The temporal and spatial geomorphological variations due to coastal processing and establishment of shore protection structures along El-Burullus coastal area were investigated in two ways. The first way is to study the stretches surf, breaker and offshore zones as perpendicular to the shoreline and the second way is to focus on three regions of interest along the shoreline (El-Burullus lake outlet, Balteem beach, and Kitchener drain outlet). Geostatistical Analyst model was used as advanced GIS technique to interpolate the data gathered from field campaigns and laboratory work. The results of grain size analyses of the sediments indicated fine sand is the dominant size in surf (0.16 mm) and breaker (0.15 mm) zones, while very find sand is in offshore (0.11 mm) zone. The sediment sorting in the three zones is recognized as moderately well sorted. Certainly, the moderately sorted sites have a mixing between indigenous and allochthonous sands. Variation of depth during the two successive years 2015 and 2013 was used as indicator of coastal processing in this area to identify the sites of erosion and accretion. The depth indicator revealed that the majority of the coastal area of El-Burullus is in erosion status with little accretion sites. Texture characteristics of sediments were used to recognize the depositional environments in the three interested areas. The dominant finer sand can attributed to deposition at low energy condition. Sorting investigation revealed that indigenous sediments were detected.

Primarily, literature in the field of solar ponds and clean energy was assembled, reviewed, analyzed and categorized to deduce data about solar pond locations and analyze. Accordingly, different variables were considered such as road networks and different countries. In addition, land cover as environmental parameter was considered. Furthermore, technical variables like direct normal radiation, temperature, wind, and relative humidity were taken into consideration using control points covered this area where a number of control points reach 65500 points each point calculated the mean wind, temperature, relative humidity, and direct normal radiation from thirt...

Primarily, literature in the field of remote sensing and GIS technologies were assembled and scrutinized. In addition, data regarding build zones, agricultural areas and bare soil regions so as water were assembled from different resources (i.e., Ministry of Agriculture). Remote sensing and GIS techniques were implemented. Results were obtained and analyzed. Finally, conclusions were deduced and recommendations were suggested. The research flagged-out that the GCR designated a drastic agriculture land loss of 10%. In addition, the research confirmed that built-up areas increased by 10% during 2000-2016. On the other hand, the results indicated that Giza and Qalyubia Governorates recorded the...

However, the Government can enhance water management and sustainable development by adopting policies that enable water demands and supply management. Therefore, there is a need for unconventional methods to provide better tools for the assessment and management of water quality problems. The main objective of this study is to use Geographic Information System (GIS) to in-follow and predict the nutrients pollutants in the water by applying statistical analysis within GIS by using Geostatistical Analyst. The study was conducted through two main phases. The first is the field work to obtain spatial data in sample points taken at different locations in the experimental area that necessary to assess the pollutants and use GIS to store and manipulate this geographic information. The second is applying statistical analysis within GIS by using Geostatistical Analyst to create interpolated surface...

Taking into consideration the environmental aspects of drainage water reuse, the diffuse pollution of water resources from agricultural sources (fertilizers) is a major environmental issue. A high percentage of applied fertilizers is lost because of poor management, which leads to nutrients leaching through different crop rotations. An integrated precise tool to predict nitrate leaching is needed for the adoption of management policies to address water quality problems and to establish limits for sustainable drainage water reuse. To quantify and analyze subsurface nitrate leaching, a combination model of the system was made in DRAINMOD-N software. The study was applied to the Mashtul Pilot Area, Egypt, as a case study. In addition to analyzing subsurface nitrate leaching, the model calculated nitrate leaching for the year 2020 for the area. The model...

Soil salinity is a significant attractive problem for agriculture in irrigated areas. As a result, monitoring of soil salinity is required for salinization control. One of the greatest challenges faced by Egypt’s decision-makers is the acquisition of reliable integrated soil salinity information to introduce and recommendation of a simple approach to formulating a guideline for stakeholders. Saline affected areas are vast, making it extremely difficult to examine soil quality with field and laboratory data to provide reliable approach to forecast and monitor soil salinity. Objective of this paper is to research remote sensing and ArcGIS tools by Geo-Statistical Analyst techniques to map saline-sodic heavy clay soils of the Tina plain area in Egypt. Tina Plain characterizes a serious area for potential development of agricultural land in Egypt. Satellite images were downloaded by Landsat...
