The Central Indian Highland landscape (CIHL) represents a complex, diverse, and highly human-modified system. Nearly half the landscape is cropland, yet it hosts 21 protected areas surrounded and connected by forests. Changing farming practices with increasing access to irrigation might alter this intensifying landscape in the near future particularly in light of weather variability. We analyzed a decade of remote sensing data for cropping patterns and climatic factors combined with census data for irrigation and demographic factors to understand winter cropping trajectories in the CIHL. We quantified ‘productive cropped area’ (PCA), defined as the area with planted crop that is green at the peak of the winter growing season. We find three primary trajectories in PCA—increasing, fluctuating, and decreasing. The most dominant trend is fluctuating PCA in two-thirds of the districts, ranging from ~2.11 million to ~3.73 million ha between 2001 and 2013, which is associated with village-level access to irrigation and local labor dynamics. In 58 % of all districts, clay soils were associated with winter cropping (p < 0.05). Increasing irrigation is associated with increased winter PCA in most (94 %) districts (p < 0.00001). We find strong negative association between PCA and land surface temperature (LST) in most (66 %) districts (p < 0.01). LST closely corresponds to daytime mean air temperature (p < 0.001) for available meteorological stations. Fine-scale meteorological and socioeconomic data, however, are needed to further disentangle impacts of these factors on PCA in this landscape. 相似文献

The present study investigated the chemical composition of wet atmospheric precipitation over Dhanbad, coal city of India.
The precipitation samples were collected on event basis for three years (July 2003 to October 2005) at Central Mining Research
Institute. The precipitation samples were analyzed for pH, conductivity, major anions (F, Cl, NO3, SO4) and cations (Ca, Mg, Na, K, NH4). The pH value varied from 4.01 to 6.92 (avg. 5.37) indicating acidic to alkaline nature of rainwater. The pH of the rainwater
was found well above the reference pH (5.6), showing alkalinity during the non-monsoon and early phase of monsoon, but during
the late phase of monsoon, pH tendency was towards acidity (<5.6~pH) indicating the non-availability of proper neutralizer
for acidic ions. The observed acidic events at this site were 91, (n = 162) accounting 56% for the entire monitoring months. The (NO3 + Cl)/SO4 ratio in majority of samples was found below 1.0, indicating that the acidity is greatly influenced by SO4. The calculated ratio of (Ca + NH4)/(NO3 + SO4) ranges between 0.42–5.13 (average 1.14), however in most of the samples, the ratio is greater than unity (>1.0) indicating
that Ca and NH4 play an important role in neutralization of acidic ions in rainwater. Ca and SO4 dominate the bulk ionic deposition and these two ions along with NH4 accounts 63% of the annual ionic deposition. 相似文献

A novel, sensitive, and rapid UV spectrophotometric and colorimetric method was developed for estimation of etizolam (ETZ) in bulk and tablet. The UV spectrophotometric method (method I) is based on quantitative estimation of ETZ using 0.1N NaOH as the solvent which exhibits maximal absorption at 378 nm. Colorimetric methods (method II and III) were based on the formation of color complex in association with ions between basic nitrogen of the drug with methyl orange (MO) and bromocresol green (BCG) in acidic medium. The formed color complexes were quantitatively extracted with chloroform and measured at 509 nm for Drug–MO complex and at 442 nm for Drug–BCG complex, respectively. Beer's law was obeyed over the linear ranges 2–16 µg/ml (method I), 5–45 µg/ml (method II), and 2–20 µg/ml (method III). The correlation coefficient (r2) for ETZ was 0.999, 0.997, and 0.998 for method I, II, and III, respectively. All methods were successfully applied for the assay of the drug in tablet. The % purity was found to be 98.52 (method I), 98.72 (method II), and 99.18 (method III). These developed methods were fully validated with % relative standard deviation (RSD) for accuracy less than 2 for all methods. The % RSD of the intra-day and inter-day variations was found to be less than 2%. The limit of detection and quantitation were as follows: 0.108 µg/ml and 0.327 µg/ml (method I), 0.24 µg/ml and 0.75 µg/ml (method II), 0.1 µg/ml and 0.5 µg/ml (method III) indicating marked method sensitivity. Empirical evidence from all three methods concludes that developed methods are simple, sensitive, and reliably validated for useful routine quality control analysis of ETZ. 相似文献

