“…than for the catchments that drain into Lake Victoria (that lie in Tanzania, Kenya, Burundi, and Rwanda). Thus, a lumped catchment-type water balance model [40][41][42] was developed for the catchments that drain into Lake Victoria. This lumped catchment was classified into two hydrological nodes: one to represent non-irrigated and another for irrigated areas.…”

With less than 3% of agricultural cropland under irrigation, subsistence farmers in Uganda are dependent on seasonal precipitation for crop production. The majority of crops grown in the country-especially staple food crops like Matooke (Plantains)-are sensitive to the availability of water throughout their growing period and hence vulnerable to climatic impacts. In response to these challenges, the Government has developed an ambitious irrigation master plan. However, the energy implications of implementing the plan have not been explored in detail. This article attempts to address three main issues involving the nexus between water, energy, crop production, and climate. The first one explores the impact of climate on rain-fed crop production. The second explores the irrigation crop water needs under selected climate scenarios. The third focuses on the energy implications of implementing the irrigation master plan. We attempt to answer the above questions using a water balance model for Uganda developed for this study. Our results, developed at a catchment level, indicate that on average there could be an 11% reduction and 8% increase in rain-fed crop production in the cumulatively driest and wettest climates, respectively. Furthermore, in the identified driest climate, the electricity required for pumping water is expected to increase by 12% on average compared to the base scenario.

“…To quantify the change in hydrology of the basin as an impact of climate change, the comparison of streamflow and ET in baseline period and future emission scenarios is performed [37]. To determine the baseline conditions, the validated WEAP model was used to generate the streamflow and ET in the Zarrinehrud and Siminehrud River basins during the period 1986-2010.…”

Abstract:In arid and semi-arid areas, unsustainable development of irrigated agriculture has reduced the water level of large lakes such as Aral, Urmia, Hamoon, and Bakhtegan. Urmia Lake, as a hyper saline and very shallow lake, located in the northwest of Iran, has water level reductions of about 40 cm each year over the past two decades. In this research, the indices of environmental and agricultural sustainability are evaluated using performance criteria influenced by climate change and water management strategies for the Zarrinehrud and Siminehrud River basins as the largest sub-basin of Urmia Lake basin. Modeling of hydrologic behavior of these basins is performed using WEAP21 model. The model is analyzed for three future emission scenarios (A2, A1B, and B1), for the period of 2015-2040 and five water management scenarios: (1) keeping the existing situation; (2) crop pattern change; (3) improving the conveyance and distribution efficiency; (4) combining the improvement of conveyance and distribution efficiency with improving the application efficiency using modern technology; and (5) the combination of crop pattern change with the improvement of total irrigation efficiency. The results show that the highest values of indices of environmental sustainability and agricultural sustainability are related to the scenario of combining the crop pattern change with improving the total irrigation efficiency under the B1 emission scenario (B1S4).

“…The WEAP is a hydrological model developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) which is widely used to study the hydrological processes and hydrological cycle [ 22 , 23 ]. and assess the impact of climate change [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. The WEAP model includes five methods for modeling the catchment processes – Irrigation Demand Only (Simplified Coefficient Method), Rainfall Runoff (Simplified Coefficient Method), MABIA (FAO 56, dual KC, daily), Rainfall Runoff (Soil Moisture Method) & Plant Growth (daily; CO2, water and temperature stress effects).…”
