    Abstract: Hydraulic simulation models could be suitable tools for understanding the hydraulic characteristics of irrigation systems. In this study HEC-RAS model will be tested in terms of error estimation and used to determine canal capacity potential. Thiba main canal reach in Mwea Irrigation Scheme (MIS), approximately 100 Kilometers North East of Nairobi ... Show More
