    FOREWORD Groundwater is an essential component of the environment and economy. It sustains the flow in our rivers and plays an important role in maintaining the fragile ecosystems. The groundwater dependence of agrarian states like Karnataka is high. Recent studies indicate that 26 percent of the area of Karnataka State is under over exploited category and number of blocks is under critical category. In view of the growing concerns of sustainability of ground water sources, immediate attention is required to augment groundwater resources in stressed areas. Irrigated agriculture in the state is putting additional stress on the groundwater system and needs proper management of the resources. Central Ground Water Board is providing all technical input for effective management of ground water resources in the state. The groundwater scenario compiled on administrative divisions gives a better perspective for planning various ground water management measures by local administrative bodies. With this objective, Central Ground Water Board is publishing the revised groundwater information booklet for all the districts of the state. I do appreciate the efforts of Dr. K.Md.Najeeb, Regional Director and his fleet of dedicated Scientists of South Western Region, Bangalore for bringing out this booklet. I am sure these brochures will provide a portrait of the groundwater resources in each district for planning effective management measures by the administrators, planners and the stake holders. Dr. S. C. Dhiman PREFACE Ground water contributes to about eighty percent of the drinking water requirements in the rural areas, fifty percent of the urban water requirements and more than fifty percent of the irrigation requirements of the nation.

It is to framework, improper sample size, different type of selection improve this situation that the study presented here is focused on evaluating the use of geospatial techniques in assessing the of crop, area measurement variation and non-sampling errors impact of rainfall and drought occurrence on crop growth and (like measurement area inaccuracy, field reporting condition and implication in crop insurance. inaccuracy, etc.).Hence geospatial approach for yield estimation is done. The study is aimed at understanding the different parameters that affect crop yield and to relate their behaviour MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY with the remotely sensed parameters such as Normalised Study area Difference Vegetative Index, Normalised Difference Drought The Study area is entire Shivamogga district. Shivamogga Index and Normalised Difference Moisture Index. The study district lies in Malnad region of the Western Ghats in was conducted in the Shivamogga district of Karnataka state.

    CONSERVATION AND SUSTAINABILITY MANAGEMENT OF FOREST IN SHIMOGA - NEED FOR POLICY INTERVENTIONS Sudarshan P. Bhat1, G.R. Rao1, Vishnu Mukri1, Bharath H. Aithal1, Vinay S.1, M.D. Subash Chandran1,3 and T.V. Ramachandra1,2,* 1Energy and Wetlands Research Group, Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore – 560012, India. 2Member, Western Ghats Task Force, Government of Karnataka, 3Member, Karnataka Biodiversity Board, Government of Karnataka *Corresponding author: [email protected] Forests are a precious gift of nature and need to be protected and managed for the sustained production of natural resources such as timber, firewood, industrial raw materials for making paper, rayon and minor forest produce like honey, wax, soap nut, medicinal plants etc. Forest ecosystems have an important bearing on the ecological security and people’s livelihood. These ecosystems preserve the physical features, minimize soil erosion, prevents floods, recharge groundwater sources, check the flow of subsoil water and help to maintain the productivity of cultivated lands. HISTORY OF FOREST MANAGEMENT IN SHIMOGA The Western Ghats is one among the 34 global hotspots of biodiversity and it lies in the western part of peninsular India in a series of hills stretching over a distance of 1,600 km from north to south and covering an area of about 1,60,000 sq.km. It harbours very rich flora and fauna and there are records of over 4,000 species of flowering plants with 38% endemics, 330 butterflies with 11% endemics, 156 reptiles with 62% endemics, 508 birds with 4% endemics, 120 mammals with 12% endemics, 289 fishes with 41% endemics and 135 amphibians with 75% endemics (http://wgbis.ces.iisc.ernet.in/biodiversity/pubs/ces_tr/TR122/index.htm).

Abstract We present a description of the avifauna recorded during a survey of the Sharavathy area, central Western Ghats, Karnataka. The survey was carried out between November 2008 and March 2010. The major habitats available in the landscape are described along with a brief note on important bird records from the area. A total of 215 species were sighted during the survey of which 15 are endemic to the Western Ghats. Four ‘Near-threatened,’ and one ‘Vulnerable’ species, as per IUCN threat category, were recorded. A complete checklist of species recorded from the area is also given along with their respective relative abundance levels recorded during the survey. Introduction The Western Ghats are a “biodiversity hot spot” characterised by high diversity and endemicity (Myers et al. 2000). The altitudinal and rainfall gradients have created an array of habitat types all along the ghats, from dry deciduous forests in the north, to wet evergreen and stunted montane forests in the south. The geographically isolated evergreen forests of this region have many bird species in common with north-eastern India and the greater Oriental Region.
