Monitoring surface dynamics is crucial for sustainable ecosystems and global water resources. Importance of monitoring surface water dynamics is even more pronounced in the semi-arid regions worldwide. An analysis of surface water extent and volume change patterns has been conducted, comparing these dynamics with alterations in precipitation patterns within a basin in Central Bundelkhand, a semi-arid region in the Central India prone to droughts. To map the waterbodies, we leveraged Sentinel-1 SAR data using an automated mapping framework and utilised DEM dataset to extract bathymetry using interpolation with modifications using water persistence. Analysis revealed a lag in surface water peak water level with respect to accumulated rainfall by 2–3 months. Furthermore, we have categorised the water bodies into small, medium and large by surface area and found that smaller water bodies show a higher intra-annual variance, while medium and large water bodies show a lower intra-annual variance. The findings suggest that smaller communities reliant on smaller water bodies are at a higher risk from climate variability in the region and a delay in attaining peak surface storage across the basin causes further challenges to water management.</p><p>Les eaux de surface jouent un rôle important dans l'agriculture, la production domestique et industrielle à l'échelle mondiale. La surveillance de la dynamique de surface est importante du point de vue des écosystèmes durables et des ressources en eau dans le monde entier. L'importance de la surveillance de la dynamique des eaux de surface est encore plus prononcée dans les régions semi-arides du monde entier. Le Bundelkhand est une région semi-aride du centre de l'Inde souvent en proie à des sécheresses. Nous avons analysé les schémas d'étendue et de changement de volume des eaux de surface et comparé la dynamique avec les changements dans les schémas de précipitations sur un bassin du centre du Bundelkhand. Nous avons exploité les données SAR de Sentinel-1 pour cartographier les plans d'eau de la région à l'aide d'un cadre de cartographie automatisé et utilisé l'ensemble de données DEM pour extraire la profondeur bathymétrique en utilisant l'interpolation avec des modifications utilisant la persistance de l'eau. Notre analyse a révélé un retard de réponse des eaux de surface par rapport aux précipitations de 2 à 3 mois. En outre, nous avons classé les masses d'eau en petites, moyennes et grandes masses d'eau selon le Centre national d'informatique de l'eau et avons constaté que les petites masses d'eau ont une variance intra-annuelle plus élevée et que les masses d'eau moyennes et grandes ont une variance intra-annuelle plus faible.

As an adaptation measure, disaster prevention and mitigation using natural processes and mechanisms (or ‘green infrastructure’) have become widely recognized in many countries. Ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction has been promoted in Japan since 2015. The ‘Tambo Dam’, a flood mitigation project using paddy fields in which the authors have participated, has the potential to become one of the most extensive forms of green infrastructure in Japan. This study outlines the runoff control mechanisms of Tambo Dams, demonstrates their effectiveness in reducing flood damage at the watershed scale, and discusses two key factors for successful sustainable efforts: the design of appropriate runoff control equipment and administrative schemes that support incentives for the efforts of farmers. The results indicated that Tambo Dam implementation represented a crucial strategy for managing agricultural resources. The functionality of paddy fields could be preserved by managing them as Tambo Dams. This approach not only contributes to flood control but also ensures a swift return to rice cultivation during emergencies. Moreover, establishing a system akin to the Tambo Dam initiative of Mitsuke City, supported by the ‘Direct Payment Scheme for Multifunctional Activities’ for maintenance and management, could ensure the feasibility of Tambo Dam implementation.</p><p>Les changements climatiques récents ont entraîné des catastrophes naturelles graves et fréquentes à l'échelle mondiale, ce qui a rendu nécessaire une adaptation à ces événements. En tant que mesure d'adaptation, la prévention et l'atténuation des catastrophes à l'aide de processus et de mécanismes naturels (ou « infrastructures vertes ») sont désormais largement reconnues dans de nombreux pays. La réduction des risques de catastrophe basée sur les écosystèmes (Eco-DRR) est promue au Japon depuis 2015. Le ‘barrage Tambo’, un projet d'atténuation des inondations utilisant des rizières auquel les auteurs ont participé, a le potentiel de devenir l'une des formes les plus étendues d'infrastructures vertes au Japon. Cette étude décrit les mécanismes de contrôler le ruissellement des barrages Tambo, démontre leur efficacité dans la réduction des dommages causés par les inondations à l'échelle du bassin versant et examine deux facteurs clés pour des efforts durables réussis: la conception d'équipements appropriés de contrôle du ruissellement et des systèmes administratifs qui soutiennent les incitations offertes aux agriculteurs pour leurs efforts.
