i am studing about the barrages and most importantly downswaranam barage
sure
a barrage is a type of low - head , diversion dam which consists of a number of large gates that can be opened or closed to control the amount of water passing through
oh ....
the barrage has good control over the river during the flood . the outflow can be easily regulated by gates
what are the meriets of a barrage?
the water released from barrage used for irrigation
a roadway can be conveniently provided over the structure
that's good
its construction forced many people to leave the place they lived
they change the movement of water into and out of estuaries , which can disrupt the life cycles of certain marine life
