In particular time series of data is plotted to find man-made sources like dams, wells, tube wells, hand-pumps, any possible trend. Using ARIMA model future water inflows canals, etc. Agriculture and plantation depends heavily on water is plotted. We would like to use the data for water and its source is rainfall. Mathematical models are required to management analysis and for model based statistical inference predict future water demand and climate changes. Time series are valuable sources of information that can be consulted for the of environmental systems that account for the need of using characterization of variables in several areas of knowledge. It is prior information, input and model structure uncertainty. In basically a measurement of data taken in chronological order order to analyze the water inflow the average wet weather within a certain time. In hydrology, such series are employed in flow can be estimated from water flow data. Water inflow is water systems management as tools for the hydrological cycle defined as the water other than sanitary wastewater that enters understanding.

Anbazhagan , G. Silas Abraham Department of Civil Engineering, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore 560012, India ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Region-specific seismic hazard analysis was carried out for Krishna Raja Sagara Dam site in Karnataka, India. Maximum magnitude Seismic event data and seismic source data within a 500 km radius were collected. Deterministic seismic hazard DSHA analysis was conducted for different methods of earthquake magnitude and location estimation. It was observed Probable earthquake locations that the ground motion estimates vary widely with different methods of Mmax estimation and that the rupture Peak ground acceleration based method, which calculates Mmax based on fault dimensions, can give a reliable estimate of the possible Peninsular India maximum magnitude in regions of low to moderate seismicity. Based on this study, the greatest median ground motion at the dam site is estimated as 0.43 g and the ground motion required to be tolerated without cata- strophic failure is considered as 0.11 g. In Stable Continental Regions across the world, where earthquake data is scarce, the methodology followed here can be adopted to conduct region-specific seismic hazard analysis. 1.

    HERITAGE OF MYSORE DIVISION - Mysore, Mandya, Hassan, Chickmagalur, Kodagu, Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Chamarajanagar Districts. Prepared by: Dr. J.V.Gayathri, Deputy Director, Arcaheology, Museums and Heritage Department, Palace Complex, Mysore 570 001. Phone:0821-2424671. The rule of Kadambas, the Chalukyas, Gangas, Rashtrakutas, Hoysalas, Vijayanagar rulers, the Bahamanis of Gulbarga and Bidar, Adilshahis of Bijapur, Mysore Wodeyars, the Keladi rulers, Haider Ali and Tipu Sultan and the rule of British Commissioners have left behind Forts, Magnificient Palaces, Temples, Mosques, Churches and beautiful works of art and architecture in Karnataka. The fauna and flora, the National parks, the animal and bird sanctuaries provide a sight of wild animals like elephants, tigers, bisons, deers, black bucks, peacocks and many species in their natural habitat. A rich variety of flora like: aromatic sandalwood, pipal and banyan trees are abundantly available in the State. The river Cauvery, Tunga, Krishna, Kapila – enrich the soil of the land and contribute to the State’s agricultural prosperity. The water falls created by the rivers are a feast to the eyes of the outlookers. Historical bakground: Karnataka is a land with rich historical past. It has many pre-historic sites and most of them are in the river valleys. The pre-historic culture of Karnataka is quite distinct from the pre- historic culture of North India, which may be compared with that existed in Africa. 1 Parts of Karnataka were subject to the rule of the Nandas, Mauryas and the Shatavahanas; Chandragupta Maurya (either Chandragupta I or Sannati Chandragupta Asoka’s grandson) is believed to have visited Sravanabelagola and spent his last years in this place.
