Activities such as agriculture, forestry, transport and house building use the land and change its natural state and functions. The impact of land-use change is associated with changes in the infiltration rate of the soil, soil texture and evapotranspiration thus affecting the hydrological response of watersheds. In this paper a study on the influence of land use changes on the hydrological regime of Osam riv...
