Rainwater harvesting is a process of saving rainwater through the roof and open floor along the proper slope. Rajasthan is facing crises of water due to less rainfall every year. It is required to develop systems for collecting the rainwater from existing structures for fulfills water demand throughout the year. In this project, a rainwater harvesting system has been made for Techno India NJR campus through visual inspection, total station, theodolite, and GIS survey. Visual inspection has been done. Rainwater can be harvested through roofs of the academic block, workshop, hostel building, and I3 lab of the college. Some more area which is occupied by tiles and road was also considered for rainwater harvesting. The total built-up area for collecting rainwater is 9138.824 m2. Average rainfall in Udaipur is 689 mm/year and 6296.138 m3 volume of water can be saving through recharge in bore well. Two points have been selected based on the survey of the campus.
雨水收集是一个通过屋顶和沿适当斜坡的开放地板储存雨水的过程。由于每年降雨量减少，拉贾斯坦邦正面临水危机。需要开发从现有结构中收集雨水的系统，以满足全年的用水需求。在这个项目中，通过目测、全站仪、经纬仪和GIS测量，为Techno India NJR校园制作了一个雨水收集系统。目视检查已经完成。雨水可以通过学院的学术大楼、车间、宿舍大楼和I3实验室的屋顶收集。一些被瓦片和道路占用的区域也被考虑用于雨水收集。雨水收集建筑总面积为9138.824 m2。乌代普尔平均降雨量为689毫米/年，通过井内回灌可节约水量6296.138立方米。根据对校园的调查，选择了两点。

Landuse refers to the use of land by human beings while the land cover refers to the natural cover on land. Landuse and land cover mapping is important for better developmental planning purpose. In the present time remote sensing satellite data, geographical information system (GIS) and global positioning system (GPS) are widely used in mapping of land use and land cover. In the present study landuse and land cover change analysis of southeastern part of Panchkula city have been done using Google Earth satellite data of 2002 and 2018. Satellite data downloaded from Google Earth and geo-referenced in ArcGIS 10.4 software. Landuse and landcover classes had been interpreted and field visit was done at selected location to check the interpreted data. Final maps were prepared and area of landuse and land cover classes were calculated. The study shows that during the year 2002 to 2018 built-up land area increased 95.01Hect, agriculture land area increased 1.24Hect., river course area decreased 20.35 Hect., vacant land area decreased 119.43Hect., park area increased 14.64 Hect., open scrub area decreased 7.82 Hect., road area increased 7.21 Hect.,water body area increased 0.02 Hect. and forest area increased 30.48 Hect. The study can be used for monitoring land use and land cover for planning purpose in the study area.

Water is prime requirement for living beings to live on the planet earth. In the modern developmental activities, agricultural practices, industrial purposes and need of drinking water for increasing population resources of fresh water are depleting fast and creating crisis of water availability per capita. Haryana is an agricultural dominant state with requirement of water whole year for irrigation purpose. Besides agriculture demand water is also used in industrial purpose as well as increasing drinking water requirement for increasing population in the state. In the present study groundwater quality in Pehowa block which covers 548 sq. km. area in Kurukshetra district of Haryana state, India have been studied for drinking purpose. Nine groundwater samples were collected from different parts of the block in double capped plastic bottles. Groundwater samples were analyzed using field water testing kit prepared by Tamil nadu Water Supply and Drainage Board, Chennai for twelve chemical parameters-pH, alkalinity, hardness, chloride, total dissolved solids, fluoride, iron, nitrite, nitrate, ammonia, phosphate and residual chlorine. Results of chemical analysis of groundwater samples shows that range of pH 7- 8, alkalinity 230-420 mg/l, hardness 100-280 mg/l, chloride 30-100 mg/l, total dissolved solids (TDS) 432-924 mg/l, fluoride 0.5 - 1.5 mg/l, iron nil in all groundwater samples, ammonia nil - 2 mg/l, nitrite 0.2- 0.5 mg/l, nitrate 45-75 mg/l, phosphate nil in all groundwater samples, and residual chlorine nil to 0.5 mg/l. The study shows that groundwater is non-potable at Bherian (nitrate 75 mg/l), Gumthala (nitrate 75 mg/l, ammonia 2 mg/l), Thana (nitrate 75 mg/l), Ramgarh (nitrate 75 mg/l), Mohanpur (nitrate 75 mg/l), Sarsa (nitrate 75mg/l), Tikri (ammonia 1 mg/l, residual chlorine 0.5 mg/l). Groundwater is potable in one groundwater sample taken at Bodha with respect of all the twelve chemical parameters of drinking water. The study is highly useful for monitoring groundwater quality for drinking purpose in the study area.

Bihar is facing a flood problem every year. This paper includes all the major factors which increase flood level in Bihar such as heavy rainfall, a large number of rivers, topography of the area, sand mining, and silt accumulation. There are some factors which are directly responsible and others are indirectly responsible for flood hazard. Heavy rainfall and a large number of rivers are directly responsible factors. The capacity of rivers and reservoirs is reduced due to silt accumulation and deforestation upstream in Nepal is the reason behind silt accumulation in rivers and reservoirs through heavy rainfall. Watershed management is not very successful because most of the plain area. The hydrology of Bihar is also disturbed due to excess sand mining. The built-up area of the state is increasing and this is resulting in heavy surface runoff, because there is no open area to hold the water. The increased flow also washes the fertile soil of the agricultural area of Bihar

Water is important for survival of living beings and non-living developmental activities. In the present developmental scenario requirement of water is increasing very fast. In arid to semi-arid regions groundwater is very important for fulfilling the need of people. Badhra block is falling in Charkhi Dadri district of Haryana state, India. The climate of the block is semi-arid. Groundwater is the main source for drinking and irrigation purpose. In the study area ten groundwater samples were collected in the month of January, 2019. Groundwater samples were analyzed using field water testing kit prepared by Tamilnadu Water Supply and Drainage Board, Chennai for twelve chemical parameters-pH, alkalinity, hardness, chloride, total dissolved solids, fluoride, iron, nitrite, nitrate, ammonia, phosphate and residual chlorine. In the groundwater samples pH varies from 7 to 7.5, alkalinity 250-450 mg/l,hardness 70 - 580 mg/l,chloride 60-600 mg/l, total dissolved solids (TDS) 564-1704 mg/l, fluoride 0.5-3 mg/l, iron nil in all groundwater samples, ammonia nil to 1 mg/l, nitrite 0.2- 0.5 mg/l, nitrate 45-75mg/l, phosphate nil to 0.5 mg/l, residual chlorine nil in all ten groundwater samples.

Many perceptions exist regarding climate change. These perceptions determine the action that is given to this global challenge. To come to the right decisions and action, it is important that the quality of those perceptions is as high as possible, because wrong or inadequate decisions and action could have grave consequences for the people on planet Earth. A systems-thinking perspective can help in gaining the required quality of perception to effectively and efficiently address this global challenge.

In arid and semi-arid regions of the world, non-conventional waters may represent an important complementary irrigation source. To investigate potential soil contaminations risks, repeated measurement experiments and rigorous methodological approaches may be adopted to assess variations of contaminant concentrations in the soil, eliminating possible confounding effects due to correlations over time.

To investigate potential soil contaminations risks, repeated measurement experiments and rigorous methodological approaches may be adopted to assess variations of contaminant concentrations in the soil, eliminating possible confounding effects due to correlations over time.","PeriodicalId":14445,"journal":{"name":"International Journal on Environmental Sciences","volume":"14 1","pages":"01-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75237701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
