Municipal management involves making decisions on various technical issues, and one such crucial aspect is the multicriteria decision-making process. When choosing suitable locations for wastewater treatment plants, it becomes necessary to consider a range of factors as feasibility, economic viability, environmental impact, ecological aspects, requirements. However, evaluating these criteria dealing with uncertainties can be complex. To address this challenge in Tabuk region, combination two powerful analytical methods, fuzzy hierarchy process (FAHP) geographical information system (GIS), were employed. The FAHP methodology allows considering subjective judgements, while GIS provides spatial analysis capabilities. By combining GIS, thorough evaluation potential plant was conducted by determining relative weights each geospatial parameter. These then used generate suitability map, visually representing most favourable areas site selection. resulted higher importance given plant’s distance urban areas, followed roads among seven investigated parameters. integrated FAHP-GIS model results show that western parts region are constructing plants. findings valuable facilitating identifying optimum area. In summary, integrating assessment enables decision-makers technical, economic, environmental, ecological, thereby providing comprehensive framework selection replicated other regions different conditions. This approach enhances municipal promotes more informed effective planning region.

ABSTRACT Rainfall is the major component of hydrologic cycle and it primary source runoff. The main purpose this study was to estimate daily discharge by employing an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) model using rainfall soil moisture data at three different depths (5 cm, 100 cm bedrock) for Damanganga basin. length period 1983–2022 39 years. employed nine membership functions each variable moisture, rainfall, 30 rules were optimized. results compared considering a range performance indicators as correlation coefficient (R2) Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) coefficient. application shows that bedrock gives more precise value with NSE 0.9936 0.9981, respectively, 5 cm. better obtained measurement in deeper layer are consistent hydrological behavior anticipated analyzed catchment, where root-zone driver runoff response rather than surface observations. This can be helpful hydrologists selecting appropriate rainfall–runoff models.

This study aims to better understand the time series forecasting of Aglar and Paligaad rivers' discharge (which has a significant impact on Himalayan river) using advanced methods such as Holt-Winters (HW) additive method, Simple exponential smoothing (SES), Non-seasonal ARIMA models. used antecedent information forecast next event. Comprehensive statistical examinations were conducted analyzed. The highly stochastic nature these river trends adds complexity efforts requires sophisticated modeling techniques that are capable capturing interpreting variability accurately. models proposed in current provide reliable for 15 months 31 recorded data. analysis shows both HW non-seasonal model results indicate decay end 2016 early 2017. best performance long-term forecasting, indicating sharp increase spring small during fall months. However, short-term non-ARIMA should show more promising results. methodologies substantially improve accuracy all consecutive perennial rivers.
