The spatial and temporal variability of the hydro-climate as well
as land use and land cover (LULC) changes are among the most
challenging problems facing water resources management.
Understanding the interaction between climate variability, land use
and land cover changes and their links to hydrology, river
morphology and ecohydrology in the Dinder and Rahad basins in Sudan
is confronted by the lack of climatic, hydrological and ecological
data. This book investigated the impacts of land degradation on the
Dinder and Rahad hydrology and morphology, and interlinkage to the
ecohydrological system of the Dinder National Park (DNP) in Sudan.
It used an ensemble of techniques to improve our understanding of
the hydrological processes and LULC changes in these basins. This
included long-term trend analysis of hydroclimatic variables, LULC
changes analysis, field measurements, rainfall-runoff modelling,
hydrodynamic and morphological modelling of the Dinder river and
its floodplain, with special focus on the Mayas wetlands. Moreover,
this research is the first study to investigate the eco-hydrology
of the DNP. It is expected that the results of the study will be
beneficial to all stakeholders concerned and support
decision-making processes for better management of water resources
and ecosystem conservation in the area and possibly beyond.
