Progress of using risk assessment to manage small drinking-water supplies in Rwanda: a preliminary study
(MDPI- Processes, 2023-03)The World Health Organization promotes risk assessment and risk management through Water Safety Plans (WSPs) as the most effective way to manage drinking-water supplies. Despite proven advantages of this approach in other ... -
The relationship between water pressure variations and drinking-water quality in small water supplies: A case of Mukono District, Uganda
(Environmental Challenges, 2023-09)The supply of a safe and adequate quantity of water is essential for human health and socioeconomic devel- opment. Physiochemical and microbiological quality of water supplied in piped distribution systems can be affected ... -
Suitability of averaged outputs from multiple rainfall-runoff models for hydrological extremes: a case of River Kafu catchment in East Africa
(Springer link:International Journal of Energy and Water Resources., 2020-05-26)In this study, seven rainfall-runoff models were applied to model daily River Kafu flows from 1952 to 1981. Among others, models from the rainfall-runoff library of the eWater toolkit were applied. Optimal parameters of ... -

Turbidity reduction efficacies of seed kernels of Mango (Mangifera indica) genotypes in Uganda
(Elsevier, 2023-10)Alum and ferric salts as traditional chemical coagulants for turbidity removal in water and wastewater are expensive, and have known harmful effects. Thus, attempts to replace the chemical coagulants with safe and effective ... -
Water availability trends across water management zonesin Uganda
(Atmospheric Science Letters, 2021-06-21)This study assessed trends in gridded (0.25° × 0.25°) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) precipitation, potential evapotranspiration (PET), and precipitation minus PET (PMP) across the four water management zones ...
