Abstract

Morphometric Analysis of Pat River Basin in around Kajlidongri area, Meghnagar Block, Jhabua District,  Madhya Pradesh, India, has been carried out with main purpose to recognize the characteristics of drainage  basin. The morphometric analysis of Pat River basin in around Kajlidongri area, covering an area of 68  km2. The Pat River drainage basin is divided into six sub-basins A, B, C, D, E and F. The outcome of  linear, areal and relief parameters recognized a good variation range and their importance have been  discussed. The result of morphometric analysis would be helpful in determining the recharge zone,  permeability of sub-basin area, groundwater potential sites and evolution of the Pat River drainage basin  characteristics plays a significant role in the development of groundwater resources in the study area.
