Towards a more effective operational response - arsenic contamination of groundwater in south and east asian countries: a policy report by World Bank
The policy report states that arsenic mitigation needs to be integrated with broader water supply sector policies and approaches rather than treating it as an isolated issue Posted on 20 May, 2009 10:16 AM

This policy report on arsenic contamination of groundwater resources by the World Bank presents the findings of a study undertaken by the World Bank in 2005, t

Arsenic levels in Delhi's groundwater studied using hydride generator accessory coupled with atomic absorption spectrophotometer
The paper concludes that arsenic contamination in Delhi soils could be the result of dumping chemical rich garbage into open landfills Posted on 19 May, 2009 04:13 PM

This is a paper from the Indian Journal of Clinical Biochemistry. In this paper hydride generator accessory coupled with atomic absorption spectrophotometer was used to study the arsenic levels in the groundwaters of Delhi. The arsenic levels in the groundwater samples range from 0.0170 to 0.100 ppm.

Artificial groundwater recharge through tube wells - a case study from north-east Haryana
In this study, two-recharge tube wells were installed in the bed of old Sirsa branch canal, Haryana, to recharge the depleting groundwater artificially Posted on 19 May, 2009 03:03 PM

This paper published in the journal Agricultural Engineering describes the findings of a feasibility study on groundwater recharge, which was undertaken through two recharge tube wells constructed in the bed of old Sirsa branch canal in North East Haryana.

Integrated groundwater resources mapping in Gurgaon district, Haryana
The paper describes preparation of hydrogeomorphological map of Gurgaon district, Haryana, using false colour composites from Indian remote sensing satellite (IRS-1C) Posted on 19 May, 2009 01:47 PM

This paper from the GIS Development site mainly deals with the preparation of integrated ground water resource (IGWR) map indicating ground water prospects, quality and depth.

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

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.
