Abstract:
A sizable  number  of  Journals  in  the  field   of   hydrology   and water   resources   are  published.   It   is  not   a  easy  task  to  go through  all  of  them  by  the  scientists  involved  in   different studies   and projects.	Also   some   hydrological   institutes, NGO's, regional   centres   cannot   have   all   journals   in   their Library.  So  it	will  be  convenient  to  have  a  compilation   of hydrology   related   research papers and data published in a set of  journal  for dissemination by the concerned hydrologist. 
It  has  been  decided  to  review  five  National  Journals  and  five International	Journals	to	identify	the	relevant information/research papers of topical interest for the last  two years   i.e., 1996-1997. The   abstract   of   the   papers   have been  collected   only  for  two  national  and  four  International journals  because  some  journals  have  not  been  procured  in  this period.  It  can   be a  source  of  appropriate   and   useful   source for	ready	reference	for	the present	status	of hydrological problems   and   their   solutions   in   the   emerging frontiers of hydrology relevant  to  the  country.
