  • Environmental, Economic and Agricultural Surveys of an Ecologically Important Forest Edge Hamlet in Darjeeling District, West Bengal, India
    Available online at www.worldscientificnews.com WSN 5 (2015) 66-80 EISSN 2392-2192 Environmental, economic and agricultural surveys of an ecologically important forest edge hamlet in Darjeeling district, West Bengal, India Sayan Bhattacharya1,*, Arkajyoti Shome2, Abhishek Dutta3, Gourab Majumder1, Raktim Banerjee1 1Department of Environmental Studies, Rabindra Bharati University, India 2Department of Ecology and Environmental Sciences, Pondicherry University, India 3Department of Environmental Studies, Visva Bharati University, India *E-mail address: [email protected] , [email protected] ABSTRACT Forest cover in the hill regions is essential to maintain environmental, economic and ecological balances. North Bengal accounts for 3,086 sq km (26 %) of the 11,876 sq km area of classified forests in the state, and for nearly 5,000 sq km (40 %) of all land under tree cover. Khumani is a Village (26.84o N, 88.60o E) in Gorubathan Block in Darjeeling District of West Bengal State, India. The survey work was done in December, 2014 by visiting the Khumani Forest Village (established in 1949) of upper Kumai and the primary data were gathered through field survey and direct contact with common people and authorized centers of the region. Surveys on the demography, agriculture, livestock management, water management, education, culture, health, waste management, disaster management, transport, biodiversity, human animal conflict were done in this area. Topographic map of the area was prepared by using the database of National Atlas and Thematic Mapping Organization (NATMO), Kolkata office. In every phase of the survey work, pictorial documentation was done. In spite of being positioned in a diverse and sensitive ecological zone, the village is not adequately managed.

    Journal of Environment and Earth Science www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3216 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0948 (Online) Vol.3, No.13, 2013 Causes and Consequences of Channel Changes – A Spatio- Temporal Analysis Using Remote Sensing and Gis— Jaldhaka-Diana River System (Lower Course), Jalpaiguri (Duars), West Bengal, India Dr. Sandipan Chakraborty, Associate Professor; Kathakali Datta, Research Fellow, CSIR, Presidency University, Kolkata Abstract: Channel changes with respect to time and space play a significant role in stream flow dynamics. The rambling and trailing of channels in the studied region has been studied through systematic analysis and interpretation of diverse channel configuration and multi-channel orientation using multi-temporal Topographical maps and Satellite images for a period spanning nearly 80 years (1930–2011). For this specific purpose lower course of Diana River in the Jaldhaka-Diana river system has been selected in the Duars region of the Jalpaiguri district, West Bengal which is virtually a zone of transition between the Himalayan Mountains and the North Bengal plain. The prime objective of the study is to reveal the spatio-temporal sequences of channel changes, consequent movement of confluence point and the factors and causes of such movement. For this particular extraction, Base map has been generated with the help of SOI Topographical maps and satellite images of the respective area. For this purpose updated version of ERDAS Imaging is employed as image processing tool for enhancing, merging and to update the spatial information of channel configuration and Arc GIS for final product generation. Following the specific objective of the study it has been deduced that during this span the confluence point has moved and re-oriented both upstream and downstream on a historical time scale and new confluence points have been created by repeated shifting and migration of channels.

    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 23, Issue 8, Ver. 4 (August. 2018) PP 38-47 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Geotechnical Evaluation of Kalijhora Landslide on Sevok – Teesta Bazaar Road, Along NH 10, Kalimpong District, West Bengal. Pranatosh DasMondal* *Research Scholar, Geography, University of Calcutta, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. Corresponding Author: Pranatosh DasMondal Abstract: Kalimpong District in the Eastern Himalaya in West Bengal, India has been intensely destabilized by many landslides. Recently the incidence of landslide occurrence has increased rapidly with the gradual anthropogenic abuse of slopes specially the development of transport arteries and consequent jerk and vibration by vehicles. Due to landslides, the Darjeeling Himalayan region faces major problems of geoenvironmental imbalance and poses threats to life and property. In 2015, a major landslide occurred near Kalijhora area on right bank of Teesta river along NH 10, between Sevok – Teesta bazaar road, Kalimpong District, West Bengal. This landslide is reactivated last few years causing disruption of traffic along this important hill route and creating recurrent economic loss to the state exchequer. In view of the importance of the Kalihora landslide, detailed investigations incorporating relevant engineering geological and geotechnical parameters were carried out in order to find out the factor of safety. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- Date of Submission: 10-08-2018 Date of acceptance: 24-08-2018 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- I. INTRODUCTION The Darjeeling Himalaya is a fragile terrestrial system, which is too often disturbed by various environmental catastrophes. Slope instability along transport and arterial sectors is perhaps the most hazardous among the environmental catastrophe threatening the Darjeeling Himalaya.

  • Biochemical Analysis of an Indigenous Fish Barilius Bendelisis
    Biosc.Biotech.Res.Comm. Special Issue Vol 13 No 15 (2020) Pp-218-226 Biochemical Analysis of an Indigenous Fish Barilius bendelisis Gobinda Chandra De¹, Debashis Das² and Abhisek Saha3* 11Department of Chemistry, Associate Professor, Cooch Behar Panchanan Barma University, Cooch Behar, West Bengal, India 2Department of Zoology, Associate Professor, Tufanganj Mahavidyalaya, Cooch Behar, West Bengal, India 3*Department of Chemistry, Assistant Professor, Tufanganj Mahavidyalaya, Cooch Behar, West Bengal, India ABSTRACT Transboundary river Torsa, Raidak-1, Jaldhaka( Mansai) flowing through Cooch Behar district of West Bengal, India. A proximate study on the biochemical contents of a commonly consumed and available popular freshwater small indigenous fish (SIS) of these rivers was done to calculate their nutritive value. Most important nutrient composition of Barilius bendelisis (commonly known as Boroli fish) like protein, fat, moisture, ash calculated by standard ‘AOAC’ procedures (AOAC, 2005). The unrefined protein content shifted somewhere in the range of 16.86% and 16.72% with the most extreme protein content found in fish collected in Jaldhaka (Mansai)and least in the Raidak-1 river. So also, the fat content was assorted from 6.54% to 6.45%. Moisture content demonstrates a variety from 73.38% to 72.99% though, the ash content changed from 3.42% to 3.34%. The present work clearly shows that ‘SIS’ is the economical source of quality protein which can provide nutritional security, source of revenue safety and can solve the protein need of the locality. Enhancement of the production by aquaculture and consumption of small fishes encouraged for a better way to meet protein hunger of this region.
