An integrated reservoir operation framework for enhanced water resources planning.

Climate change induced spatiotemporal variation in global water availability modifies the proposed design criteria of water infrastructure structures like dams and reservoirs. Although reservoir operation is treated as a potential adaptation option, obsolescence of existing operation rules in the climate change scenarios could cause devastating situation through faulty water management practices. Presently onboard simulation-optimization based reservoir operation schemes fail to capture the uncertainty involved in the climate change scenario.

Snot-22 a Predictive and Assessment Tool for Subjective Improvement After Fess in Patients of Chronic Rhinosinusitis.

Chronic Rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common health problem with an estimated prevalence of 6.8% in Asia. The treatment of CRS involves an initial course of maximal medical therapy followed by Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS).

Title-Optical Forceps: The Real Boon for Surgeon, Residents and Patients with Foreign Body Aspiration.

Management of aspirated foreign bodies in children becomes very challenging in absence of most appropriate instruments. Rigid bronchoscopy has evolved in the long course of history. The advent of Hopkins rod telescope and optical forceps has enhanced the efficacy as well as the safety of removing tracheobronchial foreign bodies.

Multimodal Analysis of Dysphonia in Smokers: A Two Year Comprehensive Study.

To study the specific effects of smoking on laryngeal mucosa and voice using video-stroboscopy, subjective and objective voice analysis. This cross-sectional and observational study was carried out in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, M.G.

Improved drought monitoring in teleconnection to the climatic escalations: A hydrological modeling based approach.

Catchment-scale efficient agricultural drought monitoring and irrigation planning mostly depend on the accuracy of evapotranspiration (ET) estimates under different crop-growth phases. As indirect ET estimation under limited data availability scenario and complex paddy-field dynamics could not be sufficiently addressed by the conventional curve number (CN) based SWAT model, SWAT incorporates an add-in pothole module (SWAT-P) that conceptualizes the paddy-field hydrology with the empirical coefficient or equations resulting in poor ET estimates. To address these limitations, this study integrates an improved pothole methodology in SWAT (SWAT-EP) accounting the vadose-zone soil water dynamics under alternate ponding and drying conditions, ET variation under moisture abundant and stress conditions, and role of irrigation return flow generated in the paddy fields.
