A partial list of the papers is given below:
Water Quality: The following attempts monitoring, identification pollution in the Satara-Sangli stretch (stretch-I) of the Krishna basin in Maharashtra with the help of Geographic Information System (GIS). The stretch-I, also known as the country's sugar-belt, has been identified by CPCB and MPCB (Maharashtra Pollution Control Board) for the restoration of water quality under the National River Action Plan (NRAP).

GIS Based Correlation between Groundwater Quality Parameters and Geological Units by S. D. Dhiman and A. K. Keshari
The increasing amount of multiple data sets being made available from various sources has created a need for efficient capture, storage, management, retrieval and analysis of geoenvironmental data to address various groundwater pollution problems of varying nature, dimension and complexity, cropping at local, regional and basin scale worldwide. Geographic Information System (GIS) has emerged as an effective tool for relating and integrating vast volumes of different data types obtained from different sources and compiled on different scales. In the following paper, a methodology is presented that utilises GIS to quantify the spatial geologic data and statistical analysis to determine the relation between groundwater quality parameters and geological units. The methodology is illustrated through an application to a study area located in the Western Indian Aquifer (WIA) system.
