The Chotanagpur Plateau Region Anurudh K Singh Department of Genetics, MD University, Rohtak 124001, Haryana, India (email: [email protected]) Abstract The Chotanagpur Plateau in eastern India is a geohistorically unique region, being the oldest landmass on the earth. Agriculture has been practiced in this region from the ancient times, and appears to be an extension of the Ganga basin agriculture. Being the link between the Eastern Himalayas and the Satpura Hills with transitional ecology, the region has functioned as the passage for migration of fl ora and fauna from the Indo-Malayan region to peninsular India. For these reasons, it is very rich in fl oristic diversity and endemism of species. The region is dominated by tribal populations, including ancient tribes such as the Oraons, who are involved in diverse agricultural activities, starting from hunting-gathering of forest products, fi shing, and livestock rearing to settled agriculture. The region can be credited for evolving farming/production systems suited to different toposequences in slopy terrain, such as rice-based effi cient production systems, pulse-based mixed cropping systems, facilitating conservation of soil fertility and effi cient use of water and genetic diversity, such as early maturing and drought-resistant gora varieties in rice, the Chotanagpuri sheep breed in animals, and production of cottage products such as tasar silk (along with Chhattisgarh), etc. The present article discusses these contributions of the region, proposing it to be another national agricultural biodiversity heritage site based on the established indices. The Chotanagpur region is a plateau in rainfall than the adjacent ecoregions, which eastern India, covering much of the recently explains its drier vegetation. However, it created Jharkhand state, as well as the does include patches of moist deciduous bordering areas of Orissa, West Bengal, forests and swampy areas, thereby offering Bihar, and Chhattisgarh. The Gondwana diverse ecologies for agriculture. The substrates attest ancient origin to the region derives its name probably from plateau.

Keywords: 4IN/baseline information/conservation/landscape/Panthera tigris/population size/range/status/tiger Abstract: Today, confined to less than 7% of their original range, tigers are going through one of the worst crises in their evolutionary history. The Indian subcontinent, which contains most of the world's wild tigers, represents only 11% of the world's tiger habitat. We estimate that there may be less than 1,600 tigers in the whole of the Indian subcontinent and the realistic maximum number of tigers that could be supported with its current habitat would be around 3,700. Tiger conservation in the Indian subcontinent faces a range of serious and complex threats, but we believe that most of these issues are still possible to address; India showed that this was possible in the 1970s when the survival of the tiger in the country also looked bleak. Here, we summarize some of the most important issues and suggest some means by which these may be addressed to secure the future of this majestic big cat.

  • Study on the Behaviour of Red Soil Cement Concrete
    International Journal of Advances in Mechanical and Civil Engineering, ISSN: 2394-2827 Volume-3, Issue-3, Jun.-2016 STUDY ON THE BEHAVIOUR OF RED SOIL CEMENT CONCRETE 1JAMES ALEXANDER.S, 2ANTONY GODWIN, 3S.ALEXANDER 1Department of civil engineering Karunya University Coimbatore, Tamilnadu, India. 3Superintending Engineer (Retired), Tamilnadu P.W.D Former Principal,Dean & Professor of Engineering Colleges & Consulting Engineer (Civil) Tirunelveli, Tamilnadu, India. E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract- Many researchers are dealing with various types of admixtures to improve the mechanical and durability properties of concrete. In this present investigation, red soil is taken as an admixture to enhance the performance of concrete. An experimental investigation is carried out to study the behaviour of concrete by replacing the fine aggregate with locally available red soil. It involves a certain tests to find the quality improvement of concrete when red soil is added to it. The partial replacement of sand with red soil has been done according to the specific mix proportion to gain good strength in concrete and to calculate the imperviousness of red soil and also to find the special features of red soil which has the anti pest control in it. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and durability properties such as porosity, water permeability tests has been carried out for red soil mixed concrete and plain concrete to differentiate the strength and imperviousness in it . From the chemical properties of red soil, it is found that by replacing the fine aggregate with red soil turns the concrete as anti pest control.

  • The High Deccan Duricrusts of India and Their Significance for the 'Laterite
    The High Deccan duricrusts of India and their significance for the ‘laterite’ issue Cliff D Ollier1 and Hetu C Sheth2,∗ 1School of Earth and Geographical Sciences, The University of Western Australia, Nedlands, W.A. 6009, Australia. 2Department of Earth Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay, Powai, Mumbai 400 076, India. ∗e-mail: [email protected] In the Deccan region of western India ferricrete duricrusts, usually described as laterites, cap some basalt summits east of the Western Ghats escarpment, basalts of the low-lying Konkan Plain to its west, as well as some sizeable isolated basalt plateaus rising from the Plain. The duricrusts are iron-cemented saprolite with vermiform hollows, but apart from that have little in common with the common descriptions of laterite. The classical laterite profile is not present. In particular there are no pisolitic concretions, no or minimal development of con- cretionary crust, and the pallid zone, commonly assumed to be typical of laterites, is absent. A relatively thin, non-indurated saprolite usually lies between the duricrust and fresh basalt. The duricrust resembles the classical laterite of Angadippuram in Kerala (southwestern India), but is much harder. The High Deccan duricrusts capping the basalt summits in the Western Ghats have been interpreted as residuals from a continuous (but now largely destroyed) laterite blan- ket that represents in situ transformation of the uppermost lavas, and thereby as marking the original top of the lava pile. But the unusual pattern of the duricrusts on the map and other evidence suggest instead that the duricrusts formed along a palaeoriver system, and are now in inverted relief.
