Estimation of ungauged Bahr el Jebel flows based on upstream water levels and large scale spatial rainfall data

Estimation of ungauged Bahr el Jebel flows based on upstream water levels and large scale spatial rainfall data

The study derives Bahr el Jebel flow data at Mongalla, combining upstream flow from Lake Albert and torrential runoff derived from the Collaborative Historical African Rainfall Model (CHARM) rainfall data in the catchment between Lake Albert and Mongalla using GIS techniques. The results provide an...
