Reservoir sedimentation in dryland catchments : modelling and management
… purposes depends strongly on storage in surface reservoirs and sediment deposition in these reservoirs affects adversely the water storage. In order to reproduce the complex behaviour of sediment deposition in reservoirs located in semi-arid environments and the effects of using sediment …

Computer-Based Instruction for Engineering Education in the Developing World
… Cultural Organization (UNESCO) on the topic of reservoir sedimentation. This pilot learning module is described in terms of widely-accepted instructional design principles. Preliminary assessment of the pilot module demonstrated that instructional simulations can effectively teach engineering …

Granger Lake Sedimentation and Watershed Conservation Implementation Assessment
Sedimentation rates for many Texas reservoirs may be skewed by overstated estimates of design capacity and assumptions perpetuated through subsequent volumetric surveys. Multi-frequency reservoir surveys offer the means by which we may improve existing reservoir data and validate historic …

Effects of sedimentation on reservoirs in the Mushibemba catchment, Mkushi Farm Block, Central Zambia
Sedimentation is one of the problems that affects the storage capacity of most small reservoirs, and if not addressed on time, may lead to the dams being filled up with sediment and failing to meet the intended objective of providing agricultural water for food and economic security. The aim of …

Learning for sustainable management of sedimentation in the Makoye reservoir in Monze east of Southern province,Zambia
Environmental issues such as sedimentation have accelerated due to increase in population and changes in land uses. This has made water managers to face complex technical challenges in managing water bodies. To address such environmental issues, the Global Action Program (GAP) by UNESCO (2014) …

Determination of sediment, water quantity and quality for swat modelling of sedimentation in the Makoye reservoir, southern province, Zambia.
Reservoir sedimentation is one of the temporally and spatially distributed challenges facing managers of small reservoirs today. Fluvial system formed the geomorphological plinth of the study. The study was motivated by the problem of sedimentation in the Makoye Reservoir (about 60500 m2), which …

Geospatial analysis of specific degradation in South Korea
… geospatial features affecting erosion and sedimentation. Long-term reservoir sedimentation measurements were available to determine the Sediment Delivery Ratio (SDR). An important finding from this analysis is that the percentage of the area covered with wetland and water is well-correlated …

Geoprocessing Approaches to Delineate Impoundments and Characterize Subcatchments within Kansas Reservoir Drainages
Federal reservoirs in Kansas are presently undergoing infill at varying rates and represent a growing concern, as these features are integral to the state’s infrastructure and projected dredging required to restore capacities are substantial. Kansas exhibits a unique hydrography by having some of …

Experimental study of reservoir turbidity currents venting
Reservoirs are one of the most important components of our hydraulic systems around the world, and the effectiveness of their performance is threatened by sediment deposition within the impoundment. To achieve long-term sustainable performance of reservoirs, and to reach effective sediment …
