摘要：

Ramganga River is characterized by frequent planform changes in its lower reaches. The plain topography and frequent floods occurrence are powerful agents to change the river morphology. This paper presents a detailed account of channel planform dynamics of River from 1780 to 2017. Spatial data were analyzed in GIS to determine changes in sinuosity, centerline migration rates and large-scale dynamics of the River. The results revealed its overall shifting towards south-west direction. In upstream, planform repeatedly oscillated in its floodplain. In the downstream, a highly stable reach is found which does not show any significant shifting character in last 50 years, but a major avulsion of 11 km is found in its confluence with the Ganges. The study provides recent and reliable information on the channel planform dynamics and will help as a decision support tool for designing and implementation of drainage development works.
