Vulnerability Analysis of Water Resources of Peri-urban Watersheds in face of Climatic Abnormalities : Call for Paper




You are invited to submit a paper for possible inclusion in the forthcoming monograph entitled:

Vulnerability Analysis of Water Resources of Peri-urban Watersheds in face of Climatic Abnormalities

Abstract:

The uncontrolled utilization of water resources and burgeoning population and their demand for luxury has induced abnormal warming of the global climate. As a result, the regular pattern of climate has been compromised which has multifaceted direct and passive impacts on the water resources of the river basins. Although there is a noticeable number of studies which has tried to highlight the vulnerabilities of the watersheds towards this abnormal climatic pattern but impact analysis of climatic ambiguities on the water resources of peri-urban watersheds has been rarely attempted. The peri-urban watersheds can be segregated as unique watersheds that flow through a peri-urban landscape. Such basins do not face the urbanization impacts which are encountered by the urban watersheds, but these watersheds also do not have the healthiness of rural watersheds either. That is why policymakers and planners of the peri-urban watersheds are often confused with the optimal utilization of the water resources of the basins. In this monograph, we want to highlight and showcase those studies which had depicted the solution to this problem more efficiently than the existing approaches....

Clean Hydro Surge: India’s New Small Hydro Policy and Top Water Innovations This Week

This post reports on the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s launch of a new Small Hydro Policy, designed to boost clean energy generation in North East India by tapping into the region's vast hydro potential. It highlights major hydro projects—such as the Upper Karnali initiative, accelerated hydropower development in Himachal Pradesh, and international advancements like Japan's first tidal grid connection and U.S. wave energy breakthroughs. The roundup also reviews global climate resilience initiatives, urgent water pollution challenges (from mercury and microplastics to algal blooms), and digital innovations in water informatics and AI, all shaping the future of water resources management and sustainable engineering Click here to know more.

What's New in Hydroinformatics Engineering ?

1 “Flood peaks in Mid-Atlantic U.S. watersheds show a V-shaped response to urbanization: they decrease at low urban development (below 10% PDAW), then rise sharply as urbanization increases further due to complex climate-landscape interactions. A neural network model confirmed this nonlinear behavior, underscoring the need to consider more than just urban area when predicting flood risk.”…..Hua et.al.(2025).

ANN’s superior accuracy highlights its suitability for operational streamflow forecasts in this region.ANN models using lagged climate indices significantly outperformed ARIMA models for forecasting streamflow at Victoria’s stations, especially at Acheron where the ANN achieved Pearson R = 0.90,...

Five most innovative and sustainable water bottles

Cover Feature: Five most innovative water bottles selected by ODM V2 Five most innovative water bottles Water bottles are now becoming smart. Recently launched water bottles have the capability to track your hydration level and can remind you to drink water when the hydration level is below a predefined level. Some water bottles can either increase or decrease the temperature of the water in the container. Some alternatives come with blue tooth speaker/stirrer/fuser/wifi etc electronic devices. Some variation of smart water bottles has the ability to self-purify when needed. Here in this feature, we try to find the most innovative smart water bottles that are available on the eCommerce sites with the help of ODM. Now let us continue with the regular features : News about Sustainability Audi e-tron's used batteries in e-rickshaws by Nunam A new study finds inactive yeast could be effective as an inexpensive, abundant, and simple material for removing lead contamination from drinking...
