The purpose of this descriptive-correlation study was to investigate effective factors on rural people’s non-participation of Mahabad’s dam catchment in Watershed Management Projects. The research instrument was structural questionnaire with close-ended questions, which its validity confirmed by panel of academic staff and reliability of questionnaire was confirmed. The target population of thi...

The importance of the mean annual runoff (MAR)-hydrological variable is paramount for catchment planning, development and management. MAR depicts the amount of uncertainty or chaos (implicitly information content) of the catchment. The uncertainty associated with MAR of quaternary catchments (QCs) in the Upper Vaal catchment of South Africa has been quantified through Shannon entropy. As a resu...

[1] Primary productivity and vegetation cover are strongly related to how precipitation is partitioned into surface discharge, storage, and evapotranspiration (ET). Thus, quantifying feedbacks between changes in precipitation and vegetation at regional scales is a critical step toward predicting both carbon balance and water resources as climate and land cover change. We used a catchment-based ...

soil erosion is a major problem for developing countries with arid and semi-arid climate. these of erosion is possible than two ways of water and wind. in this paper, with using of two methods irifer and hierarchical models, the rate and intensity of of soil erosion is estimated shadegan catchment. for this purpose, by using various maps alike dem, rainfall, land use index, ndvi, geology estima...

Partitioning of rainfall into evapotranspiration and runoff is controlled by climate and catchment characteristics. The degree of control exerted by these factors varies with the spatial and temporal scales of processes being modelled. Understanding individual hydrological processes and their relationships with climatic and catchment characteristics is an important step in predicting catchment ...

A 13,451 ha forested catchment in SE Australia was instrumented for one year to quantify total instream exports of total suspended sediment (TSS) and total phosphorus (TP). 101 road-stream crossings were mapped and characterised in detail within the catchment to identify the properties of these road sections that connect directly to the stream network. Sediment and nutrient generation rates fro...

The catchment feature model addresses two questions in the field of multimodal interaction: how we bridge video and audio processing with the realities of human multimodal communication, and how information from the different modes may be fused. We argue from a detailed literature review that gestural research has clustered around manipulative and semaphoric use of the hands, motivate the catch...
