  • Abstract:
  • Effective management of watersheds is essential for the conservation of undeveloped areas, including forests, rangelands, and alpine vegetation. It is a fundamental component of rural development and worldwide natural resource management. Watershed management is complex because of the varied and sometimes contradictory requirements imposed on these systems, resulting in an unequal allocation of advantages and disadvantages among many users. Gradually, watershed management strategies have shifted from a predominantly technical emphasis to one that prioritizes social organization and community involvement. Nevertheless, these culturally motivated approaches may not necessarily be readily reproducible in other settings. The objective of this study is to offer a thorough examination of hydrological principles and their implementation in modern engineering methods, with a specific emphasis on watershed management, water harvesting systems, and the design of associated structures.
