Abstract

In the recent past, with the availability of enormous datasets and advanced computational skills, hydrological science is trending towards integration of multi-dimensional studies for the comprehension of complete hydrological cycle. Numerous studies have been carried out in varied hydrological, climatic and geological settings of India during the last decade. These studies cover groundwater exploration and management; surface water-groundwater interactions; geogenic and anthropogenic contaminations; water balances;predictive modelling and others. This article provides a glimpse of these studies. Some reports and studies might not have been described here due to their unavailability in the public domain and due to space limitation.
