Habitat Based Ecological Analysis of Urban Industrial Environment: an Appraisal for the Haldia Town, West Bengal
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 8, ISSUE 11, NOVEMBER 2019 ISSN 2277-8616 Habitat Based Ecological Analysis Of Urban Industrial Environment: An Appraisal For The Haldia Town, West Bengal Avijit Bera Abstract: The urban ecological landscape of Haldia industrial town represents a semi- natural and altered cultural habitat which can be considered as a manifestation of human interaction with semi-natural environment in the face of industrialization and rapid urbanization. Manmade activities for urban development have brought about several changes in the form of landuse alternation, high pollution level, fragmentation of natural habitat. Which are gradually affecting the habitat character by modifying the semi-natural habitats and also by introducing some man-made habitats. In my present work an attempt has been made to identify and assess each of the urban habitat types in ecological terms and also to evaluate the impact of urbanization on the remnant semi natural habitats of Haldia industrial town. In this paper open source Google image was mainly utilized to analysis the habitat characteristics in site based case study in Haldia town. The founding is very significant to make decision to create eco-friendly situation in spite of the urban development of urban industrial site. Keywords: Urbanization, industrialization, landuse, fragmentation, habitat, decision, spite ———————————————————— 1. INTRODUCTION Along with the semi natural urban habitat totally altered Urban habitat are semi natural in their physical man made artificial habitats are also found in urban areas. characteristics on urban land, but sometimes total Due to diversified nature of urban landscape a verity of alternation are not common in case of urban habitat habitats are found in the urban area.

Investigating Groundwater Condition and Seawater Intrusion Status in Coastal Aquifer Systems of Eastern India
water Article Investigating Groundwater Condition and Seawater Intrusion Status in Coastal Aquifer Systems of Eastern India Subrata Halder 1,* , Lingaraj Dhal 2 and Madan K. Jha 1 1 AgFE Department, IIT Kharagpur, Kharagpur 721302, India; [email protected] 2 WRD&M Department, IIT Roorkee, Roorkee 247667, India; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +91-943-259-4699 Abstract: Providing sustainable water supply for domestic needs and irrigated agriculture is one of the most significant challenges for the current century. This challenge is more daunting in coastal regions. Groundwater plays a pivotal role in addressing this challenge and hence, it is under growing stress in several parts of the world. To address this challenge, a proper understanding of groundwater characteristics in an area is essential. In this study, spatio-temporal analyses of pre-monsoon and post-monsoon groundwater levels of two coastal aquifer systems (upper leaky confined and underlying confined) were carried out in Purba Medinipur District, West Bengal, India. Trend analysis of seasonal groundwater levels of the two aquifers systems was also performed using Mann-Kendall test, Linear Regression test, and Innovative Trend test. Finally, the status of seawater intrusion in the two aquifers was evaluated using available groundwater-quality data of Chloride (Cl−) and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). Considerable spatial and temporal variability was found in the seasonal groundwater levels of the two aquifers. Further, decreasing trends were spotted in the pre-monsoon and post-monsoon groundwater-level time series of the leaky confined and confined aquifers, except pre-monsoon groundwater levels in Contai-I and Deshpran blocks, and the post- Citation: Halder, S.; Dhal, L.; Jha, monsoon groundwater level in Ramnagar-I block for the leaky confined aquifer.

Speech of Mamata Banerjee Introducing the Railway Budget 2011-12 25Th February 2011
Speech of Mamata Banerjee introducing the Railway Budget 2011-12 25th February 2011 1. Madam Speaker, I rise to present before this august House the Revised Estimates for 2010-11 and the estimated receipts and expenditure for 2011-12. I deem it an honour to present the third Railway Budget under the kind guidance of the hon'ble Prime Minister. I profusely thank the Finance Minster for his continued support and encouragement to the railways. 2. As the hon’ble members are aware, the wheels of the railways continue to move 24 hours, all 365 days. Railway’s services are comparable to emergency services, required all the time. I am proud of the 14 lakh members of my railway family, who toil day and night with unparalleled dedication. I am also grateful to all passengers without whose cooperation and consideration, we could not have run this vast system. I have also received unstinted support from our two recognised federations and staff and officers’ associations. 3. Madam, rail transportation is vitally interlinked with the economic development of the country. With the economy slated to grow at a rate of 8-9%, it is imperative that the railways grow at an even faster pace. I see the railways as an artery of this pulsating nation. Our lines touch the lives of humble people in tiny villages, as they touch the lives of those in the bustling metropolises. 4. We are taking a two-pronged approach, scripted on the one hand, by a sustainable, efficient and rapidly growing Indian Railways, and on the other, by an acute sense of social responsibility towards the common people of this nation.
