Integrated Assessment of Soil Health Through Macronutrient Status and Physico-Chemical Properties in Selected Agricultural Blocks of Kangra District, Himachal Pradesh, India
Abstract: Soil health is a critical determinant of agricultural sustainability, particularly in ecologically sensitive Himalayan regions where intensive cultivation and heterogeneous landscapes influence nutrient dynamics. Balanced macronutrient availability, together with favourable physico-chemical properties, governs crop productivity, soil resilience, and long-term ecosystem functioning. Despite the agronomic importance of Kangra District (Himachal Pradesh), localized assessments integrating nutrient status with physico-chemical indicators across representative agricultural blocks remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate soil …

Study of Physical and Chemical Properties of Heavy Waxy Crude Oil from Cambay Basin Using Rheometer and Cross-Polar Microscope
Abstract: Production of heavy crude is quite difficult as the pressure drops from reservoir to production facility are quite large. This often leads to the precipitation and deposition of common organic solids (paraffin). These solids may deposit on surfaces, collect in low-energy regions or increase the effective viscosity of the flowing fluid. The net effect is an increase in pressure drop for a given rate through reduction in flowing area or …
