Hydroclimate Changes to Arid regions subjected to Impact of climate change, human activities, and Large-scale climate patterns by Shereif Hassan Mahmoud A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Water Resources Engineering Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering University of Alberta © Shereif Hassan Mahmoud, 2020 Abstract In recent years, many regions worldwide have suffered from natural hazards related to the impact of human activities and climate change, such as floods and droughts, sea level rise, extreme weather events and an accelerated hydrological cycle. In Africa, the driest continent on Earth, climate change has led to more frequent occurrences of droughts of greater severity. Beside climate change, human activities have also incurred negative environmental impact which in turn has likely affected the climate at a wide range of temporal-spatial scales worldwide. For example, in the Middle East, floods of greater magnitude have been occurring more frequently in recent decades, which could be attributed partly to rapid urbanization or the effect of climate change, or both. In the Nile River basin (NRB), recurring droughts and increasing population have led to rising tension between competing users for water. Therefore, to develop more effective mitigation strategies against the potential impact of climate change, there is an urgent need to better understand changes to the hydrologic cycle of arid regions and linkage to regional climate change. The objectives of this dissertation are: 1) To investigate the potential implications of urbanization and climate change to the flood risk of Egypt and Saudi Arabia of arid climate in the Middle East. -

Aim: to develop an instrument to measure penetration of lean thinking for frontline nursing staff. Methods: A methodological mixedresearch design was utilized in all hospitals that are affiliated to the Ministry of Health and Population at El-Beheira Governorate (n= 21). Subjects: Jury group (n=55), divided into two groups: academic experts (n=10) and clinical/professional experts (n=45).Tools: tool one: Frontline Lean Thinking(FLT) Instrumentand tool two: opinnionaire sheet and a demographic data sheet for study subjects. The tool development was executed based on five steps: (1) Content domain specification; (2) Item pool generation; (3) Face & content validity evaluation; (4) Reliability assessment; lastly, (5) Instrument refinement. Results: The study findings revealed that the majority of expert groups agreed on the final version of the developed FLT Instrument with the three levels, namely: organization, unit and individual with its ten sub-domains. Conclusion: the overall result from panel of experts: both academics and clinical/professional experts showed that the developed FLT Instrument has face and content validity. -

Journal of American Science 2015;11(11) http://www.jofamericanscience.org Environmental Impact on Water Resources at the Northwestern Part of the Nile Delta, Egypt Awad S.R.1, El Fakharany M.A2 and Hagran N.M.3 1Research Institute for Groundwater, El-Kanater El-Khairia, Egypt 2Department of Geology, Faculty of Science, Benha University, Egypt. 3Drinking Water Supply Company, Giza, Egypt. [email protected] Abstract: Surface water and groundwater in the northwestern part of the Nile Delta is of vital importance for domestic, agricultural, and industrial water supply. The increases in population together with the agricultural and industrial development have resulted in increasing pollution of water resources. The main objective of the present study is to assess the environmental impact on the quality of water resources in the study area. To achieve that, surface water and groundwater samples have been analyzed for major ions, nitrates, and trace elements, in addition to detection of total and fecal coli-form bacteria. The distribution maps for different pollutants in groundwater are carefully studied. Results indicate that both surface water and groundwater in the study area are suffering from quality problems. The majority of the studied area are characterized by fresh water (TDS <1000 ppm) with low contents of Na, Cl, and SO4 and the groundwater is suitable for drinking. High contents are recoded mostly at the northwestern portions as local polluted zones distributed within the area. This is referred to extensive withdrawing in the newly reclaimed areas in the northwestern portions and to the existence of local pollution sources resulted from the infiltration of domestic, agricultural and industrial wastes in the intensive populated area. -

Trends in the Epidemiology of Brucellosis in a Highly Afflicted Region in Egypt: a 16 Year Experience (1997-2012)

El-Ghitany1, Sherif R. Omar1, Amany M. Abaza2 Ezzat M. Hassan1 and Ekram W. Abd El- Wahab1* 1Tropical Health Department, High Institute of Public Health, Alexandria University, Egypt. 2Damanhour Fever Hospital, Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population, Egypt. Authors’ contributions All authors contributed equally to the manuscript. Received 21st September 2013 th Original Research Article Accepted 18 November 2013 Published 16th December 2013 ABSTRACT Background: Brucellosis is a serious re-emerging zoonosis which vastly afflicts human health and animal productivity. The reported incidence may under-represent the real burden of the disease that has drastically evolved during the past decade. Incomplete epidemiological data particularly from developing countries and remote areas reflects partly the lack of accurate disease diagnosis and under reporting. This necessitates the comprehensive review of past experiences and disease trends over time to tailor proper intervention and control strategies. Aim: This hospital based study is an attempt to explain reasons beyond the evolution and alteration of brucellosis epidemiology in a highly burdened rural region in Egypt over 16 years (1997-2012). Methods: All cases of human brucellosis admitted to Damanhour fever hospital from 1997 to 2012 were analyzed. During 2007, the study was complemented by a detailed patient evaluation and disease description. Data about animal brucellosis were reviewed from records in the veterinary sector. Results: A total of 4371 [2609 (59.7%) males and 1762 (40.3%) females, median of age=31 years] brucellosis cases were reviewed during the study period. -
