Recent progress in deep UV light emitting diodes (LEDs) [9] and avalanche photodiodes (APDs) [10, 11] offers promise for deployment of low-cost/power and moderate bandwidth short-range UV communication systems [12, 13], including underwater communications [14, 15] and sensor networks [16, 17].
Water availability on moderate to steep sloppy terrain makes the watershed more vulnerable to various geohazards such as avalanches, landslide, rockfall etc. as it acts as lubricant (Fig. 6).
