Effect of Groundwater Quality on Concrete Structures in Greater Noida: A Case Study
Abstract: In this study, firstly selected ten different locations in the Greater Noida region; then collected the ground water samples from these locations. The present study proposes the possible effect of groundwater quality on the concrete structures. It also proposes a realistic water quality on the structures. The chemical present in groundwater generally are pH, chloride, sulphate, acidity, and alkalinity. It is proposed to consider these parameters in the present study …

NDVI: Irrigation Performance Evaluation Using RS and GIS
Abstract: In this paper, the effect of irrigation has been assessed based on fluctuations in crop productivity in temporal and spatial scale from normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) obtained from moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) for the years 2001, 2006, 2011 and 2016. For this study, we selected the Jayakwadi reservoir command areas in Marathawada region of Maharashtra. Using GIS techniques, delineated and LULC map was generated indicating agricultural lands. And …
