Abstract
This experiment was conducted at Dept.of Soil and Water Conservation and Engineering, CAET, OUAT, Bubaneswar, Odisha, India. It was conducted to estimate the hydrologic parameters of 27E/17 watershed of Kandhamal district under North- eastern ghat zone. In this study the various hydrological parameters of 27E/17 watershed of Kandhamal district was found out using the topo sheet. To carry out this experiment the contour lines were marked to demarcate the high points and the delineation of watershed was done with this the stream line was also marked which carry the runoff from the entire catchment area. Various features of hydrological parameters were found out. Simulating these data the runoff volume could be calculated and the possibilities of construction of river valley projects in that area can be obtained. The shape of the watershed is oval shape. Due to narrow catchments the peak flood intensity is reduced since discharges are likely to be distributed over a long period of time. The drainage density (Dd) was found to be 1.95Km-1 which is a high value and indicates that the basin is moderately impermeable and also high bifurcation ratio indicates higher Dd. It is affected by permeability, climate, vegetation, length of stream.The watershed planning and the cropping pattern of the watershed in the command area has been carried out.
