Book Description
The study of the population is one of the important aspects of research on human development. ‘Population Geography’ is one of the newly developed branches of Human Geography. Population means a set of humans in a given area and it is one of the dominant factors which is responsible for the development of any country or region because man is the utilizer of the physical earth and he is also the creator of the cultural earth. Simply, Population Geography means the study of the population and its characteristics. Population Geography studies Population growth, Distribution, Density, Literacy rate, Sex composition and Age structure, Health, Mortality, Morbidity, Migration, Fertility and reproductivity etc. India is the most populous country in the world. Our country covers only 2.4 percent of the land area of the world, whereas it is the home of more than 17.7 percent of the world’s population.

Development Trajectories of River Basins
Author: François Molle
Publisher: IWMI
ISBN: 9290905247
Category : Water conservation
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
The development of societies is shaped to a large extent by their resources base, notably water resources. Access to and control of water depend primarily on the available technology and engineering feats, such as river-diversion structures, canals, dams and dikes. As growing human pressure on water resources brings actual water use closer to potential ceilings, supply-augmentation options get scarcer, and societies, therefore, usually respond by adopting conservation measures and by reallocating water towards more beneficial uses.

The Indian Rivers
Author: Dhruv Sen Singh
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811029849
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 554
Book Description
The book presents geomorphological studies of the major river basins – the Indus, Ganga and Brahmaputra and their tributaries. Besides major basins, the book explores peninsular rivers and other rivers state-by-state. All types of rivers, i.e. snow-fed, rain-fed and groundwater-fed rivers are explained together in geological framework. Rivers are lifeline and understanding of the rivers, their dynamics, science and socio-economic aspect is very important. However, different sources provide different data base for rivers. But a book which explains all major rivers of a country at a single place was not yet available. This book is the first book of its kind in the world which provides expert opinion on all major rivers of a country like India. This book complements works in these areas for the last two to three decades on major rivers of India by eminent professors and scientists from different universities, IITs and Indian research institutions. The information presented in the book would appeal to a wider readership from students, teachers to researchers and planners engaged in developmental work and also to common people of the society concerned with awareness about rivers.
