ISSN: 1868-8578 CICD Series Vol.1: LARS 2007 Proceedings Preface Volume One This new publication - CICD Series - has been established to present experiences and re- sults from university engagements in development cooperation which started almost two decades ago at Siegen University, Research Institute for Water and Environment. CICD stands for Centre of International Capacity Development, a University Siegen re- search centre established by the Senate in November 2008 at the initiative of senior profes- sors of the departments of architecture, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, elec- trical engineering and informatics. The aim is to coordinate and support development research and capacity building throughout the university, thereby reflecting the contribu- tions of all disciplines relevant to development cooperation. The managing director of CICD serves as chief editor of the CICD Series; other individu- als or teams may edit the single volumes. This first volume Proceedings of Lars 2007 - Lake and Catchment Research presents the findings of the university component of the technical cooperation project “Assistance to Arba Minch Water Technology Institute - Ethiopia”, which lasted from 1989 to 2007. Siegen University was involved in this programme by organising the university coopera- tion scheme since 1993. The German Government, the Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development sponsored the project under the Ethio-German development cooperation treaties. It was executed by GTZ - German Development Cooperation. Lars 2007 stands for the Lake Abaya Research Symposium 2007, which was organised by the two partner Universities in May2007 in Arba Minch; the first one - Lars 2004 - took place in Addis Ababa in 2004. Further results of this university cooperation programme are going to be published in the CICD Series with several doctoral dissertations and a compilation of master thesis re- search.

  • I UNCERTAINITY REDUCTION in CLIMATE and HYDROLOGICAL MODELS PREDICTIONS at CATCHMENT SCALE in the UPPER GREAT RUAHA RIVER SUB-BA
    i UNCERTAINITY REDUCTION IN CLIMATE AND HYDROLOGICAL MODELS PREDICTIONS AT CATCHMENT SCALE IN THE UPPER GREAT RUAHA RIVER SUB-BASIN, TANZANIA EDMUND ISHENGOMA MUTAYOBA A THESIS SUBMITTED IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF SOKOINE UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE. MOROGORO, TANZANIA. 2019 ii EXTENDED ABSTRACT Water resources have become scarce in most tropical areas of Tanzania due to climate change. Any changes to the hydrological cycle may have significant effects on the water resources in the river basins of Tanzania. The impact of climate change on water resources in Tanzania have been studied using General Circulation Models (GCM) which run at low spatial resolutions of 100-300 km. The resolution is too coarse to provide useful information about climate change impact in small catchments as many physical processes which control local climate e.g.; vegetation, hydrology, topography is not fully parameterized and hence results on uncertainty in model prediction. The main aim of this research was to quantify the uncertainty in model predictions for the Mbarali River Sub-catchment of the Upper Great Ruaha River Sub-basin in the Rufiji River Basin, Tanzania. Three research objectives were analyzed; the first objective was to evaluate the performance of the Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment Regional Climate Model (CORDEX, Regional Climate Models) in simulating rainfall characteristics of the Mbarali River Sub catchment. The area weighted average method was used to calculate the average rainfall from the CORDEX RCMs and from ERA-Interim reanalysis over the entire Mbarali River sub-catchment. Comparison between rainfall data from CORDEX RCMs and ERA-Interim reanalysis was done to test the ability of the CORDEX RCMs to reproduce the annual cycles, interannual variability, annual total and trends of rainfall as presented by the ERA-Interim reanalysis.

  • The Impact of Future Climate and Land Use/Cover Change on Water Resources in the Ndembera Watershed and Their Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies Canute B
    Hyandye et al. Environ Syst Res (2018) 7:7 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40068-018-0110-4 RESEARCH Open Access The impact of future climate and land use/cover change on water resources in the Ndembera watershed and their mitigation and adaptation strategies Canute B. Hyandye1,2* , Abeyou Worqul3, Lawrence W. Martz4 and Alfred N. N. Muzuka1 Abstract Background: Land use/cover and climate changes have a great infuence on the hydrological processes in the water- shed. The impacts of land use/cover and climate change are set to increase in the future due to the increased clearance of virgin forest lands for agriculture and the rise of global warming. The way in which the future climate will interact with the land use changes and afect the water balance in the watersheds requires more attention. This study was car- ried out in the Ndembera river watershed in Usangu basin, Tanzania, whereby the Soil and Water Assessment Tool was used to (i) assess the impact of near future (2010–2039) climate and 2013–2020 land use/cover change on the water balance and streamfow and (ii) evaluate the efectiveness of four land and water management practices as the mitiga- tion and adaptation strategies for the impacts of climate and land use/cover changes. The 2020 land use/cover was predicted using Markov Chain and Cellular Automata models based on 2006 and 2013 land use/covers. The near-future climate scenario was generated from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 5 General Circulation Models. Results: During the period from 2013 to 2020, the agricultural land and evergreen forests will increase by nearly 10 and 7%, respectively.

I now turn to the hardest thing of singling out a few, but cognisant of the fact that it is not strange to at times forget some major contributors. I start with my family, which has not only contributed in various physical ways, but also had to always endure my absence and sometimes diverted attention, as I pursued my studies. I, in that regard, particularly extend my gratitude to my wife and children and also the parents, brothers and sisters. For similar reasons, I also extent my thanks to the colleagues at work and, generally, the friends, most of whom have always supported my ambition. I, equally appreciate the support and company of my fellow students and staff at Cardiff post graduate school. On the part of my employers, my appreciation to the local governments I served while on this study; the ministry of local government; the public service commission; and, generally, the government of the Republic of Uganda. Last but not least, my appreciation to the Centre for Business Relationships, Accountability, Sustainability and Society (BRASS), for the financial support, mentoring and learning experience. Relatedly, I thank the schools of law, business and city and regional plan, some of whose staff we closely and variously collaborated.
