The genus Graphis is characterized by: crustose, corticolous, or rarely saxicolous or foliicolous thallus; lirelline, elongate, simple to irregularly branched ascomata; simple, unbranched paraphyses; unitunicate asci with apical pore apparatus; colourless and transversely septate ascospores with lenticular cell lumina. Photobiont a green alga (generally Trentepohlia). The name Graphis was first proposed by Adanson (1763) in his treatise "Families des Plantes" for accommodating a few species of lichens known at that time. However, Linnaeus (1753) in his "Species Plantarum" had included them under Lichen scriptus while Acharius included them in Opegrapha. Acharius (1810) in his "Lichenographia Universalis" has divided Opegrapha into three genera Arthonia, Opegrapha and Graphis where Graphis is characterized by an elongate apothecium immersed in the thalline margin. Miiller Arg. (1880, 1882) in his series "Lichenoligische Beitrage" has utilized spore characters in the segregation of genera. Taking Graphis (sensu Acharius) with hyaline, transeptate spores he formulated three more genera Graphina with hyaline muriform spores, Phaeographis with brown, transeptate spores and Phaeographina with brown, muriform spores. The name Graphis given to the genus by Adanson has been retained with all the diagnostic characteristics universally accepted, are sensu

Shinde1 Tushar R. Bagul2 1PG Student, 2Assistant Professor, Civil Department (C&M), Civil Department (C&M), Dr. D.Y. Patil College of Engineering, Dr. D.Y. Patil College of Engineering, Pune, Pune, India India ABSTRACT Feasibility studies are carried out to validate expenditure on infrastructure projects. In spite the importance of the studies in supporting decisions related to public expenditure on infrastructure projects, there are no attempts to assess such studies after construction. Ghat Roads are approach routes into the mountainous region like Western and Eastern Ghats. They generally served to connect to sea side regions with the upper region Deccan plateau of the Indian Subcontinent. An analysis of a feasibility study for a state highway ghat road construction project is presented in this paper with an emphasis on the estimates, and forecasts presented in that study to weigh expected benefits from the project against expected costs. The Ghat road will improve connectivity between two tahsils, reducing the travel distance by 40.00 KMS. The Proposed road aims to reduce the Distance and travel time between two districts. This would facilitate trade, and commerce between two districts and reduce the traffic pressure on present roads passing through the existing ghats which are used to travel in kokan presently.

Student Dr. D.Y. Patil Inst. of Engineering. Management & Research, Akurdi Abstract: Factors including earthquake, storms, volcanic eruptions, human modification of land has increased levels of causing landslide in last decades. Paper presented will give the mapping done in and around Ghat section with direct-indirect methods, there causes, impacts in last decades and way of preventing such landslides. The landslide susceptibility study gives an idea of the stability condition of the slopes so that it can be used for planning any further construction activity and remedial measures. Thus the detailed on landslide zonation mapping and risk management of Malshej Ghat are revels which are discussed in detail. Keywords: Risk management, Landslide, Natural hazards, Mapping, GPS I. INTRODUCTION A natural disaster like landslide is the outcome of combination of a natural hazard and human activities. Landslides cause a lot of casualties in a year especially those cities sited nearby foothills are more vulnerable to landslides. Depending on triggering factors, landslides vary in comparison as well as in the rate of movement. Landslides occur due to several factors such as physio-chemical variables, which contribute to landslide susceptibility, such as geology, slope characteristics, geotechnical properties, drainage patterns and dynamic variables which tend to trigger landslides such as rainfall and earthquakes.
