Based on the author s work on four important aspects of irrigation managementcanals, tanks, wells, and water pollutionthis study highlights the linkages between different sources of irrigation as well as approaches to irrigation management that argue for an integrated approach for achieving water security. The study emanates from intensive field research covering different agro-climatic locations in Andhra Pradesh, and the results demonstrate that water security is indispensable for addressing inter- and intra-regional inequalities in development, sustaining the ecological balance, and...

Integrated Assessment of Scale Impacts of Watershed Interventions is the outcome of a multi-disciplinary research team of social scientists, hydrologists (groundwater and surface water), modellers; and bio-physical scientists who have worked together over five years to develop an integrated model of the sustainability of biophysical, economic and social impacts of watersheds. Impacts of watershed interventions are assessed at upstream, mid-stream and downstream locations of two hydrological units that are characterised with differential bio-physical attributes. The editors propose that...
