Reasons why water storage reservoirs are necessary in accordance with the sustainable development strategy are described in the paper. The main positive and negative impacts of reservoirs on the environment are analyzed. The most important are: the improvement of hydrological regimes (decreasing maximal and increasing minimal flows), the creation of optimal water management, utilization and protection of water, and the creation of better conditions for river and coastal ecosystems. Negative impacts and measures for its mitigation or elimination are also analyzed. The conclusion is that water storage reservoirs can be harmoniously incorporated into the environment. Serbia has a limited number of locations suitable for the construction of reservoirs, therefore it is necessary to retain these areas for storage in regional development plans and other legal acts.

Pearl millet also called “poor man food” is known for its drought resistance, well adaptation to harsh conditions like soils with poor water holding capacity, low nutrient status, problematic soils, etc. Irrigation has been recognized as a basic necessity for sustaining high productivity of various crops. Moreover, it affects the crop yield directly as well as indirectly by increasing their response to other inputs including fertilizers and various management practices. It is well known that water deficit is one of the major abiotic factors limiting crop productivity in the semi-arid tropics. Out of the various production constraints; low productivity of pearl millet is mainly attributed to its cultivation under dry land conditions and improper water management under irrigated conditions. So application of irrigation water offers the scope for improving the quality as well as productivity of pearl millet. Therefore, to augment the productivity of the poor’s man crop, review of the research work related to irrigation scheduling and moisture conservation practices of pearl millet has been presented here for directing the future research.

Subject Water management in South-east Asia. Significance ASEAN countries face growing demands for better water management, following the region's worst drought in decades quickly followed by flooding. Without increased investment in water storage and flood mitigation systems, economic losses will rise, but most governments give the sector a low budget priority. Impacts The contentiousness of water politics in the Mekong sub-region could make reaching cross-border solutions difficult. Switching to crops that need less water may change land use and reshape national agriculture sectors. Popular pressure on governments will rise for water resource management improvements.

<p>Small reservoirs represent a critical water supply to farmers across semi-arid regions. Managing these water resources is challenging because hydrological forecasting suffers from sparse rainfall measurements that do not capture highly localised rainfall accumulations. Small reservoir tank structures across South India form part of a complex ancient traditional water distribution system that has historically supplied irrigation to cropped fields during the dry-season. Despite their historical significance and the critical need for water storage in an agrarian dominated country with unpredictable rainfall, thousands of tanks have fallen into a state of disrepair with the introduction of groundwater wells and cheap electrification in the 1960s. Our current understanding of these systems lacks knowledge about the functional state of these ancient traditional water systems. This is especially critical information that is needed to rehabilitate tank structures and support water management. Previous studies suggest that functioning tanks have the potential to increase both the current water supply and support groundwater recharge. But there is little quantitative evidence to support this assertion.</p><p>To understand tank functionality, spatially explicit and temporally dynamic frequent high-resolution surface water (SW) estimates developed in a synoptic and detailed way are needed. The increased availability of high-resolution satellite imagery provides a substantial opportunity to fulfill this need through the monitoring of small inland water bodies. Monitoring tank SW from earth observation (EO) sources is constrained by their small size (5-50 ha) and rapid water drainage. To support tank monitoring during cloud-covered monsoon seasons, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) observations used in synergy with high temporal resolution visible infra-red observations is desirable.</p><p>Building from an existing surface water monitoring approach (Vanthof and Kelly, 2019), the primary aim here is to assess large-scale dynamics of tank water storage state at a basin scale. This is achieved by using multi-date and multi-sensor satellite images (Landsat-8, Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, PlanetScope) for three years covering the northeast monsoon (Sept. – Dec.). SW observations from optical-infrared and radar observations are used to estimate tank SW areas for three monsoon seasons and converted to volumes using empirical rating curves developed for the region from Vanthof and Kelly (2019). Annually tanks were categorized by ‘tanks with water’ or ‘tanks without water’. For the ‘tanks with water’ category, an analysis was performed annually to identify spatial and temporal patterns in two indicators: temporal period of water storage and the rate of storage loss. Results show that hundreds of tanks are not able to store water despite precipitation inputs to the system. For tanks with water, further analysis reveals great variability among tanks for both indicators. As shown, this decade of EO offers exciting opportunities to apply data-driven approaches to complement more traditional physically-based hydrological understanding.  </p><p>Vanthof, V., & Kelly, R.
