Book excerpt: This volume originates from the proceedings of a multidisciplinary conference, Techno-Societal 2016 in Maharashtra, India, that brings together faculty members of various engineering colleges to solve Indian regional relevant problems under the guidance of eminent researchers from various reputed organizations. The focus is on technologies that help develop and improve society, in particular on issues such as the betterment of differently abled people, environment impact, livelihood, rural employment, agriculture, healthcare, energy, transport, sanitation, water, education. This conference aims to help innovators to share their best practices or products developed to solve specific local problems which in turn may help the other researchers to take inspiration to solve problems in their region. On the other hand, technologies proposed by expert researchers may find applications in different regions. This back and forth process for local-global interaction will help in solving local problems by global approach and help in solving global problems by improving local conditions.

This book was released on 2012-06-09 with total page 1068 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large part of the global population lives in arid lands which have low rainfall and often lack the water required for sustainable population and economic growth. This book presents a comprehensive description of the hydrogeology and hydrologic processes at work in arid lands. It describes the techniques that can be used to assess and manage the water resources of these areas with an emphasis on groundwater resources, including recent advances in hydrologic evaluation and the differences between how aquifer systems behave in arid lands versus more humid areas. Water management techniques are described and summarized to show how a more comprehensive approach to water management is required in these areas, including the need to be aware of cultural sensitivities and conditions unique to many arid regions. The integration of existing resources with the addition of new water sources, such as desalination of brackish water and seawater, along with reusing treated wastewater, will be required to meet future water supply needs. Also, changing climatic conditions will force water management systems to be more robust so that future water supply demands can be met as droughts become more intense and rainfall events become more intense. A range of water management techniques are described and discussed in order to illustrate the methods for integrating these measures within the context of arid lands conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maharashtra is an important state of India so far as its contribution to the agriculture development of the country is concerned. During the last four decades, the agricultural sector of Maharashtra has undergone lots of changes. Though agricultural performance improved during the last forty years, its progress was not sustained and showed wide fluctuations. In fact, the important characteristics of Maharashtra agriculture are the instability in crop production and significant regional variations in the performance of agriculture in the state. The recent farmer suicides in Vidarbha and Marathawada have once again highlighted regional disparity in Maharashtra. The agrarian crisis in Vidarbha has spun almost out of control. There are a number of factors which limit the growth of agriculture over the years in the state. It is, therefore, necessary to look into the factors affecting agricultural growth.

He is one of the truly enigmatic personalities on the contemporary Indian political canvas. So that the footsteps of the political career of such a great Statesman could be written on the pages of history and in order to record his historical and revolutionary work and as inspired by this unique intuition, the author has written this book based on the perspective and parameters of research at national and international forums. During the three consecutive terms as Chief Minister for eleven years, Vasantrao Naik has made Maharashtra at the forefront of India in terms of sustainable and balanced development materializing distinctiveness and strong faith in democratic values.Through the democratic decentralization, as an Epoch Maker, Vasantrao Naik's political upheaval in political tenure by empowering the roots of grassroots democratic political processes and in order to review the creation of the new Maharashtra State through various political principles, socialism and considering his political tenure of more than three decades with competent leadership and foresight in times of adversity and crisis, the author has attempted to analyze above issues of Vasantrao Naik's revolutionary work for Maharashtra's overall development. Through the Agro-Industrial and Green Revolution, Vasantrao Naik accelerated the process of social and agricultural development of Maharashtra State with his socio-political management, the ideology of an ideal ruler and prudent nationalism. As a successful Statesman, his diplomacy carved a distinct identity not only in the politics of Maharashtra but also in India. An overview of the implementation of plans and policies in each of his tenures as Chief Minister for the overall development of a prosperous Maharashtra state is chronologically included in this volume. His Vasantism: Ideology and Fundamentals, principles of humanism, realism and socialism in politics and his four main principles of political policy - broad social interest, implementation of socialist economy, democratic approach and individualistic approach have brought the reader to know how the advanced Maharashtra State emerged, has been systematically analyzed here. Due to the validity of the explanatory framework of Vasantrao Naik's constitutional and development- oriented performance, using appropriate research methodology and techniques by author under an institutional framework of theoretical information and guidelines, with the information and the appropriate conclusions, the personality of Mahanayak, Vasantrao Naik, as a pioneer of Indian politics, a knowledgeable diplomat and as an accomplished king of peasants, Banjara-tribe, the father of agro-industrial revolution and architect of modern Maharashtra, will continue to emerge with great force not only in front of the people of Maharashtra but all over the world. Hence, Vasantrao Naik will continue to enrich abundantly in ages to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study examines the global pattern and impacts of droughts through mapping several drought-related characteristics - either at a country level or at regular grid scales. It appears that arid and semi-arid areas also tend to have a higher probability of drought occurrence. It is illustrated that the African continent is lagging behind the rest of the world on many indicators related to drought-preparedness and that agricultural economies, overall, are much more vulnerable to adverse societal impacts of meteorological droughts. The study also examines the ability of various countries to satisfy their water needs during droughts using storage-related indices.

Download or read book Assessment of Climate Change over the Indian Region written by R. Krishnan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-12 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book discusses the impact of human-induced global climate change on the regional climate and monsoons of the Indian subcontinent, adjoining Indian Ocean and the Himalayas. It documents the regional climate change projections based on the climate models used in the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) and climate change modeling studies using the IITM Earth System Model (ESM) and CORDEX South Asia datasets. The IPCC assessment reports, published every 6–7 years, constitute important reference materials for major policy decisions on climate change, adaptation, and mitigation. While the IPCC assessment reports largely provide a global perspective on climate change, the focus on regional climate change aspects is considerably limited. The effects of climate change over the Indian subcontinent involve complex physical processes on different space and time scales, especially given that the mean climate of this region is generally shaped by the Indian monsoon and the unique high-elevation geographical features such as the Himalayas, the Western Ghats, the Tibetan Plateau and the adjoining Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and Bay of Bengal. This book also presents policy relevant information based on robust scientific analysis and assessments of the observed and projected future climate change over the Indian region.
