Abstract
Alluvial records are terrestrial repository of information on environmental changes that occurred in the geological past in a region. The soil profile properties are seen to be dependent on climatic and vegetation inputs as well as on parent material and in all ill-defined way on relief. However precisely what aspects of the relief are important has never been adequately established. This has been investigated in this paper. Environmental conditions are inferred generally from surface and buried soils of such bodies of sediment which have been deposited pen-contemporaneous with and subsequent to each environmental change. Based on pedagogical aspects of alluvial soils particularly soil layering (verves) texture profile features along palaeoslopes, detailed analysis of relief features reconstruction of palaeohydrology of Hasdeo river basin has been worked out. The stratigraphy, morphology and Sub – fossils of colluvialdeposited in the area of study have adequately revealed palaeohydrological conditions of the Hasdeo drainage basin.
