It has become imperative on the part of water scientists and planners to adopt techniques for quantifying the available groundwater resources for sustainable development and management keeping in mind the scarcity of available water resources versus its demand in the near future. The apparent heterogeneities and complexities present in the hard rock aquifers makes it a challenging research to tackle groundwater problems. The intricacy increases manifold for the management of groundwater when the hard rock aquifers are situated in arid or semi arid regions. The demand/supply gap has led to the over abstraction of the groundwater and water level depletion in many areas beyond economic exploitation. The Indo French Center for Groundwater Research (IFCGR) at Hyderabad India has taken this challenge and using a suitable pilot site with all the requisites for studying hard rock aquifers present has surveyed and experimented extensively a typical granitic aquifer present in a semi arid and monsoon climate agricultural area. The present book contains the results and findings of the advanced research carried out in the pilot area with a thorough investigation of the structure and functioning of the aquifer in such a formation. The various chapters arranged in the book start from a very general scenario of the water resources management in the country an extremely technical contribution on the hard rock aquifer system its characterization theoretical portion of its properties and behaviour that has been necessary to enter into the environment.
