A dam was built on the watercourse with a storage capacity of 98 million m<sup>3<\/sup>. Depending on the topographic maps 1: 50,000, geological maps 1: 200000, satellite images, climatic data of the dam station (precipitation, temperature and evaporation), runoff data from the Directorate of Water Resources in Latakia, and land use data of the watershed, the geometric features of the basin, and water budget were studied and the land use map was prepared. The results of geometric characteristics showed that the watershed was elongated and the shape factor value was greater than (1), so the flood hazard was low. The results of the water budget showed that more than 65% of precipitation is lost by evaporation, and the runoff reaches 30%. The land use map showed that about 55% of total area is cultivated with olive and citrus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key words:<\/strong> Watershed, Al-Sanaobar river, Al Thowra Dam, Water budget, Water losses.<\/p>\n<p>Full Paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/sjar\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/v6n2p36.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ammar Abbas*(1) (1).
