The book compiles data on both the small and large river systems of India, the large rivers include Jhelum, Ghaghara, Narmada, Son, Krishna and Godavari; and the small scale, rain-fed and groundwater-fed rivers such as Gomti have been studied. The chapters comprehensively provide assessments of geomorphological aspects, river sediment supply, clean water availability for human population, ground water recharge, flood management and irrigation. The information presented in this book will appeal to students, teachers, researchers and planners engaged in river development, management and conservation. 606 $aWater 606 $aHydrology 606 $aEcology 606 $aGeomorphology 606 $aWater 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 606 $aGeomorphology 615 0$aWater. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aGeomorphology. 615 14$aWater. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 615 24$aGeomorphology. 676 $a333.916216 702 $aKanhaiya$b Shyam 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910853992203321 996 $aRivers of India$94343405 997 $aUNINA
