Greening the Future: Why Landscape Restoration Matters Now More Than Ever by Anantha, K.H., Singh, Ramesh, Garg, Kaushal K, Venkataradha, A., Shukla, Ashok, Uttam, R.K.

“…Bundelkhand reflects these global stressors: erratic monsoons, hard-rock aquifers, and decades of soil degradation have pushed communities close to collapse. …”

Strengthening groundwater governance in Pakistan by Rana, Abdul Wajid, Gill, Sitara, Meinzen-Dick, Ruth S., ElDidi, Hagar

“…To understand the perspectives of groundwater users, a qualitative study was conducted in the alluvial groundwater systems of Punjab as well as the hard rock systems of Balochistan. Interviews with key informants at federal, provincial, and district level were also conducted to capture insights from additional decisionmakers affecting groundwater management and governance. …”

An integrated approach to assess the dynamics of a peri-urban watershed influenced by wastewater irrigation by Jampani, Mahesh, Amerasinghe, Priyanie H., Pavelic, Paul

“…The remainder was groundwater from shallow hard-rock aquifers. Farmer perception was that the high nutrient content of the wastewater was of value, although they were also interested to pay modest amounts for additional pre-treatment. …”

On-site and off-site impact of watershed development: a case study of Rajasamadhiyala, Gujarat, India by Sreedevi, T.K., Wani, S.P., Sudi, R., Patel, M.S., Talati, Jayesh, Singh, S.N., Shah, Tushaar

“…However, because of geological formation in the Deccan plateau where soils are formed over a layer of weathered trap laid on hard rock during normal rainfall years, these structures overflow 2-3 times in the rainy season. …”

Possible links between groundwater geochemistry and chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu): an investigation from the Ginnoruwa Region in Sri Lanka by Balasooriya, S., Munasinghe, H., Herath, A. T., Diyabalanage, S., Ileperuma, O. A.

“…Diferences in major ion geochemistry in groundwaters are possibly governed by variable time periods of water storage in fractured hard rock aquifers in this region. Hydrogeochemical parameters were statistically compared by a Mann–Whitney U test and indicated signifcant diferences in total dissolved solids (TDS) (p=0.016), SO4 2- (p=0.005), PO4 3- (p=0.030), F- (p=0.048), Na+ (p=0.008), and Mg2+(p=0.008) between non-CKDu and CKDu wells at p=0.050 level. …”

Groundwater modeling for sustainable resource management in the Musi catchment, India by Massuel, Sylvain, George, B., Gaur, Anju, Nune, R.

“…The Musi sub-basin is mainly covered by Archaean granites with Deccan Traps at the Eastern edge. As in a typical hard rock aquifer region, the yield of the bores decreases with depth due to the reduction of the fracture density. …”
