Abstract:
Egyptian Northern Coastal lakes (Mariout or Mariut, Edku or Edko or Idku, Burullus or Borollus, Manzala and Bardawil) could be a source of wealth for Egypt if the Egyptian and the concerning authorities intend, plan, and implement the needed measures to keep the lakes sustainable. Therefore, The Egyptian Coastal Lakes and Wetlands in two volumes is produced by the Egyptian researchers and scientists to help and support who are interested in these lakes. This second volume is divided into four parts consisting of 11 chapters written by 14 authors. It focuses on climate change, biodiversity, zooplankton, fish and fisheries, water quality modeling, and remote sensing applications. Part I of this volume consists of three chapters dealing with the impacts of climate change and water quality modeling. In the chapter titled “Environmental and Climatic Implications of Lake Manzala, Egypt: Modeling and Assessment,” the author presents the results of water quality modeling for Lake Manzala and their assessment and their connections to climate change. On the other hand, the chapter “Modeling of Water Quality Parameters in Manzala Lake Using Adaptive Neuro- Fuzzy Inference System and Stochastic Models” discusses the capabilities of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and stochastic models in prediction of water quality parameters based on field measurements in Manzala Lake. The use of ANFIS proved its effectiveness as a simple tool to predict water quality parameters and for onsite water quality parameters’ evaluation. The chapter titled “Investigating the Impacts of Dredging on Improving the Water Quality and Circulation of Lake Mariout via Hydrodynamics” presents the results of hydrodynamics modeling of Lake Mariout based on testing different scenarios
