    A review of multiple approaches to the problem of soil hydraulic parameter estimation at different spatial scales is presented. Methods reviewed include traditional bottom-up approaches, as well as newer top-down approaches ...
  • Khodke, U. M.; Gundekar, H. G. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Estimation of accurate reference crop evapotranspiration (ET)) is necessary for a reliable irrigation management system. This paper deals with evaluation of seven reference crop evapotranspiration (ET0) methods viz. 1982 ...
  • Manfreda, Salvatore; Caylor, Kelly K.; Scanlon, Todd M. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    The description of soil moisture dynamics is a challenging problem for the hydrological community, as it is governed by complex interactions between climate, soil and vegetation. Recent research has achieved significant ...
  • Unami, Koichi; Kawachi, Toshihiko; Miyauchi, Ayako (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    The Shallow Water Equations (SWEs) are applicable to vast range of practical problems where water flows dominantly in the horizontal directions. The finite volume method is effective for numerically solving the SWEs in ...
  • Babu, P. Suresh; Mishra, S. K.; Singh, Vijay P. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Any new development of an alternative (or innovation) to extend, generalize, or to improve a methodology requires an understanding of its state-of-the-art. This understanding entails a critical review of historical ...
  • Sakia, Mimi Das; Sarma, Arup Kumar (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Floods due to failure of dams induce widespread damages to life and property owing to its high magnitude and unpredictable sudden occurrence. The response time for such flood is quite small compared to natural floods. ...
  • Agarwal, Avinash; Ahmad, Tanvear; Singh, R. D. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    The rainfall-runoff process is a highly non-linear complex process due the spatial and temporal variability of precipitation patterns and watershed characteristics. The understanding and modelling of rainfall-runoff ...
  • Lohani, A. K.; Goel, N. K.; Bhatia, K. K. S. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    The problem of transformation of rainfall into runoff has been a subject of scientific investigations throughout the evolution of the subject of hydrology. A number of investigators have tried to relate runoff with the ...
  • Gaur, M. L.; Mathur, B. S. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Effective overland roughness happens to be the key parameter of Kinematic Wave (KW) models, which truly govern's the overall success of model application in terms of surface runoff simulations. Most of the researchers ...
  • Mukhopadhyay, Biswajit; Dutta, Aniruddha; Nouri, Fariborz; Kaushik, Chitranjan (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Traditionally, urban storm sewers, meant to convey excess runoff from impervious covers efficiently, are designed with the applications of rational formula of hydrology with all of the conceptual limitations of the method. ...
  • Panu, U. S.; McKenna, Dominic; Tomlinson, Daniel (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Vitality of the Neebing-Mclntyre Floodway based on a variety of climatic and geometrical boundary conditions has been evaluated. A numerical hydraulic model of the floodway was developed. Sensitivity analysis of the floodway ...
  • Dhore, K. A.; Khare, Deepak; Chaube, U. C.; Garg, P. K. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Surface runoff is one of the major components in watershed hydrology. The amount of runoff generated from any watershed depends on the many watershed characteristics such as land use, soil type and its physical properties, ...
  • Dwivedi, Vijay K.; Ojha, C. S. P.; Choubey, V. K. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    The Upper Bhopal Lake in the city of Bhopal in the State of Madhya Pradesh of India is the only source of water for the city of Bhopal. Economic as well as recreational activities of the city of Bhopal is dependent on the ...
  • Trivedi, Harsh V.; Singh, J. K. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Rainfall-runoff is a nonlinear process and can be modeled with a nonlinear modeling framework. The process of rainfall to runoff transformation involves a complex mechanism and it is quite difficult to understand too. To ...
