英文摘要 | One of the major issues in the arid region is the availability of hydrological data for hydrological studies of the catchments for water resources projects. Since the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) is a huge country and contains many arid catchments it is awfully expensive and time-consuming to make hydrological networks for studying all these catchments. Therefore, the Affinity Propagation (AP) clustering technique is proposed to cluster catchments into groups that are similar in morphological, hydrological, and land cover characteristics and defining an exemplar (a representative catchment) to each group. This catchment is utilized for the installation of a detailed hydrological network. The hydrological response of that catchment can be transferred and scaled appropriately to other catchments in the cluster since they are hydrologically and morphologically similar. A pilot study is performed on 18 sub-catchments in the southwestern part of KSA. GIS software is used to extract catchment attributes and the clustering process is performed using the AP cluster packages in R software. The results show that four clusters are obtained based on the morphological attributes (twenty-eight attributes), five clusters based on hydrological attributes (twelve attributes), and three clusters based on land cover and CN (three kinds of land cover as attributes). The AP clustering technique was evaluated by the construction of a correlation matrix that shows a high correlation of 0.817-0.999. This study provides a robust technique that is effective and efficient to identify the similarity of catchments and can help hydrologists to develop a catchment management application in arid regions. |
