Planning and management of water resources is crucial to enhance agricultural productivity and ensure food security in drylands. For this, adaptable and reliable runoff prediction models are urgently needed to support water harvesting and irrigation development. In this study we explored the potential of the runoff Curve Number (CN) method to estim...

Evolution of runoff and groundwater recharge in the Gaza Strip over the last four decades
Published in Environmental Earth Sciences
Gaza Strip is experiencing a severe water crisis caused mainly by overexploitation of the groundwater source. Rainfall is the only source of freshwater replenishment for the Gaza coastal aquifer. Groundwater level has dropped to more than 10 m below mean sea level as a result of aquifer exploitation and imbalance between recharge and abstraction in...
The worthiness of using information on land-use–land-cover in watershed models for Western Ghats: A case study
Published in Journal of Earth System Science
The variable source area (VSA) theory of runoff generation mechanisms has been proved to hold good in many wet mountainous areas, decades ago. According to this theory, infiltration-excess overland flow is limited to very small areas in mountainous and forested catchments. But, the perception that the land surface characteristics, including land-us...
Effects of Seasonal Variation on Runoff Curve Number for Selected Watersheds of Georgia - Preliminary Study
Proceedings of the 2007 Georgia Water Resources Conference, March 27-29, 2007, Athens, Georgia. / This study examined seasonal effects on the runoff Curve Number for five forested watersheds in Georgia. The periods between April-October and November-March were defined as the growing and dormant seasons, respectively. Annual maximum peak runoff data...
Runoff measurement and prediction for a watershed under natural vegetation in central Brazil
This work aimed to measure and analyze total rainfall (P), rainfall intensity and five-day antecedent rainfall effects on runoff (R); to compare measured and simulated R values using the Soil Conservation Service Curve Number method (CN) for each rainfall event; and to establish average R/P ratios for observed R values. A one-year (07/01/96 to 06/3...
