Abstract :

From all the natural resources, Water is a vital natural resource which forms the basis of all life. By design it is perfect – The most essential element of life. As water is becoming scarce commodity, its preservation and conservation has become the most important aspect in relation to the water resources development planning. Rainfall is basic input to the hydrologic cycle. Its variation and distribution plays important role in hydrologi Water is a vital natural resource which forms the basis of all life. It is very important tool for human development, a key resource in all economic activities ranging from agriculture to industry. Hydrologic phenomena are extremely complex. Rainfall is usually the main input to the hydrological system. Its magnitude, variation and distribution plays important role in hydrological response of the area. Rainfall studies are of utmost utility for understanding nature & hence the behaviour of climate changes. In the present study of rainfall variation pattern at Sanaliya and Talaja rain gauge stations in Shetrunji River Basin have been carried out. For long term analysis 30 years data have been used and its decade wise time series is also studied
