There is a need to search for new water resources to supply, with drinkable water, Damascus City and its rural suburbs. The aim of the paper is to carry out a hydrological study and to develop a simple model characterizing AUAGE watershed behavior. This watershed is one of the two important basins in the region of Damascus. All water resources, used presently, are not sufficient to insure the growing needs of drinkable water. Studies that aim to supply Damascus from the coastal basin indicate that this solution is very expensive and will not be operational before 2010, which means that Damascus will suffer from water shortage during the next few years.

International river basins are characterized by their wide extent where mapping earth surface features and drawing contours by topographic team become–somehow- impossible because the cost and efforts consumed to execute it become very high and may exceed reasonable limits. Here it becomes necessary to use digital elevation models (DEM) inferred by specialized scientific organizations using remote sensing. There are several DEMs available on the internet and downloadable for free. The primary factor in defining the models efficiency in building hydrological models not the least cost but the maximum reliable results and better resolution that adequate to the capabilities of the PCs. In this study, three DEMs were used to derive and build hydrological models for the Euphrates-Tigris basin using Geographic information system techniques. The resulted boundaries of Euphrates-Tigris basin were compared with three boundaries implemented by international research organizations (UNEP, ESCWA, and FAO). As a conclusion of this comparison, the SRTM—3arc DEM was the most efficient model among used models. In addition, this study indicated the necessity to reevaluate Basin’s boundaries and correct the spatial distribution of proportion for basin area between the riparian countries.
Understanding natural language requires common sense, one aspect of which is the ability to discern the plausibility of events. While distributional models---most recently pre-trained, Transformer language models---have demonstrated improvements in m odeling event plausibility, their performance still falls short of humans'. In this work, we show that Transformer-based plausibility models are markedly inconsistent across the conceptual classes of a lexical hierarchy, inferring that a person breathing'' is plausible while a dentist breathing'' is not, for example. We find this inconsistency persists even when models are softly injected with lexical knowledge, and we present a simple post-hoc method of forcing model consistency that improves correlation with human plausibility judgements.
Hydrological studies in Syria- in general- based on classical methods to derive catchment areas of road culverts or estimating the design storm for these catchments. Such operations have a significant degree of complexity, effort and time costing, up to implementing clear concept about streams crossing the road and deriving the catchments boundaries to estimate the designing storm discharge according to road classification and passing facility type preventing road inundation or demolition. In this study the GIS technique was used to derive catchments for all outlets on this road and the morphological properties were estimated. The developed hydrological model for studied road allows designers to evaluate more accurate solutions in such engineering cases like determiningthe best locations for culverts on roads, estimating design storm and design discharge for those outlets and all other engineering characteristics “designing parameters” such as longitudinal slope, span, area, number of openings. as it allows the development of various economic solutions in order to choose the best one from both engineering and economic view points, according to road classification and storm probability.

The Alsafarqieh watershed is located on the western slopes of the coastal mountain range, Its area is 132.58 km2, It forms a part of the Alros river basin, The river starts at a height of 1200 m, A group of tributaries meet and form the Alros River , which flows into the Mediterranean Sea. Salaheddin Dam was constructed to store 10 MCM on the riverbed at the intersection of the Qurdaha River with the Shehada River. The study aims to determine the rainfall- runoff relationship in The Alsafarqieh watershed. The solution depends on the statistical analysis of precipitation and runoff data. Then the study found the mean annual precipitation is 159.6 MCM/year, and the mean annual flow into the Salaheddin lake was 9.4 MCM during the study period (2010-2012), so the runoff coefficient is 0.06. This indicates a significant water loss. A mathematical equation to predict the runoff quantities depending on the values of precipitation, has been concluded. This is important to study water projects for water storage and flood prevention.
