  • Nagapatinam District : Environmental Profile
    NAGAPATINAM DISTRICT : ENVIRONMENTAL PROFILE In this chapter, the basic facts of the study area have been given with the view to have area awareness about the study area. 3.1 Geographical Location of the District The Nagapattinam district lies on the east coast to the south of Cuddalore district and another part of the Nagapattinam district lies to the south of Karaikkal and Tiruvarur districts. Its northern boundary is about 75 Km southwards from the Head Quarters of the Cuddalore district. Thanjavur district and Tiruvarur district flank it on the west and on the south and east it is bordered by the Bay of Bengal. The district lies between 10.25and 11.40North Longitude and 7649and 80.01East longitude. The general geological formation of the district is plain and coastal. The Cauvery and its offshoots are the principal rivers. Rising in the Coorg Mountains, this river bifurcates about nine miles at the west of Trichy into two branches, of which the northern one takes the name of Coleroen and the southern one retains that of the Cauvery. All along the course of Cauvery and its dis-tributaries, on both the banks numerous narrow strips of river porombokes lands called Paduagais that are cut up by countless patta lands. These strips ranging in width from about 3 metres to 100 meters are made up of bits of lands. Even though the Padugais and Poromboke lands are very dry they are very fertile. Flood banks of Cauvery and its dis-tributaries are away from the watercourses in the upper reaches here the river is wide and closer in the lower reaches and the river become narrow gradually.

  • Physiochemical Characteristics of Groundwater and Its Suitability For
    International Journal of ChemTech Research CODEN (USA): IJCRGG ISSN : 0974-4290 Vol.6, No.14, pp 5698-5708, Nov-Dec 2014 Hydrochemical Characteristics of Groundwater in Mayiladuthurai Block of Nagapattinam District, Tamil Nadu K. Ramesh and K. Srinithi Centre for Water Resources, Dept of Civil Engineering, Anna University, Chennai – 600 025, India. *Corres.author: [email protected] Abstract : Hydrochemical study was carried out in Mayiladuthurai block of Nagapattinam district in Tamil Nadu with the objective of understanding the suitability of groundwater quality for domestic and irrigation purposes. Groundwater samples are collected from 25 locations during Pre-monsoon (August 2013) and Post- monsoon (January 2014) seasons and analyzed for various physico-chemical parameters. The study reveals that groundwater samples are more or less within prescribed limits as per standards for irrigation and drinking purposes. The spatial variation of groundwater quality parameters was plotted using 3D fieldpro software. To know suitability of water for domestic, the parameters are within the permissible limit at many locations, few placed exceed the limit. High TH and EC in a few places identify the unsuitability of groundwater for drinking 2+ - 2+ + - + - and irrigation. The groundwater is mainly Ca HCO3 type, mixed Ca Na HCO3 type and Na HCO3 type. Gibb’s diagram reveals that most of the groundwater samples fall in the rock dominance field. Wilcox diagram indicate that majority of samples falls in excellent to good and permissible to doubtful. The samples plotted on U.S. salinity diagram indicate that groundwater of the region is medium to high saline and low alkaline in nature. Most of the groundwater samples were suitable for irrigation, except in a few locations.
