Contributions of Human Activities and Climatic Variability to Changes in River Rwizi Flows in Uganda, East Africa
This study employed Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to analyze the impacts of climate variability and human activities on River Rwizi flows. Changes in land use and land cover (LULC) types from 1997 to 2019 were characterized using remotely sensed images retrieved from Landsat ETM/TM satellite...
