  Author(s): Kanchan Deoli Bahukhandi*
  
  The Himalayan ecosystem is one of the most fragile ecosystems in the world. Amid the growing changes in land use pattern due to deforestation, construction of multiple dams, mining, increased urbanization, and industrialization together with emission of greenhouses gases i.e CO2, NOx, CH4 and CFCs contributing to Global Warming has come to be seen as a risk affecting drastically the water chemistry of the region. The frequent cloud burst, avalanche, landslide along with flash flood are the most common human induced disaster which recurrently occurred in past few decades in the Himalayan region. This paper discusses about the impact of land use pattern on water chemistry of the region and spatial and temporal variation in water quality of the region. Among anions, bicarbonate is most dominant anions which constitute around 60 % to 70 % anion f.. Read More»
