Reservoir sedimentation in dryland catchments : modelling and management
Semi-arid environments are mainly characterized by scarce water resources and are usually subject to risks of water stress. In these regions, water supply for drinking and irrigation purposes depends strongly on storage in surface reservoirs and sediment deposition in these reservoirs affects …

Measurement and modelling of water and sediment fluxes in meso-scale dryland catchments
… serious threat for many societies worldwide. In drylands, water management measures like the construction of reservoirs are affected by eroded sediments transported in the rivers. Thus, the capability of assessing water and sediment fluxes at the river basin scale is of vital importance to …

Sediment Dynamics in a Dryland River: Grain-Size Variations, Erosion Rates, Sediment Mixing and Dam Effects
Dryland rivers are fundamentally different from humid rivers because large infrequent floods often set channel form and sediment grain size patterns for long periods of time. The large natural variability in dryland river stream flow causes susceptibility to geomorphic alteration when they are …
