K.; Upadhyay, B. G. Abstract: Water is one of the most important natural resources and is a key element in the socio-economic development of a country. The demand of water is continuously increasing due to population growth and development in industrial and agriculture sector. Ever increasing demand and finite availability of resources is bound to increase the gap between demand and supply. For overcoming such a situation, it is very important to efficiently plan and manage available water resources. Water resources development has been so far project oriented with main emphasis in providing irrigation to agriculture land. Most developmental decisions today are multi-objective in nature involving economic, social and environmental dimensions. The present paper is an attempt to create awareness to river basin scale simulation program and application thereof 2003-01-01T00:00:00Z http://117.252.14.250:8080/jspui/handle/123456789/6936 Title: 2-Flood Control Operation of Ukai Multipurpose Reservoir - Issues and Need. Authors: Patel, D. H.; Patel, I. A. Abstract: Judicious operation of a multi purpose project with flood control as one of the benefits is of vital importance for the successful operation and management of the project. This may be of significant importance when a basin is susceptible to produce long sustained floods towards the end of monsoon season when reservoir is nearing its full level on one side and protection to downstream low lying areas on the other side is to be done when such a flood is released The operation becomes further complicated when there is a restriction for high releases to impart safety to downstream thickly habitated and highly industrialised city. Operation under such conditions needs very clear operating guidelines, advance information of flood and most importantly very well conversant operating staff. Modern mathematical tools in the form of a system models are useful in devising operating policy. But each operation and management activity needs a separate software for the solution at planning stage and another software is needed for actual operation. The need of the day is to evolve a package incorporating all these activities with each and user-friendly mode on one hand and to provide on line operation and management of the reservoir during monsoon season. Such software also helps to train the operating staff during non-monsoon season. 2003-01-01T00:00:00Z
