A GIS-based approach in drainage morphometric analysis of Kanhar River Basin, India
The study indicates that analysis of morphometric parameters with the help of geographic information system (GIS) would prove a viable method of characterizing the hydrological response behaviour of the watershed.

Microglanis cottoides (Boulenger, 1891) (Siluriformes: Pseudopimelodidae): distribution extension to Salí-Dulce River basin, northwestern Argentina [PDF]
Microglanis cottoides (Boulenger 1891) is a known Paraná-Plata River basin catfish. Its geographic distribution is herein extended to a new drainage system, the Salí-Dulce River system, northwestern Argentina, which is a separate drainage from the Paraná-

Recurrence plots from altimetry data of some lakes in Africa [PDF]
The paper shows recurrence plots obtained from time series of the level variations of four lakes in Africa (Nasser, Tana, Chad and Kainji). The data, coming from remote sensing, are provided by the United States Department of Agriculture. The recurrence plots allow a good visual comparison of the behaviours of local drainage basins.

Economic valuation of improved management of Dechatu drainage basin in Dire Dawa Administration, Ethiopia [PDF]
This paper assesses households’ awareness of the causes of drainage basin degradation and measures their willingness to pay for improved drainage basin management. Cross-sectional data were collected from 398 randomly-selected households.

To reduce soil salinity: the role of irrigation and water management in global arid regions across development phases [PDF]
Reducing soil salinization of croplands with optimized irrigation and water management is essential to achieve land degradation neutralization. The effectiveness and sustainability of various irrigation and water management measures to reduce basin-scale salinization remain uncertain.

Channel-belt scaling relationship and application to early Miocene source-to-sink systems in the Gulf of Mexico basin [PDF]
In past decades, numerous studies have focused on the alluvial sedimentary record of basin fill. Paleo–drainage basin characteristics, such as drainage area or axial river length, have received little attention, mostly because the paleo–drainage system ...

Basins of attraction on random topography [PDF]
We investigate the consequences of fluid flowing on a continuous surface upon the geometric and statistical distribution of the flow. We find that the ability of a surface to collect water by its mere geometrical shape is proportional to the curvature of the contour line divided by the local slope.

Scaling mean annual peak flow scaling with upstream basin area [PDF]
Understanding how annual peak flow, $Q_p$, relates to upstream basin area, $A$, and their scaling have been one of the challenges in surface hydrology. Although a power-law scaling relationship (i.e., $Q_p \propto A^\alpha$) has been widely applied in the literature, it is purely empirical, and due to its empiricism the interpretation of its exponent ...

Synchrotron-based pore-network modeling of two-phase flow in Nubian Sandstone and implications for capillary trapping of carbon dioxide [PDF]
Depleted oil fields in the Gulf of Suez (Egypt) can serve as geothermal reservoirs for power generation using a CO2-Plume Geothermal (CPG) system, while geologically sequestering CO2. This entails the injection of a substantial amount of CO2 into the highly permeable brine-saturated Nubian Sandstone.
