Deccan Trap lavas (Cretaceous to Tertiary), which cover a large area in the Western and the Central India, are generally regarded as structurally undisturbed save for certain areas along the west-coast and the Narmada Valley in Central India. Remote Sensing techniques have given a new dimension to the problem of locating such disturbed areas by virtue of the capacity of aerospace imagery to delineate lineaments, many of which represent structural geological features. Studies carried out in the areas west and north west of Pune, (above and below the western ghat scrap), the Narmada valley region north of Barwah and the Ramakona area of Central India, reveal that these areas are riddled with fractures. The fractures have generally given rise to narrow valley or escarpments. Some of the fractures show displacement along them, while some show intrusive dykes filling them. The fractures in Central India were sometimes found to the extensions of faults traversing the basement. Hence, in the regoins, where the basement is not exposed, they may be suggestive of the structural trends of the concealed basement. 相似文献

The geological studies of the eastern parts of Harda-Barwah basin covering about 3000 sq. km area on 1∶50,000 scale have been carried out using satellite imagery of IRS (FCC), supplemented by Landsat TM/MSS scences and air photos. The present studies with the aid of satellite imagery and remote sensing techniques have brought out the regional stratigraphy and structure of the area and helped in deciphering the interrelationship of various rock groups in the Narmada lineament zone. The area comprises Archaean/Proterozoic gneisses, the Mahakoshal volcano sedimentary suite, the Harda granitoids, the Bijawar Group and the rocks of Vindhyan Supergroup, Deccan Trap and Quaternary sediments. The Archaean/Proterozoic rocks comprising gneisses and schist form basement. The Mahakoshal Group of rocks occur along the ENE-WSW to E-W trending Narmada lineament zone and comprise foliated quartzite, actinolite-chlorite-sericite phyllite and metabasics. The Harda granitoids showing intrusive relationship with earlier rocks, comprise coarse-grained crudely foliated grey to pink granites, fine to medium grained homogeneous granites and porphyritic granites. The Bijawar Group comprises quarzite, chert breccia and dolomite in the order of younging and shows unconformable relationship with the Mahakoshal and the Harda granitoids. The Bijawar rocks show doubly plunging major synformal structure and numerous sympathetic minor folds along ENE-WSW to E-W axis and cross folds along NW-SW axis. The Bijawar rocks are unconformably overlain by a sequence of sandstone and shales belonging to the Rewa Group of the Vindhyan Supergroup. The Deccan Trap lava flows represent the last igneous activity in the area. The Quaternary deposits comprising a cyclic sequence of sand, silt, clay and rock gravels of the Narmada river represent the youngest formation of the area. 相似文献

Remote sensing and GIS application in change detection of the Barak River channel,N.E. India 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Rivers flowing through the alluvium invariably have very low gradient forcing the river to flow slowly in a meandering and
zigzag path. Nature and intensity of meandering is governed by the geological and tectonic conditions of the river basin.
Barak River in tectonically active south Assam (Northeast India) exhibits intense meandering and shifting of the river course.
Topographic data of two different years and satellite images of 4 different years covering a section of the Barak River have
been investigated to verify the nature of changes undergone by the river through times. This study reveals active northward
shift of the river and a prominent neck-cut off in the initial part of the study area. Northward shift of the river also occurred
in the area west of Silchar. But, in the western part the river has shifted both towards north and south. Oscillatory shifting
in the river channel has also been noticed. The river has shown a overall northward shift which is probably due to uplift
of the southern part of the Barak River valley. 相似文献

Employing integrated remote sensing and GIS technology the western most part of Tripura region (Northeast India) and adjoining
Bangladesh region has been investigated in the light of its geomorphological characteristics. Nature of fold ridges, several
streams and the respective drainage basins are well depicted in satellite images and digital elevation model providing meaningful
information. Quantitative parameters such as stream sinuosity, drainage basin asymmetry, basin elongation ratio have been
computed. Main rivers of the study area, namely the Gomti and Khowai follows extremely meandering path and crosses through
the transversely faulted anticlinal ridges. Fluvial anomalies viz. shift in stream channel and the abandoned meandering loops
have been inferred and mapped. The Haora river in the study area exhibits northward shift in some part. Development of drainage
system towards north and south from the drainage divide along the latitude 23°45′N indicated up arching of the region which is also corroborated by the extracted topographic profiles. It has been observed
that several tributary streams have gone dry and agricultural fields are developed along the dried up stream. These derived
parameters remained useful to understand the nature of topographical modification attributed to the possible tectonic activity. 相似文献

