Intercomparison of Parameter Estimation Methods of EVI Distribution for Rainfall Frequency Analysis
Abstract: For planning, design and management of civil and hydraulic structures, estimation of extreme rainfall for a given return period is considered as one of the important parameters. This can be achieved through Extreme Value Analysis (EVA) by fitting of Extreme Value Type-I (EVI) distribution to the observed data. In this paper, a comparative study on determination of parameters of EVI distribution by eight different methods such as graphical method, method …

Spatiotemporal Analysis of Wetlands in Ranchi Urban Area, Jharkhand: Proposed National Level Urban Wetland Census
Abstract: Worldwide urban areas are losing the wetlands without any record of their location and spatial extent. Recording the status of wetlands is required urgently in the present scenario of climate change and environmental degradation. In this context, the present study has been carried in Ranchi Municipal Corporation (RMC) area to analyze the distribution and status of wetlands in two different periods i.e. in the year 2005 and year 2018 using …

Analysis of Thermal Pattern Variation for River Ganges with Satellite Imagery
Abstract: Stream temperature is a fundamental aspect of water quality and ecosystem health of the river affecting its physical, chemical and biological processes; so the monitoring and understanding of the thermal regime of rivers is extremely important. Water temperature affects water quality such as dissolved oxygen, pH, salinity and it also has influence on growth and extent of aquatic organisms. Remote sensing applications can be an effective alternative to the conventional …

Experimental Analysis of Physical Parameters in Treated Water
Abstract: During the first phase, the surface water treatment plant at Saidabad treats 225 million liters of water per day. In the treated water, turbidity, color, total coliform, fecal coliform, and hardness are reduced; on the other hand, conductivity and total dissolved solids increase. In the wet season, turbidity is high due to relatively coarse particle dispersions in river water. All other parameters, such as color, total and fecal coliform, hardness, …
