  • Environmental Impacts of Natural and Man-Made Hydraulic Structures
    International Journal of Application or Innovation in Engineering & Management (IJAIEM) Web Site: www.ijaiem.org Email: [email protected], [email protected] Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2014 ISSN 2319 - 4847 Environmental Impacts of Natural and Man-Made Hydraulic Structures-Case Study Middle Zambezi Valley, Zimbabwe Samson Shumba1, Hodson Makurira2, Innocent Nhapi3 and Webster Gumindoga4 1-4Department of Civil Engineering, University of Zimbabwe, P.O Box MP167 Mount Pleasant, Harare, Zimbabwe ABSTRACT The Mbire District in northern Zimbabwe lies in the Lower Middle Zambezi catchment between the man- made Kariba and Cahora Bassa dams. The district is occasionally affected by floods caused by overflowing rivers and, partly, by backwaters from the downstream Cahora Bassa hydropower dam. This flooding affects soil properties due to rapid moisture fluxes and deposition of fine sediments and nutrients. Despite the hazards associated with the floods, the riparian communities benefit from high moisture levels and the nutrients deposited in the floodplains. The residual moisture after flooding events enables the cultivation of crops just after the rainfall season with harvesting taking place around July-August. These periods are outside the normal rainfed agricultural season elsewhere in Zimbabwe where such flooding is not experienced. This study sought to investigate the soil moisture and nutrient dynamics in relation to natural and man-made flood occurrence in the Middle Zambezi valley of Zimbabwe. Twelve trial pits were dug using manual methods along four transects at three different study sites across the floodplain during the period April 2011 to May 2012. At each trial pit, three soil samples were collected at depths of 0.2 m, 0.5 m and 1.2 m and these were analysed for moisture content, nutrient status, pH, texture and electrical conductivity.

  • Large Hydro-Electricity and Hydro-Agricultural Schemes in Africa
    FAO AQUASTAT Dams Africa – 070524 DAMS AND AGRICULTURE IN AFRICA Prepared by the AQUASTAT Programme May 2007 Water Development and Management Unit (NRLW) Land and Water Division (NRL) Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Dams According to ICOLD (International Commission on Large Dams), a large dam is a dam with the height of 15 m or more from the foundation. If dams are 5-15 metres high and have a reservoir volume of more than three million m3, they are also classified as large dams. Using this definition, there are more than 45 000 large dams around the world, almost half of them in China. Most of them were built in the 20th century to meet the constantly growing demand for water and electricity. Hydropower supplies 2.2% of the world’s energy and 19% of the world’s electricity needs and in 24 countries, including Brazil, Zambia and Norway, hydropower covers more than 90% of national electricity supply. Half of the world’s large dams were built exclusively or primarily for irrigation, and an estimated 30-40% of the 277 million hectares of irrigated lands worldwide rely on dams. As such, dams are estimated to contribute to 12-16% of world food production. Regional inventories include almost 1 300 large and medium-size dams in Africa, 40% of which are located in South Africa (517) (Figure 1). Most of these were constructed during the past 30 years, coinciding with rising demands for water from growing populations. Information on dam height is only available for about 600 dams and of these 550 dams have a height of more than 15 m.

  • Coping with Floods – the Experience of Mozambique1
    1st WARFSA/WaterNet Symposium: Sustainable Use of Water Resources, Maputo, 1-2 November 2000 COPING WITH FLOODS – THE EXPERIENCE OF MOZAMBIQUE1 Álvaro CARMO VAZ Professor, Faculty of Engineering, Eduardo Mondlane University Director, CONSULTEC – Consultores Associados Lda. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT A summary review is made of the major floods that have occurred in Mozambique since the Independence in 1975, describing the most important negative impacts and consequences. Various types of measures for flood mitigation are analysed, considering how they have been used in past floods and their potential for coping with floods in the future. These measures are grouped into structural (dams, levees, flooding areas, river training) and non-structural measures (flood zoning, flood management, flood warning systems, emergency plans, raising awareness, insurance). The paper briefly refers the need for adequate and comprehensive reports on past floods and some related research areas. 1 THE FLOOD PRONE RIVERS OF MOZAMBIQUE More than 50% of the Mozambican territory is part of international river basins – from South to North, the Maputo, Umbeluzi, Incomati, Limpopo, Save, Buzi, Pungoé, Zambezi and Rovuma, see figures 1 and 2. All these rivers have their flood plains inside Mozambique, with the exception of the Rovuma river that forms the border between this country and Tanzania. The largest basins are the Zambezi (1,200,000 Km2) and the Limpopo (412,000 Km2) and the smallest one is the Umbeluzi (5,600 Km2) with the others ranging from about 30,000 to 150,000 Km2. The climatic conditions of Mozambique indicate that the country is subject to various types of events that can originate floods: cyclones and tropical depressions from the Indian Ocean and cold fronts from the south.
