  • RAINFALL RUNOFF MODELING of PUNPUN RIVER BASIN USING ANN –A CASE STUDY Subha Sinha Asst
    International Journal of Research in Engineering and Social Sciences ISSN 2249-9482, Impact Factor: 5.343, Volume 5 Issue 5, May2015 Website: www.indusedu.org RAINFALL RUNOFF MODELING OF PUNPUN RIVER BASIN USING ANN –A CASE STUDY Subha Sinha Asst. Professor, Dept. of Civil Engineering, B.I.T. Mesra, Patna Campus, Patna V. Singh Professor, N.I.T., Patna Campus M. P. Jakhanwal Professor, ABESIT, Noida ABSTRACT In this paper, rainfall-runoff models of Punpun river basin have been developed using the ANN Technique. Punpun River carries huge water during monsoon and discharges in the river Ganga at Fatuha in downstream of Patna. Some part of this basin is inundated during monsoon, which creates lot of problems to the people who live nearby. This monsoon water may be utilized in the lean season by conserving it on the upstream side of the River, Punpun. Keeping this in view, this study has been carried out. For this purpose a three-layered feed forward network structure with back propagation algorithm was used to train the ANN model. The monthly and seasonal rainfall and runoff data from 1990 to 2010 of Punpun river basin has been considered in this study. The runoff data have been considered at Sripalpur gauging site. Performance evaluation of the model has been carried out using statistical parameters. Two sets of data have been used to make several combination of year keeping in view the highest peaks of hydrographs. It was found that the first set of data gave better result than second set of data. The study also demonstrates the applicability of ANN approach in developing effective non-linear models of Rainfall-Runoff process without the need to explicitly representing the internal hydraulic structure of the Punpun basin.

  • CHAPTER II Environment a I) the River Son a Small Stream Which
    CHAPTER II Environment a i) The River Son The river Son, (Sanskrit - Sona, red, crimson) a large river of Northern India rises from the Maikal range—its nominal source located at Amarkantak hill is called Sonbhadra or more commonly Sonmunda • It runs first north and then east and joins the Ganges ten miles above Binapore, after a course of about 792 Kms. A. Origin A small stream which falls down vertically from some 76 metres, is pointed out by the local people as the 3on. However, this belief does not appear convincing. The stream Which is designated as the Son really falls into a small river which flows between Pendra and Amar- kantak and is a tributary of the great Mahanadi. Legenis also explain its disappearance after falling from the hill by saying that it flows underground up to the place^ where 1. Luard, C»5,, and Prasad, Janki, Rewah State Gazetteer 2. The Imperial Gazett-er of fndia. Vol.XXITI, p. 76 3. ARA3I.« Vol, VII, p. 235 4. Ihi-i., p. 235 it re-emerges. In fact the source of this river is at fhe Sonmunda— where it is seen, between Pendra and Kenda. Here is a long, narrow valley which starts about two miles south of the place where the present Pcndra-Amarkantak road crosses the valley* This valley 5s marshy. At the junction of the valley and the road is a small tank (locally named bauli) of green water. This is regarded as the source of the Son, though really the line of marshy pools come from a long distance^.

The Landsat-8 satellite system has long term data archives and can be used to assess the land cover changes in the landscape to provide information to support future urban planning. In this paper an attempt has been made to studies on land use and land cover of lower Sone basin. The study was carried out through Remote Sensing and GIS. Landsat-8 imagery of 2015. The value of elevation varies from 17–599 m in the study area. In the present study, threshold values of 10% for Land use class, 10% for Soil class and 10% for Slope class are considered, resulting in formation of 158 HRUs in the study area spread over 37 subbasins. The study area was classified water (0.58%), Forest-mixed (5.50%), Sugarcane (5.41%), Rice (79.69%), Tomato (6.23%), Corn (1.53%) and Pine (1.06%).

Preface National Rural Health Mission was introduced to undertake architectural corrections in the public Health System of India. District health action plan is an integral aspect of National Rural Health Mission. District Health Action Plans are critical for achieving decentralisation, interdepartmental convergence, capacity building of health system and most importantly facilitating people’s participation in the health system’s programmes. District Health Action Planning provides opportunity and space to creatively design and utilise various NRHM initiatives such as flexi –financing, Rogi Kalyan Samiti, Village Health and Sanitation Committee to achieve our goals in the socio-cultural context of Patna. The National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) is a comprehensive health programme launched by Government of India to bring about architectural corrections in the health care delivery systems of India. The NRHM seeks to address existing gaps in the national public health system by introducing innovation, community orientation and decentralisation. The mission aims to provide quality health care services to all sections of society, especially for those residing in rural areas, women and children, by increasing the resources available for the public health system, optimising and synergising human resources, reducing regional imbalances in the health infrastructure, decentralisation and district level management of the health programmes and community participation as well as ownership of the health initiatives.

  • Evaluation of Hydrogeology of the Lower Son Valley Based on Remote Sensing Data
    Journal of Geographic Information System, 2010, 2, 220-227 doi:10.4236/jgis.2010.24031 Published Online October 2010 (http://www.SciRP.org/journal/jgis) Evaluation of Hydrogeology of the Lower Son Valley Based on Remote Sensing Data Manas Banerjee1*, Debolin Bhattacharya1, Hriday Narain Singh1, Daya Shanker2 1Department of Geophysics, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India 2Department of Earthquake Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, Roorkee, India E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received July 31, 2010; revised September 2, 2010; accepted September 8, 2010 Abstract Remote sensing, one of the most important reconnaissance and feature identifying tools generally applied for surface and groundwater investigation, was used for water resources mapping for the lower Son Valley in this study. The mapping was done with the help of Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) satellite imagery IRS-LISS- 1-B1 for January 29, 1991 obtained during the day transit time. The area under study comprises adjoining parts of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar states of India and extends over the seven districts, namely Bhojpur, Rohtas, Patna, Jahanabad, Aurangabad, Ballia and Chapra. Geology of the study area is quite complex, tectonically disturbed and shows four major cycles of depositions after erosions during last one billion years (since Cre- taceous). Two lineaments mapped by GSI (Geological Survey of India) in western side of river Son in the Bhojpur district can also be identified by the satellite imagery. In the present study, apart from these linea- ments, two new lineaments have been investigated, which run almost parallel to river Ganga in northwest parts of the area in Ballia district.
