Water is the most fundamental component of any natural resource, and the crisis of fresh water has posed a formidable challenge worldwide. Among the sources of drinking water rivers play an important role, and in the peninsular river system in India, the River Brahmani plays a pivotal role.

Daily rainfall-runoff modeling of Brahmani river at Rengali reservoir, Orissa – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology
The report presents a hydrologic simulation model, HYSIM for modelling the daily flows of the Brahmani river at Rengali reservoir in Orissa. Posted on 24 Jul, 2010 05:50 PM

The report presents a hydrologic simulation model, HYSIM for modeling the daily flows of the Brahmani river at Rengali reservoir in Orissa. Considering the large catchment area of 25,250 sqkm at Rengali reservoir, for modeling purposes the basin has been divided into two sub-basins viz, Upper Sub-basin and Lower Sub-basin. The Upper Sub-basin having a catchment area of 16,900 sqkm up to Bolani gauging site is treated as a nominal sub-basin since the daily flows from this sub-basin as recorded at Bolani gauging site are available.
