Anthropogenic Influence on River Water Quality
Anthropogenic factors such as climate change, land use land cover change and industrial and population growth can influence river water quality. Climate change affects water quality due to changes in stream temperature and ... -
Design and Development of Biomimetic Sensor Technologies for the Identification of Emerging Contaminants
Sensors play a crucial role in addressing the need for the detection of antibiotics as emerging contaminants in water. The widespread use of pharmaceuticals/antibiotics in various sectors, including healthcare and ... -
An Integrated Assessment of Carbon and Water Use Efficiencies over India using Remote Sensing
Carbon use efficiency (CUE) and water use efficiency (WUE) are essential characteristics of ecosystem functioning to understand the strength of carbon allocated by the vegetation as biomass from the sequestered atmospheric ... -
An Investigation of the Characteristics of Monsoon Low Pressure Systems in the Present Climate and their Sensitivity to Topography and Climate Change
Monsoon Low-Pressure Systems (LPS) are synoptic-scale tropical disturbances that periodically form over the Indian subcontinent during the summer monsoon season (June-September). Apart from being a lifeline to agriculture, ... -
Optimization of Wastewater Treatment Process in a Bioreactor Through Hydrodynamic-biokinetic Modeling and Experimental Studies
Membrane bioreactor has emerged as one of the leading technologies for treating municipal and industrial wastewater due to its efficiency in producing high-quality effluents. One of the significant challenges in bioreactors ... -
Stable Isotope and Geochemical Approaches for Hydrological Characterization and Estimation of Seasonal Groundwater Inputs in the Humid to Semi-Arid Reach of the Kabini River, South India
In tropical catchments, like the Kabini region of South India, understanding the intricate contributions of baseflow is essential for sustainable water management and ecosystem preservation. Baseflow, which is predominantly ...
