The study presents investigations of the runoff from snow and ice, carried out in the high alpine basin of the Rhône river at Sion (3371 km 2 , 491 -- 4634 m a.s.l.). Using satellite remote sensing data, features like the ...
Theme 8-2-Temporal orbital satellite images in the drought assessment and early warning decisions.

Nagarajan, R. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

The dependency on rainfall for agriculture and household purpose is very high in Deecan plateau. The crop failure not only leads to scarcity of food but also fodder. The water availability needs to be assessed immediately ...
Theme 8-3-Estimation of regional evapotranspiration for a part of WYC command using remote sensing technique.

Ambast, S. K.; Keshari, A. K.; Gosain, A. K. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

Past experience on evapotranspiration has provided sound theoretical knowledge and practical applications that have been validated through field measurements. In spite of its ubiquity, the estimation of evapotranspiration ...
Theme 8-4-An algorithm for monitoring snow water equivalent in ungauged catchments using GIS.

Morid, S.; Gosain, A. K.; Keshari, A. K. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

Monitoring of Spatial variation of snow water equivalent (SWE) and its temporal variation are important analysis in snowy terrain and have a significant role in watershed management. In spite of importance of this analysis, ...
Theme 8-5-Assessment of sediment deposition pattern in Bargi reservoir using digital image processing.

Goel, M. K.; Jain, Sharad K.; Agarwal, P. K. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

A reservoir is an integral component of a water resources system. Periodic evaluation of sediment deposition pattern and assessment of available storage capacity of reservoirs is an important aspect of water resources ...
Theme 8-6-Soil erosion and sediment yield modeling using GIS.

Kothyari, U. C. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

A Geographical Information System (GIS) based method is discussed and demonstrated for prediction of storm sediment yield from catchments. In the method discussed herein the catchments are discretized into hydrologically ...
Theme 8-7-Satellite based irrigation performance monitoring - Case study over upper Tapi irrigation command, India

Jeyaseelan, A. T.; Babu, A. V. Suresh; Shanker, M.; Chandrasekar, K. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

Remote sensing technology is increasingly being applied in various water resources development and management activities. In irrigation water management, remote sensing is used as a tool for both performance evaluation of ...
Theme 8-8-Identification of potential water harvesting sites using GIS & remote sensing technologies - A case study of Sadiyagad watershed, central Himalaya, India.

Ramprasad, B. K.; Miral, M. S.; Pant, R.; Rao, K. S. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

The identification of water resources and its proper management practices are very essential with respect to the population growth and their increasing needs. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) ...
Theme 8-9-Geographic information system (GIS) approach for sustainable land resources development of watershed.

Kar, Gouranga (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)

A study was taken up in 'Yacharam' watershed of Ibrahimpatnam block of Ranga Reddy district, Andhra Pradesh (17O00/ to 17O05/ N latitudes and 78O35/ to 78O45/ E longitudes) to map different basic natural resources of ...
Theme 8-10-Soil erosion modelling using satellite remote sensing and GIS.

Jain, M. K. (National Institute of Hydrology, 2000)
