International Journal of Advanced Scientific and Technical Research Issue 5 volume 7, Nov. –Dec. 2015 Available online on http://www.rspublication.com/ijst/index.html ISSN 2249-9954 Computation of Yield based on Weighted Normal Monsoon Rainfall for Kundu Sub-Basin of Pennar Basin R. Bhavani Associate Professor in Civil Engineering, JNTUA College of Engineering, Anantapur. E’mail ID : rb h avani 77@ yahoo.com ABSTRACT Kundu’ is one of the eight sub basins of Pennar basin having 8683 Sq. km of catchment area. Thirty four rain gauge stations located within and around the sub-basin are influencing the catchment area. Percentage areas of influence for various rain gauges were determined by drawing Theissen polygons for all the existing rain gauge stations. Normal monsoon rainfall values for all rain gauge stations were extracted from the Hand book of Statistics, 2013 published by the Chief Planning Offices of respective districts. Weighted normal monsoon rain fall for the entire Kundu sub-basin has been computed and founded to be 649.7 mm. The total yield available in the sub-basin has been estimated for the weighted normal monsoon rainfall using the Strange’s table. For the purpose of yield calculations, Kundu sub-basin catchment has been considered as 50% good and 50% average. The total yield in the sub-basin from the entire catchment area of 8683 Sq. km considering weighted normal monsoon rainfall of 649.7 mm has been estimated as 1053.25 M.Cum. Key words: Basin, Sub-basin, Normal monsoon rainfall, Perpendicular bisectors, Rain gauge station, Thiessen polygon, Weighted area and Yield.

Bhavani INTRODUCTION The term ‘yield’ in hydrological notation is the total quantity of water that may accumulate at the required location of a natural stream/river course during a particular period, generally monthly or annually. Basic requirement to design any hydrological structure is the estimation of yield based on rainfall data. Rainfall data is measured at certain locations called rain gauge stations and is expressed in terms of depth. Rainfall can be expressed in different ways as annual rainfall, normal rainfall and normal annual rainfall. Annual rainfall is the total rainfall received during a particular year for a particular rain gauge station. "Normal rainfall” for a particular rain gauge station is an average of 30 years rainfall. Monsoon rainfall is the rainfall received during monsoon period for a particular rain gauge station. Normal Monsoon rainfall for a particular rain gauge station is an average of 30 years monsoon rainfall. When a catchment area is influenced by more than one rain gauge station, the weighted rainfall for the entire ©2015 RS Publication, [email protected] Page 25 International Journal of Advanced Scientific and Technical Research Issue 5 volume 7, Nov. –Dec. 2015 Available online on http://www.rspublication.com/ijst/index.html ISSN 2249-9954 catchment area is to be calculated. To compute the weighted rainfall, three methods namely arithmetic mean method, Theissen polygon method and isohyetal methods are available among which Theissen polygon method has been considered for the present study. STUDY AREA River Pennar originates at Nandi Hills near Chikkabalapura, Karnataka and flows for about 48 Km in Karnataka and enters Andhra Pradesh near Chouluru, Hindupur mandal of Anantapur district. After flowing for a total distance of 597 km, the river joins Bay of Bengal near Vutukuru village at about 30km north east of Nellore town. The entire Pennar basin has its spread mostly in 5 districts namely Anantapur, Kurnool, Kadapa, Chittoor and Nellore districts of Andhra Pradesh. Pennar river basin has eight sub-basins namely 1. Upper Pennar 2.Middle (Mid) Pennar 3.Chitravathi 4.Kundu 5.Papagni 6.Sagileru 7.Cheyyeru and 8. Lower Pennar. Kundu sub-basin which is the largest among all these, has been selected for the present study. It originates at Nallamala hill range at about 12 km east of Pasurutla village, Atmakur Mandal, Kurnool district, Andhra Pradesh, India. It flows mostly in Kurnool district and enters in Kadapa district before it confluences with river Pennar near Eturu village, Khajipeta mandal, Kadapa district. An Index map showing the study area is given in figure 1. Fig 1: Index Map showing the study area DATA Following data has been collected for the present study (i) Rain gauge stations existing within and around the sub-basin have been identified based on Topo sheets with numbers 57E, 57I and 57J of scale 1:2,50,000. ©2015 RS Publication, [email protected] Page 26 International Journal of Advanced Scientific and Technical Research Issue 5 volume 7, Nov. –Dec. 2015 Available online on http://www.rspublication.com/ijst/index.html ISSN 2249-9954 (ii) Normal monsoon rain fall particulars of influencing rain gage stations have been extracted from the Hand books of Statistics, 2013 published by the Chief Planning Offices of respective districts i.e. Kurnool, Kadapa and Anantapur districts. (iii) Strange’s Yield table has been extracted from Irrigation manual by W.M. Ellis for estimation of total yield. METHODOLOGY Based on topo sheets, a digitized map showing all the natural stream courses with in Kundu river basin has been developed using ‘AutoCAD’. In Auto CAD, boundary of the basin has been traced out based on the origin of stream courses and area covered by the basin has been computed as 8683 Sq.km. A map showing the existing natural stream courses and boundary of the basin has been presented in figure 2.

Procedure for construction of Theissen polygons is as follows. Locations of 34 rain gauge stations located in and around the sub-basin were identified on plan and lines connecting the adjacent stations were drawn. Perpendicular bisectors were developed for all the lines joining the rain gauge stations and were extended to form the polygon around each rain gauge station. A map showing the locations of rain gauge stations and the construction lines for Theissen polygons is given in figure 3.

