Association of ENSO and IOD with Summer Monsoon Rainfall Variability over Central India
Abstract: Present study aims to unfold the trend of summer monsoon (JJAS) rainfall for past 114 years (1901–2014) over central India (16.5°N to 26.5° N, 74.5°E to 86.5°E). Further its variability over a long-term time-scale and association with ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) and IOD (Indian Ocean Dipole) like events and further investigated that has more significant association. Due to a significant contribution of summer monsoon (JJAS) rainfall to annual rainfall, …

Observed Seasonal Variation Of Wave Power From Moored Buoy Measurements - A Case Study On The East Coast of India
Abstract: The wave climate in Indian waters is strongly influenced by the seasonal variation. Accurate wave height assessment is crucial for wave power computation which is proportional to square of the significant wave height. Any error in wave height is magnified in the wave power estimation. Wave models tend to predict medium range wave activity to a desired degree. Insufficient wind, bathymetry and grid resolutions, model physics parameterizations also account for …

Review of Construction's Impacts on Marine Areas
Abstract: In order to manage flooding, generate electricity, facilitate shipping, support agriculture, and advance industry, dams have greatly benefited human society. The development of dams, however, seems to have a significant impact on neighbouring coastal areas and the natural ecosystems downstream. This review utilises contemporary studies to thoroughly examine how dam construction has impacted river hydrology, geomorphology, and ecology of lower stream reaches globally in order to synthesise these impacts. The …

Texture Based Segmentation of Remotely Sensed Images
Abstract: Texture based segmentation approach extracts homogeneous regions that have similar texture properties. The texture patterns make use of the gray scale relationship between the center pixel and its surrounding neighbors. In this paper, a novel method is proposed that encodes the spatial relationship between adjacent pairs of neighbors on either side of the center pixel including itself along the given directions in an image. The novelty of the proposed method …

Shanghai Rankings of Global Universities (2020) and Status of Indian Universities
Abstract: Academic ranking of world universities (ARWU) 2020 is released as usual on 15 August by Shanghai Ranking Consultancy of China. ARWU has been presenting the ranking of world's Top 500 universities annually since 2004 but in 2020, ranking of 1000 global universities has been projected. It is unfortunate that none of the Indian universities and IITs find a slot among the Top 500. Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore was placed …

Optimization of Culture Conditions for the Mass Cultivation of Amphora coffeaeformis: A Promising Marine Diatom for Biodiesel Production
Abstract: Microalgae are promising primary producers involved in sustainable energy. As the oceanic environments are dwindling environments the primary productivity is influenced by light and temperature thereby altering the biochemical composition of the algae Amphora coffeaeformis, being a marine organism can be grown in varied environments, however for higher yield of biomass and lipid production simple modifications in the culture conditions is required. This study helps to exploit this species for …

Morphological Dynamic of Ekakula Spit and Kalam Island in Kendrapara District of Odisha—A Geospatial Approach
Abstract: Odisha Coast of India is about 480 km long stretching and oriented in a SW-NE direction. The sediment contributions from the rivers are deposited along the coast. The littoral drift deposition builds spits and bars at the river mouths especially at the southern side of the river mouths. The one of the study area is situated between 20°40’57.417”N and 20°45’49.947”N latitude and 87°1’5.576” E and 87°7’4.959”E longitude. Another is the …
