- [This article is a revision of a chapter from my dissertation on the range of water sources and types of irrigation in Yemen. It covers seasonal floods, wells, springs and cisterns, qanats and surface runoff. This journal, now published at Exeter University, replaced the original Arabian Studies. Reprinted in Varisco (1997).]
- [GeoJournal is an international journal of geography, published in Dordrecht. The article was solicited by Prof. Mushtaqur Rahman (Iowa State University) for a special issue on the geography of the Muslim World. My article describes indigenous methods of plant protection among Yemeni farmers based on field research conducted for Yemen's Ministry of Agriculture with a Yemeni research team in 1992. In addition to the documentation, the article discusses recommendations for integrated pest management in Yemen. Reprinted in Varisco (1997).]
- [This article was solicited by Dr. Dennis Warren (Iowa State University) for a special issue highlighting indigenous agricultural knowledge. The article provides information obtained during ethnographic study of highland Yemeni agriculture and examines development implications. Online article at: http://www.aiys.org/webdate/terrace.html.]
- [In this invited article I discuss the role of land use and tenure on agricultural development projects in Yemen with specific focus on a USAID project I worked on. The article draws on ethnographic data and development experience.]
- [This is a popular article describing research conducted in Yemen and Kenya for the World Wildlife Fund on rhino conservation . The article looks at the marketing and use of rhino horn for making daggers in Yemen and suggests recommendations for curbing the trade.]
- [This is the journal of the Fauna and Flora Preservation Society in England. My article describes my wildlife conservation project on rhino conservation for World Wildlife Fund in 1987.]

The article argues that the production and marketing of the stimulant plant qat (Catha edulis) in Yemen has been beneficial to small Yemeni farmers, despite the fears of development officials that it is a drain on the economic system.]
- [This is a newspaper article about my research for World Wildlife Fund on rhino conservation in Yemen.]
- [In this article I present the main thesis of my Ph.D. work on the ecology of irrigation in Yemen. The article compares highland spring irrigation (which I studied in 1978-79) with information on coastal flood systems. I argue that tribal political organization is an adaptive response to highland spring flow allocation but undergoes stress in coastal flood systems with the potential for major upstream-downstream conflict.
