INTRODUCTION

REVIEW PAPER Vs RESEARCH PAPER

• Review and Research paper are two sides of a coin in literature and writing
• The review paper is written on the research paper or any other written piece which
has already been done whereas the Research paper is written on research by an
individual
• Review paper generally sums up the already existing works and relates it to the current
status of the topic or situation.
• The main difference between a Review paper and Research paper is, Review paper,
is a secondary source and research on an already existing report whereas the Research
paper is a primary source and gives an original report on a topic done by an individual.

Topics selected for review
A topic of our choice is selected for reviewing,
and the topic is as follows;

1. Sustainable Water Management- Rainwater Harvesting systems for

Residential Units in Karivellur Region, Kannur.


TOPIC 2- SUSTAINABLE WATER MANAGEMENT

Title: “Sustainable Water management- Rainwater Harvesting


systems for Residential Units in Karivellur Region, Kannur”
Abstract:

Water is a finite natural resource that is essential for our survival.


Over the years the reserves of freshwater are running low and some regions in the world are faced with severe
water stress.
Climate change has impacted the pattern and amount of precipitation and the water shortage has escalated with
rapid population growth and urbanization.
As a result, we and the natural environment are confronted with a serious water shortage. Sustainable water
management is a strategy for maintaining future water resources that include increasing water supply and
managing the way we use freshwater to sustain economic growth for current and future generations.
Karivellur panchayath experience severe water scarcity in Kerala even after receiving heavy monsoon rains.
This study aims to discuss the state-of-the-art of managing water supply and demand as a natural resources and
what indicators result in water scarcity to karivellur and what methods to be adopted to tackle water scarcity in
Karivellur Panchayat, Kannur District. Through the study- the technologies like rainwater harvesting that have
been developed to implement sustainable water management at the community scale, is to be demonstrated with
case studies.
Aim:
To study new approaches on Rainwater harvesting systems in
light of existing water governance systems and technologies
adopted in regions experiencing water scarcity and to develop
a strategy for RWH in region of Krivellur, Kannur.
Objectives:

• Analyse and study about existing water governance and the laws, policies,
administration related to water management in India and Kerala context
• Identify and study about various agencies, NGOs and other organisations dealing with
sustainable water management and the strategies followed by them
• Analyse the statistical data based on the availability and quality of water in urban, sub
urban and peri urban areas of the region experiencing water scarcity.
• Identify the major cause for water scarcity in the identified region
• Study about RWH systems and to identify existing sustainable practises in providing
water to water scare region by RWH systems.

1. Collection of data, laws and policies regulating water governance and sustainable water
management system
2. Case studies of existing RWH system implemented under several water governance policies
3. Analyse the reports and case studies and draw inference from the analysis
4. Detailed study about the sustainable water management approaches including water recharge,
waste water management, rain water harvesting etc has to be done
5. Combine inference evolved and arrive at new feasible approaches of sustainable water
management systems from the knowledge acquired from the review study.
