Climate change is normally defined as any change in climate over time, whether due to natural
variability or from human activities. It poses uncertainties to the supply and management of water
resources. Although climate ...
The surface water and groundwater resources of the country play a major role
in agriculture, hydropower generation, livestock production, industrial activities, forestry,
fisheries, navigation, recreational activities, ...
Ground-water modeling has become an important methodology in support of the planning and
decision-making processes involved in ground-water management. Ground-water models provide an analytical
framework for obtaining ...

Women play a central part in the provision, management and safeguarding of water. This pivotal role of women as providers and users of water and guardians of the living environment has seldom been reflected in institutional ...
The coastal regions, particularly deltaic regions, are the most developed and most densely populated regions all over the world.
These regions are facing many hydrological problems both due to natural conditions and man's ...
We are in a period of climate change brought about by increasing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases. Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have continually increased since the 1950s. The continuation of this ...
Groundwater is used for a variety of purposes, including irrigation, drinking and manufacturing. Groundwater
is also the source of a large percentage of surface water. Accurate and reliable groundwater resource
information ...
Groundwater is of fundamental importance in water
resources planning, development and management.
Groundwater flow has many applications, among which
are agricultural developments, domestic use such as
supply of drinking ...
Climate change and agriculture are
inter-related processes, both of which take place on
a global scale. Global warming is projected to have
significant impacts on conditions affecting
agriculture, including temperature, ...
High arsenic concentrations in groundwater in different states of India have become
a major cause of concern in recent years. The groundwater in the past was considered to be safe for drinking purposes, but
now it is ...
Unsaturated zone transport models are indispensable tools for analyzing complex environmental pollution
problems, and for developing practical management strategies. A quantitative study of water flow and contaminant
transport ...
The annual replenishable groundwater resources of India have been estimated as 431 BCM.
In addition to the annual replenishable groundwater resources in the active recharge zone,
there exists a huge groundwater resource ...

Heavy metals are toxic, persistent, carcinogenic and mutagenic in nature. Industrial
wastewater is a widely known source for metal pollution in aquatic bodies as well as surface
contamination. There are various techniques ...
Arsenic contamination in ground water, used for drinking purpose, has been envisaged as a problem of
global concern. However, arsenic contamination of ground water in parts of South East Asia is assuming
greater proportions ...

The hydrologic effects of forest use and reforestation of degraded lands in the humid tropics has implications
for local and regional hydrologic services but such issues have been relatively less studied when
compared ...
Soil erosion is common in mining area that practices place mining and hydraulic mining techniques. Due to the moving and removing of Soil in the area, ground soil is no longer firm.
Venkatesh, Basappa; Lakshman, N.; Purandara, B. K.(Springer, 2014)
We review the current status of experimental studies in India
to understand the linkages between afforestation and hydrology. This
discipline deals with the use and management of water, social awareness
of environmental ...

The effects of forest degradation and use and establishment of tree-plantations on degraded or modified
forest ecosystems at multi-decadal time-scales using tree-plantations on the streamflow response are
less studied ...
