The present study is focused on the changing Land Use / Land Cover practices. “These land use and land cover data are very important for land resource management, planners, and decision makers” (Ndukwe, 1997). In this study has been studied Land use / Land cover change detection of Jhansi district over a period of 12 years. Landsat TM and Landsat ETM + data from U S Geological Survey (1996, 2008) and Survey of India toposheets (2006) have been used for the delineation of classes and district boundary. A study of spatial and temporal changes in Land use / Land cover (LULC) is conducted using Remote Sensing and GIS techniques. ArcGIS 9.3 and ERDAS Imag...

It is mainly governed by the topography of the terrain. Geographical Information System and Image Processing Techniques can be used for the identification of morphological features and analyzing properties of the basin. The morphometric parameters include linear, areal and relief aspects. ‘Watershed Atlas of India’ (2014) on 1:50,000 scale is an important digital database for planning and monitoring of development programs on a watershed basis. It serves as a uniform baseline for developing a hydrological unit-based data bank to be used for the management of water resources in the country. Run-off, sedimentation, water balance, evapotranspiration and...

Morphometric analysis of the drainage system is an important aspect of characterization of a watershed as all the hydrologic and geomorphic process occur within the watershed. The morphometric analysis of the drainage basin and channel network play a vital role for understanding the geo-hydrological behavior of drainage basin and expresses the prevailing climate, geology, geomorphology, structural, etc. antecedents of the catchment. Detailed morphometric analysis of Bidoli Gad (tributary of Pashchimi Nayar River,Gargwal Himalaya) helps to understanding the influence of drainage morphometric network on landforms and their characteristics. The Bidoli Gad Riverhave 4ͭ ͪ orders of streams. Keeping in view all such hydrological issues, the all orders streams have been taken into account under the present study. Secondary data such as Landsat Data, toposheets (SOI) has been used to delineate the boundary of river basin and Arc Map 10.1, and other statistics software has been used for mapping and creating DEM of the study area. The analysis has revealed that the total number as well as the total length of segment is maximum in first order streams and decreases as stream order increase. Present work will help to understand the morphometric characteristics for researcher and planner. Introduction There is diversity in landform on the earth surface. These landform are described after paying attention about the roles of geomorphic processes and historical events. This all makes one to understand the landform development and the effect of geomorphic processes affected mainly by human beings. The analysis of the watershed and rock structure on earth surface provides a framework for ecosystem management which is currently one of the best options for conservation and management of natural resources. The water cycle regulates and reflects the natural variability of the physical processes which affect the ecosystems. Keeping these facts, the

It is a key component of population composition and reflects both state and direction of economic development of an area. The changes in proportion of workers engaged in various occupations provide an idea about the diversification of economy of a society or region. In other words, economic power of a country and/or region depends, largely, on the productive population engaged in various economic activities. The level of economic development and the rise in income increase as more and more workforce shifts from primary sector to secondary and tertiary sectors. In the light of this background, this paper attempts to analyze the share of population in various economic activities and their pattern at block level in respect to Jaunpur district lying in Eastern Uttar Pradesh. Occupational data for the three successive censuses - 1991, 2001 and 2011 have been used for this purpose. To examine the variations / comparisons the data have been converted into percentage form. Further, the location quotient for each block has been computed to measure intensity of specialization in a particular economic activity.
