Quantitative Analysis of Drainage Basin Parameters towards better Management of Damodar River, Eastern India

The Malakasiotiko stream is one of the tributaries of Pinios River in Western Thessaly. The drainage basin of Malakasiotiko stream is located in the northwestern part of the mountainous zone of Trikala Prefecture. In this paper, the drainage network of Malakasiotiko stream has been analyzed. Additionally, the relationship among the tectonism, the growth directions of the watershed lines, and the drainage network. The quantitative analysis of the drainage network has resulted that the geological and tectonic structure of the area affected, and potentially has been affecting its development. The morphotectonic analysis has shown that the watershed lines of the drainage basin and the streams of 1st to 4th order are influenced by alpine structure, whereas the 5th, 6th and the 7th order streams are influenced by neotectonic activity.

Quantitative analysis of biogenic silica and siliceous microfossils preserved in sediments of McLeod Bay, Great Slave Lake, NWT, Canada, shows increased abundance and modified species composition in more recent sediments. Most of the observed increase has apparently occurred in the post-industrial era. Although McLeod Bay remains highly oligotrophic, increased microfossil flux and changes in species composition indicate increasing nutrient supply. Since there is little apparent anthropogenic modification of the bay's drainage basin or biotic communities, atmospheric transport of nutrients from remote sources may be implicated.
