An assessment of the replacement of traditional irrigation systems by private wells in Tamil Nadu, India

چکیده
In developing Asian countries, a major recent change in irrigation management is the rapid spread of private pumps and wells (modern irrigation systems). This process was accelerated by the introduction of the hydraulic drilling method in the 1980s and further by the development of the pump industry in China and India in the 1990s. The spread of modern systems is associated with the decline in traditional, communally managed irrigation systems.

متن کاملDaytime Ozone Variation in Surface Air in a Subtropical Mangrove Estuary at Manakudy, South India
Surface ozone (SOZ) can be very harmful if it exceeds the threshold limit. It can accumulate over sea and can return back to the land along with the breeze. Rural and vegetation rich areas often record elevated levels of surface ozone because of the variations in Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) levels, wind velocity and direction.
