Water scarcity is a critical challenge in arid regions worldwide, with Oman facing an annual rainfall of just 61mm across a total land area of 309,500 km², yielding an estimated 18.9 billion cubic meters (BCM) of rainwater annually. However, due to excessive evaporation and inadequate infiltration, most of this water is lost. This paper explores th...

“Hey Surat – Let the Tapi Flow” is a science-based pocketbook offering a comprehensive environmental and hydrological vision for the sustainable transformation of Surat district, Gujarat. The book critically examines Surat’s paradox of high rainfall yet persistent water scarcity, emphasizing the underutilization of rainwater and overreliance on the...

This article is a brief explanation of Global Rainwater Management Program (GRMP), a Solution for World Water Security, Climate Resilience and sustainability.

Our consistent efforts in Rainwater Management and Water Conservation to address climate change and World Water Crisis has earned us some recognitions. We have achieved yearly 270 billions liters of Rainwater conservation till the end of 2024. Our Target is to reach 4.7 Trillion by 2030.

This chapter presents data-based situation in India's delta regions-comprising the Ganges-Brahmaputra, Mahanadi, Krishna-Godavari, and Kaveri deltas, which are essential for the country's agricultural and economic activities but are critically underserved in terms of water supply and sanitation. Despite receiving substantial annual rainfall (rangin...

Surat District faces critical groundwater challenges, including high salinity, nitrate contamination, and seasonal depletion. Using the National Aquifer Mapping and Management (NAQUIM) Report as a baseline, this study projects future degradation of aquifers over the next 20 years if no intervention is implemented. The Global Rainwater Management Pr...

"NAQUIM Surat Vs GRMP" which details groundwater management strategies for Surat District. The paper thoroughly compares current aquifer conditions with projections involving the implementation of GRMP techniques. It discusses various contamination levels, outlines GRMP solutions (e.g., artificial wetlands, contour trenches, rooftop rainwater harve...

This paper examines the pivotal role of artificial intelligence (AI) in addressing groundwater management challenges and achieving climate resilience. By analyzing AI's application in data gathering, predictive modeling, and policy enforcement, this research highlights how AI supports the sustainable use of groundwater, reinforces natural ecosystem...

Our Action Plan of NRWM can be executed at micro levels like Villages, blocks and District levels. By preparing such pockets, We can Conserve more rainwater which is made CONTAMINATION FREE for usages and Groundwater Recharge. Our actions are now implemented by Surat District Administration. Attached PPT is the action plan adopted.

These experiments are a part of OUR MAIN RESEARCH "NATIONWISE RAIN WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS". Experiment Bottom line: SHOOTING MULTIPLE TARGETS with SINGLE ARROW". DESCRIPTION: After successful installation of our main Programs in Rural and Urban areas, We could identify that with Few modifications & proper planning some of devices and struct...

This Presentation is about Technical & commercial aspects with comparison of ORGANIC with chemical farming. THIS PRESENTATION ALSO IS A KEY TO HELP ADDRESS SALT AFFECTED SOIL.

If there is 1 inch of RAINFALL in 1 SquareMeter PLANNED CATCHMENT area, We get around 25 Liters of WATER which can be easily Stored, Recharged. Let's CALCULATE the potential CATCHMENT AREA of the PLANET and calculate the "AVAILABILITY of WATER" after each inch of RAINFALL in CATCHMENT. The Area of land: 148326000 km2 on Planet Earth. IF We can...
