GEOMORPHOLOGY AND MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS USED AS A SIGNIFICANT INDICATOR FOR GROUNDWATER PROSPECTS: A CASE STUDY OF THE KOUSIKA MANADI SUB BASIN VAIGAI RIVER TAMIL NADU
G. Prithiviraj, S. Venkateswaran
Abstract :
A morphometric analysis was done to evaluate the drainage characteristics of Kousika Manadi sub basin using topographical maps with digital elevation data. This analysis can be achieved through measurement of basic, derived, and shape aspects of the sub basin. In the present study, quantitative morphometric analysis is carried out for 28 micro–watersheds of Kousika Manadi, which is located in Madurai and Virudhunagar districts, Tamil Nadu. Geological setting of the study area with all complexities leads to unique hydrogeological features. The study has strengthened in understanding the hydrological, geological and geomorphological characteristics of the Kousika Manadi sub basin.
