Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu is located in the South East of India and lies at a mere 6.7m above mean sea level. Chennai is in a vulnerable location due to storm surges as well as tropical cyclones that bring about heavy rains and yearly floods. The 2004 Tsunami greatly affected the coast, and rapid urbanization, accompanied by the reduction in the natural drain capacity of the ground caused by encroachments on marshes, wetlands and other ecologically sensitive and permeable areas has contributed to repeat flood events in the city. Channelized rivers and canals contaminated through the presence of informal settlements and garbage has exasperated the situation. Natural and man-made water infrastructures that include, monsoon water harvesting and storage systems such as the Temple tanks and reservoirs have been polluted, and have fallen into disuse.

  • The Hindu'saugust 15, 1947 Issue
    COLLECTOR'S EDITION The Hindu’s August 15, 1947 issue From its birth as a weekly in September 1878, The Hindu became a powerful instrument of the Indian national movement that sought to overthrow British rule. It was hence tting that when freedom dawned, The Hindu welcomed it with characteristic aplomb, deep thought, and skillful penmanship. The Hindu's edition on August 15, 1947, along with a 32-page supplement, was a tribute to the freedom struggle, with articles by some of the greatest names of that age including V.K. Krishna Menon, India’s rst woman legislator Muthulakshmi Reddi, and the great educationist K.M. Munshi. It also carried striking images of the arrival of Independence, and riveting news from that tempestuous time. The Hindu's leading article on the historic day was characteristically pithy and powerful. Titled "Red letter day'', it said: "By the grace of Providence India enters the comity of free nations today, an equal among equals. It is an occasion for rejoicing not only for her people but for all who value human freedom as an end in itself. So long as this country with her hoary civilisation and many-sided culture, her wealth of resources and matchless opulence of spirit remained in political bondage, that very fact constituted an implicit denial of those values to which the dominant nations of the West were wont to pay lip service." Now, we are proud to share with our loyal subscribers, those very pages, articles, and images from which our readers got to know about the advent of freedom on August 15, 1947.

This study discusses Remote Sensing and GIS based impact assessment on the coastal resources coupled with model simulation. The oil spill impact was estimated through spill simulation and incorporated environmental sensitivity index as level of concern to assess the impact. The best guess of the trajectory simulation was used to assess the spatial distribution and concentration of oil on the coastal region to notify the area and resources to analyze the impact of the spilled oil. Under the simulation of weathering process, it is estimated that 94% oil is stranded on the shoreline. S. Arockiaraj1*, Mary Angelin1, M. C. There has been attempt to document the oil on the water surface using remote John Milton1, G. Bhaskaran2 sensing data collected by Sentinel 1A, 2A and Landsat/OLI and trajectory of the released oil.

  • Conservation Plan for Adyar River
    CONSERVATION PLAN FOR ADYAR RIVER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the award of the degree of MASTER OF TECHNOLOGY in “ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT OF RIVERS AND LAKES” by KARTHIK KUMAR.C ALTERNATE HYDRO ENERGY CENTRE INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY ROORKEE-247667 MAY 2015 ABSTRACT The origin of Adyar River can be traced to a point near Guduvancheri village, in Adanur Tank, though it assumes the appearance as a river only after receiving the surplus water from Chembarampakkam Lake as well as the drainage from the areas in the South West of Chennai. It flows through several villages of Kancheepuram and Chennai district for a distance of 42 km, collecting surplus water from surface drainages and many tanks and lakes, with a total catchment area of 1142 sq.km, to finally drain in the Bay of Bengal. The Adyar river has low velocity and discharge and does not carry enough water to sustain organic life in the river except during the North-West monsoon season. In the upstream of the river, there is less settlement along the banks and is not affected much by domestic sewage. It receives untreated agricultural runoffs. The use of fertilizers and pesticides for agriculture leads to contamination of soil, eventually they reach river through runoff generated by the rainfall as well as agricultural runoff. This leads to the increase in both nitrates as well as phosphates pollution and also contaminates groundwater of the river basin. Adyar River also has an estuary at its mouth, covering 149 Ha of area. About 23.5 ha of its part known as Adyar creek, an estuarine wetland, which is part of the ‘green lungs' of the city, provides a habitat for migratory birds and aquatic animals.
