This study assessed flood inundation of the Ciliwung River Basin, Greater Jakarta to improve urban water environment under climate change and unplanned urbanisation. The 1‐day maximum precipitation data for 50‐ 100‐year return period current future conditions were used assess impact change. Precipitation output MRI‐CGCM3, MIROC5, HadGEM2‐ES General Circulation Models (GCMs) with RCP 4.5 8.5 emission scenario over periods 1985–2004 2020–2039 representing conditions, respectively, used....

The hydrological conditions upstream of the Ciliwung watershed are changing due to climate and land-use changes. Any changes in this area may increase flood frequencies which have countless consequences downstream where Jakarta city is located. We simulated effects on flooding (e.g., peak flow river discharge) upper River basin Greater Jakarta, Indonesia. Hydrologic Modeling System (HEC-HMS), a rainfall-runoff simulation model, was used simulate discharge values for current future...

The A-Luoi district in Thua Thien Hue province of Vietnam is under extreme pressure from natural and anthropogenic factors. area ungauged suffering data scarcity. To evaluate the water resources availability management, we used Soil Water Assessment Tools (SWAT). A multi-approach technique was to calibrate hydrological model. model calibrated three time scales: daily, monthly yearly by river discharge, actual evapotranspiration (ETa) crop yield, respectively. with Nash-Sutcliffe R2...

Predicting potential habitats of endemic species is a suitable method for biodiversity conservation and rehabilitation rangeland ecosystems. The present study was conducted to estimate the geographic distribution Artemisia sieberi (A. sieberi) aucheri aucheri), find most important environmental predictor variables seek similarities differences in habitat preferences between two Poshtkouh rangelands Central Iran. Maps were created by means information system (GIS) geostatistics. Then...

The semi-arid regions of Iran have experienced severe water resources stress due to natural (e.g., drought) and anthropogenic depletion in various sectors) factors. Assessing the impact climate change on crop production could significantly help toward better management hence prevention land degradation this area. A hydrological model Razan–Ghahavand basin was used as a representative case study region Iran. Future scenarios mid-21st century were generated from four global circulation models...

Abstract. Hydrological modeling of ungauged basins which have a high risk natural hazards (e.g., flooding, droughts) is always imperative for policymakers and stakeholders. The Aluoi district in Hue province representative case study Central Vietnam, as it under extreme pressure anthropogenic factors. Flooding, soil erosion sedimentation are the main this area, threaten socio-economic activities not only but also those area downstream. To evaluate water resources hazards, we used Soil Water...

Modeling insecurity under future climate change and socio-economic development is indispensable for adaptive planning sustainable management of water resources. This case study strives to assess the quality quantity status both present near in Ciliwung River basin inside Jakarta Province different scenarios using population growth with planned additional wastewater infrastructure by 2030 as mentioned local master plan, comparing above conditions addition effects change. Biochemical oxygen...

Recently, the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) land surface temperature (LST) is considered one of most suitable ways to retrieve air (Ta) – important and widely used climate variables for a wide range applications. In fact, many successful studies have been reported in regions world. Each day, four MODIS LST data are available; from two sensors (Terra Aqua) at local overpass times (daytime night-time). However, due their different times, daytime night-time daily maximum...

Desertification process as a great problem affects most of the countries in world specially developing countries. This has high rate arid and semi-arid such Iran. The main objective this research was to investigate land degradation status desertification mapping Kashan area. Different studies have been carried out order assess resulted production different regional models for their application another region indices should be re-investigated adjusted local conditions. So study, newest method...

Monitoring of soil moisture dynamics provides valuable information about grassland degradation, since directly affects vegetation cover. While the Mongolian monitoring network is limited to urban and protected natural areas, remote sensing data can be used determine status elsewhere. In this paper, we whether in situ remotely sensed unaccounted areas Southwestern Mongolia are consistent with each other, by comparing Soil Moisture Ocean Salinity (SMOS) first passive L-band satellite...
