Artificial groundwater recharge and recovery of a highly saline aquifer – A paper in Current Science

This paper in Current Science indicates how aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) is an effective method of recharging reclaimed or surplus surface water into confined, or semi-confined permeable formations for later extraction as needed. A key factor in the long-term viability of aquifer storage and recovery is the extent of mineral interaction between two dissimilar water types, their recoverable fractions and consequent impact on water quality and aquifer stability.

Infiltration studies in Sher-Umar river doab in Narmada basin – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The report presents infiltration studies of the year 1996-97 for the Bargi Left Bank Canal Command area of Narsinghpur district of Madhya Pradesh. Infiltration studies are mainly addressed to a variety of applications for managing water resources. The design of methods for estimation of flood mitigation and erosion control is often based on estimates of peak discharge derived from prediction of infiltration rate. Water conservation procedures require computation of cumulative infiltration to produce estimates of runoff yield. Read More

Estimation of infiltration rates in the Suddagedda basin of East Godavari – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The report on Suddagedda basin, a representative basin of the east flowing rivers of medium sized basins in the east coast of India, presents the outcomes of the infiltration tests carried out using Double Ring Infiltrometer. The basin soil is mainly grouped into three types viz clay loams to clay, sandy loams and forest & loamy skeletal. A total of twenty-eight infiltration tests have been conducted using double ring infiltrometers.Read More

Soil classification of Dudhnai representative basin (Assam and Meghalaya) - A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The study attempts to do field and laboratory determination of soil classification properties in the Dudhnai river basin of Assam and Meghalaya. Point infiltration tests using double ring infiltrometer were conducted at various locations (forty-four sites) in respect of different land use conditions. Soil samples were collected from these infiltration testing sites.

The saturated hydraulic conductivity was determined in the field using Guelph Permeameter for the selected sites. The undisturbed soil samples and disturbed soil samples (50 cm below the ground) were collected and subjected to elaborate laboratory tests. Read More
