Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleApplication of Rainfall-runoff Models to Zard River Catchment'sM. B. Rahnama, G. A. BaraniRainfall-runoff models are nonlinear processes according to the sequential and spatial distribution of the rainfall. So, it is difficult to explain the response of catchments systems with the simple models. In the present work simulation of the rainfall-runoff processes have been carried out by the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and the HEC-HMS models. The ANN models of Multi Layer Perceptron … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,528 accessesView PDFCite

YisaProblem statement: The impact of anthropogenic activities on Otamiri and Oramiriukwa Rivers as a result of the increasing rate of urbanization in Owerri, Nigeria is of a great concern due to the fact that water from these rivers is the source of water distributed for public use. These rivers are of particular importance in the study of surface water pollution … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePotential Zones of Peruvanthanam and Valiyathodu Sub-Watersheds of Manimala River BasinVadakkepurakkal Rekha, Aikara Varkey George, Rita MendezGroundwater is a dynamic and replenishable natural resource. But in hard rock terrains, its availability is of limited extent. In sub-watershed studies, remote sensing and GIS techniques have the advantages of spatial, spectral and temporal data, covering large and inaccessible areas within a short span of time. Thus this technique has become a very handy tool in assessing and monitoring … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2013 · 7,389 accessesView PDFCite
