Mumbai Is Expanding Exponentially in Terms of Population As Well As Employment Opportunities Mumbai is expanding exponentially in terms of population as well as employment opportunities. According to the Regional Plan of MMR, the population of Mumbai Metropolitan Region has reached a staggering 22 million in the year 2011 as compared to 17 million in year 2001. While decadal growth in population in the island city over 1991-2001 was recorded at 4.79%, the suburbs recorded a decadal growth rate of about 19%. All additional population in Greater Mumbai is mainly concentrated in the western and eastern suburbs. In the north- west part of MMR, there is a mass of land which is peninsular in shape separated from the main land by a wide creek known as Manori - Gorai creek. To its west is Arabian sea, this peninsula is approx. ___________sq km and contains many villages such as Manori, Gorai, Uttan and Dongri. Vast part of peninsula is low lying and covered with mangroves, there is hill range along its western edge. This peninsula cons the only contains some of the famous sea beaches as well as large number of resorts, these are the most popular holiday destinations of Mumbai. However the peninsula is is connected to main land only in north, which is the only accessible road connection. However there are two water ferry connections are at Gorai-Borivali and other at Marve-Manori. MMRDA has prepared the Development plan for Gorai-Uttan, Notified area in which the Gorai Creek Bridge is a recommendation to connect Gorai area with Borivali (main land). There is no direct vehicular connectivity from Mumbai to Gorai creek. A lengthy detour of precisely 28.8 Km is required if one has to reach here. The Global Vipassana Pagoda is a Meditation Hall near Gorai, North-West of Mumbai, The pagoda is to serve as a monument of peace and harmony. The Global Vipassana Pagoda has been built out of gratitude to the Buddha, his teaching and the community of monks practicing his teaching. This unique monument attracts more than 3000 visitors during week days and 10000-15000 visitors during weekends. Presently approximately 8.0 lakh visitors come from all over the world to visit Pagoda.70% of visitors come from Borivali site using Esselworld jetty to reach Pagoda. Visitors have to wait in long queue for about 2 to 3 hours sometime to get in to ferry. Another route is from Bhayandar which is around 40 km distance and time consuming and expensive. There is another tourist attraction in this area known as Esselworld and water kingdom where number of tourists from Mumbai, Thane and other parts of Maharashtra use to visit in weekends to enjoy the rides. In addition to this there are so many Resorts at the beaches which make this peninsula most attractive place in the nearby vicinity. To mitigate the above difficulties by visitors to Pagoda, MMRDA intend to carry out the detailed study of the construction of proposed Bridge across Borivali Creek and subsequent development of road network connectivity to Global Pagoda. The total length of the proposed bridge will be around 550 m approximately and will consist of approximately 5.00 Kms of approach roads and development of road connectivity to Global Pagoda. MMRDA intends to carry out the detailed study of the construction of proposed Bridge across Borivali Creek and subsequent development of approach road network connectivity. .

  • Draft Report on the Study of Lakes on Mumbai
    Draft report on the Study of Lakes on Mumbai. 22nd March, 2009 Project team Dr. Goldin Quadros Ms. Gauri Gurav Field Team Mr. Vishal Rasal Mr. Dilip Shenai Mr. Kaustubh Bhagat. World Wide Fund for Nature – India, Maharashtra State Office 204 National Insurance Building, Dr. D.N. Road, Fort Mumbai 400 001. Introduction It is well known that Mumbai city is comprised of seven islands till 1857. Gradually with invasion the islands were merged by the invaders and now the entire city is one big island. The island city has a rich heritage of natural resources like the forests, lakes mangroves, etc. The city in the past was self sufficient in terms of the basic amenities like housing, food, water, electricity it provided to its inhabitants. However with growing population and pollution the city is now adding to the pressure on the adjacent districts for its water and electricity requirements. It is common knowledge that Mumbai has three lakes i.e. Tulsi, Powai and Vihar that used to provide water to Mumbai residents. Very few actually know that the city is blessed with many more in its BMC jurisdiction. These lakes are either polluted by human sewage or industrial effluents and have remained neglected with increasing urbanization. With depleting forests and water resources it is about time that the existing lakes are given a chance to serve the society again. How do we define lakes? There is considerable uncertainty about defining the difference between lakes and ponds. For example, limnologists have defined lakes as waterbodies which are simply a larger version of a pond or which have wave action on the shoreline, or where wind induced turbulence plays a major role in mixing the water column.

