The book presents a watershed based sustainable livelihoods
framework which analyses the livelihoods of watershed community,
evaluates watershed interventions and establishes linkages between
livelihoods and hydrological components. A methodology is proposed
for quantification of the socio-economic aspects, which is found
effective in measuring the impacts of watershed program on local
community. The SWAT hydrological model with ArcView GIS interface
has been used to simulate various watershed interventions for water
and sediment yields. Statistical analysis like factor and
regression modelling is used to establish linkages between
livelihoods and hydrological components. The GIS has played an
important role in database creation, data processing and analysis.
The methodology is employed on three watersheds namely Dudhi
micro-watershed, Bewas micro-watershed and Dudhi milli-watershed
which fall in Raisen district of Madhya Pradesh State in India. The
students and practitioners in the area of water resources,
hydrology, environment, agriculture, irrigation, rural management
and developmental studies will find this book interesting for their
academic curricula and research projects.
