This book presents an up-to-date, systematic and scientific analysis of water resource problems in India and suggests measures to overcome them through effective water management. In addition, the book provides an overview of how changes in legislation, policies, institutional responsibilities, science, technology, practical techniques and public perception have influenced the ways of river management over the past years.
River water conservation is a planned activity connected with various habitat features and outlines how to conserve all river water spread across the world. The restoration and conservation of river water must be of the highest priority for sustaining humanity and ecology for the present and future generations. In order to solve the water problems, conservation and recycling of water should be made mandatory for all domestic, industrial and agricultural projects. Apart from the priority to watershed development, rainwater harvesting and other appropriate conservation measures should be adopted to create awareness among the public so that their mind-set, attitudes and habits change proactively and they adopt sustainable practices rather than wait for legislation and regulations. The book augments the knowledge base of behaviour of rivers and evaluates the issues related to rivers so as to develop river system management techniques emerging from in-depth scientific analyses. It is useful for students, researchers, water resource managers, hydrologists and all those who are engaged or interested in any aspect of river water conservation and management of water resources in the country.Land Use Land Cover Changes and Climate Change Impact on the Water Resources: A Study of Uttarakhand State.- Remote Sensing Monitoring of water productivity in agricultural crops - A Review.- Assessment of groundwater quality in South Karanpura Coalfield Region, Jharkhand, India using WQI and geospatial approach.- Application of wastewater in agriculture: benefits and detriments.- A GIS-based flood risk assessment and mapping using morphometric analysis in the Kayadhu river basin, Maharashtra.- Hydro-chemical characterization and geospatial analysis of groundwater for drinking and agriculture usage in Bagh river basin, Central India.- A comprehensive review on the impact of climate change on streamflow: current status and perspectives.- Soil Erosion Susceptibility in Dima River basin of Dooars Himalaya using RUSLE and Geospatial Techniques.- Hydro-Geological Investigation and Groundwater Resource Estimation.- Myths, Architecture, and Rites: The Concept of Conservation of the Tri Danu Area in Bali in the Contemporary Struggle.- Impact of Land use and Land cover in Water Resources.- An Assessment and Management of Ecotourism based on Water and LULC: A Geospatial Approach of Jodhpur,Rajasthan, India.- A Spatio-Temporal Study of Agriculture in the Chars of Brahamputra Basin, Dhubri, Assam.- GIS Based Novel Ensemble MCDM-AHP Modeling for Flash Flood Susceptibility Mapping of Luni River Basin, Rajasthan.- Geospatial Modeling for Identification of Ground Water Potential Zones in Luni River Basin, Rajasthan.- Hydrological Drought Analysis of Bearma Basin, Madhya Pradesh, INDIA.
