    Studies on Floristic Diversity and its Importance of Pichavaram Mangrove Reserve Forest, Tamil Nadu D. C. Saini, Kamla Kulshrestha*, Shambhu Kumar, Deepak K. Gond and G.K.Mishra Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeobotany, 53 University Road, Lucknow, India *National Botanical Research Institute, Rana Pratap Marg, Lucknow, India Email: [email protected] Introduction The word "Mangrove" is considered to be a combination of the Portuguese word "Mangue" and the English word "grove". Mangroves are woody, specialized types of trees of the tropics that can live on the edge, where rainforests meet oceans occurring along the sheltered inter-tidal coastlines, mudflats, riverbanks in association with the brackish water margin between land and sea in tropical and subtropical areas. Mangroves have a very specialised adaptations that enable them to live in salty waters. Breathing roots allow them to survive in anaerobic sediments. Buttresses and above-ground roots enable them to grow in unstable 75% of its green cover within this century and about 90% mud flats. Their foliage removes excess salt from the sap, of the forest area is degrading (Krishnamurthy et al., and they conserve water to cope with periods of high 1995). Bearing this in mind, research was undertaken salinity. Their seeds are buoyant to allow them to during 2003-2004. disperse and establish themselves in new areas. Mangroves are salt-tolerant plants and the specific Pichavaram Mangrove Forest regions where these plants occur are termed as ‘mangrove ecosystem’. These are highly productive but The Study Area extremely sensitive and fragile. The area has already lost Pichavaram is located 51 km north east of 149 Chidambaram, in Cuddalore district, Tamil Nadu, abundance, Vegetative Cover at Pichavaram have been between latitude 11°20' to 11°30' north and longitudes demarcated in Six zones; Avicennia marina is dominant 79°45' to 79°55' east.

Research Scholar, Department of Harbour and Ocean Engineering, AMET University Plot No.135, East Coast Road, Kanathur, Chennai - 603112, Tamil Nadu, India *Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract: The 2004 Sumatra tsunami left a deep and dark footprint on coastal Cuddalore in south east India, which was one of the worst affected districts in the main land. Assessment of natural hazards typically relies on analysis of past occurrences of similar disaster events. Assessment of tsunami hazard to the Indian coast poses a scientific challenge because of the paucity of both historical events and data. However, construction of the tsunami hazard maps is the key step in tsunami risk assessment and forms the basis for evacuation and future land use planning along coastal areas. To this end, a set of inundation scenarios were built based on realistic tectonic sources that can generate tsunamis in the Indian Ocean. From the past historical records three earthquake sources have been identified and a hypothetical worst case scenario was also generated.

Previously, the State Planning Commission has published Human Development Report for 8 districts in the past during the period 2003-2008, which was very unique of its kind. The report provided a comprehensive view of the development status of the district in terms of Health, Education, Income, Employment etc. The report would be a useful tool for adopting appropriate development strategies and to address the gaps to bring equitable development removing the disparities. After the successful completion of the same, now the State Planning Commission has again initiated the process of preparation of Human Development Report based on the current status. The initiative of State Planning Commission is applaudable as this approach has enhanced the understanding of Human Development in a better spectrum.

  • Study of Evaluation of Groundwater in Gadilam Basin Using Hydrogeochemical and Isotope Data
    Study of evaluation of groundwater in Gadilam basin using hydrogeochemical and isotope data Prasanna M.V1,*, Chidambaram S2, Shahul Hameed A 3, and Srinivasamoorthy K2 1. School of Engineering and Science, Curtin University of Technology, Sarawak, Miri, Malaysia. 2. Department of Earth Sciences, Annamalai University, Annamalainagar, India. 3. Centre for Water Resources Development and Management, Kozhikode, Kerala, India. *Corresponding author’s email. [email protected] Abstract Gadilam river basin has gained its importance due to the presence of Neyveli Lignite open cast mines and other industrial complexes. It is also due to extensive depressurization of Cuddalore aquifer and bore wells for New Veeranam Scheme is constructed in the downstream of the basin. Geochemical indicators of groundwater were used to identify the chemical processes that control hydrogeochemsitry. Chemical parameters of groundwater such as pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total dissolved solids + + + + - (TDS), Sodium (Na ), Potassium (K ), Calcium (Ca ), Magnesium (Mg ), Bicarbonate (HCO3 ), Sulphate - - (SO4 ), Phosphate (PO4 ) and Silica (H4SiO4) were determined. Interpretation of hydrogeochemical data suggests that leaching of ions followed by weathering and anthropogenic impact controls the chemistry of the groundwater. Isotopic study reveals that recharge from meteoric source in sedimentary terrain and rock water interaction with significant evaporation prevails in hard rock region. Keywords: Groundwater, Water chemistry, Stable Isotopes, Thermodynamic stability, Saturation Index 1. Introduction Groundwater is a natural resource, which is being renewed by different process. Geochemical processes occurring within the groundwater and reactions with dissolved minerals have a profound effect on water quality. Hydrogeochemical composition of groundwater can indicate its origin and history of passage through underground materials, which water has been in contact.

The Pichavaram mangrove forest is rich mangrove diversity in Tamil Nadu. The present survey was conducted in the Pichavaram mangrove forest including Killai, Pichavaram and T.S. Pettai. Totally 25 species were recorded in the study period including 12 mangroves and 13 mangrove associated plants. In Mangroves, Avicennia and Rhizophora species were found to be dominant species in Pichavaram mangrove forest. Six dominant associate species were found such as Suaeda maritima, Suaeda monoica, Ipomoea pes-caprae and Sesuvium portulacastrum. Xylocarpus mekongensis is an endangered species and it was recorded in a very few. The information generated from this study will serve as a baseline to develop adaptive management strategies in anticipation of sea-level rise, setting of conservation priorities, monitor, deforestation and forest degradation, improve terrestrial carbon accounting and quantify the role of mangrove forests in saving lives and property from natural disasters such as tsunamis. Key words: Mangroves, Associates, Avicennia, Rhizophora, Conservation. 176 IJSIT (www.ijsit.com), Volume 7, Issue 2, March-April 2018 R. Ranganathan et al., IJSIT, 2018, 7(2), 176-182 INTRODUCTION Mangroves are among the most productive coastal ecosystems in the world (Kathiresan et al., 2001). They are confined to the tropics and subtropics, which dominate approximately 75% of the world’s coastline between 25° N and 25° S and are estimated to cover an area of 1.7 to 2.0× 105 km2 (Borges et al., 2003).