JAYA RAO OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE DIRECTOR OF CENSUS OPERATIONS ANDHRA PRADESH PUBLISHED BY THE GOVERNMENT OF ANDHRA PRADESH .1986 SRI KRISHNADEVARA YA UNIVERSITY, ANANTAPUR The motif given on the cover page is the Library Building representing Sri Krishnadevaraya University, Anantapur. Land of Diamonds and Great Empires, Rayalaseema, heir to a very rich and varied cultural heritage, now proudly advances to a new milestone in her progress when the new University was inaugurated on the 22nd November, 1981. True to the legacy of the golden era, the new University is named after SRI KRISHNADEVARAYA, the greatest of the Vijayanagara Rulers. The formation of Sri Krishnadevaraya University fulfils the long cherished dreams and aspirations of the students, academicians, educationists and the general public of the region. The new University originated through the establishment of a Post-Graduate Centre at Anantapur which was commissioned in 1968 with the Departments of Telugu, English, Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics with a strength of 60 students and 26 faculty members. It took its umbrage in the local Government Arts Col/ege, Anantapur as an affiliate to the Sri Venkateswara University. In 1971, the Post-Graduate Centle moved into its own campus at a distance of 11 Kilometers from Anantapur City on the Madras Highway in an area of 243 hectares. The campus then had just two blocks, housing Physical Sciences and Humanities with a few quarters for the staff and a hostel for the boys.

How the Kurnool district in Andhra Pradesh, India, fought Corona (Case study). SEEJPH 2020, posted: 18 November 2020. DOI: 10.4119/seejph-3963 Abstract Background: Kurnool, one of the four districts in the Rayalaseema region of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, emerged as a COVID-19 hotspot by mid-April 2020. Method: The authors compiled the publicly available information on different public health measures in Kurnool district and related them to the progression of COVID-19 from March to May 2020. Results: Two surges in pandemic progression of COVID-19 were recorded in Kurnool. The ini- tial upsurge in cases was attributed to return of people from other Indian states, along with return of participants of a religious congregation in Delhi, followed by in-migration of workers and truckers from other states and other districts of Andhra Pradesh, particularly from the state of Maharashtra (one of the worst affected states in India) and Chennai (the Koyambedu wholesale market - epicenter of the largest cluster of COVID-19 in Tamil Nadu).

    Occurrence of Helically Coiled Microfossil Obruchevella in the Owk Shale of the Kurnool Group and Its Significance

    Occurrence of helically coiled microfossil Obruchevella in the Owk Shale of the Kurnool Group and its significance Mukund Sharma∗ and Yogmaya Shukla Birbal Sahni Institute of Palaeobotany, 53 University Road, Lucknow 226 007, Uttar Pradesh, India. ∗Corresponding author. e-mail: [email protected] [email protected] The present study reports occurrence of helically coiled microfossil Obruchevella Reitlinger from the Owk Shale of the Kurnool Group from the peninsular India. The age of the Kurnool Group is poorly constrained due to the absence of direct radiometric dating and meager palaeobiological data. Occurrence of Obruchevella is considered as a typical Vendian marker genus recorded mostly from close to the Precambrian–Cambrian boundary successions. Hence, the present assemblage is important to ascertain the age of the basin. In the Owk Shale, four species of Obruchevella, viz., O. delicata, O. parva, O. minor and O. valdaica are recorded as organic walled microfossils. Among them O. valdaica is the largest in terms of size parameters. On the global scale, the recovered species occur in the Late Neoproterozoic to Early Cambrian sediments. Therefore, the occurrence of microfossil Obruchevella in the Owk Shale and known burrow structures in the Narji Limestone suggest Ediacaran age close to the Cambrian for the Kurnool Basin and challenges the recently assigned Mesoproterozoic age of the basin. 1.

    CENSUS OF INDIA 1991 SERIES 2 ANDHRA PRADESH DISTRICT CENSUS HANDBOOK CUDDAPAH PART XII - A &. B VILLAGE &. TOWN DIRECTORY VILLAGE &. TOWNWISE PRIMARY CENSUS ABSTRACT R.P.SINGH OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE DIRECTOR OF CENSUS OPERATIONS ANDHRA PRADESH PUBLISHED BY THE GOVERNMENT OF ANDHRA PRADESH 1997 III FOREWORD Publication of the District Census Handbooks (DCHs) was initiated after the 1951 Census and is continuing since then with some innovations/modifications after each decennial Census. This is the most valuable district level publication brought out by the Census Organisation on behalf of each State Govt./ Union Territory administration. It Inter­ alia Provides data/information on some of the basic demographic and socio-economic characteristics and on the availability of certain important civic amenities/facilities in each village and town of the respective districts. This publication has thus proved to be of immense utility to the planners., administrators, academicians and researchers. The scope of the DCH was initially confined to certain important census tables on population, economic and socio-cultural aspects as also the Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town (ward wise) of the district. The DCHs published after the 1961 Census contained a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and Village and Town Directories including PCA. After the 1971 Census, two parts of the District Census Handbooks (Part-A comprising Village and Town Directories and Part-B compriSing Village and Town PCA) were released in all the States and Union Territories. The third Part (C) of the District Census Handbooks comprising administrative statistics and district census tables, which was also to be brought out, could not be published in many States/UTs due to considerable delay in compilation of relevant material.
