Article scientifique 2020 Anglais

Résumé

Climate changes is a global phenomenon exhibited by three prominent signals, that is: (1) global average temperatures are gradually increasing, (2) changes in global rainfall patterns and (3) rising of sea levels. The objective of this paper is review climate change impact on hydrologic flows of five basins of Ethiopia. This study reviewed climate change impact studies in five basins of Ethiopia: Blue Nile, Awash basin, Baro Akobo, Central Rift valley and Tekeze basin. Several studies approved that Ethiopia is vulnerable to climate change since the economy of the country mainly depends on agriculture, which is very sensitive to climate change. Water harvesting technology is very important to minimize climate change impacts.
