  • Assessing Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Models for Predicting Groundwater Quality in a River Basin of South India
    sustainability Article Assessing Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Models for Predicting Groundwater Quality in a River Basin of South India M. Annie Jenifer 1, Madan Kumar Jha 2,* and Amina Khatun 2 1 VIT School of Agricultural Innovations and Advanced Learning (VAIAL), Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT), Vellore 632014, India; [email protected] 2 AgFE Department, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kharagpur 721302, India; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: India is the largest consumer of groundwater in the world, and it suffers from a groundwa- ter crisis due to the overexploitation of groundwater and the deterioration of its quality at an alarming rate. Rapid urbanization, a growing population, and mismanagement are major driving forces be- hind these groundwater issues. Thus, increasing problems of water scarcity and water-quality deterioration threaten the sustainability of the water supply. This necessitates the development of novel approaches to assess prevailing groundwater quality scenarios at a large scale, which can help protect this vital freshwater resource from contamination. In this study, for the first time, the effectiveness of three Geographical Information System (GIS)-based Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) models (i.e., ‘Unit Weight’, ‘Rank Sum’, and ‘Analytic Hierarchy Process’) was explored for predicting groundwater quality in a river basin of Southern India. The seasonal concentrations of − − − + 2+ 2+ + 2− groundwater quality parameters, viz., Cl , TDS, TH, F , NO3 -N, Na , Mg , Ca ,K , and SO4 , Citation: Jenifer, M.A.; Jha, M.K.; were considered for generating their thematic layers. Each thematic layer was classified into suitable Khatun, A. Assessing Multi-Criteria feature classes based on the WHO guidelines for drinking water.

Journal of Engineering Research and Applications www.ijera.com ISSN : 2248-9622, Vol. 5, Issue 5, ( Part -3) May 2015, pp.108-117 RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS Landuse and Landcover Change Detection in Lalgudi Block, Tiruchirappalli District - Using Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques S. Balaselvakumar*, P. Sujatha and A. Ilanthirayan *Department of Geography, Periyar E.V.R. College (Autonomous), Tiruchirappalli - 620 023 ABSTRACT In this paper an attempt has been carried out mapping and analysis the landuse and landcover change detection in Lalgudi block of Tiruchirappalli district using remote sensing and GIS techniques. The total area of the study area is 272.2 sq.km. It is located in the central part of Tamil Nadu. Landuse and Landcover change detection maps were generated and classified into agriculture land, built-up land, fallow land, natural vegetation, river sand, water bodies, and scrub without scrub land for the year 1990, 2000 and 2010 based on NRSA classification. Each landuse and landcover has been changed positively and negatively for the three decades, especially agriculture land, sandy area, natural vegetation and fallow land, which is about 19.62%, 6.56%, 13.16% and 14.91 percentages respectively.
