Analysis of Color and Particulate Depolarization Ratio Profiles for Aerosols using CALIPSO Level 2 Data
Abstract: Aerosols have an important impact on Earth’s climate system by absorbing, scattering and modifying cloud properties. There are many sources of aerosols; both natural and resulting from human activities with widely varying distribution both in space and time. In addition to aerosol columnar spatio-temporal variation, the vertical profile temporal studies provide valuable inputs to various climatic models and radiative transfer studies. This study focuses on the analysis of color ratio …

Effective Utilisation of Lowland Eco-System for Water and Crop Productivity in Eastern India
Abstract: AbstractThere is no option other than to increase the food production to meet the increasing demand for food with ever-increasing population growth rate. There is also very little or no scope of horizontal expansion due to land limitation, the question of vertical expansion is the only way to fit with the situation. Genetically improved crop variety, hybrids, mechanized agriculture, higher rate of fertilizers and chemicals application may give one or …
