  • 1 Pleistocene Climatic Changes in Western India
    Abstract submitted for Mini Workshop “Future of the Past” to held at Gateway Hotel, Manglore, November 21 to 26, 2011 Pleistocene Climatic Changes in Western India: A Geoarchaeological Approach S.N. Rajaguru, Sushama G. Deo and Sheila Mishra Deccan College, Pune Recently Dhavalikar in his A. Ghosh memorial lecture titled “Indian Archaeology in the 21st Century” delivered on 25th September 2011, in New Delhi, strongly emphasized the need of understanding past cultural changes in terms of palaeoenvironment. He has suggested that growth and decay of protohistoric and historic cultures in India have been largely influenced by changes in the intensity of monsoonal rainfall during the Holocene, approximately last 10,000 years. In the last 25 years considerable new scientific data have been generated for the Holocene climatic changes in India (Singhvi and Kale 2009). It is observed that the early Holocene (~ 10 ka years to 4 ka years) was significantly wetter than the late Holocene (< 4 ka years). These changes in summer rainfall of India have been mainly due to global climatic factors. In the present communication we have attempted to understand prehistoric cultural changes against the background of climatic changes of the Pleistocene, approximately covering time span from about 2 Ma years BP to about 10 ka BP. Recently Sanyal and Sinha (2010) and Singhvi et al (2011-12) have attempted reconstruction of palaeomonsoon in Indian subcontinent by using data generated through multidisciplinary studies of marine cores, continental- fluvial, fluvio- lacustral, aeolian, glacial and littoral deposits- preserved in different parts of India. However, there is no input of prehistoric cultural changes in these publications.

  • Equitable Distrubution of Water in Upper Godavari Sub Basin: a Case Study from Maharashtra Abstract
    nd 2 World Irrigation Forum (WIF2) W.1.2.06 6-8 November 2016, Chiang Mai, Thailand EQUITABLE DISTRUBUTION OF WATER IN UPPER GODAVARI SUB BASIN: A CASE STUDY FROM MAHARASHTRA Suresh A Kulkarni1 ABSTRACT Maharashtra state of India is located in the semi-arid climatic zone where assured irrigation supply is essential for optimal crop growth. Presently, only about 20% of the state's cultivable area is brought under irrigation. Since last four decades, the state government has been giving emphasis on water resources development by constructing large and small dams. The state now has the highest number of dams in the country creating a storage capacity of about 40 billion cubic meters. About 70% of surface water storages are used for irrigation. In absence of integrated approach at basin/ sub-basin level, there has been lopsided development and use of water resources in the state. As the basins/ sub-basins are getting closed due to over usage of water, conflicts among upstream and downstream stakeholders and different categories of uses are escalating. Maharashtra Water Resources Regulatory Authority was established in 2005 to regulate and ensure equitable distribution and utilization of water resources in the state. Godavari basin, the second largest basin in India covers about half of Maharashtra’s geographical area. Maharashtra part of the Godavari basin is divided into 27 sub-basins. The Upper Godavari Sub-basin is one of the most developed basin in terms of agriculture, urban and industrial growth in the state. Many irrigation projects were constructed in the sub-basin to meet the growing water demand for irrigation, domestic and industrial uses.

  • Seasonal Changes in Biochemical Composition of Fresh Water Bivalve Lamellidens Marginalis G
    IJMSS Vol.04 Issue-07, (July, 2017) ISSN: 2394-5710 International Journal in Physical and Applied Sciences (Impact Factor- 4.657) SEASONAL CHANGES IN BIOCHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF FRESH WATER BIVALVE LAMELLIDENS MARGINALIS G. D. Suryawanshi Department of Zoology, Yogeshwari Mahavidyalaya, Ambajogai, Dist. Beed-431517 ABSTRACT In the present study, seasonal patterns of biochemical composition in bivalve, Lamellidens marginalis from different habitats from the Marathwada region were observed in different seasons. As environmental factors changes it shows an effect on biochemical composition in the tissues.In Jayakwadi and Bindusara dam the protein level was found maximum during winter(52.50) and (47.70) mg/100gm of dry tissue weight. In Manjara and Yeldari dam it was more (46.50) and (46.10) in monsoon. There is great fluctuation in the values of glycogen were observed during different seasons. The glycogen level was found maximum during winter in Bindusara (10.39) followed by Jayakwadi (10.09),Manjara (9.34) and Yeldari (8.69). The lipid was more in Jayakwadi (5.48) followed by Manjara (5.29), Yeldari (5.29) and n Bindusara dam (5.05) in winter. The ascorbic acid was more in Jayakwadi (2.07) followed by Manjara (2.03), Bindusara (2.02) and Yeldari dam (1.94) in winter. The bivalve mollusc shows maximum variation of biochemical composition as it undergoes different stages like development, maturation and spawning during different seasons and can be affected by environmental factors, such as fluctuations in the environmental conditions, or by internal factors, such as metabolic and physiological activities. It might be the spawning cycle and food supply are the main factors responsible for this variation Keywords: Freshwater bivalves, L.
