rain water harvesting is a mitigation strategy for_____
Answers
Answer:
drought-prone areas
Surface rainwater harvesting practiced very widely in the drought prone tahsils of Satara district. It is found many percolation tanks constructed a post-independence of India, are still in use. We find that the surface rainwater harvesting structures are more prevalent in area covered with basalt hard rock in the region. Surface rainwater harvesting is justified by the nature of rainfall in semi-arid areas. If not managed, it quickly evaporates or runs as flash floods into saline sinks. Thus, the starting point of rainwater harvesting is to capture rainwater where it fall for purposes of meeting the water needs of that area. Any excess can then be transferred for use in downstream areas. The main objective of this study is measures three type of surface rainwater harvesting potential in rural area; one is runoff rainwater harvesting potential in hilly area, second is recharge and storage of rainwater harvesting potential in plateau area and third is artificial ground water recharge through rainwater harvesting potential. We also suggest suitable sites of the rainwater harvesting structures with the help of physiography of the area and also estimated rainwater harvesting potential in the region.
