JICA field training


JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency) participants on the course "Irrigation and Drainage Technology Based on Integrated Water Management" joined me at Takiya River for basic hydrological field survey. We measured discharge in three teams using different equipment and compared the results. Sampling of the channel bed materials using the Wolman Pebble Count was also undertaken. Participants came from various countries in Africa and Asia (Cambodia, Malawi, Mozambique, Myanmar, Philippines, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda) to study for six months in Japan.
