These are very important things for political and planning decision-makers, as the city suffers from repeated exposure to the risk of floods as a result of its occurrence directly below the Al-Lith valley basin. In order to reach these goals, the (Light Detection and Ranging, Lidar) data was analyzed to build and develop a two- dimensional model of the depth, speed and spread of water using a hydraulic model (Hydrologic Engineering Center-River Analysis System, HEC-RAS) to calculate the risk matrix of floods.

Status and Ecology of Sirenian, Cetaceans and Marine Turtles in the Farasan Bank, Red Sea, Saudi Arabia
JKAU: Mar. Sci., Vol. 26. 1, pp: 1-8 (2016 A.D. / 1437 A.H.) DOI :10.4197/Mar. 26-1.1 Status and ecology of Sirenian, Cetaceans and marine turtles in the Farasan Bank, Red Sea, Saudi Arabia Ahmed M. A. Al-Mansi Saudi Wildlife Authority Email: [email protected] Abstract. This paper presents preliminary data regarding the status, general distribution and habitat use of cetaceans, sirenian and marine turtle species inhabiting the Farasan Bank in the south-east of the Red Sea. The survey was conducted in April 2009 as part of a joint project by the Khaled Bin Sultan Living Ocean Foundation and the Saudi Wildlife Authority. With respect to habitat use of these species, the Common Dolphins, Delphinus delphius, were recognized in the offshore waters around the islands and the reefs; whereas the Bottlenose Dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, showed a preference for deeper waters. The Hump- backed Dolphins, Sousa chinensis, were sighted near an island with mangrove swamps and the Spinner Dolphins, Stenella longirostris, inhabited sheltered shallow water. The Bryde's whales, Balaenoptera edeni, were found in offshore waters which are of high productively. The Dugongs, Dugong dugon, used shallow water habitats characterized by seagrass meadows. The habitat use of the marine turtles found in the study area was also distinct. The Hawksbill turtles, Eretmochelys imbricata, were recorded within the coral reefs, whereas the Green Turtle, Chelonia mydas, were seen near the seagrass beds. The results of this study provide an important baseline data on the ranges and abundance of some endangered animals. These data along with a greater understanding of species distribution and habitat use will prove to be important for the proposing the Farasan Bank as Marine Protected Areas in this part of the Red Sea.

Correspondence to: Mohamed Daoudi ([email protected]) 10 Abstract. This study on the southern Riyadh area examines the ERS-1/2 and ENVISAT satellites data' ability of detecting Early Quaternary-Holocene trans-tensional Central Arabian graben system morphology. It also, test the hypothesis of potentially geohazardous arid region for the consequent dissolution-induced collapses and karstifications and possible recent faults reactivation. Eight Single Look Complex (SLC) amplitude images are calibrated, filtered, georeferenced, orthorectified, and filtered at a resolution of 20 metres, and compared with one another by producing 17 diachronic images of the pairs at different 15 intervals (1996, 2003-2005, 2008). The diachronic SAR intensity imageries suggest a downthrown displacement reaching 600 m and eastward tilting at the bottoms of the grabens. Also, the structurally-controlled valleys are developing an eastward-running drainage system towards the oasis of Al-Kharj and capturing an older hydrologic system. Moreover, a 12-year period (1996- 2008) of the SAR data was obtained to examine the average annual rate of southern Riyadh’s anthropological sprawl, which is estimated at approximately 390 metres/year over the 12 years and constrained by geomorphological features towards the 20 deformed area.
