Water scarcity and stress affect communities globally. Societies have been defined by their access to water; its social, technological, environmental, economic, and political impacts permeate every aspect of civilization. One important, though often overlooked, driver of water scarcity is that of reduced water system viability due to storage volume loss attributed to unsustainable sedimentation generation within the watershed. Traditionally, sediment modeling and management is a costly process, requiring extensive field data collection, resources, complex computational modeling, and highly trained personnel. The purpose of this thesis was to develop a theoretical framework by which individuals and organizations can determine the sedimentation susceptibility of a reservoir of interest under defined conservation and degradation scenarios using open access remotely sensed data, GIS-based analysis programs, and a simple open one-dimensional geomorphic model. The framework was then implemented in three hydrologically and geologically distinct locations in the Darien province of Panama and the Western Peninsula of Sierra Leone. Each system was subjected to predefined deforestation, forest degradation, and conservation scenarios and the results were analyzed to assess the impact of variations in their land cover and hydrologic profile on reservoir sustainability. It was found that the developed framework results in gradient of change estimates for the impact of these scenarios on reservoir sustainability and can be applied using exclusively open access remotely sensed data. This framework reduces resource, data, and training barriers that otherwise limit the ability of stakeholders to model and evaluate how changes to watersheds and conservation strategies affect water resources and water scarcity.
