What are the adverse effects of multi-purpose river valley projects ? |
|
Answer» ). Adverse effect on the fertility of the soil:- Due to construction of dams, there are no annual floods in the river. And because of this, the soil of the downstream region does not get nutrient rich silt. This decreases the fertility of the soil. ii). Adverse impact on aquatic life:- Due to construction of dams on the rivers, the fish in the downstream area do not get sufficient nutrients material. Regulating and damming of rivers affect the natural flow of water causing poor sediment flow of downward, and excessive sedimentation at the BOTTOM of reservoir. Dams ALSO FRAGMENT rivers making it difficult for aquatic fauna to migrate for spawning i.e., to produce eggs. iii ) Displacement of local communities:- The building of large dams results in displacement of local communities. The local people often have to give up their land and livelihood and their meagre (scant in amount) access and control over resources for the greater food of the nation. iv) Change in the cropping pattern:- Multipurpose projects are responsible for providing assured means of irrigation to farmers. Due to this, most of farmers have changed the cropping pattern SHIFTING to water intensive and commercial crops. This has lead to SALINISATION of soil leading to ecological imbalance. |

If you look at the map of india you will be different types of land forms and water body .How do you think these affect the climate of a place? Please urgent... |
|
Answer» Landform and water body has a great impact on climate. It needs to be understood that Weather deals with short DURATION say a few days, while climate is a regional phenomenon which does not change. Landforms and water bodies can affect both short-term weather and long-term climate. The Spinning Earth: Because Earth's on its own axis in a counter-clockwise direction. Therefore, MAJOR weather systems in the Northern Hemisphere generally is driven move from west to east. This system travel over landforms or bodies of water, they may gain or lose heat and moisture content accordingly. Mountains and Rainfall: TALL Himalayan mountain ranges act as an obstacle to traveling air masses, pushing them to rise over their lofty peaks. Accordingly, ambient TEMPERATURES drop. water vapor cools, fog is formed, and rain or snow may fall on the wind direction of the mountain. When the same air mass descends on the other side of the mountain, it carries a minimal amount of water vapor. Oceans: Air masses that travel over water bodies often PICK up a substantial amount of water vapor. In the case of an ocean, the air mass may contain more amount of moisture when it reaches the far shore. |

Mechanical weathering is less effective in humid climate |
|
Answer» Weathering is the alteration and breakdown of rock minerals and rock masses when they are exposed to the ATMOSPHERE. Weathering processes occur in situ, that is, in the same place, with no major MOVEMENT of rock materials involved. Weathering is a fundamental Earth process. Weathering changes rocks from a hard state, to become much softer and weaker, making them more easily eroded. Weathering Processes Two main groups of weathering processes are identified, with a third supporting group: Physical weathering: the group of processes, such as frost wedging and volume changes of minerals, that result in the mechanical disruption of rocks (e.g. granular DISINTEGRATION, exfoliation, joint block separation, shattering by changes in temperature or pressure). Chemical weathering: the decay of rock forming minerals caused by water, temperature, oxygen, hydrogen and mild acids (e.g. solution, hydration, oxidation, carbonation). Biological weathering: the group of processes that are caused by, or assisted by, the presence of vegetation, or to a lesser extent animals, including root wedging and the production of organic acids. The type of weathering processes that occur at any particular location depend predominantly upon the climate: Physical weathering: mechanical processes dominate in cold and dry climates. Chemical weathering: processes of mineral decay dominate in warm and humid climates. Biological weathering: vegetation, and animals, tend to be more active in warm and humid climates. Weathering Controls The type, rate and extent of weathering depends upon several controlling factors: Climate dictates the type of weathering processes that OPERATE, largely by determining the amount of water available and the temperature at which the processes occur. Chemical reactions are faster at higher temperatures, while frost wedging occurs in colder climates. Rock Type determines the resistance of the rock to the weathering processes that operate in that particular environment. Each rock type is composed of a particular set of minerals, which are joined together by crystallisation, chemical bonding or cementing. When the forces of plate tectonics move these rocks from the environment in which they formed and expose them to the atmosphere they begin to weather. Rock Structure: highly jointed or faulted rocks present many planes of weakness along which weathering agents can penetrate into the rock mass Topography: the slope angle determines the energy of the weathering system by controlling the rate at which water passes through the rock mass. Generally, higher, or tectonically active areas with steeper slopes have more dynamic weathering systems, whereas flat plains have slower weathering systems. Erosion: the dynamism and efficiency of erosion determines how rapidly any weathered material is removed, how frequently fresh rock is exposed to weathering, and if deeply weathered profiles are preserved. Time: the duration of the period that the same type of weathering has been operating, uninterrupted by climatic change, earth movements, and other factors, determines the degree and depth to which the rocks have been weathered. Weathering Products Weathering gradually weakens rocks, and eventually produces new geological materials (rock fragments, sands, silts and clays) that are more stable in the new environment. Weathering generally produces finer and less dense rock materials, and weaker, more porous and permeable rock masses. In the tropics and subtropics, intense weathering in the hot and humid conditions produces thick weathered profiles, which may be up to 100 metres, or more, thick. Weathering processes penetrate down discontinuities (planes of weakness), such as faults and joints, in the rock mass and then attack the faces of the joint-bounded blocks, penetrating the solid blocks. Weathering preferentially attacks the corners and edges of the joint blocks, causing them to become rounded. This action is assisted by stress RELEASE, which causes the rock to flake into curved shells in a process termed exfoliation. Rounded corestones with curved exfoliation shells in a weathered quartz monzonite. Weathering of some rock types, such as the granitic rocks and the coarse ash tuffs, results in the development of thick weathered profiles that are characterised by rounded boulders (corestones) set in a matrix of weak, silty, clayey, sandy material. These corestone-bearing profiles are a distinctive feature of many cut-slopes in the urban areas of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. The downward limit of weathering may be irregular and diffuse, but in many cases terminates abruptly at a well-defined horizon (Figure 6). This boundary is termed the weathering front by geomorphologists, or rockhead by engineers. The components of a typical corestone-bearing weathered profile in granitic rocks |

Instances of indian migrating to other countries have been noticed in the historical times |
|
Answer» India has one of the world's most diverse and complex migration histories. Since the 19th century, ethnic Indians have ESTABLISHED communities on every continent as well as on islands in the Caribbean and the Pacific and Indian oceans. The composition of flows has evolved over time from mainly indentured labor in far-flung colonies to postwar labor for British industry to high-skilled professionals in North America and low-skilled workers in the Middle East. In addition, ethnic Indians in countries like Kenya and Suriname have migrated to other countries, a movement called secondary migration. This profile provides a broad overview of Indian migration flows and major populations worldwide, both in the past and more recently, as well as their remittances and contributions to India. It then discusses India's POLICIES toward its diaspora, India's own immigration policies, and immigration to India, including ECONOMIC migrants from Nepal, refugees and ASYLUM seekers from the region, and illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. |
