  • Analysis of Watersheds in Gandaki Province, Nepal Using QGIS
    TECHNICAL JOURNAL Vol 1, No.1, July 2019 Nepal Engineers' Association, Gandaki Province ISSN : 2676-1416 (Print) Pp.: 16-28 Analysis of Watersheds in Gandaki Province, Nepal Using QGIS Keshav Basnet*, Er. Ram Chandra Paudel and Bikash Sherchan Infrastructure Engineering and Management Program Department of Civil and Geomatics Engineering Pashchimanchal Campus, Institute of Engineering Tribhuvan University, Nepal *Email: [email protected] Abstract Gandaki province has the good potentiality of hydro-electricity generation with existing twenty- nine hydro-electricity projects. Since the Province is rich in water resources, analysis of watersheds needs to be done for management, planning and identification of water as well as natural resources. GIS offers integration of spatial and no spatial data to understand and analyze the watershed processes and helps in drawing a plan for integrated watershed development and management. The Digital Elevation Model (DEM) available on the NASA-Earth data has been taken as a primary data for morphometric analysis of watershed in Gandaki Province using QGIS. Delineation of watershed was conducted from a DEM by computing the flow direction and using it in the Watershed tool. Necessary fill sink correction was made before proceeding to delineation. A raster representing the direction of flow was created using Flow Direction tool to determine contributing area. Flow accumulation raster was created from flow direction raster using Flow Accumulation Tool. A point- based method has been used to delineate watershed for each selected point. The selected point may be an outlet, a gauge station or a dam. The annual rainfall data from ground meteorological stations has been used in QGIS to generate rainfall map for the study of rainfall pattern in the province and watersheds using IDW Interpolation method.

It is highly dependent on the catchment area, topography, slope of the catchment terrain, rainfall, temperature, and soil characteristics. This study was designed to evaluate the key hydraulic parameters of sediment transport for Kali Gandaki River at Setibeni, Syangja, located about 5 km upstream from a hydropower dam. Key parameters, including the bed shear stress (τb), specific stream power (!), and flow velocity (v) associated with the maximum boulder size transport, were determined throughout the years, 2003 to 2011, by using a derived lower boundary equation. Clockwise hysteresis loops of the average hysteresis index of +1.59 were developed and an average of 40.904 12.453 Megatons (Mt) suspended sediment have been transported annually from the higher ± Himalayas to the hydropower reservoir.

Background Ghiring rural municipality in Tanahun district, Gandaki Province, is created by combining previous 5 VDCs namely Gajarkot, Sabhung Bhagawotipur, Ghiring Sundhara, Ramjakot and Majhkot. The rural municipality, with an area of 126 sq.km. and population of 19,318 (census 2011), is located at an altitudinal extent between 300m to 1000m. The rural municipality aspires to promote tourism by constructing an artificial lake (Ghumaune Tal) that could help bring together the development opportunities of the entire rural municipality. The Ghumaune Tal is presumed to be a new and novel tourism product for the Ghiring rural municipality and a source of unique attraction for tourists, both domestic and foreign. The idea is to create a lake by impounding the waters of the through the construction of a dam that would also use for irrigation purposes. The rural municipality therefore seeks a team of consultants to prepare the DPR of the proposed lake (Ghumaune Tal) with geotechnical and initial environmental examination. The DPR will be augmented with a comprehensive tourism development and management plan. The consultants will also provide inputs for the spatial planning of the valley from the perspective of the resident population as well as the tourists. 2. Objectives
