Evolution, Climate Change and Oriental Monsoon
The evolution of Oriental Monsoon is a very complex phenomenon. Still more complex is the issue of climate change. It involves a whole range of climatic conditions which include solar radiation, temperature, pressure, wind, cloud and precipitation in a given period compared to the preceding periods and has a considerable impact on settled ecosystems.
Plants that absorb too much
Plants have varying capacity to absorb water for sustenance. While a large tree may absorb a huge amount, others may store water for use during scarcity. A judiciously planned layout that accredits the physiological background of a plant is a must before using it for ground water reclamation.
Managed Aquifer Recharge
MAR is a term that has been suggested for a process through which recycled water is stored in an aquifer under controlled conditions. As this water enters the sub soil and aquifer it is subjected to several organic processes which remove pathogens and harmful chemicals from the water, reducing contaminants which may adversely affect health and environment.
