| Summary: | Tarali river is major tributary of River Krishna, which is flowing in western India. The study area lies
between latitude 17°23' to 17°38' N and longitude 73°48' to 74°7' E. The area has steep to moderate slope and elevation
ranges from 584 - 1171m above mean sea level. Basin exhibits hilly and mountain terrain forming ridges and Western
Ghats with deep valley, plateaus and plain. The whole area can be obtained in topographical maps i.e. 47 G/14, 47
G/15 47 K/2, 47 K/3 covering area of about 627 sq.km, acquired from Survey of India. Present study includes lineament
and morphometric analysis of Tarali River basin for management and conservation of watershed. |
