    Nanda, J. N. (National Institute of Hydrology, 1987)
    Eversince Bellman's (1957) book on Dynamic Programming (DP), new avenues have opened up for the reservoir operation or control problems. The computational effort required to solve a multireservoir control ...
  • 26-On regulation regime function of a reservoir. 
    Jain, Sharad K. (National Institute of Hydrology, 1987)
    Reservoirs are the most effective way of regulating streams flows. The inflow process, the reservoir storage and the outflow processes together constitute the stream flow regulation system. The three important ...
  • 27-Integrated water management in urban areas - Benefits. 
    Achutan, K. (National Institute of Hydrology, 1987)

  • 28-Climatological approach for estimating evapotranspiration of upland Paddy. 
    Sahu, S. K.; Sharma, S. D. (National Institute of Hydrology, 1987)
    Studies were conducted to establish an equation which would be useful in predicting evapotranspiration (ET) for upland paddy. The parameters of the equation are temperature, sunshine hour, wind velocity and relative ...
  • 29-Consumptive use and water requirement of Cowpea. 
    Bhardwaj, S. P. (National Institute of Hydrology, 1987)

  • Numerical modelling of ground water flow using MODFLOW 
    Kumar, C. P. (Discovery Publications, 2013)
    Ground water models provide a scientific and predictive tool for determining appropriate solutions to water allocation, surface water – ground water interaction, landscape management or impact of new development scenarios. ...
  • Hydrological Studies Using Isotopes 
    Kumar, C. P. (GLOBEEDU Group, 2013)
    Isotope hydrology is a field of hydrology that uses isotopic dating to estimate the age and origins of water and its movement within the hydrologic cycle. Water molecules carry unique fingerprints, based in part on differing ...
  • Assessment of groundwater potential 
    Kumar, C. P. (Materials and Energy Research Center, 2012)
    Water balance techniques have been extensively used to make quantitative estimates of water resources and the impact of man's activities on the hydrologic cycle. On the basis of the water balance approach, it is possible ...
