Identification of suitable sites for rainwater harvesting structures in arid and semi-arid regions: A review

Identification of suitable sites for rainwater harvesting structures in arid and semi-arid regions: A review

Harvested rainwater is an alternative source of water in arid and semi-arid regions (ASARs) around the world. Many researchers have developed and applied various methodologies and criteria to identify suitable sites and techniques for rainwater harvesting (RWH). Determining the best method or guidel...
