Climate change and watershed
Understanding the negative impacts of climate change on water resource and also evaluation of various adaptation measures considering the technical and social aspects for Indian condition.
Objectives
To assess the regional climate (long-term) for the whole northeast region.
To setup hydrological model SWAT to quantify hydrological fluxes for the study area.
To develop a hydro-climatological model for climate change impact analysis using SWAT and future climate scenarios.
To develop future LULC scenarios and assessment of their impacts on water resources.
Importance
• For achieving sustainable crop production in order to meet the food grain demand of growing population, along with freshwater resource management.
• For better planning framework on river basin management, with the real world problems and utmost accuracy.
