HYDROLOGICAL STUDIES OF CHANNEL MODIFICATIONS AT CAUVERY RIVER, INDIA

研究概要:The study deals with hydrological aspects of palaeo-courses of Cauvery River, India resulted from channel modification. Detailed studies have been conducted in two sectors located in the river basin in areas around Talakad and Manchanahalli, Palaeochannels have been demarcated and delineated by using remote sensing technique. Later the hydrological parameters were estimated for analyzing the hydrological signatures of palaeochannels resulted from channel modification. It has been observed that these parameters are unique in areas, which are located at or near palaeochannels.
