(Journal of Hydrology; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2018)The Upper Blue Nile basin is considered as the lifeline for ∼250 million people and contributes ∼50 Gm3/year of water to the Nile River. Poor land management practices in the Ethiopian highlands have caused a significant ...
-
(Feed the Future; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2017)The rural population in developing countries depends on agriculture. However, in many of these countries, agricultural productivity remains low with episodes of famines in drought-prone areas. One of the options to increase ...

(Applied Geography; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2017)Although Ethiopia has abundant land for irrigation, only a fraction of its potential land is being utilized.This study evaluates suitability of lands for irrigation using groundwater in Ethiopia using GIS-basedMulti-Criteria ...
-
(Water; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2018)The study was conducted in Lake Tana Basin of Ethiopia to assess potentially irrigable areas for home gardens, water availability, and feasibility of water-lifting technologies. A GIS-based Multi-Criteria Evaluation (MCE) ...
-
(2013-07-16)Water is the most important resource on Earth. Climate and land cover changes are two important factors that directly influenced water resources. This research provides important information for water resources management ...
-
(Texas &M University. Libraries, 2017)Water access and management play central roles in determining nutritional outcomes. Water-for-nutrition is most often approached from a WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) perspective, where the aim is to improve water ...

Conservation Agriculture Saves Irrigation Water in the Dry Monsoon Phase in the Ethiopian Highlands (Water; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2019)Water resources in sub-Saharan Africa are more overstressed than in many other regions of the world. Experiments on commercial farms have shown that conservation agriculture (CA) can save water and improve the soil. ...
-
(Journal of Soil and Water Conservation; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)The traditional agriculture production system in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) caused significant soil erosion and degradation of soil quality. In addition, dependability of rainfall for irrigation needs limits the crop production. ...
-
(American Geophysical Union, 2014-01)The influence of two large-scale circulation patterns (the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO)), and the effect of the interdecadal modulation of ENSO on precipitation in the state ...
-
(Land; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2019)Intensification of rainfed agriculture in the Ethiopian highlands has resulted in soil degradation and hardpan formation, which has reduced rooting depth, decreased deep percolation, and increased direct runoff and sediment ...
-
(Computers and Electronics in Agriculture; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2019)Estimating the potential land resources suitable for irrigation and evaluating the possible impact of climate change on land suitability is essential for planning a sustainable agricultural system. This study applied a ...
-
(Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)Endosulfan, a mixture of α- and β-isomers, is used by farmers in the wet and dry season for khat and onion production. Khat leaf samples were collected in farmer fields at intervals of 1 h; 1, 5, 9 and 14 d after application. ...
-
(Hydrological Processes,; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2020)Feeding 9 billion people in 2050 will require sustainable development of all water resources, both surface and subsurface. Yet, little is known about the irrigation potential of hillside shallow aquifers in many highland ...
-
(Ecosystem Services; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2018)Estimating the impacts of land use/land cover (LULC) changes in Ecosystem Service Values (ESV) is indispensable to provide public awareness about the status of ESV, and to help in policy-making processes. This study was ...
