SDD (Small dams index) defined as the number of small damos per square root of basin area. See the research article cited in the 'Credits' filed. The index is calculated per each quaternary basin of South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland.

The dataset is the new version of water use data in https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.897933 with some revision in the coordinate in the dataset. The dataset constitutes the first reconstructed global water use data product at sub-annual and sub-national/gridded resolution that is derived ...

Dams, and their associated reservoirs, provide the ability to store water for later use, provide hydropower and provide some level of protection from extreme precipitation events. If designed correctly, dams allow water to be available at times when in its absence it would not be avail ...
