• TITLE: Hydrological Study on the Rehabilitation of Aghor Pond for Refugee Livestock in the Commune of El Meghve, Mauritania

  AUTHORS: Ibrahima Faye, Momath Ndiaye

  KEYWORDS: Livestock, Pond, Flood Discharge, Refugee, Mitigation

  JOURNAL NAME: Journal of Water Resource and Protection, Vol.17 No.9, September 19, 2025

  ABSTRACT: This study presents a hydrological analysis for the rehabilitation of Aghor Pond in Mauritania to support refugee livestock. Using topographic, soil, and hydrological data, the authors designed hydraulic structures to increase the pond’s storage capacity to 315,178 m3 and extend its water retention. The study determines key parameters such as project flood discharge and sediment deposition to ensure the dam’s stability and operational effectiveness. The findings support a plan to mitigate water scarcity for local and refugee communities.
