30 cze 2016 · We investigated the ecological status of four large river basins using physicochemical water quality parameters and bioindicators by collecting samples from forest, agriculture, and urban landscapes of the Nile, Omo-Gibe, Tekeze, and Awash River basins in Ethiopia.
26 lut 2024 · The study concludes by recommending an integrated approach to managing the risks of declining water quality and shortage. This study will advance the important empirical understanding of how urban water supply and quality are impacted by environmental stresses on a global scale.
29 lut 2024 · Prospects of water conservation and watershed protection in the Upper Blue Nile Basin for sub basin cooperation. According to an international relations scholar, 24 British engineers proposed constructing water reservoirs in the Ethiopian highlands during British colonial rule in the Nile basin.
Water as a nonrenewable natural resource, combined with a fast-growing urban population and climate change, has exposed countries to increasing water-related risks. Even though the water-related risk is becoming a fast-expanding worldwide concern, it is largely ignored and understudied in Ethiopia.
