Soil erosion studies for forested watersheds – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

In the present study, an attempt has been made to estimate the soil erosion rate in Malaprabha representative basin by using WEPP model and Universal Soil Loss Equation. Soil erosion and sedimentation are the two important natural processes, which need immediate attention from the scientific community. Two major types of erosion are geological erosion and erosion from human or animal activities.Read More

Derivation of Geomorphological Instantaneous Unit Hydrographs for small catchments in hard rock regions - A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

In the study, the methodology developed at the National Institute of Hydrology to relate Clark model parameters to geomorphological characteristics has been used to develop unit hydrograph for two hard rock catchments, Barchi nala and Malaprabha up to Khanapur. This model has already been successfully implemented for simulation of flood events in small catchments of Upper Narmada and Kolar sub-basin of Narmada river as well as the Tapi sub-zone.Read More

Comparison of single and multiple flow direction algorithm for computing topographic parameters in TOPMODEL – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The report attempts to do a comparison of single and multiple flow direction algorithms for computing topographic parameters in TOPMODEL. Topography is an important factor that influences the physical phenomenon of rainfall-runoff. Undeniably, it plays a primary role in the gravity drainage within a basin. In the last decade, ever-developing computer techniques associated with the greater availability of terrain data in digital form has favored the production of physically based models, which have spatial variability of topography built into their structure.Read More

Hydrological modeling using GIS - A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

In this study, NASMO model, a rainfall-runoff method, which uses the SCS method to determine effective rainfall, the linear reservoir method to route the runoff over land and the modified Puls method to route the runoff in the stream have been applied for hydrological modeling of the Malaprabha catchment in Karnataka. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) has been applied to derive the catchment characteristics like shape, size, slope and land use pattern.Read More

Application of TOPMODEL to Malaprabha catchment – A research report by National Institute of Hydrology

The study applies TOPMODEL (Topography Model) to the Malaprabha catchment of Krishna river basin in Karnataka to simulate the daily flows at Khanapur site. The catchment area of Malaprabha up to discharge measuring site Khanapur is 520 sqkm. The model uses topographic index for the formation of runoff through development of a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) by interpolating the contours in the basin at 300 m grid size.Read More
