Considering its size, India doesn’t count many scientists in its population, and home-grown researchers often take positions elsewhere. To move from this ‘brain drain’ to ‘brain regain’, Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)-trained molecular biologist Krishnarao Appasani has returned (after three decades in the USA) to his home state to make real his vision of having three science cities in Andhra Pradesh, each aiming to attract young Indian people into science and provide opportunities for them to stay.

  • Environmental Degradation and Landscape Management of the Nallamalai and Erramalai Hills of the Rayalaseema Region, Andhra Pradesh, India Using Geospatial Technology
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN (Online): 2319-7064 Index Copernicus Value (2013): 6.14 | Impact Factor (2014): 5.611 Environmental Degradation and Landscape Management of the Nallamalai and Erramalai Hills of the Rayalaseema Region, Andhra Pradesh, India Using Geospatial Technology Kommu Somanna1, Mendu Sambasiva Rao2 1,2Dept. of Geography, Sri Krishnadevaraya University, Anantapuramu, Andhra Pradesh, India Abstract: The Nallamalai and Erramalai hills of the Rayalaseema region posses rich biotic and mineral resources. They are formed of structural hills and cuesta hills enclosing the Kadapa and Kunderu valleys. They are also formed of Proterozoic formations consisting of shales, dolomite, limestone and quartzite. The Nallamalai hills raised to a height of about 600 to 900 meters above MSL and are covered with thick dry deciduous forests. The Erramalai hills range in height from 300 to 600 meters above MSL and are covered with scrubs and shrubs. The IRS IB Geo-coded data on scale 1:50,000 and Survey of India topographic sheets on scale 1:50,000 are used to map the ecologically disturbed zones in Nallamalai hills and land degradation due to over exploitation of mineral resources of the Erramalai hills. The intensity of soil removal, Sediment Yield Index and Erosion Index are worked out at sub-basin level and the environmental degraded zones are delineated. Based on the intensity of ecological and environmental degradation a few suggestions are made for better landscape management of the Erramalai and Nallamalai hills. Keywords: Proterozoic, deciduous, ecologically, intensity, degraded. 1. Introduction 2. Study Area Land degradation is defined as the land is subjected to The Nallamalai, Erramalai, Palakonda, Velikonda, Tirumala degradation processes by weathering and mass wasting and Seshachalam hills cover an area of about 51.142km2.

Bubesh Guptha, P.V. Chalapathi Rao, D. Srinivas Reddy, S.R.S.C. Sekhar Maddala and P. Madhu Babu Wildlife Management Circle, Tirupati Andhra Pradesh - 517 507, India Abstract: Seshachalam hills, one of the first Biosphere Reserve in Andhra Pradesh, located in southern Eastern Ghats of Chittoor and Kadapa districts. It is spread over 4755.99 Km2 . The vegetation is a unique mix of the dry deciduous and moist deciduous types. A detailed survey of butterflies was conducted from August 2011 to January 2012. The objective of the observation is to determine the presence of butterflies. The reserve area has different habitats like scrub jungle, open forest and trial path. Each zone was explored on the basis of possibility and availability of butterflies. A total of 50 species of butterflies were recorded under five families. The family Nymphalidae and Lycaenidae were found dominant with 20 species and 12 species, respectively, followed by Pieridae (11 species), Papilionidae (5 species) and two species from the family Hesperiidae. More number of species was observed in Talakona followed by Mamandur, Balapalli, Tirumala, Jungle Book and Divyaram. Observed species were grouped in five categories on basis of number of sighting in the field. The butterflies were categorized as Very Common (VC) 40% (20 species), Common (C) 36% 18 species, Uncommon (UC) 10% (5 species), Occasional (O) 8 % (4 species) and Rare (R) 6 % (3 species).

An effective and low-cost protocol for isolating genomic DNA from the roots of Pterocarpus santilinus and Pimpinella tirupatiensis was described in this paper. It involved a modified CTAB method with distilled water pretreating samples. The A260/A280 absorbance ratio of extracted DNA was found to be free from polysaccharide, poly-phenols and tannins contaminants ranged from 2.2 to 2.8 within the high level of purity.

    Available online a t www.pelagiaresearchlibrary.com Pelagia Research Library Advances in Applied Science Research, 2013, 4(4):255-265 ISSN: 0976-8610 CODEN (USA): AASRFC Analysis of ground water potential in Chandragiri Mandal, Chittoor District, Andhra Pradesh Bhupal. K and Reddi Bhaskara Reddy. M Dept. of Geography, Sri Venkateswara University, Tirupati _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Ground water prospects of any area depend on its geological structure, geomorphic features and their hydrological characters. Identification and mapping of these elements is thus imperative for ground water exploration and optimal management of this precious resource. In the present paper ground water potentiality in Chandragiri mandal, Chittoor district, Andhra Pradesh has been evaluated by analyzing the hydro geomorphic parameters using Remote sensing Techniques. Satellite image and Topographical map have been used to prepare the required thematic maps like geology, lineaments, geomorphology, surface water bodies and drainage. These maps have been integrated in GIS environment to demarcate the hydro geomorphic units. Nine hydro geomorphic units viz. Flood plain, Moderately Weathered pedi plain, Shallow Weathered Pedi plain, Residual hill, Denudation hill, Structural hill, Inselberg, Pediment and Bajada have been derived from the integrated map. Ground water potentiality has been qualitatively assessed by analyzing the derived hydro geomorphic units after considering the field information. Key words : Ground water potential, Geomorphology, Lineaments, Pediplains, Pediments, Inselburg _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Rapid growth of population has projected the demand for food production and opened new ways to improve the utilization of surface and sub-surface water resources recently in a systematic and in a scientific way.
