In a semi-arid country like India, surface water is not available throughout the year for various purposes. Groundwater in these is characterized by low rainfall and low infiltration rate, due to less vegetation, high evapotranspiration rate, and temporal and spatial heterogeneity in quantity and quality. Tummalapalle is a semi-arid climate zone where dry weather with bright sunshine prevails which facilitates high evaporation rate. Tummalapalle is famous for uranium deposits in India. This book covers about the remote sensing studies and hydrogeochemical studies in Tummalapalle area. The remote sensing studies include an integrated approach based on advanced applications of remote sensing and geographical information systems (GIS). The second part deals with the assessment of water quality in groundwater potential zones to assess the variability of groundwater parameters and its suitability for domestic and irrigation purposes and to understand the processes controlling the chemistry of groundwater including groundwater modelling and statistical techniques.
