneven distribution of precipitation stations in the inland river basins of the Northeastern Tibetan Plateau restrict the application of the distributed hydrological model and spatial analysis of water balance component characteristics. This study used the upper Heihe River Basin as a case study, and daily gridded precipitation data with 3 km resolution based on the spatial int...

monthly discharge is one of the most important factors considered in designs and hydrological works. some watersheds are not equipped with needed hydrometric equipment. in such a case average monthly discharge could be estimated from regional monthly water balance models of representative watersheds. in this study, thornthwaite & mather (tm) model were used in the pishkouh watershed in arid...

SUMMARY. Daisy is a Soil-Plant-Atmosphere system model designed to simulate water balance, heat balance, solute balance and crop production in agro-ecosystems subjected to various management strategies. The water balance model comprises a surface water balance and a soil water balance. The surface water includes a model for snow accumulation and melting, a model for interception, through-fall, ...
