Opis:: The 2150 km2 transboundary Gurara Reservoir Catchment in Nigeria was modelled using the Water Evaluation and Planning tool to assess the hydro-climatic variability resulting from climate change and human-induced activities from 1989 to 2019 and projected to the future till 2050. Specifically, the model simulated the historic data set and predicted the future runoff. The initial results revealed that monthly calibration/validation of the model yielded acceptable results with Nash–Sutcliff efficiency (NSE), percent bias (PBIAS), and coefficient of determination (R2) values of 0.72/0.69, 0.72/0.67 and 4.0%/1.0% respectively. Uncertainty was moderately adequate as the model enveloped about 70% of the observed runoff. Future predicted runoffs were modelled for climate ensembles under three different representative concentration pathways (RCP4.5, RCP6.5 and RCP8.5). The RCP projections for all the climate change scenarios showed increasing runoff trends. The model proved efficient in determining the hydrological response of the catchment to potential impacts from climate change and human-induced activities. The model has the potential to be used for further analysis to aid effective water resources planning and management at catchment scale.

Opis:: Water quality of seasonal water rivers is on a quick decline due to various human activities arising as a result of urbanization and population growth. This study assessed the water quality of the Khassa-Chai river in Kirkuk during two seasons: winter and summer (wet and dry). Thirty-seven water samples were collected from eight monitoring observation points along the Khassa-Chai river during October 2019 and March 2020. Water samples were analyzed for various parameters such as temperature, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), turbidity, total suspended solids (TSS), total dissolved solids (TDS), color, and dissolved oxygen (DO). These physicochemical parameters were analyzed using standards methods demonstrated by the American Public Health Association (APHA). To determine the significant difference, all the results obtained were statistically analyzed. In most results, higher concentrations are out of the indicated permissible limits of the World Health Organization (WHO). It can be concluded that the most domestic wastewater effluents are discharged into the river, such as sewage coming from nearby houses and restaurants in addition to the solid waste produced from close commercial stores. To reduce the negative impact on water and human health, pollution sources need to be properly managed. The paper calls for further research to figure out the ability of the Khassa-Chai river to make the use of city water in improving the environment.

Opis:: Physical and water properties of silt loam from the area of planned football field were tested and compared with analogous properties of several composites made in laboratory conditions from the collected material with a dominant sand share. The research was conducted in a view of silt loam and its composites usefulness for constructing a carrying layer of football fields. Water permeability of silt loam and composites, as well as retention abilities were tested. The created composites met the water permeability requirements specified by DIN 18035 standard for constructing carrying layer of football fields. On the other hand, silt loam without sand admixture did not meet the requirements, but revealed a high retention capacity and water availability to plants. Among the composites the best retention capacity characterised the mixtures with the biggest content of silt loam, but the best water availability was registered in composites with medium content of silt loam from the football field area. The obtained results may be useful for more precise determination of the standards for grain size distribution of the composites used for constructing the carrying layer of a football field.

Opis:: Current and future climate conditions and their impact on water balance, ecosystems, air quality and bio and agro-climatology were investigated in the region of the Lusatian Neisse within the two EU -projects – NEYMO and KLAPS. This work focuses on the climate analysis of the region at the German-Polish border as a preliminary step for a hydrological analysis of current and future conditions. Observed climatological data were processed and analysed using the indicators air temperature, precipitation, sunshine duration, potential evapotranspiration and the climatic water balance (CWB). The latter defines the difference between precipitation and potential evapotranspiration and is a measure for the climatological water availability in the region. Observations were used to statistically downscale data from Global Circulation Models under various scenarios regarding greenhouse gas emissions (A1B, RCP 2.6, RCP 8.5) and applying the WETTREG-method for regionalization. In total, 50 climate projections for periods up until the end of the 21st century were analysed, with the application of the mentioned indicators. For the period 1971-2010, increasing trends of temperature, precipitation, sunshine duration and potential evapotranspiration were found. This leads to a reduced CWB in the summer half-year (SHY), which could be partly compensated by an increase in the winter half-year (WHY). Trends of temperature, sunshine duration and potential evapotranspiration remain positive for the far future (2071-2100), but precipitation decreases. These climatic conditions aggravate water availability, especially in the SHY. Impacts on water management are very probable and were therefore further investigated in the NEY MO project that applied hydrological models.

