Five Most Promissing Topics of Research in Hydrology





Download the Tutorial for the Clickable Version


Hydrology is a very old subject still; a lot of scopes are left in this subject which is hitherto unearthed. Below is the list of the five most promising topics of research that have steadily gained their presence in hydrology-related publications, in the last five years.

List of Most Promising Topics

◼ Building-induced rainfall redistribution(BIRR) 
◼ Rainfall nowcasting 
◼ Applications of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) in Hydrology 
◼ Post-fire hydrology in forest 
◼ Baseflow Signature Predictions
 
Building-induced rainfall redistribution(BIRR) 
Microtopography due to the building roofs and rainfall redistribution due to the same has significant effect on urban hydrology and as a result, it also influences the accuracy of flood forecasting models.

Rainfall nowcast 
Very Short Term ( 2 or less than 2-hour lead time) Rainfall forecasts (nowcasts) are useful in operational flood forecasting and the model which predict such storm is known as Rainfall Nowcasting models. Due to the high amount of variability development of accurate nowcast models are a challenging task.

Seven Most Tenable Application of Artificial Intelligence on Water Resource Management Problems

AI or Artificial Intelligence is a pioneering technique that has enabled the creation of intelligent machines. or smart machines which have the power to self adapt based on the situation presented to them. It requires situations whose response is known and based on this training data set it learns the problems which it has to solve when it is ready. Due to the alarming success with AI in robotics, electronics, etc fields the same technique is now used to solve the problems of water resource management. This ppt shows the seven most notable use of AI in water resources-based problems where satisfactory improvement has encouraged the further application of the technique.

Eight most common impurities observed in water supplied to domestic households

The water supplied to domestic households has many types of contaminants which have the potential to create health irregularities in the consumer family. Among these contaminants, eight most common impurities were identified, and the type of filter which can remove or reduce them was delineated in the figure. Before procuring a water filter remember to see this chart. It will help to understand the impurities that the selected water filter can remove. Any water filters available in the market are generally made of one or more of these filters. To decide wisely use the concepts of MCDM to select your filters. Compare the filters available in the market with respect to Cost, Contaminant Removal Efficiency, Maintenance requirement, and type of filters used and rate each filter based on these factors with the help of AHP or ANP techniques. The result will be the filter that will be most efficient for your use. You can also use the ODM tool to come to a decision regarding the procurement o

Five Most Innovative Rain Water Harvesting Projects

Rainwater harvesting is known to be one of the most prominent solutions to the impending vulnerability of many watersheds all over the world due to climate change impacts. The rejuvenation of the watersheds with the help of innovative rainwater harvesting can prevent further deterioration of the basins. Below are the five most intelligent water harvesting methods adopted by the stakeholders to restore their watersheds which ensured their sustainability. Mega muddy rainwater harvesting System/project "Harvested water is used for fish farming, banana plantation, Sericulture, Floriculture and for other purposes." Story of Dhun "the first step for his dream project was to bring water to this dry land and using traditional water harvesting practices the land today has more than 8 waterbodies in it..." Rain Water Harvesting in Kenya, Ethiopia, and Uganda "There is hardly a place in the world where it never rains. Rainwater belongs to everyone. And the methods to coll
