An approach to restore the depleting river flow

Published on by

What is the reason for river flow depletion and how can this be restored ? A hydro-geological approach for restoration of the depleting flow in rivers. Hydro-geological approach for rejuvenation of rivers Abstract: This is an approach paper briefly describing the hydro-geological approach to rejuvenation of rivers. It lists-out main factors responsible for decline of water table in the catchments of a river system vis-à-vis attempts to explain the probable causes responsible for river flow depletion in non-monsoon months. The approach paper attempts to present a conceptual framework and studies for restoration of non-monsoon flow through non-monsoon ground water recharge – a hydro-geological approach for restoration of depleting flows. It also recommends sustainable river water use prioritization / allocations. A very nice article form India portal http://www.indiawaterportal.org/news/approach-restore-depleting-river-flow
