Abstract

The river Godavari was in floods during 10 to 14 August 1981 from Tekra to Dowaleshwaram. The contribution of individual sub-catchment to this flood has been studied in this paper. Taking each sub-basin as a unit, depth area duration analysis of 3-day storm has been made to assess which of the sub-basins contributed to the flood. This aspect has been brought out by comparing the actual 3-day storm average depth or rainfall with that of normal average depth of rainfall of each sub-basin.
