Hydrological models provide water managers with the available amount of water in the watershed. In this paper, we firstly developed a system dynamics model to calculate the available amount of water in the watershed. Then, we defined two scenarios one of which is the development scenario describing how land use changes can affect water availability in the watershed. Next, we divided the watersh...

Index words: Watershed studies Best Management Practices Restoration Remediation Aquatic systems Studies that evaluate the linkages between watershed improvement through Best Management Practices (BMPs) and downstream outcomes are few. Water quality of coastal waters is often impacted by soil and nutrient loss fromwatersheds in agriculture. Mitigation of these impacts is of concern in the Great...

Flood prediction is very important in land and water resources management. Many flood disasters could be mitigated with adequate preparedness especially urban watershed. This study assessed the runoff potential of Opa watershed Southwest Nigeria using remote sensing Soil Conservation Service or SCS curve number (CN) techniques. The 2007 NigSat image year was classified into different cover clas...

Many researchers have examined the impact of detailed soil spatial information on hydrological modelling due to the fact that such information serves as important input to hydrological modelling, yet is difficult and expensive to obtain. Most research has focused on the effects at single scales; however, the effects in the context of spatial aggregation across different scales are largely missi...
