Groundwater is inarguably India's single most important natural resource. It is the foundation of millions of Indian farmers' livelihood security and the primary source of drinking water for a vast majority of Indians in rural and urban areas. The prospects of continued high rates of growth in the Indian economy will, to a great extent, depend on how judiciously we can manage groundwater in the years to come. Over the past three decades, India has emerged as by far the single largest consumer of groundwater in the world. Though groundwater has made the country self-sufficient in terms of food, we face a crisis of dwindling water tables and declining water quality. Deep drilling by tube wells, which was once part of the solution to water shortages, is now in danger of becoming partof the problem. Consequently, we urgently need to focus our efforts on the sustainable and equitable management of groundwater. Addressing that need, this book presents novel advances in and applications of RS?GIS and geostatistical techniques to the research community in a precise and straightforward manner. 410 0$aSpringer Hydrogeology,$x2364-6462 606 $aGeology 606 $aPollution 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironment 606 $aGeology 606 $aPollution 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 615 0$aGeology. 615 0$aPollution. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aEnvironment. 615 14$aGeology. 615 24$aPollution. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 676 $a553.79 702 $aAdhikary$b Partha Pratim$4edt 702 $aShit$b Pravat Kumar$4edt 702 $aSantra$b Priyabrata$4edt 702 $aBhunia$b Gouri Sankar$4edt 702 $aTiwari$b Ashwani Kumar$4edt 702 $aChaudhary$b B.
