Monitoring from space, aerial and in situ platforms in coastal regions will help develop models for interactions between ecological and anthropogenic processes, helping sustainable management of coast...
The Indian coastline sustains unique habitats that are subjected to increasing anthropogenic stressors. The National Centre for Coastal Research (NCCR), engaged in addressing coastal concerns over thr...
The Indian coasts hold diverse geomorphological features—mudflats, rocky shores, cliffs, sandy beaches and deltaic reaches that shelter unique ecosystems. However, significant sections of the coastlin...
The profile based on 2011 Census suggests that access to tap water, presumably a safe source, is a distant dream to many as only 44 per cent of population can avail it.
Policy failures have resulted in millions of Indians living without adequate access to safe drinking water. Water ATMs have the potential to ensure easy and cost-effective access. However, a careful c...
Groundwater has increasingly been reported to include largely geogenic and anthropogenic contaminants such as iron, bacteria, arsenic, fluoride, nitrates etc. Over the decades, there has been a growin...
Management of drinking water has become a debatable issue and India is no exception. The centralised piped network introduced in British India has continued post-independence as the only model of wate...

Policy failures have resulted in millions of Indians living without adequate access to safe drinking water. Water ATMs have the potential to ensure easy and cost-effective access. However, a careful consideration of its sustainability is essential.
Groundwater has increasingly been reported to include largely geogenic and anthropogenic contaminants such as iron, bacteria, arsenic, fluoride, nitrates etc. Over the decades, there has been a growing concern about arsenic contamination due to its severe health consequences.
