Groundwater, being a vital resource, needs to be developed with proper understanding about its occurrence in time and space. Unscientific sand mining is a dominant environmental issue in this humid tropical river basin namely Bharathapuzha river basin geographically on central part of Kerala state, southwest part of India. The sandy layers along the river course declines its water holding capac...

A computer-aided 3-dimensional (3D) visualization operation simulation system based on computer-aided design (CAD) Unigraphics NX and Mimics software was established to provide orthopedic surgeons with an actual and reliable system in treating of distal femoral fracture.According to the preoperative CT data, 3D reconstruction of the distal femoral fracture could be achieved by the Mimics softwa...

the maxillary first premolar may present large number of anatomic variations. the clinician should be aware of the configuration of the pulp system. maxillary first premolars usually have two canals. the incidence of three canals in these teeth is quite rare. this case report presents the diagnosis and clinical management of a maxillary first premolar with two distinct canals in the apical thir...

a simple, rapid and sensitive spectrophotometric method has been proposed for the determinationof vanadium (iv). the method is based on the catalytic effect of v (iv) on the oxidation of alkali blue bypotassium bromate at ph 4. the rate of decrease in the absorbance of alkali blue (at 572 nm) wasproportional to the concentration of v (iv) in the range of 100-6000 ng ml-1. the detection limit wa...

the late eocene-early oligocene sarnowsar granitic rocks and many dacitic to rhyolitic dykesintruded in metamorphosed and metasomatized shale, sandstone, calcite and dolomite marbles andvolcaniclastic and pyroclastic rocks. as a result several million tons of iron ores formed within carbonaterocks in the sangan area. the sarnowsar granitic rocks are mainly granite to granodiorite, metaluminous,...

Resourcesat-1 satellite offers a unique opportunity of simultaneous observations at three different spatial scales through LISSIV, LISS-III (improved LISS-III) and AWiFS sensors from a common platform. The sensors have enhanced capabilities in terms of spectral, spatial and radiometric resolution as compared to earlier Indian Remote sensing Satellite sensors. This paper summarizes the results o...

Remote sensing offers an efficient and reliable means of collecting the information required, in order to map crop type and acreage. Besides providing a synoptic view, remote sensing can provide structure information about the health of the vegetation. The spectral reflectance of a field will vary with respect to changes in the phenology (growth), stage type, and crop health, and thus can be me...
