Climate vagaries and the lack of irrigation, frequently combined with coarse-textured sandy and unevenly distributed saline soils, explain low crop yields and the endemic relative poverty of the rural population in Northeast Thailand (NET). Local and regional trends in agriculturally-relevant rai...

Trends in rainfall series were investigated at 16 stations in Ghana over the period 1960-2005. Time series were first de-correlated using an effective pre-whitening methodology and then submitted to the resampling-based Mann-Kendall test. Field significances were assessed using the regional avera...

The subject of change detection in climate time series has recently received greater interest as the perception of a human-induced change in the climate is now widely accepted. However, changes in regional precipitation and temperature remain uncertain. This study characterizes projected fine-sca...

Hydropower production is altering the Mekong River basin’s riverine ecosystems, which contain the world’s largest inland fishery and provide food security and livelihoods to millions of people. The basin’s hydropower reservoir storage, which may rise from ~2% of its mean annual flow in 2008 to ~2...

This study assessed the feasibility of using roof-top rainwater harvesting system (RWHS) to irrigate home-based vegetable gardens in Laos. Surveys were conducted in three villages located in the provinces of Vientiane and Savannakhet to gather quantitative data on irrigation and farming practices...
