K. Puram, New Delhi-110066 FOREWORD Salinity is a significant challenge and poses risks to sustainable development of Coastal regions of India. If left unmanaged, salinity has serious implications for water quality, biodiversity, agricultural productivity, supply of water for critical human needs and industry and the longevity of infrastructure. The Coastal Salinity has become a persistent problem due to ingress of the sea water inland. This is the most significant environmental and economical challenge and needs immediate attention. The coastal areas are more susceptible as these are pockets of development in the country. Most of the trade happens in the coastal areas which lead to extensive migration in the coastal areas. This led to the depletion of the coastal fresh water resources. Digging more and more deeper wells has led to the ingress of sea water into the fresh water aquifers turning them saline. The rainfall patterns, water resources, geology/hydro-geology vary from region to region along the coastal belt.

MESSAGE The Kerala State Biodiversity Board in association with the Biodiversity Management Committees - which exist in all Panchayats, Municipalities and Corporations in the State - had conducted a rapid Impact Assessment of floods and landslides on the State’s biodiversity, following the natural disaster of 2018. This assessment has laid the foundation for a recovery and ecosystem based rejuvenation process at the local level. Subsequently, as a follow up, Universities and R&D institutions have conducted 28 studies on areas requiring attention, with an emphasis on riverine rejuvenation. I am happy to note that a compilation of the key outcomes are being published.

Joshi, Kumbakonam G. Sivaramakrishnan and K. Sankaran Unni International Water Management IWMI is a Future Harvest Center Institute supported by the CGIAR Research Reports IWMI’s mission is to improve water and land resources management for food, livelihoods and nature. In serving this mission, IWMI concentrates on the integration of policies, technologies and management systems to achieve workable solutions to real problems—practical, relevant results in the field of irrigation and water and land resources. The publications in this series cover a wide range of subjects—from computer modeling to experience with water user associations—and vary in content from directly applicable research to more basic studies, on which applied work ultimately depends. Some research reports are narrowly focused, analytical and detailed empirical studies; others are wide-ranging and synthetic overviews of generic problems. Although most of the reports are published by IWMI staff and their collaborators, we welcome contributions from others. Each report is reviewed internally by IWMI’s own staff and Fellows, and by external reviewers. The reports are published and distributed both in hard copy and electronically (www.iwmi.org) and where possible all data and analyses will be available as separate downloadable files. Reports may be copied freely and cited with due acknowledgment.

Kochi, Dr. P. SERALATHAN June, 1992 (Supervising Teacher) Reader, Marine Geology Division School of Marine Sciences Cochin University of Science and Technology . Kochi - 16 Preface WThe Story of Ganga from her source to the sea, from old times to new, is the story of India's civilization and culture- Jawaharlal Nehru Ri vers and estuaries have been the foci of civilization from the dawn of recorded history or long before. Much of the materials released during natural crustal weathering have been carried to the ocean by various geological agents such as rivers, wind, glaciers etc., of which rivers alone transport about 90% of the total sediment flux annually. However, all the sediments borne off by rivers seldom reach the sea as considerable quantity is detained in the estuarine and the other near shore environments.

The report is prepared mostly on the basis of available information in different sectors. The survey report reveals the existing industrial scenario of the district and it mainly aims to unveil the potentially disused areas of the industry in Ernakulam. We hope this document will provide guidance for those who need to identify various potential sources/ sectors of industry and thereby can contribute industrial development of the district, and the state. I hereby acknowledge the services rendered by all Managers, Assistant District Industries Officers , Industries Extension Officers ,Statistical Wing and other officers of this office ,for their sincere effort and whole hearted co- operation to make this venture a success within the stipulated time. I am grateful to all the officers of other departments who contributed valuable suggestions and information to prepare this report.

RAMANUJAN Department of Zoology, Sree Narayana College, Nattika 680 566, Thrissur, Kerala, India Key words : Ithikkara river, Physico-chemical characteristics, Dry season, Wet season ABSTRACT Ithikkara river was comparatively unpolluted rivers of the Kerala State, without any major industry in its bank. The present study was carried out to evaluate the water quality scenario of the Ithikkara river. Seasonal and annual average values of surface and bottom water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, free carbon dioxide, salinity, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate and silicate, and averages of transparency and velocity of flow were observed from six different stations are presented in this paper. Observations revealed that physico-chemical characteristics were almost at the optimum level..
