In this book “Water Harvesting and Groundwater Recharge, research method manual”, the emphasis is on the collection of data and analysis of the hydrological factors involved and promotes hydrological design on sound principles and understanding of the the science for conservation and utilization of water resources. The methodology adopted in this book can be used for the reference to study the effect of surface water harvesting on ground water potential and on the income of different crops. A list of reference is included at the end for supplementary reading. The book is profusely illustrated with sketches and is not bulky. The text has been so brought to give confidence and competence for the reader to refer for the research work in the subject or enable him to take up independent field work as a hydrologist of a river basin or sub-basin. Under graduate UG and Post Graduate PG students research scholars and professionals in the fields of agricultural engineering, geology, agriculture etc, will find this book useful.
