  • Water Balance Variability Across Sri Lanka for Assessing Agricultural and Environmental Water Use W.G.M
    Agricultural Water Management 58 (2003) 171±192 Water balance variability across Sri Lanka for assessing agricultural and environmental water use W.G.M. Bastiaanssena,*, L. Chandrapalab aInternational Water Management Institute (IWMI), P.O. Box 2075, Colombo, Sri Lanka bDepartment of Meteorology, 383 Bauddaloka Mawatha, Colombo 7, Sri Lanka Abstract This paper describes a new procedure for hydrological data collection and assessment of agricultural and environmental water use using public domain satellite data. The variability of the annual water balance for Sri Lanka is estimated using observed rainfall and remotely sensed actual evaporation rates at a 1 km grid resolution. The Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL) has been used to assess the actual evaporation and storage changes in the root zone on a 10- day basis. The water balance was closed with a runoff component and a remainder term. Evaporation and runoff estimates were veri®ed against ground measurements using scintillometry and gauge readings respectively. The annual water balance for each of the 103 river basins of Sri Lanka is presented. The remainder term appeared to be less than 10% of the rainfall, which implies that the water balance is suf®ciently understood for policy and decision making. Access to water balance data is necessary as input into water accounting procedures, which simply describe the water status in hydrological systems (e.g. nation wide, river basin, irrigation scheme). The results show that the irrigation sector uses not more than 7% of the net water in¯ow. The total agricultural water use and the environmental systems usage is 15 and 51%, respectively of the net water in¯ow.

  • Development of a Regional Transport Plan: Case Study of Proposed Horana Growth Center
    DEVELOPMENT OF A REGIONAL TRANSPORT PLAN: CASE STUDY OF PROPOSED HORANA GROWTH CENTER Amal S Kumarage, J Baratha Dodankotuwa, Ravindra Wijesundara, and Namali Sirisoma Department of Civil Engineering, University of Moratuwa Paper Presented at the Engineering Research Unit Symposium 2001 University of Moratuwa ABSTRACT The major objective of this paper is to set out the strategy of developing a regional transport plan that complies with other zoning and land use proposals. The Horana Growth Center (HGC) study has been used as a case study to illustrate this process. The paper seeks to identify issues in transport with respect to capacity, level of service and the quality of transport such as – average speed, parking, roads and related service conditions etc. The strategies used in the development of a plan include long-term, medium-tern and short-term in proposals in order to make the HGC a sustainable and growth-oriented center. The proposed new highways such as the Southern Highway, Outer Circular Highway, South-east Highway and a Radial Rapid Transit have been investigated for their long-term development impacts while road widening and improvements to existing road network, relocation of the wholesale market, a new bus terminal and introduction of a loop of bicycle lanes have been introduced as medium and short-term proposals. These proposals collectively represent a regional transport development plan for the HGC and for the larger hinterland. The approach and methodology of the data collection and analysis have been presented in a manner that they can be used as a case study for future application in similar circumstances.
