watershed planning

Know the runoff volume for a watershed as runoff is the most important hydrological component for a design of any hydrologic structure and especially in the area of water scarcity (Ibrahim Kaleel et al., 2018). In carrying out water availability studies, it is always appropriate to use the observed runoff data.

Watershed management is the meant to containing the deterioration of natural resources for maintaining the ecological balance and sustainable economic development. This paper presents the brief review about various aspects of the Participatory rural appraisal (PRA) approaches in watershed management. The purpose of PRA is to make possible development practitioners, university and state department officials, and local people to work together to plan context suitable programs.

Planning strategies for sustainable land management require solid base line data on natural resources (soils, physiography, climate, vegetation, land use, etc.) and on socio-economic aspects. Extensive and reliable information on soil and land resources are prerequisites for efficient and effective management planning of these vital natural resources. Generation of large-scale spatial database on soil and land resources by conventional method is a time consuming and highly expensive process.

The application of remote sensing and geographical information system for the analysis of morphometric parameters are found to be of immense utility in watershed prioritization for soil, water conservation and natural resources management at micro level. Geomorphological analysis is the systematic description of watershed geometry and its stream system. These parameters directly or indirectly reflect the response of entire watershed based on causative factors that are affecting runoff and sediment loss.

Watershed is generally considered as the smallest unit to get hydrological response of any developmental activity. To work out a comprehensive development plan for optimum use of natural resources the study of watershed characteristics is necessary. Watershed characteristics can be understood from the morphometric analysis and which can be better analyzed by GIS. The aim of the present study is to understand the morphometric characteristics of Katra watershed of Koraput, Odisha, situated in part of Eastern Ghats, an ecologically sensitive region using GIS.

Soils of Bino-river watershed in Almora district of Uttarakhand, India in north western Himalayas were characterised and classified for land categorisation and perspective land use planning. On the basis of interpretation of remote sensing data and ground truth verification three broad landforms viz., ridge tops, side slopes and valleys were identified and further sub-divided into seven landform units based on slope gradients. Nine types of soils (Pedons 1 to 9) were identified in the watershed area.
