Giving women a voice in water user bodies does not necessarily empower them

We attempt to synthesize available quantitative, precisely
dated and high-resolution palaeorecords of the South Asian summer monsoon from different natural archives, highlighting their similarities and differences.

The rivers draining the Gangetic plains exhibit remarkable geomorphic diversity, and this has consequently characterized the rivers to be dominantly aggradational in the Eastern Gangetic Plains (EGP) and degradational in the Western Gangetic Plains. We suggest that steam power and sediment supply are the two main fluvial parameters which govern the aggradation or degradation in river systems which, in turn, are controlled by inherent catchment parameters such as rainfall and tectonics. The

Measurement of unsaturated hydraulic conductivity in vadose zone is a very difficult task. It is estimated using mathematical or empirical relations. The unsaturated hydraulilc conductivity with respect to water content or suction is estimated using standard empirical relations. These empirical relations use saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) as one of the parameters.

Feasibility of harvesting roof top water in an engineering college campus is studied using a stochastically generated daily rainfall series. It has been shown that even though sufficient amount of water is available, possibility of harvesting rainwater is limited because of limitations in the storage that can be provided.

Water is important for economic development, and many parts of India already face issues of water scarcity. This study predicts that intensity of rainfall will increase under climate change. Issues such as water scarcity may also become more prevalent.
