Morphometric Analysis of Ansupa Lake, Odisha using GIS Technique
Abstract: Basin morphometry is a means of numerically analyzing or mathematically quantifying different aspects of a drainage basin. In the present study, morphometric analysis of the Ansupa lake Catchment has been carried using earth observation data and geographical information system (GIS) techniques. The morphometric parameters considered for analysis includes the linear, areal and relief aspects of the basin. The study has strengthened in understanding the hydrological, geological and geomorphological characteristics of …
