The port of Tangier Med is essential due to its strategic location, as it an important trading center linking Europe, North America, and Africa. However, the increased rates downstream sediment transportation put pressure on sustainable future port. Thus, assessing existing erosion improvement scenarios imperative for planning management at catchment level. We utilize Erosion Potential Model (EPM) combined with Intensity Outflow (IntErO) algorithm assess outflow intensity distinguish...

An efficient design for erosion-control structures of any watershed in the world is entrusted with delicate forecasting sediment yields. These outlook yields are usually inferred by extrapolations from past observations. Because runoff, as transporting vehicle, more closely correlated than other variable. So, calibration well validation process-based hydrological models two major processes while estimating yield watershed. The actual survey fulfilled aim developing a trustworthy hydrologic...

Soil erosion from agricultural fields is a worldwide problem, to influence water quality, soil fertility and reservoir sedimentation especially in Mediterranean countries such as Morocco. In fact, this work assesses the effects of Best Management Practices (BMPs) on sediments using Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model Kalaya watershed Northern Morocco, recommend most appropriate practice. This study based use three usable practices: contouring, strip-cropping terracing, by calibrated SWAT...

For many years, the application of mixed-effects modeling has received much attention for predicting scenarios in fields theoretical and applied sciences. In this study, a "new" Multilevel Linear Mixed-Effects (LME) model is proposed to analyze predict multiply-nested hierarchical data. Temperature rainfall observation were carried out successively between 1979-2014 1984-2018; data input was organized on monthly basis each year. Besides, daily made "Dar Chaoui" zone Northern Morocco....

Sedimentary and aquatic dynamics are currently causing major environmental problems in the Mediterranean countries, water soil resources steadily decreasing over time. Therefore, simulation estimation of flows sediments have a direct implication sustainable management soils. In present study, watershed (North-West Morocco) was benefited from functionalities Hydrological Model SWAT, version 2012 (semi-distributed physically based), by adopting monthly simulation. The main objective this study...

Abstract In this study, we evaluated the suitability of semi-arid region Central Morocco for wheat production using Agricultural Production Systems sIMulator (APSIM) considering weather, soil properties and crop management factors. Model calibration was carried out data collected from field trials. A quantitative statistics, i.e., root mean square error (RMSE), Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), index agreement (d) were used in model performance evaluation. Furthermore, series simulations...

Terraced agroecosystems (TAS)—apart from being an important cultural heritage element—are considered vital for sustainable water resource management and climate change adaptation measures. However, this traditional form of agriculture, with direct implications in food security at a local scale, has been suffering abandonment or degradation worldwide. In light this, the need to fully comprehend complex linkage their different driving forces is essential. The identification these dynamics...
