Jaisamand lake Basin Krishna Godavari Basin India
Jaisamand Basin Situated in Rajasthan Lake basin NIH and WFI jointly implement the project Groundwater is extensively utilized Rainfall is less than 100 mm/year Data collection has been completed Basin is part of hydis and provides data (discontinued of late) Jaisamand Basin
Jaisamand Lake Basin Research Data collection Modeling Assessment Various aridity indices have been calculated Hydrological, tracer based analyais and geomorphic analysis have been completed Decision support system is being developed. Dissemination of output desires to be improved Jaisamand Lake Basin
