Water, climate change and adaptation: Focus on the Ganges river basin - A working paper by Challenge Program on Water and Food

This working paper by the Challenge Program for Water and Food explores the intersection between water management, climate change, and adaptation in the Ganges River system, a basin vital to the security, economy, and environment of South Asia. 

Recognizing that an understanding of both the science and the policy of water management, climate change, and adaptation is rapidly evolving, it is not the intention of the paper to encompass all the issues related to these broad fields, but rather to provide a starting framework from which to further develop research questions and priorities for work in water and adaptation.Read More

Rainfall-runoff modeling for water availability in Ken river basin using SCS-CN model and remote sensing approach - A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The report is the first of a two-part study on water availability for the Ken river system and attempts to evaluate the direct surface runoff in the smaller basins, where gauging sites are not available. In this study on water availability in Ken river basin, rainfall-runoff modeling in the Sonar, Bearma and Bebas river basins, which are the sub-basins of the Ken river system, have been carried out using the Soil Conservation Services Curve Number (SCS-CN) model.

This is a widely used hydrological model for calculating the runoff using rainfall and Curve Number (CN). The SCS-CN is a quantitative descriptor of the land use, land cover and soil complex characteristics of a watershed. The CN is an index that represents the watershed runoff potential.Read More
