Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Watershed Structures in Controlling Runoff - Case Study of Sardasht Basin in IRANSeyedeh Zahra Hosseini-Teshnizi, Ghodratollah Davoudi, Seyedeh Laleh Razavi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariIn order to investigate the performance of constructed structures in Sardasht watershed, Soil and Water Assessment Tools model for simulation of runoff and sediment during the studied period of 1996-2012 was carried out for two cases of existence and absence of flood control structures. From 2007 onwards by performing watershed operations in these sub-basins, the average runoff rate decreased about … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 26 Feb 2020 · 7,346 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrated Assessment of Water Resource Sustainability in the Upper Amojú River Basin, Northern Peruvian AndesJuan Eduardo Suarez-Rivadeneira, Freddy A. Manayay, Mayra Pamela Musayón Diaz et al.This study presents a comprehensive, statistically robust assessment of water resource sustainability in the upper section of the Amojú River Basin, Province of Jaén northern Peruvian Andes, using the Sarandón multi-cirteria methodology. A stratified convenience sample of n = 887 households distributed across 22 localities was surveyed, achieving a margin of error of ±2.61% at the 95% confidence level (finite-population … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 26 Sep 2026 · 719 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NOVEL APPROACH TO DETECT FISSURES IN LUNG CT IMAGES USING MARKER-BASED WATERSHED TRANSFORMATIONK. Devaki, V. Murali BhaskaranDetection and segmentation of fissures is useful in the clinical interpretation of CT lung images to diagnose the presence of pathologies in the human lungs. A new automated method based on marker-based watershed transformation has been proposed to segment the fissures considering its unique structure as a long connected component. Marker based watershed transformation is applied and morphological operations are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 25 Jan 2014 · 6,425 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining Potential Sites for Runoff Water Harvesting using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems-Based Modeling in SinaiHossam H. Elewa, Atef A. Qaddah, Ayman A. El-FeelProblem statement: Sinai is increasingly suffering from an overwhelming water crisis. Runoff Water Harvesting (RWH) could be a solution for this problem. The determined promising drainage basins for RWH could be used by the decision makers to propose appropriate controlling systems to overcome the problem of water scarcity and for implementing runoff farming and rain-fed agriculture. Approach: Remote sensing, geographic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 15 Feb 2012 · 8,483 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Geo-Information Technology in the Study of Soil and Nutrients Loss by Water Erosion for three Different Land CoverMushtak T. Jabbar, C. A.I. Chong-Fa, Wang Tian-Wei, Shi Zhi-HuaThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the soil statistical analysis with RS and GIS techniques to quantify soil and nutrient loss risk. The Letianxi watershed, located in the southwest part of Hubei Province of China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,790 accessesView PDF Cite
