Research Project:
Ph. D:
Project Tile: Modeling Climate Change Impacts on Catchment Hydrology and Reservoir Sedimentation.
Summary: Physically distributed hydrologic model ArcSWAT has been used to address the effect of
LULC dynamics, climate change and management of watersheds on hydrologic response of the
Damodar catchment and reservoir sedimentation. The simulated hydrological effect of LULC dynamics
and climate change using ArcSWAT model revealed a gradual increase in reservoir inflow and sediment

inflow to the Panchet reservoir during the 1970-2000 with relatively greater influence of climate
variability than LULC change. Future projections of the reservoir inflow, reservoir sediment inflow and
sedimentation rate into the three reservoirs (Konar, Tenughat and Panchet) showed an increase in future
periods (2020s, 2050s and 2080s) with respect to base period (1970-1999), under future climate
projections by REMO and HadRM3 model under the A1B scenario. Results revealed that the catchment
will be under high threat of soil erosion in future and some management strategies should be adapted to
slowdown the impact of climate change on the water resources. Adaption of the identified BMPs has
proven to be effective under predicted future climate, from both the RCMs, for increasing the water
availability and reducing the soil erosion from the catchment, and thus in reducing the reservoir
sedimentation rate. The outputs of this research work substantiate our current understating on the effect
of LULC and future climate change on the catchment response at regional scale. It will also enable the
policy and decision makers to formulate a proper management practice in the region so that the
environmental sustainability of the catchment can be maintained under future climate change.
M.Tech:
Project title: Hydrological Modeling of Damodar Catchment (Damodar valley Corporation, Hazaribagh)
using AVSWAT_X (Arc View Soil and Water Assessment Tool).
Summary: The aim of the project is to calibrate and validate the SWAT model for the Damodar
catchment for sediment yield, runoff (Nagwan and Banikdih watershed) and reservoir inflow for the
Konar and Panchet reservoir and to simulate the effect of change in management practices on the
sedimentation rate and life of Konar and Panchet reservoir. To identify the critical sub-watersheds on the
basis of estimated sediment yield. For this AVSWAT_X hydrologic model is applied to upper DVC
(Damodar Valley Corporation). During this project various GIS software are used SWAT (Soil and
Water Assessment Tool) Erdas Imagine 8.5, Arc view 3.2a, ArcGIS 9.1.
B.Tech:
Project title: Software development for the Drip Irrigation System for Central U.P region.
Summary: The work consists of understanding of climatic as well as soil dependent variables
parameters that affect the design of any irrigation system and based upon those findings a software was
developed that helps the drip irrigation system manufacturer for designing their apparatus.
