Groundwater is one of the most valuable natural resources that many developing countries possess. Without improved management and closer protection, groundwater resource will suffer irreversible deterioration on a widespread ...

This study encompasses the detailed hydro geological investigation carriedout in the Basaltic terrain of eastern part of Amravati region which represents lower dissected plateau of Deccan trap formation. The characteristic ...

Coastal regions are characterised by the interaction of land, sea and atmosphere. Therefore, sustainable management of coastal areas pre-supposes integrated management of coastal waters, coastal lands and coastal ecosystems. ...

Subsurface drainage plays an important role in lowering the water table in case of excess irrigation and recharge due to rainfall. The shallow groundwater table affected by the recharge in the presence of drainage is ...

Subsurface drainage seems to be one of the feasible solutions to solve the problem of waterlogging and salinity, because by providing adequate drainage, both the excess water and harmful salts can be appropriately removed ...

Nainital Lake located in the Kumaun Himalayan region in northern India is a major drinking water source to the people living in and around the lake basin. Unfortunately, detailed computations of the lake water balance have ...

Environmental tritium has been used to identify the recharge zones and sources to groundwater, in parts of Ganga - Yamuna Doab, western Utter Pradesh, India. The study area is characterized by thick alluvial deposits and ...

The knowledge of the physics of soil water movements in the unsaturated zone is very important for the studies related to watershed hydrology, irrigation and recharge to groundwater. The design and functioning of subsurface ...

An integrated watershed development programme for soil and water conservation was undertaken in 424 hectare at Hingonia-Pipliyatapha watershed. The present study was carried out to assess the impact of soil and water ...

Saltwater intrusion is a serious environmental problem in coastal subsurface water systems around the world. In the development of subsurface water protection and rehabilitation strategies, computer simulated models play ...
