The Mandovi e Zuari estuarine complex selected for the study is
located in the state of Goa along the central western coast of India.
The Mandovi River originates in the Western Ghats, entering Goa
from the north via the Sattarisub-district, eventually pouring into
the Arabian Sea. The Zuari River, the largest river of Goa, originates
in Hemad-Barshem also in theWestern Ghats. The Cumbarjua canal
(15 km) links the two river channels of Mandovi and Zuari, forming
an estuarine complex which supports a substantial mangrove
extent. In order to study the mangrove distribution, it was imperative
to include the associated physical aspects, especially in the
case of our study region as both rivers intrude deep into the
Western Ghats. Hence, an overlay analysis was done by taking into
consideration all the appropriate physical factors to demarcate the
boundary of the study region.
