  • Integrating 1D-2D Hydrodynamic Model for Sabarmati Upper River Basin with Special Reference to Ahmedabad City Area
    1 INTEGRATING 1D-2D HYDRODYNAMIC MODEL FOR SABARMATI UPPER RIVER BASIN WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO AHMEDABAD CITY AREA. Sejal Chandel ˡ, Dr. Suvarna Shah² ˡ PG Student, Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Technology and Engineering , The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, Vadodara, Gujarat, India ²Associate Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Technology and Engineering ,The Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, Vadodara, Gujarat, India [email protected] [email protected] Abstract In recent study, Gujarat has become one of the India’s most urbanized state, causing severe flash flooding. The Sabarmati river is one of the major west-flowing rivers in India and biggest river of north Gujarat. Urbanization should meet the population’s need by enlargement of paved areas, which has unusually changed the catchment’s hydrological and hydraulic characteristic. Therefore, the frequency of flash flooding in Sabarmati river has been increased. The Sabarmati river basin experienced eight times devastating flooding condition between 1972 to 2020.Among which July 2017 flooding event breakdown a 112 years old record of 1905. The Dharoi dam and Wasna barrage on Sabarmati river and surrounding district Kheda, Mehsana, Gandhinagar, Ahmedabad received a huge rainfall caused anomalous inflow to tributary which forced the dam authorities to release huge discharge in short duration. The Sabarmati riverfront of Ahmedabad had been going under water for five days due incessant rainfall in the city that leads to swelling of the Sabarmati River in 2017. In order to determine extent of Inundation, Hydrodynamic Model HEC-RAS(5.0.6) with Arc GIS was used. Various scenarios were run to study the impact of simulation on flood inundation(with & without riverfront project).The simulated flood depths have been compared with actual depths obtained at gauging station, which were collected from Government authorities.

  • Eco-Hydrology and Chemical Pollution of Western Ghats
    Eco-hydrology and Chemical Pollution of Western Ghats Dr.Mathew Koshy M..Sc., M.Phil., Ph.D. Reader and Research Guide in Chemistry, Bishop Moore College, Mavelikara.Kerala Eco-hydrology Eco-hydrology is a new integrative science that involves finding solutions to issues surrounding water, people, and the environment. One of the fundamental concepts involved in eco-hydrology is that the timing and availability of freshwater is intimately linked to ecosystem processes, and the goods and services provided by fresh waters to societies. This means that emphasis is placed on the hydrological cycle and its effects on ecological processes and human well-being. Limnology Limnology is the science that deals with the physical, chemical and biological properties and features of fresh waters. A professional who studies fresh water systems is a limnologist. Lotic System: The lotic environment is consisting of all inland waters in which entire water body continually flows in a definite direction. etc. rivers streams. Lentic system: The lentic environment has been including all inland waters in which water has been not continually flowing in a definite direction. Standing waters Western Ghats The Western Ghats hill range extends along the west coast of India, covering an area of 160,000 square kilometers. The presence of these hills creates major precipitation gradients that strongly influence regional climate, hydrology and the distribution of vegetation types and endemic plants. Biodiversity Although the total area is less than 6 percent of the land area of India, the Western Ghats contains more than 30 percent of all plant, fish, fauna, bird, and mammal species found in India.

  • Sedimentological Characterization of Nagavali-Vamsadhra Estuarine System, East Coast of India, Andhra Pradesh
    Studia Rosenthaliana (Journal for the Study of Research) ISSN NO: 1781-7838 Sedimentological Characterization of Nagavali-Vamsadhra Estuarine System, East Coast of India, Andhra Pradesh Gara Raja Rao1, Yamala Vinay Kumar2, Vaggela Asha3, Sanapala Harikrishna3, Mokka Jagannadha Rao4 1 Assistant Professor, Department of Geology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. 2,3 Research Scholar, Department of Geology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. 4 Professor, Department of Geology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam. Abstract: The importance of textural characteristics of estuarine sediments in the present study is useful in understanding the intensity of sediment transportation in the fluvial systems. The importance of grain size parameters of the sediments is well recognized in sedimentology and has been well established. The present study illustrates the detailed textural characterization of Nagavali and Vamsadhara estuarine sediments of East Coast of India, Srikakulam, Tamil Nadu. The textural studies reflect that the sediments have significant fractions of fine to medium sand, silt and clay, where fine sand is predominant in both the estuaries. The statistical sedimentary analysis for the samples say mean size, standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis is carried out. The sediment is dominantly fine sand with moderately sorted, nearly skewed in Nagavali estuary whereas the sand is very well sorted and nearly symmetrical in Vamsadhara estuarine sediments. The sediments of both are similar in size and show low variance. The present study suggests that the sediments were deposited in low energy conditions. The Nagavali estuary samples shows nearly symmetrical skewness and the Vamsadhara estuary samples shows nearly symmetrical to positive skewness. Negative Skewness was being correlated with high energy and winnowing action and positive Skewness with lower energy levels.

  • Geochemical Modeling of Groundwater in Chinnar River Basin: a Source Identification Perspective
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Aquatic Procedia 4 ( 2015 ) 986 – 992 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON WATER RESOURCES, COASTAL AND OCEAN ENGINEERING (ICWRCOE 2015) Geochemical Modeling of Groundwater in Chinnar River Basin: A Source Identification Perspective Suma CS*, Srinivasamoorthy K, Saravanan K, Faizalkhan A, Prakash R, Gopinath S Pondicherry University, Department of Earth sciences, Pondicherry, India -605014 Abstract Understanding the geochemical evolution of groundwater is an essential part of the performance assessment and safety analysis of the geological system. Geochemical modeling techniques using PHREEQCI will aid in demarcating the main factors and mechanisms controlling the chemistry of groundwater. An attempt has been made in hard rock terrain of Chinnar basin, Dharmapuri district of Tamilnadu, India to interpret the processes and factors controlling hydrogeochemistry of groundwater. The area is made up of rock units belonging to Charnockite and Granitic Gneiss. Groundwater chemistry has been attempted + + 2+ 2+ - - - - based on laboratory observations of major cations like Na , K , Ca and Mg and anions like Cl , HCO3 , NO3 , F , 2- 3- SO4 and PO4 . Piper diagram reveals higher bicarbonate, calcium and magnesium along the recharge zones and tend to decrease along the flow path and vice versa for ions like sodium, potassium and chloride. Two flow paths based on piper and saturation index were identified for two major lithounits. The granitic terrain shows precipitation of calcium and sulfate minerals and dissolution of silicate minerals. The charnockite terrain shows precipitation of silicates and dissolution of calcium and sulfate minerals. From initial to final solution slight variation in calcium and sulfate stability were identified but drastic change with reference to silicate minerals stability due to effective dissolution of silicate minerals from the litho units of the study area.
