District Hardwar falls under the vast alluvial tract of Quaternary deposits of Indo Gangetic plains in Uttaranchal. It is bordered by river Ganga in the east, foot-hills of Himalayas in the north and districts Saharanpur ...

Hooghoudt's drain spacing formula is based on an implied assumption that in the radial flow zone there is no spatial variation in the flux and hence no vertical recharge in this zone. The head loss in the radial flow zone ...

Information on the degree-day factor for snow and ice is required for the estimation of snow and ice melt runoff from a glacierized basin. In the present study, degree-day factor for snow and ice are computed over Dokriani ...

The purposes which a reservoir is intended to serve is an important consideration in planning and operation of the reservoir. Since the functional, infrastructural and operating requirements of a conservation storage ...

Eco-friendly and sustainable management of water resources is indispensable in coastal and deltaic regions due to their unique nature of hydrological processes and economic significance. Since coastal areas are characterised ...

Hydrologic simulation studies provide a useful and important input to water resources planning and watershed management practices. The Soil Conservation Service (SCS, 1956) Curve Number (SCS-CN) method is a widely used ...

In areas with periodic irrigations or high intensity rainfall, the assumption of a steady recharge is no longer justified. Under these conditions, unsteady state solution of the flow problem must be applied. A knowledge ...

India is a vast country with varying topography, climate, and people of different cultures. Because of exploding population, it faces tough tasks in the rational use of its limited natural resources, i.e., vegetation, soil, ...

Water balance of a lake depends upon the relative importance of various inputs and outputs to and from the lake. Evaporation loss constitutes one of the major output from a lake under Indian ...

In order to assess the predictive significance of the meteorological parameters to forecast the discharge for a high altitude glacierized basin, correlations have been determined between mean daily discharge and precipitation ...
