In arid and semi-arid countries such as Iran, which are always faced water supply problems in various sectors due to climate stress, the importance of surface runoff management in watersheds is becoming increasingly apparent. One of the components of water resources management in each region is the initiatives of people living in and around watersheds based on their indigenous and empirical kno...

The main aim of flood water spreading in Iran is to recharge groundwater. Understanding the effect and efficiency of such projects is one of the most important activities in managing and implementing water spreading. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of water spreading on groundwater resources in Kohdasht plain. Data and information required including precipitation rate, ...

In arid and semi-arid regions of the world including Iran, floodwaters are the main resource to supply irrigation water. Floodwater spreading also plays an effective role in replenishing groundwater, stabilization of alluvial soil, and vegetation restoration. Qazvin traditional garden is an example of such floodwater spreading mechanism, dating back to over a thousand years ago, according to hi...

Determine appropriate locations with accuracy and speed required is for Floodwater spreading very important. The main objective of this research, preparation, use and evaluation decision support systems is based on GIS and RS techniques to identify and prioritization appropriate areas Floodwater spreading in the study area. In this study area suitable for flood water spreading were selected bas...

Integrated methods to store precipitation when it is not sufficient to cause floods will provide suitable conditions for improving the vegetation of floodplains. In this study, the application of rainwater harvesting systems in combination with the performance of flood distribution networks and its impact on increasing the moisture storage in soil profile were investigated. Therefore, while usi...
