Continuous groundwater quality monitoring is crucial for ensuring safe drinking and irrigation by mitigating risks from geochemical contaminants through appropriate treatment methods. Therefore, the primary objective of this study was to assess suitability collected Lucknow, India, both irrigation. Forty samples were different sites within area evaluate quality. Various parameters such as pH, turbidity, total dissolved solids (TDS), chlorides (Cl−), alkalinity, hardness, sulphate (SO42−), nitrate (NO3−), fluorides (F−), iron (Fe), arsenic (As), magnesium (Mg2+), calcium (Ca2+) analyzed. The weighted arithmetic water index (WAWQI), a vital rating system representing overall quality, employed classify into categories, very good, moderate, poor, unfit drinking. This classification invaluable public awareness decision-making make informed decisions regarding effective management, treatment, sustainable societal development on broader scale. A correlation matrix generated analyzed observe correlations between various parameters. Additionally, spatial distribution maps WQI prepared using inverse distance (IDW) method. found that values in ranged 2.64 168.68, indicating good most places except Kukrail region, where purposes. map shows 86% falls under category, 14.63% moderate 0.37% categorized Consequently, findings suggest studied suitable

The main aim of this study is to comprehensively analyze the dynamics land use and cover (LULC) changes in Bathinda region Punjab, India, encompassing historical, current, future trends. To forecast LULC, Cellular Automaton–Markov Chain (CA) based on artificial neural network (ANN) concepts was used using cartographic variables such as environmental, economic, cultural. For segmenting a combination ML models, support vector machine (SVM) Maximum Likelihood Classifier (MLC). empirical nature, it employs quantitative analyses shed light LULC variations through time. result indicates that barren expected shrink from 55.2 km2 1990 5.6 2050, signifying better management or increasing human activity.

Abstract Climate change and anthropogenic factors have exacerbated flood risks in many regions across the globe, including Himalayan foothill region India. The Jia Bharali River basin, situated this vulnerable area, frequently experiences high-magnitude floods, causing significant damage to environment local communities. Developing accurate reliable susceptibility models is crucial for effective prevention, management, adaptation strategies. In study, we aimed generate a comprehensive zone model catchment by integrating statistical methods with expert knowledge-based mathematical models. We applied four distinct models, Frequency Ratio model, Fuzzy Logic (FL) Multi-criteria Decision Making based Analytical Hierarchy Process evaluate of basin. results revealed that approximately one-third basin area fell within moderate very high flood-prone zones. contrast, over 50% was classified as low demonstrated strong performance, ROC-AUC scores exceeding 70% MAE, MSE, RMSE below 30%. FL AHP were recommended application among areas similar physiographic characteristics due their exceptional performance training datasets. This study offers insights policymakers, regional administrative authorities, environmentalists, engineers working region. By providing robust research enhances prevention efforts thereby serving vital climate strategy regions. findings also implications disaster risk reduction sustainable development areas, contributing global towards achieving United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.
