Abstract

Glacier lake outburst is a recent incident that increases in higher glacier regions. Repeatedly Outbursts of glacier-originated lakes are prime factors for the loss of human lives as well as huge damage to local infrastructure in hilly terrain, which is recognized as hazards or natural calamities or disasters. Dhauliganga River basin is located in Uttarakhand mainly in the Chamoli district. The said research paper addresses how glacier lakes are formed and why these are busted. Data and information about the climatic condition and physical and cultural characteristics of the study area are collected from secondary sources e.g., IMD web portal, news articles, electronic media, census reports, and maps downloaded from USGS that are mapped by the QGIS software. In this research work, the area of a particular glacier zone is measured through the Google Earth software, and the measurement of the area of water bodies e.g., glacial lake with the temporal scale by Normalised Difference Water Index (NDWI), a remote sensing application.  On 7th February 2021, a massive lake outburst happened in Uttarakhand, Chamoli district. Two power projects totally collapsed, many people died, and some are missing. Somehow, behind the occurrence of the glacier lake outburst (GLOF) global warming is one of the reasons for it. Anthropogenic activities influence the cause of temperature increase and climate change.

Abstract

India is a country of rivers. Sundarban is the world’s largest deltaic region, which is also part of the Ganga region. Highly populated this region is frequently faced intensive floods. The objective of this paper is to give a notion about the potential embankment zone along the Vidyadhari River. Changes in riverbanks since 1972 have been highlighted through GIS and Remote Sensing Applications. Through this paper, erosional and depositional zones along the Vidyadhari River are also spotted out. The potential embankment zone is measured by the vulnerability analysis based on river bank shifting. The proper embankment technology has also suggested a sustainable embankment along the river Vidyadhari river, which is guided by the Irrigation Department, Government of West Bengal.

Abstract

This research paper shows the beach segment-wise (viz., nearshore, surfing, sub-aerial, and backshore) textural characteristics and their impact on the formation of beach profiles. The grain size of the sediments is the most influential factor in the analysis of the geomorphological structure of sedimentation. The energy which is generated by waves and the grain size of sediments can change the structural pattern of the coastal beach. So it is obvious to study sedimentary textural distribution to know their influence on making coastal beaches. Through this research paper, the sedimentary textual distribution is analyzed and also gives their impact on beach shipping. Along longitudinal beach profile samples are collected. The work has been done based on the primary data source by using the field survey method. From this research work, it has been traced that beaches follow the concave pattern profile due to their fine sedimentary textural distribution. Consequently, the beaches of the Kanthi coast are dominantly facing the erosional configuration.

Abstract

As an important component of the urban transportation system, the urban road network plays a crucial role in urban spatial structure, urban traffic operations, and socio-economic activities. The significance of capacity analysis and traffic operations helps in identifying the traffic condition and structure in urban areas in Kolkata city. Traffic congestion is a unique situation when the number of vehicles is much greater than the road-carrying capacity. A growing urban area creates complex problems in daily life with traffic. Technologies have continued to impact society over the years, improving our standard of living and quality of life. Advances in telecommunications, the Internet of Things, cloud and edge computing, scalable storage, and data analytics have made fast computing and data-empowered insights. Road carrying capacity has been measured using speed modeling, PCU (Passenger Car Unit) method, and vehicle area occupancy method. Sinthi More, Chiria More, Shyambazer, Park Circus 7 point, Sealdah, Central Avenue, Strand Road, Maniktala, Rajabazer,  Girish Park, Science city more, Panchanna Gram, Tapsia More, Minto Park, P.G.Hospital, Hestings, Golpark, Goriahat more, Kalighat, Taratala auto stand, Behala police station, Behala Chowrasta, Patuli Jheel Park, Goria sitala mandir, Green view, Ruby, Nature park, Garden reach police station, Metiabruz, Chowbaga, Ajay Nagar junction points (31survey point) have been taken for this survey. About Thirteen roads have been taken in Kolkata city to do this project. The average vehicle velocity is 19.2 km/h in Kolkata city.