  • Study of Housing Typologies in Mumbai
    HOUSING TYPOLOGIES IN MUMBAI CRIT May 2007 HOUSING TYPOLOGIES IN MUMBAI CRIT May 2007 1 Research Team Prasad Shetty Rupali Gupte Ritesh Patil Aparna Parikh Neha Sabnis Benita Menezes CRIT would like to thank the Urban Age Programme, London School of Economics for providing financial support for this project. CRIT would also like to thank Yogita Lokhande, Chitra Venkatramani and Ubaid Ansari for their contributions in this project. Front Cover: Street in Fanaswadi, Inner City Area of Mumbai 2 Study of House Types in Mumbai As any other urban area with a dense history, Mumbai has several kinds of house types developed over various stages of its history. However, unlike in the case of many other cities all over the world, each one of its residences is invariably occupied by the city dwellers of this metropolis. Nothing is wasted or abandoned as old, unfitting, or dilapidated in this colossal economy. The housing condition of today’s Mumbai can be discussed through its various kinds of housing types, which form a bulk of the city’s lived spaces This study is intended towards making a compilation of house types in (and wherever relevant; around) Mumbai. House Type here means a generic representative form that helps in conceptualising all the houses that such a form represents. It is not a specific design executed by any important architect, which would be a-typical or unique. It is a form that is generated in a specific cultural epoch/condition. This generic ‘type’ can further have several variations and could be interestingly designed /interpreted / transformed by architects.

  • Characteristics of Diatom Communities Epiphytic on Brown Algae Padinagymnospora (Kutzing) Sonder, from Central West Coast of India
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064 ResearchGate Impact Factor (2018): 0.28 | SJIF (2018): 7.426 Characteristics of Diatom Communities Epiphytic on Brown Algae Padinagymnospora (Kutzing) Sonder, from Central West Coast of India Vikrant A. Kulkarni1, Dr. Sandesh P. Jagdale2 1Department of Botany, Dapoli Urban Bank Senior Science College, Dapoli, Maharashtra, 415 712, India Email: kulkarnivikrant6[at]gmail.com 2The Principal, Dapoli Urban Bank Senior Science College, Dapoli, Maharashtra, 415 712, India Email: spjagdale[at]gmail.com Abstract: Epiphytic diatoms among marine microalgae are of special interest for their environmental, biochemical and biotechnological applications. However, seaweeds particularly from the tropics have remained unexplored for their epiphytic flora. Diatom floras associated with Padinagymnospora were evaluated for their community structure. Diatom communities were highly diversified and were represented by 53 species, observing dominant genera Navicula, Rhizosolenia, Nitzschia, Grammatophora and Caloneis from relatively less or non-polluted localities. Composition from polluted areas typically supported one community hypothesis, with dominance of Biddulphia and Licmophora. Species diversity was found to be inversely related with nutrient concentrations in ambient waters. The present study proved that epiphytic diatoms on seaweeds could serve as reliable ecological indicators. Keywords: Epiphytic Diatoms, Seaweeds, Padinagymnospora, Ecology, Bioindicators 1. Introduction Padinagymnospora, one of the predominant Phaeophyta species from the tropics, is particularly dominant along Seaweeds form a major source of organic matter in near Indian coast and has an extended growing season of about shore waters, and harbor various kinds of associated and 7 – 8 months (Dhargalkar et al., 2001). It is generally epiphytic biota (Chemello and Milazzo, 2002; Ranjitham found in mid-intertidal zones, along rocky shores and rock et al., 2008).

  • Geochemical Assessment of Metal Concentrations in Mangrove Sediments Along Mumbai Coast, India
    World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology International Journal of Geological and Environmental Engineering Vol:6, No:1, 2012 Geochemical Assessment of Metal Concentrations in Mangrove Sediments along Mumbai Coast, India Lina Fernandes, G. N. Nayak and D. Ilangovan Abstract—Two short sediment cores collected from mangrove Maharashtra, one of the important coastal states of India, is areas of Manori and Thane creeks along Mumbai coast were analysed endowed with unique mangrove diversity spread all along its for sediment composition and metals (Fe, Mn, Cu, Pb, Co, Ni, Zn, Cr 720 km coastline, distributed in about 55 estuaries in five and V). The statistical analysis of Pearson correlation matrix proved districts. Rapid developments like housing, industrialization that there is a significant relationship between metal concentration and finer grain size in Manori creek while poor correlation was and increasing population in and around Mumbai have observed in Thane creek. Based on the enrichment factor, the present resulted into degradation of most of the mangroves. In the metal to background metal ratios clearly reflected maximum present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the enrichment of Cu and Pb in Manori creek and Mn in Thane creek. mangrove sediments of Manori and Thane creek with an aim Geoaccumulation index calculated indicate that the study area is to determine the concentration as well as the vertical unpolluted with respect to Fe, Mn, Co, Ni, Zn and Cr in both the distribution pattern of selected metals in sediment and, to cores while moderately polluted with Cu and Pb in Manori creek. Based on contamination degree, both the core sediments were found understand the degree of anthropogenic influence on metal to be considerably contaminated with metals.
