Assessment of Sedimentation Status of Ruiru Reservoir, Central Kenya
Stanley K. Maloi, Joseph K. Sang, James M. Raude, Urbanus N. Mutwiwa, Bancy M. Mati, Caroline W. Maina
American Journal of Water Resources. 2016 4 (4). doi: 10.12691/ajwr-4-4-1
Keywords: reservoir sedimentation, area specific sediment yield , reservoir volume
Context: ...ows that the reservoir has lost about 11-14% of its storage capacity in 65 years. Results further showed that the Area Specific sediment yield (ASY) was 38.84 Mg ha-1 y-1, which is higher than the tolerable soil loss of 2 to 18 Mg ha-1 y...

American Journal of Water Resources. 2026 14 (1). doi: 10.12691/ajwr-14-1-2
Keywords: heavy rainfall trends, sediment yield , small dams, WRF-GFDL model, hydrological Modeling, Sota catchment
Context: ...the Modified Mann-Kendall test and the Theil-Sen slope estimator. The impacts of changing heavy rainfall patterns on runoff and sediment yield were simulated using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), applied to the Sota catchment. The findings reveal mixed heavy ...
