Challenges of poor surface water drainage and wastewater management in refugee camps (2016)
Journal Article
Ajibade, O. O., Tota-Maharaj, K., & Clarke, B. (2016). Challenges of poor surface water drainage and wastewater management in refugee camps. Environmental and Earth Sciences Research Journal, 3(4), 53-60. https://doi.org/10.18280/eesrj.030402

Since refugee camps are meant to be temporary and setting them up usually require urgency, little attention has been given to provision of surface water drainage and to a lesser extent wastewater management. As the population of refugees in these cam... Read More about Challenges of poor surface water drainage and wastewater management in refugee camps.

Flash flooding as a threat to settlements even in remote areas (2016)
Journal Article

Desert environments are subject to flash floods in wadi floors, which may occur only once every decade or two in a given wadi (dry channels or valleys, except during rains). In areas of rapid growth, flood-prone areas can become urbanized in the time... Read More about Flash flooding as a threat to settlements even in remote areas.

Trend analysis of nutrient loadings in a large prairie catchment (2016)
Journal Article
Morales-Marín, L. A., Chun, K. P., Wheater, H. S., & Lindenschmidt, K. E. (2017). Trend analysis of nutrient loadings in a large prairie catchment. Hydrological Sciences Journal, 62(4), 657-679. https://doi.org/10.1080/02626667.2016.1255747

Nutrient loadings in many river catchments continue to increase due to rapid expansion of agriculture, urban and industrial development, and population growth. Nutrient enrichment of water bodies has intensified eutrophication which degrades water qu... Read More about Trend analysis of nutrient loadings in a large prairie catchment.