Geological mapping of the Vindhyan and Deccan Trap terrain around Jhalawar was accomplished by aerial photointerpretation with limited field checks in parts, by conventional field mapping for part of the area and also by interpretation of LANDSAT imagery. A comparative assessment of the data producing capability and accuracy of these methods is made from the case study. Major geological formations comprising Semri, Kaimur, Rewa and Bhander groups of Vindhyan supergroup, Deccan Trap and recent fluvial sediments are equally interpretable from all three level (i.e. ground, air and space) surveillance data. All the members and units are mappable on air photos and on ground but not on the LANSAT imagery. It is difficult to plot all the flows and flow units of Deccan Trap on a topographic base map during conventional field mapping but these are more or less separable on aerial photos. Structural trends are decipherable by photointerpretation but lineaments are well depicted on LANDSAT imagery. Physical and petrological characters of rocks can, however, only be studied in situ and by laboratory analysis of samples. Aerial photointerpretation techniques can be applied for geological mapping of Vindhyan and Deccan Trap terrain with high degree of confidence and reasonable accurate maps can be generated. LANDSAT imagery are useful for generation of small scale reconnalssance and lineament pattern maps. The best system of mapping such terrain would be photointerpretation with limited field check and collection of essential groundtruth and specimens for laboratory analysis along selected traverses thus minimising the time and cost of survey. 相似文献

The Alaknanda River is the most significant parental river of Ganga and forms an 11.5 km long and 2.5 km wide valley, locally known as the Srinagar Valley. The purpose of the present study is to highlight the recent landform changes in the Alaknanda channel course after the Kedarnath disaster, 2013. The Kedarnath flood completely changed the channel morphology of the Alaknanda river. The river changed its course at Srikot, SSB and Sriyantra Tapu with lower terraces being silted by sands at Ranihat, SSB, Bhaktiyana and Sriyantra Tapu. A new depositional terrace also formed opposite to Sriyantra Tapu. New lateral channel bars, braided channels, back swamp, rapids, pools and river souls were identified in the channel course of the river. Shifting of the channel course at Chauras still remains a serious problem for the Garhwal University Chauras Campus. About 2–5 m silt was deposited on the lower terrace at SSB, and ITI. The Srikot river bed was appended to 4.60 m. Shifting of channel course remains a serious threat to the Srinagar valley. Urbanization, sand and boulders mining, construction of dam, hydrological canal, road and settlements are the prominent example of anthropogenic activities which affect the shifting channel. 相似文献

Physical habitat of any aquatic ecosystem is an integral part upon which the biological structures of resident communities are built. Degradation of the physical habitat has serious consequences on aquatic communities and is among the leading causes of stream impairment worldwide. Therefore, a sound habitat assessment approach is necessary to assess the condition of running water and to determine if habitat degradation is responsible for any degradation in biological condition. The present study was focused on Physical Habitat Assessment of Denwa River, a sub tributary of river Narmada in central India, for generating a Habitat Suitability map. The Denwa River originates from Satpura ranges in central India and flows through entire Pachmarhi plateau supporting a diversity of habitats for aquatic flora and fauna. A survey was carried out to assess the physical characteristic of Denwa river (84 kms) from its origin to the confluence point of Tawa Denwa river. Six reaches have been identified in study area on the basis of their physiographic conditions. For Habitat Assessment measurement, Rapid Bioassessment Protocols for Stream and Wadeable rivers by United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA, 841-B-99-002) have been used. Seven parameters from this protocol have been chosen for physical characterization. GIS techniques have been used to develop a Habitat Suitability Map of the study area based on scores to illustrate its suitability to support aquatic life. The present paper discusses in detail the suitability of the different reaches of the River Denwa for supporting the aquatic biodiversity. 相似文献

