RunoffCoefficients

Since watershed characteristics are different for all the eight watersheds, the watershed run
off coefficients have been calculated by taking weighted average of area under particular
terrain type and the corresponding runoff coefficient.

Hazard Coping Strategies

Flood Vulnerability Reduction Strategies

Appropriate designing roads (critical/flood prone areas)
Storm water drains (to ensure sufficient discharge of run off)
Plantations at the suitable locations (reduce runoff)
Identification of the safe sites for shelter during flood
Increasing the water storage capacity in NIE which can support the landscape
landscapess
water requirements

Erosion Hazards
Landscape in the erosion prone area.

Heat / High temperature

Increasing the green belts around the identified high temperature stretches to
control micro climate and there by reduce the effect of high temperature
