| Abstract | Earth's changing surface reflects a dynamic linkage between various internal and surface processes. The aim of this ongoing project is to quantify erosion based on morphology combined with climatological data (precipitation) in a tectonically and climatologically very active area. This study is carried out as a consequence of good results in previous works, using both: empirical and deterministic approaches by means of remote sensing data. First: the empirical attempt, the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) with its ability to operate on various, from catchment to area, scales [1]. This approach delivers a good idea about soil erosion, especially when focusing on the sensitivity of soil loss, but not taking big mass transports, like in landslides or by rivers, into account. Second, there is the river profile analysis carried out for various streams individually. This attempt is detachment limited and will not give an accurate idea about what is going on beyond the considered catchment. We want to combine both attempts in one equation to use the strengths of each approach and improve our previous results for a large study area but with comparable fine-resolution. This study should make a contribution to the understanding of the correlation between climatic factors, tectonics, soil erosion and river incision. In contrast to former research we want to create a comprehensive model describing all these relationships only on the basis of remote sensing data. Our model is not limited to the presented study area but applicable anywhere where erosion takes place. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
