On a Collection of Centipedes (Myriapoda : Chilopoda) from Pune, Maharashtra
1tIIe. ZDflI. Surv. India, 93 (1-2) : 165-174, 1993 ON A COLLECTION OF CENTIPEDES (MYRIAPODA : CHILOPODA) FROM PUNE, MAHARASHTRA. B. E. YADAV Zoological Survey of India Western Regional Station Pune-411 005. INTRODUCTION The Centipedes are an important group of organisms. They are poisonous, cryptic, solitary, carnivorous and nocturnal. Their distribution and taxonomy have been studied by Attems (1930). The centipedes from Deccan area are reported by Jangi and Dass (1984). However, there is no upto-date account of centipedes occuring in and around Pune, Maharashtra. On the basis of huge collection present in the Western Regional Station, Pune, an attempt has been made to record centipedes from Pune district. The present paper deals with six genera comorising eighteen species of centipedes belongIng to the family Scolopendridae, mostly collected from Haveli taluka (Fig. 1). Occasionally bling centipedes (Cryptopidae) as well as long centipedes possessing more than 21 trunk segments, were also observed. DESCRIPTION ON LOCALITIES Pune city is situated 18 0 35' North latitude and 73° 53' East longitude at 558.6 m above MSL, with normal rainfall 675 mm per year in Maharashtra State. Centipedes were collected in the vicinity of Pune from Haveli, Khed, Maval, Ambegaon, Sirur and Purandar talukas. Haveli taluka ; Eastern portion of this taluka is characterised by brown soil and mixed deciduous forest. 1. Akurdi: Akurdi is a small village situated 18 kms. NW of pune and at 575 m above MSL. This area occupies many stones and boulders. 2. Bhosri: Bhosri is a suburban area, 19 km. N of Pune on ~une-Nasik road. -

A Study of Baramati City (Maharashtra, India) for the Potential to Be a Smart City: Opportunities and Suggestions
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR INNOVATIVE RESEARCH IN MULTIDISCIPLINARY FIELD ISSN: 2455-0620 Volume - 6, Issue - 4, Apr – 2020 Monthly, Peer-Reviewed, Refereed, Indexed Journal with IC Value: 86.87 Impact Factor: 6.497 Received Date: 10/04/2020 Acceptance Date: 20/04/2020 Publication Date: 30/04/2020 A study of Baramati city (Maharashtra, India) for the potential to be a Smart City: Opportunities and Suggestions Dr. Sunil Ogale Assistant Professor Department of Geography, Vidya Pratishthan’s A.S.C. College Baramati, Pune District Maharashtra State, India. Email - [email protected] Abstract: The 2011 Indian Census found nearly 31% of India’s vast population lives within urban centers and contribute a handsome 63% toward India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). It is expected that by 2030, the population will rise up to 40% and GDP 75% . Without a shred of doubt, India’s cities are its chief catalyst towards economic prosperity. The term “smart city“was coined towards the end of the 20th century and it implies the implementation of user-friendly information and communication technologies developed by major industries for urban spaces. Its meaning has since been expanded to relate to the future of cities and their development. Smart cities are forward-looking, progressive and resource-efficient while providing at the same time a high quality of life. They promote social and technological innovations and link existing infrastructures. They incorporate new energy, traffic and transport concepts that go easy on the environment. Their focus is on new forms of governance and public participation. The present study analyses the facilities available in Baramati and explores its potential to become a Smart City. -

Chlorococcales is an order of green algae in the classChlorophyceae .The members were unicellular, coenocyticor colonial the predominant phase in the life-history is a non-motile one. The genus Scenedesmus Meyen are free living planktonic mostly in a shallow confined water. While studying the algal flora of Panzara river authors came across several members of order Chlorococcales.

Lohar1, Rutuja S. Awatade2 1Dadasaheb Mokashi College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology, Rajmachi, Karad, Satara, Maharashtra, India. 2Sir Choturam College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology, Lodga, Latur, Maharashtra, India. ---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract - The Morphometric analysis of the drainage basin and stream network deals with the measurement an geometrical analysis of the different aspects of a drainage basin. In the present study, morphometric analysis has been carried out using Geographical Information System (GIS) techniques to evaluate the different morphometric characteristics by considering three parameters: Linear, Areal and Relief aspects also deals mainly with the Geometry. The Karha river basin is one of the sub basin of Nira river basins in Pune district of Maharashtra and it covers 1196.98 Sq.km areas. Morphometric parameters like Stream order, Stream length, Bifurcation ratio, Drainage density, Stream Frequency, Relief ratio, Compactness coefficient are calculated using various techniques. The basin is characterized by Dendric Drainage Pattern. The shape parameters (Rf, Rc, Fr, Re, Wb) indicate the elongated shape of the basin Key Words: GIS, Remote sensing, Morphometric analysis, Cartosat DEM 1] INTRODUCTION GIS technique is nowadays used for assessing various terrain and morphometric parameters of the drainage basins and watersheds. They provide a flexible environment and a powerful tool for manipulation and analysis of spatial information within the present study stream numbers Morphometry is nothing but the mathematical analysis and measurement of configurations of earth shape, surface and dimension of landforms. -
