“…Riedel-Hiermaier-Thoma (RHT) model was observed within LS-DYNA software and was used to find rock fracturing uncertainty as far as rock cracking is concerned (16,21). The conceptual model in the groundwater modeling system was designed and analyzed by the software MODEFLOW, and results were found positive for the Artificial Recharging concept by injection well (24). However, all these experiments were designed for either mining or tunnel construction.…”

Due to yearly uneven rainfall distribution, exsiccation of water availability, specifically during the summer in the agricultural field in Saurashtra, is a usual scenario. Saurashtra region's land formation contains Basalt rock. The area is categorized under the semi-arid region. Hence, the Groundwater condition was observed to be poor as the self-characteristic of land for water-storage capacity for the Basalt is negligible within its strata. Mining Engineering and Groundwater Improvement Techniques were incorporated to find a way out of water stress conditions. An experimental study was carried out for mass blasting with the permission of the Government body and an expert team of mining explosions at the study area within the catchment of check dams and river beds. A group containing five borewells was blasted at a 27, 18, and 9 m depth, respectively. In each borehole, 15 blasts of 2.76 unit explosion were exploded together by sealing a cover of sand over it. The impact assessment of 30 wells was monitored Post-blast within the range of 400m of the Bore Blasting Technique (BBT) performed. As a result, a rise in water level up to 19m has been recorded near the streamline of BBT performed. In addition, the movement of the water was diverted from its parental aquifer to the observed dug wells. Hence, it is concluded that channelizing the groundwater can be possible by incorporating BBT in the basalt region, and identical improvement can also possible interms of fractured basalt rock and availability of water in the basalt region.

Climate change has a considerable impact on irrigated agriculture, which is vital for food and fiber production. In this study, in the context of climate change, simulation model CROPWAT 8 was employed to compute the reference evapotranspiration, and net irrigation water requirement for wheat, barley, maize, sugar beet, potato, tomato, and date palm. In addition, the WaterGEMS model was utilized to design a new sprinkler irrigation system to run long-term simulations of hydraulic behavior within pressurized pipe networks to irrigate 43 acres for two arid sites (Siwa Oasis and West Elminya fields) inside the 1.5-million-acre groundwater irrigation project in the Egyptian western desert. Five scenarios for climate change were employed in the current (1991–2023), representative concentration path (RCP) 8.5 greenhouse gas emission scenarios for the 2040s, 2060s, 2080s, and 2100s. Mean ETo values for the current scenario show 4.56 and 5.7 mm for the Siwa Oasis and West Elminya fields, respectively. The climate changes cause an increase of the reference evapotranspiration by 4.6, 5.9, 9.4, and 12.7% for RCP: 8.5 greenhouse gas emissions for the 2040s, 2060s, 2080s, and 2100s scenarios, respectively, for the Siwa Oasis field. On the other hand, an increased ratio for the reference evapotranspiration by 4.2, 5.4, 8.6, and 11.6% was observed for the scenarios in the West Elminya field, respectively. The designed sprinkler system indicated a capacity of 111.4 m3 h−1 and 167 m3 h−1 for Siwa and West Elminya fields, respectively. The study suggests using crop patterns for wheat, barley, potato, and sugar beet to save irrigation water. Graphical abstract
