  • 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 ...
  • 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, ...
  • Rakhecha, P. R.; Singh, V. P. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    This paper summarizes a number of studies on Indian rainfall from an applied perspective. The aim is to provide rainfall statistics which can be of use in design and construction of a wide range of water resources development ...
  • Wagener, Thorsten (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Current hydrologic predictions are notoriously unreliable if we lack sufficient observations of the hydrologic variable of interest (most often strearnflow). In this paper we show how catchment classification can contribute ...
  • Mohanty, Binayak P.; Das, Narendra N.; Jana, Raghavendra B.; Ines, Amor V. M. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • 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 ...
  • Remesan, Renji; Shamim, Muhammad Ali; Han, Dawei (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Reference crop evapotranspiration (ET0) is a key influential factor in many agricultural and hydrological projects. Alexandris and Kerkides (2003) and Alexandris et al. (2006) proposed a new empirical formula for hourly ...
  • Chandramouli, P. N.; Hariprasad, K. S.; Ojha, C. S. P.; Gopal, Talari Venkata (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    The inverse problem of determining unsaturated soil hydraulic properties from one-dimensional, transient infiltration event is analyzed. Hydraulic properties are assumed to be described by Van Genucheten's (1980) model. ...
  • Nune, Rajesh; Pasupuleti, Srinivas; Kurra, Sunil Raju (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    The primary objective of this study is to develop a time series model to predict the rainfall for Musi Reservoir Rain gauge station for the future years. Water is an important resource for the development of any community ...
  • Mehrotra, R.; Sharma, Ashish (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Many hydrological and agricultural studies require simulation of weather variables that reflect the spatial and temporal dependence observed in point rainfall at multiple locations. This paper assesses three approaches for ...
  • Xu, Chong-Yu; Singh, V. P. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Potential evaporation is one of the important inputs to hydrological models and actual evapotranspiration is one of the important output components of hydrological models. In general evapotranspiration provides the second ...
  • 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 ...
  • Sreedevi, P. D.; Nabi, A.; Ahmed, S.; Perrin, J.; Dewandel, B. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    An experiment to natural recharge the aquifer through defunct dug-wells by allowing the water from a catchment surrounding it to fall into the wells and seep through the bottom as well as walls of the dugwell has been ...
  • Wheater, H. S.; McIntyre, N.; Jackson, B. M. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Around the world, rural land use and land management are changing. Effects are often subtle, and not possible to detect from catchment-scale data analysis. There is a need for new methodologies that can represent the local ...
  • Rai, R. K.; Gundekar, H. G.; Sarkar, S.; Mathur, B. S. (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Unit hydrograph approach is one of the commonly used techniques employed for the determination of flood hydrographs. For this purpose various distribution functions have been utilized in the past. The suitability of the ...
  • Bachu, Murthy; Jadhav, Kunal; Chendes, Viorel (Allied Publishers Pvt. Ltd., New Delhi, 2009)
    Spatially explicit hydrodynamic flood models can play an important role in natural hazard risk reduction. A key element of these models that make them suitable for risk reduction is the ability to provide inundation ...
