Effect of waterbodies on the quality of groundwater in coastal areas of South 24 Parganas in West Bengal, India

July 19, 2020

The effect of waterbodies (sea, river or canal) on the electrical conductivity of the piezo-water at high and low tide is analysed. It is found that quality of twelve piezo-water samples up to a depth of 160 330 m is not dependent on the quality of surface waterbodies like rivers or canals. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/340165732_Effect_of_waterbodies_on_the_quality_of_groundwater_in_coastal_areas_of_South_24_Parganas_in_West_Bengal_India

Prediction of drought and flood years in eastern India using lengths of runs of annual rainfall

July 19, 2020

65 years, 83 years, 84 years, 86 years and 87 years annual rainfall data of 10 raingauge stations in eastern India were analysed for prediction of drought and flood years using runs of annual rainfalls. Both for the entire period of studies and the period after 1950 it was observed that 2 years excess of […]

Role of legume crop rotation in rice-based cropping sequence in managing soil salinity problem and in maintaining soil fertility and rice productivity in coastal alluvial soil

September 17, 2012

Introduction  Land and water are the two most vital natural resources of the world and these are under tremendous stress due to the ever increasing biotic pressure. Accelerated land degradation caused by soil erosion, waterlogging, salinization, alkalization, acidification, fertility depletion, physical and biological deterioration affecting about fifty percent of the land area, adds to the […]

RHA (Rice Husk Ash) in ameliorating soil salinity, alkalinity and acidity

September 15, 2012

Rice husk is a by-product of the rice milling industry. It is also abundantly available.  Rice husk is a residue produced in significant quantity on a global basis.  While they are used as a fuel in some regions, in other countries they are treated as waste, causing pollution and disposal problems.  Due to growing environmental […]

Arsenic content of groundwater got reduced through storage in ponds

July 4, 2012

Batteries of sedimentation ponds and channels

An inventory survey (1998-2000) was conducted on land and water use pattern in  Gotera mauza  under new alluvial zone of the Gangetic delta in West Bengal. The survey revealed that ponds were continuously filled with arsenic contaminated groundwater through peoples’ practice of filling the ponds with Tubewell water in non-rainy periods mainly during pre-monsoon (April […]

In quest of a pattern in annual rainfalls

July 4, 2012

Heat from the sun vis-à-vis evaporation and rainfall: Cause and effect Sun is the source of all energies. Heat  from the sun is the driving force in the earth’s hydrological cycle. It is due to the attraction of the sun that earth and the other planets move in their respective orbits. The amount of heat […]

Mauza wise water conservation

May 28, 2012

Farm pond

Mauza wise or village wise water conservation is hydrologically proved to be the most beneficial method for conserving rainwater as excess surface run-off from an area or watershed. https://water-soil.org/hydrological-balance-planning-irrigation-coastal-areas This method of rainwater conservation is very much useful where annual rainfall is sufficient enough to fill the dugouts. Natural low depression points are generally selected […]

Fringe areas greatly influence the development of the Sunderbans

May 25, 2012

Fringe Areas in the Sunderbans

Either of the expansion of conventional agriculture in the community development block or the development of the forest by itself can not exclusively address the problems of Sunderbans Biosphere Reserve (SBR). Only the development of fringe areas can claim to have a solution for the development of SBR. This is because the total character of […]

Agroclimatic analysis for onset of agricultural drought period in a coastal area

May 13, 2012

Agroclimatic data analysis for onset of agricultural drought in a coastal area

    Studies on air temperature are necessary for assessing climatic conditions favourable for growing crops and also for altering the cropping pattern, if necessary, on the basis of hydrological balance in a particular area. Contai (21 ̊47´.15 N Lat ) coastal area by the northern shore of the Bay of Bengal is a well […]
