thanks for your comment.
I agree with you that socio-hydrogeology is as important as still less understood, but it is good to know that there are many hydrogeologist willing to reverse this trend!

You can find more details on my socio-hydrogeological approach in this recently published (open access) article:
Incorporating the social dimension into hydrogeochemical investigations for rural development: the Bir Al-Nas approach for socio-hydrogeology (http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10040-015-1284-8)
and on my blog (https://biralnas.wordpress.com/).

Also I will be happy to know more about your work, so feel free to contact me privately (all details in the blog).

Best regards,
Viviana

Working as a hydrogeologist in the government sector for the RWSS (Rural Water Supply and Sanitaion) department in the state of Odisha, India, I often come face to face with the social dimension of water as a resource. Be it the salinity problem in the coastal tract or the high level of flouride and iron in ground water in the hinterland, they all come with their intricacies of social/management issues. As a geo-hydrologist, it’s a great challenge to apply your scientific moorings to come up something that becomes useful.
I would be interested to know how you use the social aspect as an investigation tool of ground water.

Thanks
Sanjaya
