The beacon of knowledge illumines the symbols of the departments of Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, Geography, Biochemistry, Biotechnology and Statistics. The computers and the conical flasks represent science and technology on the cornerstone of progress. The DNA signifies the mystery of life and inheritance that lends eternity to the wealth of knowledge and wisdom. The diversity of the symbols merge and syncretize in the globe at the centre typifying the study of Earth or Geography. Mother Earth unifies these distinct elements to reflect the conjugation of tradition with technology. Being a centre of learning, the antenna on top signifies the power to capture and disseminate the waves of wisdom among the young scholars to pave the way for a promising future. 1.

The present study was carried out to evaluate the distribution and diversity of oligochaete fauna in selected pondsof Thiruvananthapuram district in Kerala, South India. The sediment samples were collected from three ponds seasonally during the period December 2006 to November 2008. In the study, 10 oligochaete species which belong to 8 genera were identified in three selected ponds. These include Dero digitata, Dero nivea, Dero obtusa, Pristina longiseta, Aulophorus furcatus, Stylaria fossularis, Chaetogaster spp., Aeolosoma spp., Tubifex tubifex and Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri. Tubifex tubifex and Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri are the pollution-indicator oligochaete species identified in the fresh water ponds, which reveals that the studied ponds are subjected to pollution. 1.

  • University Profile & Fact Sheet
    University Profile & Fact Sheet University of Kerala 2016 A PROFILE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KERALA 1. Genesis & Evolution: One of the first 16 Universities in India, the University of Kerala was founded as the University of Travancore in the erstwhile princely state of Travancore (now southern part of Kerala) in 1937. Since then, the University of Kerala has transformed itself in many ways. The earliest origins of the University may be traced back to two institutions of modern learning in Kerala, the University College Thiruvananthapuram and the Trivandrum Observatory1. The University was modeled after the best Universities of the United Kingdom, and even today retains some of these features. The affiliating system of the University, however, evolved to be different from the college system in British Universities. The objective of the University was to effect re-organization of the system of education in the state so as to develop technical, technological education and research in applied science, in addition to promoting Kerala Art and Culture. The Logo of the University depicts a lotus with a conch shell (a symbol of erstwhile state of Travancore) and a traditional book stand with palm leaf manuscript on it, symbolizing scholarship. The motto of the University was drawn from Panchathanthra (a Buddhist work) and reads “Karmani Vyajyathe Prajna” which roughly translates to “Wisdom manifests in action”2 In 1954, the unified state of Kerala came into being. The Kerala University Act was brought into force in 1957 and the University of Travancore was renamed University of Kerala (a name which was considered even in 1937) with jurisdiction all over the state of Kerala.

  • FIRST RECORD of the NEST ORIENTATION of Apis Dorsata in RELATION to CELL TOWERS
    © 2018 JETIR December 2018, Volume 5, Issue 12 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) FIRST RECORD OF THE NEST ORIENTATION OF Apis dorsata IN RELATION TO CELL TOWERS Sainudeen Pattazhy Department of Zoology University of Kerala, Kariavattom, Thiruvananthapuram. Kerala. Abstract: This study is aimed to study the nest orientation of Apis dorsata in relation to cell tower in the Kariavattom panchayat of Thiruvananthapuram district, Kerala. The distributions and orientation of nests were observed around 5 km of cell tower using a survey method . Results showed that 60 nests (40 active nests, 20 abandoned combs) of A. dorsata were found. Tree species used as nesting sites were Ficus sp.(Moraceae), Adenanthera sp.(Fabaceae), Spondias pinnata (Anacardiaceae), Artocarpus sericoarpus (Moraceae), Alstonia scholaris (Apocynaceae), Knema cinerea (Myristicaceae) and Litsea mappacea (Lauraceae).The nests in trees were found in 3-11 meters (5 nests), 11-25 meters (20 nests), and 20 – 35 meters on buildings ( 35 nests).Maximum nets on building was noted on the top of Greenfield International Stadium (30 nests) . Most of the bee nests were oriented towards South east direction and minimum towards south west direction on buildings and trees. In the South east direction maximum bee hive orientation was noted both on trees and buildings where radiation exposure from cell towers was minimum ( 0.20 w/m2 ) whereas in the South west direction minimum bee hive orientation was recorded where the radiation exposure was maximum ( 9.20w/m2). Keywords: Nest orientation, A.dorsata , cell tower, building. Introduction Apis dorsata construct nests on varieties of nesting structures that provide suitable habitat for leading successful life (Deodikar et al.

  • ATIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLANNING and RESEARCH CENTRE Volume XII, Issue 4 October-December 2014
    NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLANNING AND RESEARCH CENTRE Volume XII, Issue 4 October-December 2014 TRAFFIC SOLUTION FOR TECHNOPARK - NH-ACCESS Thiruvananthapuram Technopark, the largest information technology park in India, contributes considerable amount of traffic on NH 66 Bypass road. The traffic is expected to grow in the upcoming years with the commissioning of all the three phases of Technopark. The generated traffic from Technopark during peak hours and through traffic on NH 66 Bypass will cause severe traffic congestion on the road stretch from Kazhakkoottam and Thampuran Nada. Electronics Technology Park, Kerala entrusted NATPAC to suggest possible solutions for easing the traffic considering the formation of entries to the NH 66 Bypass. Technopark is located near Kazhakoottam on National Highway 66 Ensuring mobility by reducing Bypass (NH 66), which connects Kazhakoottam on NH - 66 and its negative impact on the Mukkola near Kovalam. Once the Technopark becomes fully functional, it is expected to have 10 entries/exits on NH 66 Bypass. It was observed that, economy, environment, and during morning and evening peak hours, NH Bypass road near main quality of life is one of the entry/exit of Technopark is experiencing severe traffic congestion.