The Dibru river basin of Assam is investigated to examine the influence of active structure by applying an integrated study on geomorphology, morphotectonics, subsurface structure, Digital Elevation Model (DEM) using topographic map, IRS 1D LISS III, IRS P6 LISS III, SRTM, seismic and subsurface data. Seismic data reveals existence of an upwarp and an important fault in the basement around the central and eastern parts of the Dibru basin, respectively. The influence of these structures is well observed on all the younger formations inferring their active nature possibly till the Recent Period. Existence of fluvial anomalies, viz. annular drainage pattern, lineaments, abrupt changes in the direction of river course, beheaded stream and valley incision infer role of structural control on the fluvial features of this basin. Most commonly used indices for morphotectonic analysis, viz. basin elongation ratio (Re), transverse topographic symmetry (T), asymmetric factor (AF), valley floor width to valley height ratio (Vf) have been used to identify the evidences of active structures in the area. The values of Re indicated tectonically active, T indicated an asymmetric nature, AF indicated tilting and Vf indicated active incision in the Dibru basin. The DEM, profiles across the valley and superimposed longitudinal profiles of incised channel bed and valley shoulder of the Dibru clearly reveal valley incision by the river. Three large paleochannels located in different parts of the basin had their headwaters towards east at the common source, i.e. the Diyun river. These paleochannels had been resulted when their headwaters avulsed to create new rivers due to affect of the subsurface structures during Recent (or perhaps Neogene?) Period. 相似文献

A part of Precambrian rocks of central India around Renukoot, district Sonbhadra, U.P., exhibits noteworthy differences in
morphometric characteristics such as drainage density, mean stream length, bifurcation ratio and stream frequency across Son
Narmada South Fault of the Son Narmada Lineament Zone. The Remote Sensing and GIS based present study explains the tectonic
evolution of the terrain by dividing the area into two morphotectonic units namely Dudhi Morphotectonic Unit (DMU) and Mahakoshal
Morphotectonic Unit (MMU) with the help of a proposed model. The study reveals that the landform features of the rocks of
DMU and MMU of the study area are strongly controlled by underlying lithology and structures. The study also reveals different
tectonic histories for the units until the last or the fourth phase of deformation dominated by shearing movement. 相似文献

The Burhi‐Gandak river is one of the major tributaries of the Ganga River in the middle Ganga basin. The river is i known to have an oscillatory character and has changed its course in Recent times. In the present study, a variety of remote sensing data combined with surface and subsurface data have been used to delineate the fluvial palaeofeatures of this river. The palaeofeatures of the Burhi‐Gandak indicate that the river has shifted from N to S over a distance of 30 km. Further, its is observed that Burhi‐Gandak river had a larger channel width and higher discharge on earlier times and was very active. On detailed examination, a past link between the now northerly flowing Baghmati and Burhi‐Gandak rivers is detected. Based on the above features, three distinct stages of migration of the river have been identified and a summary of fluvial palaeohistory is presented. 相似文献

Physical habitat is the living space of in-stream biota which is an important factor that can affect both the quality and quantity of available habitat and the structure and composition of resident biological communities. It is a spatially and temporally dynamic entity determined by the interaction of the structural features of the channel and hydrological regime. Ganjal River is a left bank tributary of River Narmada and Morand river is the major tributary of it. At these rivers Physical Habitat Assessment was carried out using USEPA Rapid Bioassessment Protocols to know habitat suitability conditions in rivers for aquatic life thrive in. In the study habitat assessment parameters were scored according to the existing conditions for each section of the rivers and were categorised under four conditions i.e. optimal, suboptimal, marginal and poor. On the basis of result obtained from the study Habitat Suitability Map (HSM) was generated using GIS as an interface and it suggests that the habitat quality of both rivers is suitable for aquatic life. 相似文献

Ganga is one of the largest rivers of the world which supports millions of population on its banks. It is a tectonically controlled
Himalayan river which also creates havoc due to perennial floods every year. Like most large river systems, it also shifts
its course in the Gangetic plains in space and time. The present study measures the variable shift in a selected flood-prone
stretch of the Allahabad city lying on the western bank of the Ganga river, taking into account the historical, annual to
monthly data (including pre- and post-monsoon shifts) to show the ongoing changes in the river course with possible causes
and futher implications. It also discusses for the first time the down stream effect of the Tehri dam on the Ganga river course
after it became functional. 相似文献

The anomalous channel pattern in the midland stretch of the river Karamana, having highly sinuous and incised course with varying floodplain, is analysed to determine the different stages of evolution of the river channel in response to the structural disturbances in the area. Geometric analysis of foliation, geospatial analyses of sinuosity index, hypsometry, channel and streamline changes, river channel cross-profile, longitudinal profile and derivation of fold structure from satellite images were attempted in evaluating the characteristic features of the selected river segment. Datasets used in the analysis were collected through the detailed fieldwork, structural mapping and interpretation of satellite images and satellite-derived digital elevation data. Systematic analysis of the channel pattern of the selected reaches of the river, in 1915, 1968 and 2008 classifies the river as tortuously meandering. Implications of tectonic disturbance can be inferred from the presence of channel incision, unpaired terraces, younger terrain with intense erosion, knick points, convex river long profile, and high hypsometric integral, oscillating and unpaired character of the river channel. Structural analysis along with GIS and remote sensing studies proved the presence of a major fold with a NW–SE-trending axial surface. An evolutionary model is proposed to elucidate the channel planform changes in response to the deformation and tectonic uplift of the region. 相似文献

