We analyze tunnel wells ( surangams), traditional water harvesting systems, which have been innovated and nurtured by farmers in the Enmakaje panchayat in the state of Kerala in South India for decades. We show how the genesis and design of the indigenous knowledge-based water harvesting system...
Spatial prediction of soil erosion risk by remote sensing, GIS and RUSLE approach: a case study of Siruvani river watershed in Attapady valley, Kerala, India Siruvani watershed with a surface area of 205.54 km2 (20,554 hectare), forming a part of the Western Ghats in Attapady valley, Ke...
There is no doubt that land cover and climate changes have consequences on landslide activity, but it is still an open issue to assess and quantify their impacts. Wanzhou County in southwest China was selected as the test area to study rainfall-induced shallow landslide susceptibility under the ...
Impact of River Bank Erosion on Human Life : A Case Study in Shantipur Block, Nadia District, West Bengal River bank erosion has emerged to be one of the most dreadful environmental problems in India. The rivers Ganges, Son, Yamuna, the Brahmaputra, Chambal and Mahi, all are tough competito...
This study was established to explore the soil quality of the Nilgiri Hill Region (NHR) in the Western Ghats global biodiversity hotspot (India’s first biosphere reserve) under six major ecosystems {cropland (CL), deciduous forest (DF), evergreen forest (EF), forest plantation (FP), scrubla...
On the other hand, documentation of the landraces in the on-farm conservation context provides insights into food-systems and sustainability. The present study was conducted in the context of the Central Western Ghats region of Karnataka state of India (i) to document the on-farm landrace ...
The Urni landslide, situated on the right bank of the Satluj River, Himachal Pradesh (India) is taken as the case study. The Urni landslide has evolved into a complex landslide in the last two decade (2000-2016) and has dammed the Satluj River partially since year 2013, damaging ~200 ...
The study infers that if the excess rain water is stored in the catchment and is conveyed through small channels to the field as per the agricultural requirements in different seasons of the year, it will increase agricultural production in the area, reduce soil loss and groundwater recharge. ...
