“…Moreover, the length of overland flow, along with these parameters, indicates a medium flow path with low to gentle slopes. Analysis of these parameters supports the identification of hazard potential zones [ 62 , 117 , 125 , 126 ], groundwater availability and recharge potential zones [ 10 , 56 , 58 , 104 , 114 , 115 ] and agricultural suitability zones. The areas containing lower-order streams and moderate to very steep slopes are highly vulnerable to landslides and flash floods [ 61 , 93 , 117 , 126 ].…”

“…The discharge will be higher in these regions of the Halda Basin. Water travel time in these areas will be low, but high rainfall can cause flash floods [ 63 , 117 , 125 , 126 ]. The spatial distribution indicates the presence of the Halda basin in subtropical humid climate zones [ 122 ], which was difficult to infer from the overall basin value.…”

Among the environmental hazards , ood in North Bengal plain express a unique variation from the foothill to southern most oodplains. It is typi ed by the anthropgenetic impact as bridge constructions. The ood hazard rate along the channel disclose that the probability exist both in upstream and downstream of the bridges ,even far downstream near the con uences of river Lish, Gish and Chel. It is furthermost justi ed by the ood susceptibility map and validated by AUC curve. The parameters as depth(m),velocity(m/sec) and debris factor are considered for ood rate computation and for susceptibility weightage to the parameters have been assigned using FUZZY-AHP. Both the result justify that in river Chel downstream section is more affected than upstream part comparing river Lish and Gish. River Gish experiences both in up and downward section. However, near bridges ood rate increase and then alteration is found. Mostly agricultural lands in lower ood plains, tea gardens in alluvial fan area and settlements are under the ood coverage area. It disclose the probable factors like distance from the foothill to bridge, grain size (D50), volume of discharge (cumec − 1 ) etc.
