المحددات الطبيعية وأثرها في تحديد موضع ومورفولوجية بحيرة سد لينافا-دهوك: دراسة في الحصاد المائي

Abstract EN

The process of evaluating dam locations is a significant topic that requires essential information on the dam site environment to determine suitable location for constructing dams, this is to avoid problems and negative effects of the unsuitable location of the dam.

this study aims to determine the best location to build Linava dam and this will achieve two objectives.

first, to reserve and collect water for use in dry seasons as a water harvesting mechanism and second, feeding Dohuk dam lake in stored quantities (upper feeding basin area), in addition to reserving additional amount of water in the abundant seasons without wasting it unjustifiably (known as surface reservoir of the Dohuk dam lake) as it took place in the rainy season 2019-2020.

the study adopted the selection of four levels of expected heights of Linava dam based on the topographic nature with the varied storage of the amount of water.

the treasury energy of the dam was at 10-meter height estimated by 103475 m3.

while, at height of 15 meter, the amount of water collected was estimated by 158847 m3.

additionally, the estimated volume of water expected at an altitude of (18 m) reached (348125 m3).

therefore, the projected storage capacity of water (438443 m3) was at an altitude of 20 m.
