Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Temporal Analysis of Temperature Trend and its Possible Effects on Water Resources and Water Uses in Climatic Zones of Iran's Zayandehrud River BasinAli Hasantabar-Amiri, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Ali Heidarian et al.The minimum, moderate and maximum temperature trends at seasonal time scale in 5 climatic zones using 37 meteorological stations in Zayandehrud river basin was studied regionally and the relationship to water resources, water uses of each zone and its possible effects were determined. The results showed that the majority of the climatic zones will have an increasing trend in spring, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 Jun 2019 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalyzing the Groundwater Quality Parameters Using Frequency AnalysisMaryam Ghashghaie, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Saeid Eslamian, Vijay P. SinghWater quality problems are world spread as a result of land use changes and industrial development. Water deficit problems become more severe in result of water quality ignorance. Determining the probability values of water quality parameters for specific return periods could be very helpful in water resources management and conservation in terms of quality. In this research some water quality … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 14 Apr 2018 · 9,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Rainfall Characteristics for Monitoring of the Extreme Rainfall Event in Makassar CityWahidah Sanusi, Usman Mulbar, Hendra Jaya et al.Flooding is a common problem that occurs in some regions of Indonesia, including Makassar city. In the planning of flood control, rainfall variables are very necessary as the frequency, intensity and duration of rainfall. The relationship of these variables can be expressed in a curve Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF). The objectives of this study are to identify the best fitting distribution of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 10 Apr 2017 · 7,797 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Effects of Climate Change and Variability on Water Resources: A Case Study of the Cheliff Basin in AlgeriaYamina Elmeddahi, Hacene Mahmoudi, Abderrahmane Issaadi et al.In aim to well understand of the association between climate change, variability and their impact on water resources availability, an analysis was conducted of the trends in rainfall and stream flows across the Cheliff basin in Algeria. Sen’s non-parametric estimator of slope was employed to estimate the extent of tendencies, whose statistical significance was measured by the Mann-Kendall (MK) and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 12 May 2016 · 9,515 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractSteady State Groundwater Flow Modeling of an Ex-Landfill Site in Kuala Lumpur, MalaysiaMustapha Atta, Wan Zuhairi Wan Yaacob, Othman Bin JaafarEffective and rational management of groundwater resources require adequate information on the groundwater flow interactions with surface water and chemical species in the flow regime. The hydrologic conditions beneath the unlined ex- landfill site in Jinjang Kuala Lumpur were investigated to understand the groundwater flow and geochemical setting in which contaminants transport in the groundwater may occur in the ex-landfill. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 30 Oct 2015 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Converting Tropical Peat Swamp Forest into Oil Palm Plantation on Water QualitySeca Gandaseca, Noraini Rosli, Mohd Hanafi Idris et al.Peat swamp forest is a unique forest and wetlands ecosystem that recognized as one of the most important reservoir of biodiversity and water resources protection. Rapid development particularly for development, agriculture and plantation in peat swamp forest (PSF) area had given negative impacts to its ecosystem included degradation of its water quality. This study was conducted to determine water quality … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 3 Sep 2015 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Soil and Water Assessment Tool Model to Estimate Sediment Yield in Kaw LakeD. Alemayehu, R. Srinivasan, P. DaggupatiKaw Lake is one of the reservoirs built by the Army Corps of Engineers in 1976 for the purpose of flood control, recreation, water supply, navigation and fish and wildlife conservation. The Arkansas River flows from Colorado and Kansas before reaching Oklahoma. As it passes through these states, the water carries various kinds of pollutants such as metals from mine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 16 Dec 2014 · 8,271 accessesView PDFCite
