Abstract

Wetlands are one of the most productive ecosystems and play a significant role in the ecological balance. There are many function of wetland such as hydrological function, which includes groundwater recharge, ground water discharge despite of this it help in flood control and flow regulation. Water regime of Kabartal is determined by inflow from direct precipitation and flooding in nearby river. Direct precipitation is significantly to overall inflow into the lake. There is no any outflow mechanism present around the lake area except drainage channel. Status of wetland totally depends upon rainfall. High departure of rainfall is responsible for the shrinkage of the water. Hydrological analysis helps us for taking any further step for maintaining water balance.
