Rainfall Versus Water Balance Components Using R Software: A Case Study on a Micro-watershed in the Mid-lands of Kerala

A. P. Bowlekar, K. K. Sathian & Vaisakh Venu · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2023

Quantitative information on an area’s water balance components is essential to plan water management activities. In most cases, these water balance components, viz. rainfall, runoff, soil moisture, groundwater storage, and evapotranspiration, will be missing, especially in the de...

Comparison of Open Source DEM’s for Morphometric Analysis of Micro Watersheds: A Case Study from the Midlands of Kerala

Md. Majeed Pasha & K. K. Sathian · International Journal of Plant & Soil Science · 2021

Morphometric analysis with the help of remote sensing and GIS is now widely used to prioritise micro watersheds for planning interventions for soil and water conservation. DEM is the main digital data used to perform the morphometric analysis. There are different types of DEMs av...
