Geomorphology and Hydrogeology

The key purpose of this book is to present the detail geomorphological and hydrogeological applications and techniques through the remote sensing and GIS. A short glance is presented on the remote sensing & GIS based land use & land cover classification, spectral vegetation index, geological mapping, weathering & mass-wasting, and hydro-meteorology of Dhasan River Basin, India. The concept on Indian watershed codification system is also presented in the book. The comprehensive morphometric analysis, hydro-geomorphological analysis & mapping, groundwater exploration, occurrence and movement of groundwater, assessment of aquifers by pumping test, development and management of ground water, and assessment of ground water are carried out based on GIS and satellite remote sensing techniques. The book is useful for the instructors, research scholars and students of geology / geography / earth science / hydrology for the detail study in the field of hydro - geomorphology.
