The Kali-Hindon inter-stream region extends over an area of 395 km2 within the Ganga-Yamuna interfluve. It is a fertile tract for sugarcane cultivation. Groundwater is a primary resource for
irrigation and industrial purposes. In recent years, over-exploitation has resulted in an adverse impact on the groundwater
regime. In this study, an attempt has been made to calculate a water balance for the Kali-Hindon inter-stream region. Various
inflows and outflows to and from the aquifer have been calculated. The recharge due to rainfall and other recharge parameters
such as horizontal inflow, irrigation return flow and canal seepage were also evaluated. Groundwater withdrawals, evaporation
from the water table, discharge from the aquifer to rivers and horizontal subsurface outflows were also estimated. The results
show that total recharge into the system is 148.72 million cubic metres (Mcum), whereas the total discharge is 161.06 Mcum,
leaving a deficit balance of −12.34 Mcum. Similarly, the groundwater balance was evaluated for the successive four years.
The result shows that the groundwater balance is highly sensitive to variation in rainfall followed by draft through pumpage.
The depths to water level are shallow in the canal-irrigated northern part of the basin and deeper in the southern part. The
pre-monsoon and post-monsoon water levels range from 4.6 to 17.7 m below ground level (bgl) and from 3.5 to 16.5 m bgl respectively.
It is concluded that the groundwater may be pumped in the canal-irrigated northern part, while withdrawals may be restricted
to the southern portion of the basin, where intense abstraction has led to rapidly falling water table levels. 相似文献

Exploration and exploitation of coal seams is one of the major resources for the energy sector in any country but at the same
time water filled voids/water logged areas in the old workings of these seams are very critical problems for the coal mining
industry. In such situations, disasters like inundation, landslides, collapsing of the old seams may occur. In this regard,
it is necessary to find out the water saturated/water filled voids and zones in the mining areas. Since no established technique
is available to find such zones, an experimental study using Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI) has been carried out in
one of the coal mining areas near Dhanbad, to find out the feasibility of finding the barrier thickness and the water logged
area in underground coal mines. The area under study forms part of Jharia coalfield in Dhanbad district, Jharkhand state.
The coal bearing rocks of Barakar Formation of Lower Permian age (Gondwana period) occur in the area under a thin cover (10
m to15 m) of soil and or alluvium. Coal bearing Barakar Formations consist mainly of sandstone of varying grain size, intercalation
of shale and sandstone, grey and carbonaceous-shale and coal seams.
Since the water saturation reduces the resistivity of a formation to a large extent, water filled voids and old coal workings
are expected to have significant resistivity contrast with the surrounding host rock. Hence, ERI technique was applied in
such an environment as this technique uses high-density data acquisition both laterally and vertically by using multiple number
of electrodes. Along with ERI, mise-à-la-masse (also called charged body) technique was also employed at one of the promising
sites to find out the connectivity of water logged areas and also detection of these old workings from the surface measurements
was analyzed. The interpreted 2D resistivity sections have clearly indicated the water bearing zone(s) along the profile which
was well confirmed with the existing water level in the nearby borewells. On the other hand, this technique did not identify
the size of the coal pillar and gallery (air filled voids), which might be due to the small size of the voids (i.e. about
2 m × 2 m) below a depth of 15m and more but have indicated altogether as a high resistive zone ranging from 600–1000 Ohm-m. 相似文献

Maheshwaram watershed is situated in Ranga Reddy district of at a distance of about 30 km south of Hyderabad. The watershed
has an area of 53 km2 and has hard rock aquifers with semi-arid climate. The study area has been expanding at a fast pace and now has the distinction
of being one of the fastest growing urban centers, facing the problem of groundwater depletion and quality deterioration due
to the absence of perennial source of surface water and also due to over exploitation. Human activities involving industrial
and agricultural development and the inadequate management of land and water resources have, directly or indirectly resulted
in the degradation of environment viz. water and soil. 相似文献

GIS-based impact assessment of land-use changes on groundwater quality: study from a rapidly urbanizing region of South India 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

This study attempts to assess the influence of changing land-use patterns on the groundwater quality of the hard rock aquifer
system in the Maheshwaram watershed, near Hyderabad, India. The study area is a rapidly urbanizing region with land development
progressing at a fast pace. To study the impact of this rapid urbanization and overall land-use transition, a groundwater
quality index (GQI) was prepared within a geographical information system (GIS). The GQI integrates the different water quality
parameters to give a final index value that can be used for spatio-temporal comparisons. The land-use transitions were closely
monitored from 2003 to 2008 using multispectral satellite images. The land-use pattern has changed drastically with an increase
in the built-up area at the expense of other land uses. The analysis reveals a rapid deterioration of groundwater quality
related mainly to the increase in built-up land with unsewered sanitation and poultry farms. Seasonal variability of the groundwater
quality was also assessed. Mean GQI decreased from 84.16 to 83.26 over a period of 5 years from 2003 to 2008, while seasonal
variability of water quality increased. GQI and Seasonal Variability of water quality were integrated in GIS to yield a groundwater
sustainability map, in terms of water quality. Zones of sustainable and unsustainable groundwater use were demarcated for
better decision making related to municipal land allotment in this rapidly urbanizing region. 相似文献

The significance of morphometric analysis for obtaining groundwater potential zones in a structurally controlled terrain 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Watershed development and management plans are more important for harnessing surface water and groundwater resources in arid and semi-arid regions. To prepare a comprehensive watershed development plan, it becomes necessary to understand the topography, erosion status and drainage patterns of the region. This study was undertaken to determine the drainage characteristics of Pageru River basin using topographical maps on a scale of 1:50,000. The total area of the Pageru River basin is 480 km2. It was divided into X sub-basins for analysis. The drainage patterns of the basin are dendritic and include a sixth order stream. The quantitative analysis of various aspects of a river basin drainage network characteristics reveals complex morphometric attributes. The streams of lower orders mostly dominate the basin. The development of stream segments in the basin area is more or less affected by rainfall. The elongated shape of the basin is mainly due to the guiding effect of thrusting and faulting. The erosional processes of fluvial origin have been predominately influenced by the subsurface lithology of the basin. 相似文献

A series of geophysical parameters have been applied with geological perception to resolve the hydrogeological complexities over granitic terrain at Hyderabad, India. Frequent failure of borehole drillings and the thrust conditions of community have prompted a noninvasive suitable tool, applied at small scale for pinpointing potential well site. Geophysical scanning, viz. electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), spontaneous potential (SP), and electrical gradient profiling (GP) were employed within the restricted space of housing complex to obtain the true characteristics of the subsurface lithology, where anomalies by the underground utility structures have been nullified. Results showed, in ERT, the low order of resistivity range 123 to 200?Ωm showing a plume like weathered zone underlain by sudden slip of massive granite (>217?Ωm) was of great interest to proceed further in the process. Here, the switchover in SP value from +18 mV to ?17 mV and GP from mean value 10 to 90 mV/m was recorded. The anomalies in SP and GP were precisely coincided with the ERT where upcoming of subsurface massive granite next to the inferred fracture was noted. Drilling core logs satisfies the geophysical signatures ensuring the inferred saturated fracture with the total yield 1,302 gal/h. 相似文献
