Morphometric characteristics for watershed monitoring using geospatial techniques in VEL river basin Maharashtra India


Author(s): Sanjay Bankar and Aasaram Jadhav

Abstract: The Vel River Basin demonstrates diverse geomorphological features, characterized by a moderately steep terrain and a well-developed drainage system. The basin's gentle slopes contribute to a gradual flow of water, which reduces the chances of sudden flooding events. The elongated shape of the basin supports prolonged water retention, allowing for better groundwater recharge and reduced peak discharge. However, the rugged topography and the presence of numerous streams suggest a high potential for erosion and sediment transport, particularly in the steeper regions. These factors make the basin sensitive to changes in land use and rainfall patterns, highlighting the importance of implementing sustainable watershed management practices. Overall, the basin's characteristics suggest a balanced hydrological system but one that requires careful monitoring to mitigate erosion and enhance water conservation efforts.