Satellite remote sensing technique can be effectively utilised in mapping and monitoring the river course changes and associated geomorphological features. Ravi river, flowing along the Indo-Pakistan border, has been in the limelight for its repeated flood havoc during monsoon and abrupt encroachment at some places in the Indian territory, where it was not flowing earlier. This river, meandering in zig-zag fashion along the International boundary in Amritsar and Gurdaspur districts of Punjab, poses perennial threats to the nations’s economy due to extensive destruction happening every year. An attempt has been made to map the shift of this river and the associated geomorphological features along its course using the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite data (IRS-IA and IB LISS-IIFCC) of the period 1991–1993 and the Survey of India topographic sheets of the period 1972–1973. The study shows that there has been drastic changes in the course of Ravi during a span of 20 years due to human activities along its course. The river has shifted its course considerably towards India since its topography is against it. River training structures/bundhs, built by the neighbouring country, across and very near to the earlier river course has been the main reason for this drastic shifting. It is estimated that such massive structures could turn the river course towards India by atleast 1 to 5 km in the border districts of Punjab. This shifting of Ravi along international border poses a serious threat to the Nation’s defence system. 相似文献

The study area around Choral river basin in the Narmada valley region, forms a part of Indore and Khargone districts of Madhya
Pradesh. The geological, geomorphologic, lineament, hydrogeomorphic and groundwater potential zone maps of the study area
have been prepared using IRS IC LISS III FCC imagery on 1:50,000 scale. Various litho-units, different land-forms, lineament
fabric and hydro-geomorphic units have been worked out by visual interpretation methods and frequent field checks. The integrated
hydro-geomorphological map of the study area reveals that the groundwater potential in denudation landforms such as buried
pediplains, plateaus, denudational and residual hills is moderate-to-poor. On the other hand, the groundwater occurrence in
structural landforms like structural hills, lineaments/faults and narrow gorges is likely to be good to moderate and the depositional
landforms namely alluvial plains, valley-fills and meandering-channels favour the accumulation of sub-surface water and, therefore,
may be considered as good recharge zones. From the point of view of groundwater occurrence, various hydro-geomorphic units
have been classified as high, moderate and low potential zones. 相似文献

Ghagghar river in the alluvial plains of Punjab and Haryana, north-west India exhibits the phenomenon of avulsion in its middle and lower reaches. Study of aerial photographs shows that it has abandoned a 25 km long meander belt between Badshahpur and south of Jaswantpura which lies to the north of the present channel. The present channel course lies at a lower elevation on the flood plain away from the levee deposits which acted as an alluvial ridge. 相似文献

Alfios is the biggest river of the Peloponnese and the ninth longest river in Greece. It drains an area of almost 2575 km2 in Western Peloponnese and discharges at Kiparissiakos Gulf. Due to its extent, the Alfios basin presents complex physiography and geomorphology. During the last 50 years, major direct human activities have had an important impact on the river network shape and on the valley floor morphology. The most important human activities were the channel straightening caused by meander cut-offs in 1950, the construction of two dams: the Ladonas dam in 1955 and the Flokas dam in 1968 and the illegal in-stream gravel extraction that started in the 1960s and continues until today. As a result, the Alfios riverbed has presented very rapid vertical and horizontal (lateral) erosion and significant changes to its network shape. The drainage network follows a straighter course, the number of meanders has been reduced and the seventh order branch is deeply incised. Besides the morphological impacts to the river network shape there are also serious economic damages caused by human activity. During the winter of 1999, the Flokas dam bridge was closed for a long period due to damages at its foundation caused by the heavy rain and illegal gravel extraction. Transportation between the villages in the area became extremely difficult and time consuming and the cost of the repairs was estimated at 500 000 euros. In this study, there is an effort to map the network shape transformation for the period 1977–2000 using multitemporal and multisensor satellite images. One Landsat MSS image, three Landsat TM images, two Landsat ETM images, and one Terra ASTER image have been orthorectified and processed in order to cover the specific period. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method and Geographical Information System (GIS) techniques have been applied to map the changes in the Alfios River channel. The drainage network straightening and the cut-off of five big meanders were detected and mapped. These changes occurred between 1986 and 2000. 相似文献
