Description 1162-1166
Present
study of the coastal changes in Tadri, Uttara Kannada district of Karnataka,
comparing Survey of India Toposheet, Coastal Zone Management Plan of Karnataka
and traditional ground survey measurement merged with multi temporal satellite
imagery (IRS-P6, LISS III, 2011). This analysis gives the result of erosion
from year 1978 to 1996 is 7.83 km2, during this period no accretion
is noticed. Comparing data set of 1978 with 2011, area of erosion increases to
8.45km2, and accretion by 0.15 km2. And from 1996 to 2011 it is seen erosion of
3.61km2 and accretion of 3.05 km2. Erosion is observed in the northern bank of
Tadri river, the probable cause of erosion is tidal action along the earthen
embankments results in breaching and due to this flood are occurring in the
adjacent area, and an accretion is noticed at the mouth result in narrowing the
shape, due to sediments brought from upper reaches of Tadri river. The present
studies givea scenario of changes and may help authorities to prepare the
better Integrated Coastal Zone Management Plan for coastal protection and
further developments.
