Impact of land use and land cover change on the magnitude of surface runoff in the endorheic Hayk Lake basin, Ethiopia

Article highlights The major land use and cover changes undertaken in the endorheic Hayk Lake basin between 1989 and 2015 were detected and linked to changes in rainfall-runoff relationship using the HEC-HMS hydrological model. The simulation result indicated that the change in land use and cover ra...

description Article highlights The major land use and cover changes undertaken in the endorheic Hayk Lake basin between 1989 and 2015 were detected and linked to changes in rainfall-runoff relationship using the HEC-HMS hydrological model. The simulation result indicated that the change in land use and cover raised surface runoff individually, but its combination with climate change had a negative impact on Hayk Lake's water level. Presented the scientific understanding of the integration of remote sensing, GIS, and the hydrological model at the local level can help to address the persistent threat of water level reduction in Hayk Lake.
