Hydrologic processes are affected by the spatial variability of soils, topography, land use and cover, climate, and humaninduced changes and management. Because contaminants are transported by runoff to surface waters and by infiltration and deep percolation to groundwater, hydrologic processes are

## Abstract Nonβpoint source (NPS) pollution from agricultural land is increasing exponentially in many countries of the world, including India. A modified approach based on the conservation of mass and reaction kinetics has been derived to estimate the inflow of nonβpoint source pollutants from a
Geographical Information Systems or GIS are becoming useful tools in making strategic decisions in a variety of government and business activities in areas such as housing, healthcare, land use, natural resources, environmental monitoring, public health, transportation, retail, and routing.

## Abstract Water resources assessment, which is an essential task in making development plans managing water resources, is considerably difficult to do in a dataβpoor region. In this study, we attempted to conduct a quantitative water resources assessment in a poorly gauged mountainous catchment,
A binary response estimation procedure using contingent valuation data is proposed for estimating the incremental environmental benefits associated with the use of constructed wetlands to control agricultural waste-water runoff. The model uses two binary responses per individual while circumventing
