This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract The Par-Tapi-Narmada river link envisages transfer of surplus water from west flowing rivers between Par and Tapi in Gujarat State, India to water deficit areas in North Gujarat. The scheme is located mainly in southern Gujarat but it also covers part of the areas of Maharashtra, North of Mumbai on the Western Ghats of India. The main aim of Par-Tapi-Narmada link is to transfer the surplus waters of Par, Auranga, Ambica and Purna River basins to take over part of Narmada Canal command (Miyagam branch) after providing enroute irrigation. It is proposed that water saved in Sardar Sarovar Project, as a result of this transfer, would be taken further northwards to benefit water scarce areas of north Gujarat and also westwards in Saurashtra and Kutch regions. -

Research Article QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF COASTAL CHANGES BETWEEN NARMADA AND KIM RIVER OF SOUTH GUJARAT, INDIA Janak P Joshi1, Sumit Dabral2 and *Bindu Bhatt2 1Department of Geography, the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda 2NHPC Ltd., Tawang Hydro-Electric Project Stage I, Nehru Market, District: Tawang – 790104, Arunachal Pradesh, India *Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT Coastal areas are very important for human beings since the beginning of time. Change detection is the process of identifying differences in the state of an object or phenomenon by observing it at different times. Coastal changes are attracting more focus since they are important environmental indicators that directly impact coastal economic development and land management. Both natural and anthropogenic processes along the coast control the erosion, and accretion activities of the coastal zones The study quantifies the changes along the Coast between Narmada and Kim River of South Gujarat, India by using geospatial techniques. The analysis of the multi-temporal remote sensing data shows that the coast is subject to important changes during years between 1978-2011 time interval including erosion and accretion. The study also demonstrates the applicability and efficacy of geospatial technique for quantitative assessment and monitoring of the coastal environment. Key Words: Quantitative, Erosion, Accretion, Coastal Region, Geospatial INTRODUCTION Coastal zone is the transition area between land and ocean Aidy et al., (2007) and is an area of complex, dynamic and delicate environment. -

Monitoring Long-Term Morphological Changes of Narmada Estuary Using Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques
125 Journal of Geomatics Vol 8 No. 1 April 2014 Monitoring long-term morphological changes of Narmada estuary using remote sensing and GIS techniques M. Mahapatra, R. Ramakrishnan and A.S. Rajawat Space Applications Centre (ISRO), Jodhpur Tekra, Ambadi Vistar P.O., Ahmedabad – 380 015 Email: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] (Received: Jun 21, 2013; in final form Feb 10, 2014) Abstract: Long term monitoring of morphological changes in river estuaries is useful for understanding the evolution of river mouth geomorphology. In the present study the morphological changes in the estuary of the Narmada river are monitored and analyzed by means of remote sensing satellite images. Analysis of multi-date maps and satellite images spread over a 37-year period was carried out. It revealed significant changes in the land use/land cover and morphological features. The Alia Bet area which appeared as an island in the toposheets from 1974 has been progressively welded to the left bank of the Narmada estuary due to the closure of the southern branch of the estuary channel by accretion as can be seen in the Landsat TM image from 1990 and IRS Resourcesat-2 LISS IV from 2011. The shoreline of Alia Bet in the estuary has retreated landward by almost 4 km in certain sections. The Kim river, which is located to the south of the Narmada estuary, has shifted further south. The study also revealed that the region has transformed from a natural to an industrial-urban dominated landscape. Human activity in the form of salt pans, industrial and settlement built up has consistently increased during past three to four decades. -

[VOLUME 7 I ISSUE 2 I APRIL- JUNE 2020] e ISSN 2348 –1269, Print ISSN 2349-5138 http://ijrar.com/ Cosmos Impact Factor 4.236 ETHNOBOTANICAL STUDY OF MEDICINAL PLANTS USED BY TRADITIONAL USERS TO TREAT URINARY DISEASES IN PETH TALUKA OF NASHIK DISTRICT, MAHARASHTRA, INDIA. Dr.B.D.Garud and Smita Deepak Shinde P.G Department of Botany, JET'S ZulaljiraoPatil College, Dhule - 424002(Maharashtra)India. Received: March 19, 2020 Accepted: April 26, 2020 ABSTRACT: Ethnobotany is nothing but the study of the ancient plants and their relationship with the people (Jain, 2004). Health is the only pathway for the development of the human being. Traditional medicine encompasses the protection and restoration of health over the years. Herbal medicines include herbs, herbal materials, herbal preparations, and finished herbal products that contain active ingredients, parts of plants, or other plant materials or combinations. Tribals are knowledgeable about the utility of the majority of these plants. In talukas like Surgana, Harsul, Peth, Igatpuri, Trimbakeshwar tribal communities are prominently seen, here the forest is dry deciduous, and scrub. The relationship between the tribals and the forest is immemorable. Tribal means a group with similar ancestors, customs, and traditions. This group is very much bounded to each other. They worship their God, follow the tradition and customs, no matter how is today's world. In the Nashik district Bhil, Katkari, MahadeoKoli, Kokana, Adivasi are the tribal communities. Especially MahadeoKoli and Kokana are the largest community of all. Tribals are considered as the main city of the area. They live in 'Padas' and follow their old traditions. -

Range Extension and a Case for a Persistent Population of River Otters
IUCN Otter Spec. Group Bull. 34(2) 2017 R E P O R T HISTORICAL AND CURRENT DISTRIBUTION OF SMOOTH COATED OTTER Lutrogale perspicillata IN GUJARAT, INDIA Akshit R. SUTHAR, Jagruti Y. RATHOD, Ishani B. PATEL, Deepa J. GAVALI, Jayendra LAKHMAPURKAR Gujarat Ecology Society, Synergy House, Subhanpura, Vadodara 390023, Gujarat, India e-mail: [email protected] (Received 18th March 2017, accepted 21th May 2017) Abstract: Three species of otter are found in India, out of them only smooth coated otter Lutrogale perspicillata is reported in Gujarat. An extensive literature review was carried out to understand the historical distributions of species, to record current distribution and status; some potential sites and habitat were identified through detail survey. Available literature indicated presence of Otter in 11 different sites distributed in Central, south and north Gujarat. However, present distribution is restricted to Mahi, Narmada and Purna Rivers. Different direct and indirect observation methods including direct sighting, observing trails, tracks and burrows were applied. Survey along the Purna River indicated presence of burrows and direct sightings were reported. However in-depth study is required to ascertain the exact population of otter and threats to the species. Habitat fragmentation, lack of awareness and deficiency of baseline data on status, distribution and ecology of species is constraint of its conservation in Gujarat. Some long term monitoring, habitat restoration and awareness programs to involving relevant stakeholders should be initiated to ensure the survival of species in Gujarat. Key Words: Smooth coated otter, Gujarat, Distribution, Conservation INTRODUCTION Otters form a distinct group within the mammalian family Mustelidae and are grouped into sub-family Lutrinae (Sivasothi, 1995).
