"Pollution of groundwater in hill towns is one of the major problems which needs urgent attention of planners and local people. This book, based on a field study, brings together several aspects related to water and wastewater management in urban catchment with the main emphasis on qualitative assessment. Chapters two to four of the book cover the historical, physical and demographical details. The climatology, spring water chemistry, impact of sewage, a possible environmental management plan, cost analysis and general guidelines for water management are the other aspects presented in the book. "It is hoped that this book would serve as a guideline to policy makers, researchers and other interest groups working for ecologically sound water management in hill towns." (jacket).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book is about the Himalayan ranges as a source of fresh water supply and a perennial store house of ice, snow and permafrost as well as a vast repository of rich biodiversity, in the light of climate change. Special attention is given to the dynamics of snow and glaciers in the northwestern Himalayas, assessment of climate change patterns, and the consequences of changes and flow regime in order to understand the behaviour of climate change in the northwestern Himalayas. The outcome of melting glaciers are pro-glacial lakes. Their increasing size and potential danger of outbursts requires systematic study, particularly where there is the risk of impact on life and property. Furthermore, the changing trend of the hydrological cycle on a regional or local scale is another area of research which calls for the attention of geoscientists. To date there is a scarcity of reliable data meaning that a concerted effort is still required by all parties.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This edited book summarizes numerous research studies on remote sensing and GIS of natural resource management for the Himalaya region done by Indian Institutions and Universities over the last decade. It gives an overview ofhydrometeorological studies on Himalayan water resources and addresses concerns in the development of water resources in this region, which is dealing with an increased pressure in population, industrialization and economic development.While the source of some of the major rivers of India are found in the Himalayas, the glaciers and water bodies in the region are continuously shrinking leading to a depletion of water and deterioration of water quality. This is affecting a population of up to 2.5 billion people.The ecosystems have been under threat due to deforestation, loss of biodiversity, expansion of agriculture and settlement, overexploitation of natural resources, habitat loss and fragmentation, poaching, mining, construction of roads and large dams, and unplanned tourism. Spaceborne remote sensing with its ability to provide synoptic and repetitive coverage has emerged as a powerful tool for assessment and monitoring of the Himalayan resources and phenomena.This work serves as a resource to students, researchers, scientists, professionals, and policy makers both in India and on a global level.
