In the Midst of the Large Dam Controversy: Objectives, Criteria for Assessing Large Water Storages in the Developing World
Shah, Zankhana; Kumar, M. - In: Water Resources Management 22 (2008) 12, pp. 1799-1824
By some estimates, there are 47,000 large dams in the world. India had 4,635 “large dams” as per ICOLD definition. Only technical criteria such as height and storage volume are used for this classification. Large dam projects increasingly face opposition from the environmental lobby from...

Flood Intensification due to Changes in Land Use
Saghafian, Bahram; Farazjoo, Hassan; Bozorgy, Babak; … - In: Water Resources Management 22 (2008) 8, pp. 1051-1067
The non-stationarity in runoff regime may be attributed to various causes such as climate change, land use change, and man-made runoff control structures. Degradation of land use can induce significant impact on infiltration and surface roughness leading to higher flood discharges. This study...
