It is divided in two parts: annotated bibliography and bibliography. Annotated bibliography is provided with the summary of the research work carried by the researcher. NIDM acknowledges the valuable support from all resource persons and institutes for providing technical inputs on the document and reviewing the same at various stages of preparation and publication. ii Preface The contemplation of available literature or research work carried out on any subject facilitates in understanding that particular subject. This document is equipped in an attempt to provide the relevant research works done on landslide hazard in India. Considerable literature and research work are available concerning to Indian landslides. The reason of designing this document on landslide is the severity of the hazard in India. Landslide hazard along with thousands of deaths in a year also cost huge monetary loss. The impacts of this hazard are long termed. Its long termed impacts include disruption in the communication network and economy, hardship for the local population, population displacement and negative effects on the natural environment. The document is consists of annotated bibliography and bibliography of the effort done by different researchers. Many international renowned citation styles of the research papers are available like, American Psychological Association (APA), Chicago, Turabian, Modern Language Association (MLA) etc. Here APA citation style1 has been used to refer the research work of the author(s). The annotated bibliography provides brief summary of the available research work carried out on Indian landslides. The sequence in which the annotated bibliography is presented is as follows: author(s) name, year, title of the research, publication details, link of the source and a brief summary about the research. On the other hand bibliography comprises author(s) name, year, title of the research and publication details. The sources of collected literatures are different international and national journals and conferences. The aim of this documentation is to systematically organize a source of previous literature and research work on landslides for the interested researcher for their further research. It can also be helpful for those who have interest in knowing about the landslides of their particular areas. 1 Ex: Author(s) last name, Initials. (Year). Title of article. Title of periodical, vol, page, publisher. iii Acknowledgement I take this opportunity to express my profound gratitude and deep regards to Dr. Satendra, Executive Director, National Institute of Disaster Management, New Delhi for his kind encouragement for preparing the document on “A Selected Annotated Bibliography and Bibliography on Landslides in India”.

Landslides are among those hazards which now and then hammer the Indian Territory. India has a sensational record of catastrophes due to landslides. To name few such disastrous events are Mapla landslide, Alaknanda tragedy of 1970, Kaliasaur landslide, 2010 Cloudburst led flash mudslides in Leh of J&K etc. Many researchers had put their thinking cap in order to be familiar with Indian landslide. Ample research work has been carried out by different researchers on Indian landslides but hardship is that their work is not assembled in any one database which can facilitate current and future researchers to track these literatures. Therefore, its time to organize such a database source which is compilation of the research work conducted on the Indian landslides. The inventory of annotated bibliography and bibliography on landslides in India, commenced at National Institute of Disaster Management is an attempt to provide users a database source of available literature/research on the landslide hazard. The document presents annotated bibliography and bibliography of the Indian researcher’s work on Indian landslides. It includes research papers/articles published in journals and conference proceedings. 1 2 About Landslides Landslide (Fig 2.1) is a collective term used to describe various types of movement of the slope forming materials i.e. rock, earth, artificial materials or a combination of these materials. It can be delineated as “downward movement in the slope under the influence of gravity with a velocity ranging from very slow to very rapid”. Landslides are not an isolated phenomenon, they can occur virtually anywhere. Orthodox philosophy about landslide was that it only occurs in steep slopes but with passage of time and research it has been noticed that it can influence gentle slope Fig 2.1: Block diagram of landslide and its features Image source: http://www.bau.hsr.ch/(S(wpsr3wz4juhrmo45amnsljyf))/Print.aspx?Page=Characterizing_a_landslide too. One can experience this hazard on land as well as under the water. To understand landslides they are classified in many ways. The criteria used in classification includes, type of movement, type of material, rate of movement, activity, age of movement, morphological characteristics, size/scale etc. The most adopted classification is that of Varnes and Cruden of 1996 which is a modified version of Varnes’s 1978 landslide classification. This is based on two attributes, type of movement and type of material. Fall A fall starts with the detachment of soil or rock from a steep slope along a surface on which little or no shear displacement takes place. The material then descends mainly through the air by falling, bouncing, or

Sundriyal and Navin Juyal Uttarakhand Himalaya in general and wide at the summit1,2. It was estimated (district surveyor of Garhwal), helped to Alaknanda and Bhagirathi valleys in par- that the lake would have taken at least a meticulously estimate the magnitude of ticular have experienced one of the worst year to fill.

