Abstract: | River corridors encompass an area around and adjacent to the present channel where fluvial erosion, channel evolution, and down-valley meander migration are most likely to occur. These areas used to have a great deal of damage occurring during flooding. These river corridors are always vulnerable to flooding during the monsoon and have a risk to the infrastructures near them. Thus, there is an ultimate need for river corridor management. This type of management merely depends upon the river geography, surficial geology, valley shape, and slope of the river flow. In addition, these river plains are always the target for various human encroachment. so these river corridors need to be properly maintained considering all the landscapes and infrastructures around them to minimize the risk and damage caused by the rivers. |
Description: | Every Human settlement and civilization emerges and develops near the origins of the riverside. Those riversides were suitable locations due to the easy availability of drinking water and irrigation purpose for agriculture. |
