A socio-hydrological approach for incorporating gender into biophysical models and implications for water resources research
(Applied Geography, 2015)
Men and women interact with water resources and landscapes in different ways, and there are frequent criticisms that little research is undertaken across disciplines to address this issue. Biophysical scientists in particular ...
Profitability and Economic Feasibility Analysis of Small Scale Irrigation Technologies in northern Ghana
(2018)
Small-scale irrigation (SSI) technologies can be a useful tool not only to increase crop productivity and income but also to mitigate against climate variability in Ghana given the recent frequent dry spells. Profitability ...

Suitability mapping framework for solar photovoltaic pumps for smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa
(Applied Geography, 2018)
As solar panels become more affordable, solar photovoltaic (PV) pumps have been identified as a high potential water-lifting technology to meet the growing irrigation demand in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). However, little is ...
Evaluation of new farming technologies in Ethiopia using the Integrated Decision Support System (IDSS)
(Agricultural Water Management, 2017)
This study investigates multi-dimensional impacts of adopting new technology in agriculture at the farm/village and watershed scale in sub-Saharan Africa using the Integrated Decision Support System (IDSS). Application of ...
Performance of bias corrected MPEG rainfall estimate for rainfall-runoff simulation in the upper Blue Nile Basin, Ethiopia
(Journal of Hydrology,, 2018)
In many developing countries and remote areas of important ecosystems, good quality precipitation data are neither available nor readily accessible. Satellite observations and processing algorithms are being extensively ...
Modeling the Impacts of Conservation Agriculture with a Drip Irrigation System on the Hydrology and Water Management in Sub-Saharan Africa
(MDPI, 2018)
The agricultural system in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is dominated by traditional farming practices with poor soil and water management, which contributes to soil degradation and low crop productivity. This study integrated ...
