Aquifer recharge from flash floods in the arid environment: A mass balance ap...Amro Elfeki
Estimation of the infiltration/natural recharge to groundwater from rainfall is an important issue in hydrology, particularly in arid regions. This paper proposes the application of The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) mass balance model to develop infiltration (F)–rainfall (P) relationship from flash flood events. Moreover, the NRCS method is compared with the rational and the Ф-index methods to investigate the discrepancies between these methods. The methods have been applied to five gauged basins and their 19 sub-basins (representative basins with detailed measurements) in the southwestern part of Saudi Arabia with 161 storms recorded in 4 years. The F–P relationships developed in this study based on NRCS method are: F = 39% P with R2 = 0.932 for the initial abstraction factor, λ = 0.2. However, F = 77% P with R2 = 0.986 for λ = 0.01. The model at λ = 0.01 is the best to fit the data, therefore, it is recommended to use the formula at λ = 0.01. The results show that the NRCS model is appropriate for the estimation of the F–P relationships in arid regions when compared with the rational and the Ф index methods. The latter overestimates the infiltration because they do not take λ into account. There is no significant difference between F–P relationships at different time scales. This helps the prediction of infiltration rates for aquifer recharge at ungauged basins from monthly and annual rainfall data with a single formula.

This research presents a two-dimensional flood inundation modelling in urbanized areas when some features such as roads, buildings, and fences have great effect on flood propagation. Wadi Qows located in Jeddah City, Saudi Arabia was chosen as case study area because of the flood occurrence of 2009 causing lots of losses either economic or loss of life. The WMS and HEC-RAS program were used for a hydraulic simulation based on channel geometry built by incorporating urban features into DEM using GIS effectively. A resampling method of DEM 90 × 90 m become 10 × 10 m grid cell sizes was conducted to produce a higher resolution DEM suitable for urban flood inundation modelling. The results show that a higher resolution leads to increasing the average flood depth and decreasing the flood extent. Although the change of the grid cell sizes does not affect its elevation values, this approach is helpful to perform flood simulations in urban areas when high resolution DEM availability is limited. In addition, the integration of WMS, HEC-RAS and GIS are powerful tools for flood modelling in rural, mountainous and urban areas.

Development of Flash Flood Risk Assessment Matrix in Arid Environment: Case S...Amro Elfeki
Risk indices and risk matrix have been used among governmental agencies for assessing risks and ranking alternatives protection measures. The popularity of risk matrices can be associated with its characteristics to quick assessing risk and providing inexpensive solutions. The risk assessment is associated with flood protection as: economic, environmental, and life-safety. Economic risks are reasonably well dealt with by the well-known traditional cost-benefit analysis, insurance, and financial markets. Environmental risks are difficult to assess by traditional methods in flood project evaluation. Environmental consequences cannot be directly measured, while social risks represent the most challenge to quantify. It may be possible to estimate the number of fatalities, and cost of damaged infrastructures, while the social aspects cannot be measured. This paper is proposing a flood risk matrix technique for assessing risks in urban arid and extreme arid regions demonstrated through case-study application on the catchment of Taibah University (TU) and Islamic University (IU) in Medina, KSA. The study focused on assessing the geographical impacts of the flash flood inundated depths for different frequencies from 5 to 100 years return periods leading to identification of the flood channels, and its floodplains that may be vulnerable to different degrees of flood hazards.

Abstract:
Most studies on unit hydrograph theory is developed for temperate regions and to the best of the authors’ knowledge, there is no studies on this topic in arid regions because of the lack of runoff measurements. This paper presents the derivation of a unit hydrograph of a Allith basin and its S-curve in the south western part of Saudi Arabia to be used to predict flash flood more accurately in this region. The derivation is based on the method of stream flow data that has been collected from measured rainfall and runoff storms in the region. The study resulted in the unit hydrograph of 1 hr duration and the S-curve that is used to transfer the hydrograph to any other durations. This unit hydrograph can be used to predict flash floods in Allith basin and similar watersheds.

Empirical equations for estimation of transmission lossesAmro Elfeki
Transmission losses is caused by infiltration into the streambed in ephemeral streams. The conventional methods for flood routing in wadis is impossible to achieve due to transmission losses. The Muskingum routing procedure in its basic form has two parameters, the channel time lag, Km, and the weighting parameter, x. However, both parameters do not consider transmission losses of floods in channels. O’Donnell 1985 introduced a third parameter, α, in the continuity equation to allow for the lateral movement of floodwater. Elfeki et. Al (2014) carry some modifications of the assumptions such that the negative sign of the parameter α represents transmission losses. In this research, the third-parameter α has been investigated as a tool for estimation of transmission losses using data from Yiba catchment in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A spreadsheet model will be developed to deduce the equations.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.
