Gross Domestic Product. Provisioning Services. Regulating Services ABSTRACT Valuation through the quantification goods and services aids in the wise use and prudent management of an estuarine ecosystem. The present study focusses on the valuation of goods and services from an estuary at Aghanashini, Uttara Kannada district, Karnataka. The provisioning services provided by this estuary is about 11,35,847 Rs/hectare/year, which highlights the significance of an estuarine ecosystem in sustaining livelihood of 6000 - 7500 families. The total economic value (provisioning, regulating, supporting and cultural services) of Aghanashini is 5 million Rs/hectare/year. This highlights the contributions by estuarine ecosystems in sustaining the economy of the district while supporting people’s livelihood. Quantification of ecosystem benefits would help in evolving appropriate strategies with the managerial decisions. This also emphasizes the need for green gross domestic product through incorporation of values of the natural goods in the national and regional accounting to ensure the sustainability of natural resources such as water, energy, land, etc. INTRODUCTION etc. between different ecosystems constitute the functional aspects of an ecosystem.

    Uttara Kannada District- Introduction 2013 LAND USE CHANGES WITH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF DEVELOPMENTAL PROJECTS IN UTTARA KANNADA DISTRICT Summary: Forest ecosystems in Uttara Kannada district have witnessed major transformations during the post-independence. Uttara Kannada district has the distinction of having highest forest cover among all districts of Karnataka. Land use analysis using temporal remote sensing data reveal distressing trend of deforestation in the district, evident from the reduction of evergreen - semi evergreen forest cover from 67.73% (1973) to 32.08% (2013). Taluk-wise analyses reveal similar trend for evergreen - semi evergreen forest cover during 1973 to 2013; Ankola (75.66 to 55.33%), Bhatkal (61.37 to 30.38%), Honnavar (70.63 to 35.71%), Karwar (72.26 to 59.70%), Kumta (62.89 to 29.38%), Siddapur (71.42 to 23.68), Sirsi (64.89 to 16.78), Supa (93.56 to 58.55%), Yellapur (75.28 to 18.98%), Haliyal (35.45 to 2.59%), Mundgod (2063 to 1.52). Forest cover has declined from 81.75 (1973) to 60.98% (2013) in the coastal zone, 91.45 (1973) to 59.14% (2013) in the Sahyadrian interior, and 69.26 (1973) to 16.76% (2013) in plains zone. Implementation of developmental activities without taking into account the ecological significance of ecosystems, services provided by them in meeting the livelihood of local population has resulted in the degradation of forests. These changes in the landscape structure (through large scale land use changes) have altered functional abilities of an ecosystem evident from lowered hydrological yield, disappearing perennial streams, higher instances of human –animal conflicts, declined ecosystem goods, etc.

  • Development of Sea Port at Tadadi, Karnataka
    DEVELOPMENT OF SEA PORT AT TADADI, KARNATAKA Karnataka, India - A Profile Karnataka, a State in the south of India, has been a pioneer state in industry with a distinction of a strong and vibrant industrial base. Karnataka is targeting an industrial growth rate of 12% per annum, with an increased emphasis on the expansion and growth of infrastructure sectors through private sector participation. Since ports are the trade gateways for a state, their ability to meet the increasing demands of a rapidly growing economy is crucial for addressing the rising import and export traffic. Currently there is one major port and two non-major ports that are operational in Karnataka. The major port at Mangalore, namely, New Mangalore Port Trust, currently caters to the cargo requirements of the southern districts of the state. Need for a Port on the West Coast Belekeri Tadadi The northern districts of the state, especially the Bellary–Hospet region produce large quantities of iron ore. The export potential of iron ore from this region is estimated at 30 million tones in 2010. Part of this iron ore is exported through the two non-major ports namely Karwar and Belekeri. However, bigger vessels cannot operate at these ports as the draft available is less. Further the capacity at these ports is also not adequate to cater to the iron ore export demand of this region. Thus, a port developed in the northern coastline of the state would cater to the districts of North Karnataka especially the iron-ore belt in Bellary - Hospet, thereby significantly improving the industrial advantage of the region.

Tain temple and deity is Lord Shiva, who is also known as Gokarna, India 2 Mahabhaleshwara. This temple houses what is believed to be original image of Lord Shiva's lingam. There are many other temples all over this small town. Ankola and Kumta on Highway 17 are the main towns near Gokarna. Gokarna is historically known as one of the seven important Hindu pilgrimage centers and is located on what was once unspoiled beach near the estuary of river Aghanashini with its palm trees, other colorful tropical fruit and flower trees. Of late due to the numbers of tourists the character of this town has changed. This town is no longer just a center of pilgrimage though massive numbers of devotees still visit the town for the purposes of offering prayers and worship to Lord Shiva. Due to its laid back unspoiled and rustic nature, many younger western tourists started visiting Gokarna about a decade ago.

We have included below three kinds of suggestions for your consideration. These relate to potential violations of the CRZ notification in the CZMP process; inaccuracies in the CZMPs and the inadequate process of public consultation. We are from Centre for Policy Research working in Environment Justice Program along Uttara Kannada coast. Our program workslegal empowerment of fishermen and coastal communities along the Uttara Kannada coast and we are working towards the implementation of CRZ law for the welfare of coastal communities.. We would like to convey our gratitude for initiating the preparation of CZMP maps. We believe updated version of CZMP maps after 2011 CRZ Notification is very important since HTL and Hazard lines have been changed from last two decades. Further, CZMP maps with ecological sensitive areas are essential for coastal conservation. We have seen all the maps and are well prepared as compare the earlier maps containing most of information as per the CRZ Notification 2011.
