Overview

Randomized trial identifies suitable rainwater harvesting sites in northern Iraq, indicating potential for sustainable water management.

Key Points

  • To develop a methodology for selecting optimal rainwater harvesting sites considering climate change impacts.
  • Utilized remote sensing and geographic information systems for geospatial data processing.
  • Employed AHP for decision-making in site selection based on multiple criteria.
  • Implemented WLC for systematic evaluation of site suitability under historical and future climate conditions.
  • Historical precipitation values ranged from 270 to 490 mm; future projections decreased to 255 to 390 mm.
  • Suitability zones for future RWH sites were classified as 6.1% very high, 18.3% high, 31.2% moderate, and 44.4% low suitability.
  • Strong correlation between rainfall and runoff was observed, 95% for historical and 98.83% for future data.