Groundwater in a tannery belt in Southern India is being polluted by the discharge of untreated effluents from 80 operating
tanneries. Total dissolved solids and chloride (Cl−) measurements in open wells in the tannery cluster vary from 27,686 to 39,100 and 12,000 to 13,652 mg/l, respectively. A
mass transport model was constructed using Visual MODFLOW Premium 4.4 software to investigate the chloride migration in an
area of 75.56 km2. Input to the chloride migration model was a groundwater flow model that considered steady and transient conditions. This
model was calibrated with field observations; and sensitivity analysis was carried out whereby model parameters, viz., conductivity,
dispersivity, and source concentration were altered slightly, and the effect on calibration statistics was evaluated. Results
indicated that hydraulic conductivity played a more sensitive role than did dispersivity. The Cl− migration was mainly through advection rather than dispersion. It was found that even if the pollutant load reduced to 50%
of the present level, the Cl− concentration in groundwater, even after 6 years, would not be reduced to the permissible limit of drinking water in the
tannery belt. 相似文献

Lakshadweep is a group of 36 coral islands scattered in the Arabian Sea off the western coast of India. On such small tiny islands, groundwater is the only source of fresh water for the islanders. Due to the growing population on these islands, demand for fresh water is also increasing and on the other side the peculiar hydrologic, geologic and geomorphic features restrict the availability of groundwater. Therefore, a proper understanding of the groundwater condition is important in order to meet this increasing demand and also to formulate future development and management strategies. Detailed hydrogeological, geophysical and hydrochemical studies have been carried out to identify potential fresh groundwater resources and quantify vulnerable parts of Andrott Island, Union Territory of Lakshadweep. Systematic collection and analysis of hydrological, geophysical and hydrochemical data reveal that fresh groundwater is only available between 2.5 to 5.0 m depths and provide an early sign of deterioration in groundwater quality in the peripheral parts of eastern and western coasts of this island. It suggests immediate measures for arresting the deterioration in groundwater quality as well as augmentation for restoration of aquifer in some parts of the island. 相似文献

Heavy metals in the environment may be toxic for human and animals. Tanneries are a source of pollution by heavy metals. There is little information on heavy metals pollution in tanneries, especially on metals produced by the process of hair burning and liming. Liming is the first stage of chemical treatment where animal hair or wool is removed with sodium sulphide and calcium oxide. Here we studied cow, goat, buffalo and sheep hair, conventional liming agents and liming wastewaters from several sources. Samples were acid-digested and aliquots were analysed by atomic absorption spectroscopy following APHA standard method to measure concentrations of arsenic, lead, cadmium, zinc, manganese and iron. Results show that the range of metal contents in hair or wool and liming agents are 1.3–8.2 mg/kg for arsenic, 0.02–21.8 mg/kg for lead, 17.7–121.0 mg/kg for manganese, 7.3–141.1 mg/kg for zinc and 119.6–10613.8 mg/kg for iron. Liming wastewaters contain 1.9–5.6 µg/L arsenic, 0.03–6.05 µg/L lead, 38.6–139.0 µg/L manganese, 144.0–171.5 µg/L zinc and 399.5–1069.0 µg/L iron. Cadmium was below detection limits. This is the first investigation that reveals that hair burning liming operation is a potential source of heavy metals in the environment. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to investigate the adsorption capacity of carbaryl on four Indian soils with different physiochemical properties. A batch adsorption study was carried out in order to evaluate the maximum adsorption capacity of carbaryl using a Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The effects of operating parameter such as initial carbaryl concentration (1–20 mgL?1), adsorbent dosage (0.5–6 g) and contact time (10–180 min) were examined. The proposed quadratic model for Box-Behnken design fits very well to the experimental data because it may be used to navigate design space according to ANOVA results. The regression co-efficient (R2) of the models developed and the results of validation experiments conducted at optimal conditions strongly suggests that the predicted values are in good agreement with experimental results. Contour and response surface plots are used to determine the interactions effects of main factors and optimal conditions of the process. The experiment can be utilized as a guideline for better understanding of carbaryl adsorption onto soil under different operating conditions. The results show that the forest soil is most efficient in binding carbaryl (Sevin) than the other types of soil tested. 相似文献
