Annor, F.O.Boateng-Gyimah, M.Mul, Marloes L.Padi, P.Adwubi, A.Darkwa, K.Addo, C.[Trade-offs between hydropower production and downstream flow requirements]Trade-offs between hydropower production and downstream flow requirements
Ofosu, E. A.Mul, Marloes L.Boateng-Gyimah, M.Annor, F.Ampomah, B. Y.[Overview of the re-operation and re-optimisation of the Akosombo and Kpong Dams Project]Overview of the re-operation and re-optimisation of the Akosombo and Kpong Dams Project

[1] Evapotranspiration (ET) accounts for a substantial amount of the water use in river basins particular in the tropics and arid regions. However, accurate estimation still remains a challenge especially in large spatially heterogeneous and data scarce areas including the Upper Pangani River Bas...


Kiptala, J.K.Mohamed, Y.Mul, Marloes L.Zaag, P. van der[Mapping evapotranspiration trends using MODIS and SEBAL model in a data scarce and heterogeneous landscape in eastern Africa]Mapping evapotranspiration trends using MODIS and SEBAL model in a data scarce and heterogeneous landscape in eastern Africa

To meet growing population demands for food and other agricultural commodities, agricultural land-use intensification and extensification seems to be increasing in the Abbay (Upper Blue Nile) basin in Ethiopia. However, the amount, location and degree of suitability of the basin for agriculture s...


Yalew, S.G.Griensven, Ann vanMul, Marloes L.Zaag, P. van der[Land suitability analysis for agriculture in the Abbay basin using remote sensing, GIS and AHP techniques]Land suitability analysis for agriculture in the Abbay basin using remote sensing, GIS and AHP techniques

Land-use and land-cover changes are driving unprecedented changes in ecosystems and environmental processes at different scales. This study was aimed at identifying the potential land-use drivers in the Jedeb catchment of the Abbay basin by combining statistical analysis, field investigation and ...


Yalew, S.G.Mul, Marloes L.Griensven, Ann vanTeferi, E.Priess, J.Schweitzer, C.Zaag, P. van der[Land-use change modelling in the Upper Blue Nile Basin]Land-use change modelling in the Upper Blue Nile Basin

Integrated water resources management is a combination of managing blue and green water resources. Often the main focus is on the blue water resources, as information on spatially distributed evaporative water use is not as readily available as the link to river flows. Physically based, spatially...


Kiptala, J.K.Mul, Marloes L.Mohamed, Y.Zaag, P. van der[Modelling stream flow and quantifying blue water using a modified STREAM model for a heterogeneous, highly utilized and data-scarce river basin in Africa]Modelling stream flow and quantifying blue water using a modified STREAM model for a heterogeneous, highly utilized and data-scarce river basin in Africa

Increasing climate variability and challenge in access to water pose major impediments to rainfed agricultural productivity. Extensive flooding of agricultural lands during the rainy season and lack of water during the 8-month long dry season affect the livelihood of the people in the northern Gh...


Owusu, SethMul, Marloes L.Ghansah, BenjaminOsei-Owusu, P.K.Awotwe-Pratt, V.Kadyampakeni, D.[Assessing land suitability for aquifer storage and recharge in northern Ghana using remote sensing and GIS multi-criteria decision analysis technique]Assessing land suitability for aquifer storage and recharge in northern Ghana using remote sensing and GIS multi-criteria decision analysis technique

Ecosystem services assessment requires an integrated approach, as it is influenced by elements such as climate, hydrology and socio-economics, which in turn influence each other. However, there are few studies that integrate these elements in order to assess ecosystem services. Absence of integra...


Yalew, S.Pilz, T.Schweitzer, C.Liersch, S.Kwast, J. van derMul, Marloes L.Griensven, Ann vanZaag, P. van der[Dynamic feedback between land-use and hydrology for ecosystem services assessment]Dynamic feedback between land-use and hydrology for ecosystem services assessment

Sustainability of rainwater harvesting in enhancing water productivity in various biophysical and socioeconomic conditions of SSA is a key in large scale livelihood improvement. A study was undertaken in Makanya catchment of rural Tanzania to assess sustainability of storage type of rainwater har...


Pachpute, J.S.Tumbo, S.D.Sally, HilmyMul, Marloes L.[Sustainability of rainwater harvesting systems in rural catchment of Sub-Saharan Africa]Sustainability of rainwater harvesting systems in rural catchment of Sub-Saharan Africa

In arid and semi-arid areas, evaporation fluxes are the largest component of the hydrological cycle, with runoff coefficient rarely exceeding 10%. These fluxes are a function of land use and land management and as such an essential component for integrated water resources management. Spatially di...


Kiptala, J.K.Mohamed, Y.Mul, Marloes L.Cheema, Muhammad Jehanzeb MasudZaag, P. van der[Land use and land cover classification using phenological variability from MODIS vegetation in the Upper Pangani River Basin, eastern Africa]Land use and land cover classification using phenological variability from MODIS vegetation in the Upper Pangani River Basin, eastern Africa