Flash floods are common in the ple it, which would cause flash floods Birahi Ganga and Haridwar for real-time Himalaya, but the kind of destruction in the downstream till Haridwar. The monitoring and timely warning of the witnessed this time was unparalleled in untiring efforts of Pulford, the then flood. Around May 1894, pilgrim traffic recent history. Houses collapsed like a superintending engineer and his team, on the way to Kedarnath and Badrinath pack of cards and the roads and bridges particularly Pandit Hari Krishen Pant was diverted to the new pedestrian route swept away in the turbulent flood waters. Probably the worst causality of the cen- tury was the destruction of Kedarnath valley. According to the data published in various national dailies, nearly 4000 people were either killed or lost, 2232 houses were damaged, 1520 roads in dif- ferent parts of Garhwal were badly dam- aged and about 170 bridges have been washed away. According to economists, the tourism industry in Uttarakhand will suffer a loss of ~12,000 crore rupees, which is around 30% of the state’s GDP.

  • Hydrometer and Viscosity Cup Guide
    Hydrometers Do Work What Is Specific Gravity? Specific gravity of any solid or liquid substance is its weight compared with the weight of an equal bulk of pure water at 62 degrees F at sea level. Gases use an equal volume of pure air at 32 degrees F. There are three methods of determining the specific gravity of liquids: Hydrometer In which the specific gravity of the liquid tested is read as the scale division marking the liquid level on the stem. Bottle Method In which the specific gravity is the weight of liquid (slip) in a full bottle divided by the weight of water in a full bottle. Displacement Method In which specific gravity is the weight of liquid displaced by a body divided by the weight of an equal volume of water displaced by the same body. The first two methods are practical. The faster, easier method uses a hydrometer designed specifically for slip (see right). There are many different hydrometers. Slip should range between 1.78 to 1.75, the latter being the maximum amount of water in the body and the former the lesser amount. How To Get An Accurate Reading 1. Store hydrometer in water. This keeps slip from drying on the surface. A cut off two liter soft drink bottle is ideal. Remove and gently “squeegee” off excess water. 2. Immerse in freshly agitated slip to the stem readings. 3. Lift up, “squeegee” off excess slip. Hydrometer is now “wet coated” with slip, not with water, which would give a false reading. 4. Immerse bulb half way into slip before releasing.

  • Chapter-1 Introduction
    CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION 1.0 Background Lakhwar Project is a part of multipurpose scheme primarily a peaking power station on river Yamuna in the district of Dehradun in Uttarakhand. The scheme envisages construction of 204m high concrete dam on river Yamuna near Lohari village. The Multipurpose scheme also envisages construction of Vyasi HEP (Hathiari power station) downstream of Lakhwar HEP. The scheme also includes construction of a barrage at Katapathar about 3 Km downstream of Hathiari powerhouse station (Vyasi HEP) on river Yamuna. The inflow and stored water in Lakhwar and Vyasi reservoir after generation of power at Lakhwar underground power house and Hathiari power house will be balanced at Katapathar barrage for downstream use. As a result of regulated flow from the Katapathar barrage, it is also assessed that about 75 MU of additional energy would be generated from the existing downstream projects of Uttarakhand state such as Dhakrani, Dhalipur, Kulhal and Khara. The live storage of Lakhwar reservoir is estimated to be 330.66 MCum. The project was originally approved by planning commission with estimated cost of Rs. 140.97 crores in Jan, 1976 as multipurpose scheme. Environmental clearance was accorded to the project by MOE&F in Feb, 1987. The initial work of Lakhwar Vyasi Project was started in 1979 and three major contracts for construction of main civil works of the project were signed in July, 1987. Some construction works such as abutment stripping for Lakhwar dam, construction of 2 nos. diversion tunnels, part excavation of underground powerhouse, part excavation of tail race tunnel etc at Lakhwar site and abutment stripping for Vyasi dam, excavation of head race tunnel, diversion channel, part excavation of 1-1 surge shaft, pressure shaft, surface powerhouse, etc at Vyasi/ Hathiari site have been completed.
