Instream Large Wood Enhances the Benefits of e‐Floods in Regulated Mountain Rivers
ABSTRACT Environmental high flows, or e‐floods, released from dams are a key management strategy to mitigate the impacts of dam regulation and restore aquatic and riparian habitats. While there is extensive literature on the design and implementation of e‐floods, the role of instream large wood—downed trees, trunks, branches, and root wads—in enhancing

ABSTRACT Groundwater governance is complex due to several externalities associated with groundwater being an invisible natural resource tied to the land with millions of extractors and limited means of exclusion. The paper traces the evolution of groundwater irrigation in India and the corresponding change in groundwater laws and policies to address ...
