Groundwater prospects analysis through hydrogeophysical parameters and hydrogeomorphic zonation - a case study in parts of Kewta watershed - upper Barakar basin - Bihar
The study integrates hydrogeomorphic and hydrogeophysical approach for groundwater exploration for Kewta watershed, upper Barakar basin, Bihar Posted on 19 May, 2009 01:43 PM

 In this paper from the GIS Development site present study, hydrogeomorphic zonation has been carried out through remote sensing technique.

Analysis of hydrogeophysical properties of aquifer and reserve estimation for sustainable development of groundwater in Kewta watershed, Hazaribagh, Bihar
Several sub-surface basins/ underground reservoirs, can be used for groundwater storage and retrieval which has storage capacity to irrigate 50 per cent geographical area of Kewta watershed Posted on 19 May, 2009 01:39 PM

In this study from the GIS Development site,  the hydrogeophysical parameters generated from vertical sounding, geohydrological, inferred fractures and geomorphic zones derived from remotely sensed data have been analysed in Kewta watershed of upper Barakar Basin, Hazaribagh. The study area is part of lower Hazaribagh plateau and is part of pediplain developed over Chotanagpur granite gneiss and meta- sedimentary.

Groundwater management and planning for Siwane sub-basin in Hazaribagh district, Bihar
The overall objective of the study was to provide scientific database for sustainable utilisation & development of groundwater by digital basement topography modeling Posted on 19 May, 2009 01:34 PM

This paper from the GIS Development site discusses the findings of a project titled " Natural Resource Management for Sustainable Utilisation of Water Resources in Siwane Sub-basin, Hazaribagh under NRDMS

Groundwater modeling of unconfined aquifer system of crystalline area in Lapsiya watershed, Hazaribagh- a case study in GIS development
The study attempts for groundwater modelling exercise in Lapasiya watershed, Hazaribagh in Jharkhand to understand the behaviour of unconfined aquifer system with various input parameters Posted on 19 May, 2009 11:41 AM

The outcome of the model helped in identifying suitable area for groundwater augmentation on the long term. The model also helped in optimization of rate of new wells. The model has simulated up to a level to the near real field condition.

Understanding processes of watershed development program in India: report of a study anchored by WASSAN and facilitated by ICEF
The main purpose of the study is to strengthen the participatory processes in watershed development projects and its policies Posted on 12 May, 2009 12:48 PM

This process study conducted by WASSAN with the support of ICEF is an attempt to bring focus on the processes of the watershed development projects. It is an attempt to provide feedback to the policy makers, donors and field level facilitators on the processes at the field level. It is an attempt to assess, diagnose and compare process at field level in different projects.
