India, a leading developing country in the Asian continent, is worldwide famousfor its diversified and complex monsoon rainfall system, and the factors associ-ated with it. The peninsular shape in the southern half provides ...
This paper aims to re-examine the current urban water use system in the urban areas of developing country discuss a better way for resilience investigation. The study proposes that analysis of data on the available amount ...
Metals pollution pose a serious problem to environmental and human health, if not effectively removed from wastewater using different state-of-the-art treatment technologies. This study investigated the phase distribution ...

VULNERABILITY AND RESILIENCE of urban waters, under the shifting paradigm of climate change and urbanization, needs to be evaluated from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives. We evaluated the vulnerability of ...
How does lithological variation affect the landscape and its evolution is a fundamental issue in modern and post-orogenic terrains. In the absence of active tectonic uplift, spatial variation of rock resistance and rainfall ...
Impact of climate change causes many visible changes within an ecosystem and organism. In recent years, biodiversity loss is one of the challenging issues which are affected by climate change. India has a unique climate ...

Dissolved aluminium (hereafter, dAl) concentrations have been determined on 34 full vertical water column profiles, sampled along the two separate GEOTRACES-India transects (GI-01 and GI-06) to understand the biogeochemical ...
River processes in a drainage basin are strongly governed by spatio-temporal variability in stream power. Recently, various approaches have been developed to derive the spatial variability of stream power in a river basin; ...
In the Indo–Gangetic plains (IGP), the inter–basinal area between the Ganga in east and the Indus in west is currently devoid of any major drainage. A wide paleochannel belt, the Ghaggar-Hakra channel, has been mapped in ...
Over the last decays, soil and water pollution resulting from land degradation has led to strong impacts on the epoch of Anthropocene with unknown dimensions and large costs for society. In some cases, clear links have ...
Chemical composition of river water is vital to assessment of water quality for irrigation, agriculture and domestic usage. Chemical attributes of riverine water primarily governed by natural weathering of rocks have become ...
The current work reviews the state of Indian water quality under the climate change regime. Rising temperatures will lead to higher concentration of pollutants like nutrients (nitrates, phosphates etc.), persistent organic ...
The developing economies are facing water problems at a massive level. At present, coining the term water crisis is trending, either it�s United Nations or Indian Government officials have used it enormously. Whenever there ...
The present book chapter discusses the mechanism of Arsenic and Fluoride release in the groundwater and its related toxicity. The use of spatial modelling techniques involving machine learning classification algorithms can ...
With time new methods/technique developed for clean/portable as same, it is essential to authenticate them. In this chapter the discussion on what is the disadvantage of tertiary treatment including harmful disinfection ...
In this chapter, we give a brief overview on occurrence of antibiotic resistance gene in WWTP based on previous studies conducted in several countries. Then, we describe our initial effort in antibiotic resistance gene ...

The impact of increased temperature on the Third Pole, as the Himalayas is referred to, and the likely cascading impacts on the general downstream hydrology have been widely noted. However, the impact on fluvial geomorphology ...
Despite the abundant literature on metal contamination through road dust (RD) in urban/suburban and residential/highway regions, the RD of highways traversing through the Kaziranga National Park, NE India, has not been ...