Opis:: The West Kazakhstan region of the Republic of Kazakhstan occupies an area equal to 151,339 km2. In the land structure, 69.7% of the area is occupied by agricultural land. The region has great prospects for the development of the livestock industry. However, uneven territorial availability of water resources is a limiting factor in increasing the amount of livestock in the region. The purpose of the study is to monitor underground water sources in the West Kazakhstan region of the Republic of Kazakhstan to assess the zonality of their placement. The boundaries of natural and climatic zones on the territory of the region were laid over the publicly available cartographic materials on the hydrological data of the distribution of groundwater. The water source monitoring was carried out by examining their actual condition in specific geographical locations, including using remote sensing methods, with a further determination of quantitative and qualitative parameters. The paper considers the state and problems of water supply at the pastures in the natural and climatic zones of the West Kazakhstan region. The region is characterized by the use of groundwater in the water supply of pasture lands. Underground springs have a certain zonality in their location, manifest themselves at different depths corresponding to different geological horizons, and differ in a wide variation of water mineralization. In the dry steppe zone, it is recommended to use the aquiferous mid-upper quaternary alluvial, aquiferous upper Pliocene Akchagyl, and aquiferous upper cretaceous Maastricht horizons. The water sources used have depths of up to 120 meters, and the mineralization varies from 0.2 to 9.1 g/dm3. In the semi-desert zone, the upper-quaternary aquiferous marine Khvalynsky and the lower-middle-quaternary aquiferous marine Baku-Khazar horizons are recommended. The water sources used have depths of up to 90 meters, and the mineralization varies from 0.2 to 11.8 g/dm3. The semi-desert zone is characterized by the use of springs with depths up to 80 meters. The mineralization of water in the permeable modern Aeolian horizon is more often low (0.11–0.9 g/dm3) and rarely brackish (1.1–9.36 g/dm3).

Opis:: Changes in runoff trends have caused severe water shortages and ecological problems in agriculture and human well-being in Nigeria. Understanding the long-term (inter-annual to decadal) variations of water availability in river basins is paramount for water resources management and climate change adaptation. Climate change in Northern Nigeria could lead to change of the hydrological cycle and water availability. Moreover, the linkage between climatic changes and streamflow fluctuations is poorly documented in this area. Therefore, this study examined temporal trends in rainfall, temperature and runoff records of Kaduna River basin. Using appropriate statistical tools and participatory survey, trends in streamflow and their linkages with the climate indices were explored to determine their amplifying impacts on water availability and impacts on livelihoods downstream the basin. Analysis indicate variable rainfall trend with significant wet and dry periods. Unlike rainfall, temperature showed annual and seasonal scale statistically increasing trend. Runoff exhibit increasing tendency but only statistically significant on annual scale as investigated with Mann–Kendall trend test. Sen’s estimator values stood in agreement with Mann–Kendall test for all variables. Kendall tau and partial correlation results revealed the influence of climatic variables on runoff. Based on the survey, some of the hydrological implications and current water stress conditions of these fluctuations for the downstream inhabitants were itemized. With increasing risk of climate change and demand for water, we therefore recommend developing adaptive measures in seasonal regime of water availability and future work on modelling of the diverse hydrological characteristics of the entire basin.
Zmiany w prawidłowościach odpływu spowodowały poważne ograniczenia w dostępności wody, problemy ekologiczne w rolnictwie oraz zmiany warunków życia ludzi w Nigerii. Zrozumienie długoterminowej zmienności (w poszczególnych latach i dziesięcioleciach) dostępności wody w basenie rzeki jest ogromnie ważne w zarządzaniu zasobami wodnymi i adaptacji do zmian klimatycznych. Zmiany klimatu w północnej Nigerii mogą doprowadzić do zmian cyklu hydrologicznego i dostępności wody. Ponadto, związki między zmianami klimatu a zmiennym odpływem wody są dla tego obszaru słabo udokumentowane. Z tego powodu w przedstawionych badaniach analizowano czasowe zmiany opadu, temperatury i odpływu wody z basenu rzeki Kaduna. Stosując odpowiednie narzędzia statystyczne i badania ankietowe, badano trendy przepływu wody i ich związki ze wskaźnikami klimatycznymi, aby udokumentować ich rosnący wpływ na dostępność wody i warunki życia mieszkańców w dolnym biegu rzeki. Analiza wykazała zmienność opadów z wyraźnymi okresami suchymi i wilgotnymi. W przeciwieństwie do opadów temperatura cechowała się statystycznie istotnym trendem rosnącym w skali pór roku i lat. Odpływ wykazywał istotną statystycznie rosnącą tendencję tylko w skali roku, co wykazano testem trendu Manna–Kendalla. Wartości estymatora Sena były zgodne z wartościami uzyskanymi z zastosowaniem testu Manna–Kendalla dla wszystkich zmiennych. Wartości tau Kendalla i korelacje cząstkowe wykazały wpływ zmian klimatu na odpływ wody. Na podstawie badań ankietowych wykazano pewne skutki hydrologiczne i aktualne warunki stresu wodnego dla mieszkańców zamieszkujących tereny w dolnym biegu rzeki. Wobec rosnącego ryzyka zmian klimatycznych i zapotrzebowania na wodę zaleca się rozwijanie środków przystosowawczych do sezonowego reżimu dostępności wody i przyszłe prace poświęcone modelowaniu zmiennych cech hydrologicznych całego basenu.
