Zorluk: Çok zorState Geography and Physical Features

Arrange the following major rivers flowing through Odisha in sequential order from North to South based on the latitudinal position of their river mouths along the East Coast of India.

  1. 1Subarnarekha River
  2. 2Baitarani River
  3. 3Mahanadi River
  4. 4Rushikulya River
  5. 5Vamsadhara River

Cevap

The correct sequential order from North to South is Subarnarekha River, Baitarani River, Mahanadi River, Rushikulya River, and Vamsadhara River.
The correct North-to-South latitudinal arrangement of Odisha's coastal rivers begins with Subarnarekha River in the far north, followed sequentially by Baitarani River, Mahanadi River forming the central delta, Rushikulya River in southern Odisha, and Vamsadhara River at the southernmost boundary.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the coastal discharge latitude of the northernmost Odisha river
Subarnarekha River discharges into the Bay of Bengal at approx. 21°33' N near Kirtania in Balasore district, placing it northernmost.
Establishing the northern boundary of the state's coastal river system.
2
Determine the spatial sequence of central coastal river basins
Baitarani River empties near Dhamra at approx. 20°48' N, followed southwards by the primary delta outlets of the Mahanadi River near Paradeep at approx. 20°16' N.
Ordering the central coastal drainage systems of Odisha.
3
Identify the southern coastal and trans-boundary rivers
Rushikulya River enters the sea near Puruna Bandha at approx. 19°22' N, while Vamsadhara River flows south of Rushikulya through Rayagada/Gajapati to reach the sea at Kalingapatnam at approx. 18°20' N.
Completing the geographic sequence down to the southern border area.
