The potential impacts of climate change on the water resources of the Narmada basin in central India has been investigated using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). The existing dams in the river basin have been incorporated in the model setups, calibration and validation. The COordinated Regional climate Downscaling EXperiment datasets for South-Asia (CORDEX-SA) at 0.5o x 0.5o resolution for four-time horizons, viz., 1970-05 (historical), 2006-40 (near-term), 2041-70 (mid-term) and 2071-99 (end-term) under Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) scenarios, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 has been used to investigate the changes in the future climate and simulation of future streamflow. The proposed dams have also been incorporated for modeling the future developmental scenarios. The scenario analysis based on the projected climate variables has led to the inference that the change in the precipitation pattern coupled with the warming trends, maybe contributing towards higher variability in water availability. A future scenario of lower water availability and higher water demands thus calls for optimal utilization of available water resources in the future, so that the higher water demands can be satisfied with lower anticipated future flows. Various alternatives were explored for devising adaptation strategies using the engineering/technical solutions in which the optimal water resources management approaches were explored using the simulation-only and the genetic algorithm based simulation-optimization approaches. The simulation-optimization framework based integrated reservoir operation of four reservoirs has led to better reservoir performance and the number of irrigation failures has decreased substantially from 92 to 12 during 2006-40, 86 to 22 during 2041-70 and 89 to 10 during 2071-99. The hydropower failures have also decreased considerably from 202 to 96 during 2006-40, 192 to 28 during 2041-70 and 179 to 67 during 2071-99 under the RCP8.5 scenario. There were no failures in meeting the domestic water supply and environment flow demands. This may be an important adaptation measure to address the issues of climate change impacts on the water resources in the future in the Narmada basin.

Accurate spatial and temporal measurement of water budget play a crucial role in achieving the sustainable planning and management of water resources. This paper presents a comprehensive integrated approach to simulate hydrological responses under dynamics of land use land cover (LULC) and climate change scenarios over Upper Narmada Basin, India. In order to select the representative climate models, scoring method was applied at regional scale. Best five performing climate models (MIROC5, CNRM-CM5, MPI-ESM-LR, GFDL-ESM2G and IPSL-CM5A-MR) were coupled with semi-distributed hydrological model to simulate the hydrological responses. Considering the heterogeneity of the large basin, multi-site calibration and parameters sensitivity analysis were performed using Sequential Uncertainty Fitting (SUFI-2) algorithm. To compute the hydrological sensitivity against land use change, calibrated model was coupled with historical and futuristic land use scenarios (1990, 2000, 2010 and 2030). The results indicate intensified precipitation towards the late 21st century, whereas annual mean temperature could be raised by 1.79 °C and 3.57 °C under mid and high emission scenarios respectively, at the end of century. Annual and monsoon flow in the basin likely to increase during the 2050 s (2041–2070) and 2080 s (2071–2100). Moreover, the relation between climate variables and water budget components were identified to analyse the hydrological sensitivity of the basin under changing climate.

This paper presents a novel approach for an improved estimate of regional groundwater storage (GWS) change in Northwestern India by integrating satellite-based Gravity Recovery and Climate Exchange (GRACE) gravity observation and hydrological modelling of satellite/in situ hydrometeorological data. Initially, GRACE observation-based terrestrial water storage (TWS) change and hydrological model-based TWS change products were integrated using weight coefficients derived from multi-linear regression analysis of TWS change vs governing hydrological components. Later, the monthly average soil moisture change was subtracted from the monthly average individual and integrated TWS change products to obtain GWS change products. By spatial correlation analysis, three GWS change products were then compared with groundwater level (GWL) fluctuation-based in situ GWS change. Hydrological model, spaceborne GRACE observation, and integrated GWS change products show a positive correlation in ~59, ~69, and ~73% of the area with in situ GWS change. While a hydrological model-based estimate considers geology, terrain, and hydrometeorological conditions, GRACE gravity observation includes groundwater withdrawal from aquifers. All the factors are included in the integrated product. The approach overcomes the limitations of GRACE observation (spatial resolution, geology, terrain, and hydrometeorological factors), hydrological modelling (groundwater withdrawal conditions), and conventional GWL fluctuation-based method (inadequate spatial continuity and cumbersome, labour-intensive exercise).
