Closing of the Krishna Basin: irrigation, streamflow depletion and macroscale hydrology
Discharge from the Krishna River into the ocean decreased by 75 percent from 1960-2005, and was zero during a recent multi-year drought. This paper describes the physical geography and hydrology of the Krishna Basin, including runoff production and a basic water account based on hydronomic zones. Mo...
