Mhaske Associate Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, VJTI, Mumbai-400019, Maharashtra, India ABSTRACT Verandha Ghat Section is connecting shield-plateau region with Konkan Coastal Belt (KCB) through Bhor Ghat area. Therefore, it is considered as a lifeline of Bhor (in Pune district) and Mahad (Raigarh District of Konkan), of western Maharashtra corridor. Geologically, this region belongs to Ambenali and Mahabaleshwar – Poladpur formation. The area shows thick flows of the Deccan Trap basalt of Upper Cretaceous to Eocene age. All the rock flows of this formation, exposed along this highway are in the form of rock cutting along the Pandharpur-Mahad Maharashtra State Highway -70, in the 74 km Ghat section from Bhor (part of Sahyadri Uplands, from Pune district) onwards and before Mahad (part of Konkan Coastal Belt from Raigarh district) of Maharashtra, are highly susceptible for landslide activity. A detailed exploration was carried out on all along the road section started from Bhor city and it extends up to the Varandah village, at the foot hill of Sahyadri, in Konkan region. In the present context, detailed investigations of the mass movement were carried out to prepare the map of highly vulnerable locations, in the study area.

IASBABA 60 DAY PLAN 2020 –GEOGRAPHY 60 DAYS PROGRAMME-2020 IASBABA IASBABA 60 DAY PLAN 2020 –GEOGRAPHY Q.1) With respect to the seismic waves consider the Following statements: 1. Primary waves travel to and fro in the line of propaGation and travel only in liquid medium 2. Secondary waves travel perpendicular to the line of propagation and they travel both in solid and liquid medium. Which amongst the above statements is /are correct? a) 1 only b) 2 only c) Both 1 and 2 d) Neither 1 nor 2 Q.1) Solution (d) Basic InFormation: • Seismic waves are waves of enerGy that travel throuGh the Earth's layers, and are a result of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, maGma movement, larGe landslides and larGe man-made explosions that Give out low-frequency acoustic energy. • The place of occurrence of an earthquake is called ‘focus’ and the place which experiences the seismic event first is called ‘epicenter’. • Epicenter is located on the earth’s surface and focus is always inside the earth. • The propaGation velocity of seismic waves depends on density and elasticity of the medium as well as the type of wave. Velocity tends to increase with depth throuGh Earth's crust and mantle, but drops sharply GoinG from the mantle to the outer core. • Seismic waves are Generally divided into 1. Primary waves, 2. Secondary waves and 3. Surface waves. Primary waves: • They are called lonGitudinal waves or compressional waves and are analoGous to sound waves where particles move to and fro in the line of propaGation. • They travel both in solid and liquid medium.

Description of the Region (Geographical Extent, Topography, Climate, and Vegetation)
Description of the Region (Geographical extent, topography, climate, and vegetation) The Maharashtra state is about 800 km east-west and 700 km north-south, an irregular dentate pentagon, lying between 22" r-16 " 4' north latitude and 72 " 6'-80 " 9' east longitude, covering an area of 3,07,690 sq km. It is limited to the west by the Arabian Sea, making a long coastline of 720 km. by Goa and Karnataka to the south, by Andhra Pradesh on the south-east, and Madhya Pradesh on the north, and Gujarat to its north-west (Map 1). Western Ghats or Sahyadri separate coastal strip of Konkan from rest of the plateau and thereby altitude ranges from mean sea level to about 1200 m on Western Ghats (with some highest peaks in the range like Kalsubai- 1654 m, Mahabaleshwar- 1382 m) and about 200-900 m over the rest. Average rainfall in the state varies from 250 cm in Konkan to 60-75 cm in Marathwada and again increasing to 150 cm towards eastern most part of Maharashtra that is Vidarbha. It forms a large part of Indian Peninsula. Similarly temperature varies between I5"C-47''C. Relative humidity fluctuate between 15% to 90%. Nearly 21% of the geographical area is under forest. Physiography Physiographically the state is divided into 5 divisions 1. Konkan, 2. Deccan or Desh, 3. Khandesh, 4. Marathwada and 5. Vidarbha (Map 2). Konkan, a narrow coastal strip of the west of Sahyadris, varies between 27-48 km in breadth and 800 km in length from Goa to Tapi Basin.

Chapter I Introduction
Introduction 2017 Chapter I Introduction Bamboo is a versatile, perennial plantation crop belonging to woody grass of family Poaceae sub family Bambusoideae. For generations’ together bamboo has been used by the rural communities in the developing world for food, building material, cash income, furniture, crafts and so many uses to support their lively hood. It is widely distributed in tropical, subtropical and mild temperate regions of the world. Since sixteen countries in Asia reported a total of 24 million hectares of bamboo resources while five African countries have been reported 2.8 million hectares of bamboo resources. It is estimated that ten Latin American countries have over 10 million hectares of bamboo resources, of the world is total about 37 million hectares or roughly 1 per cent of the global forest area. However, the figures represent only rough estimates and include pure bamboo forests; bamboo is always found to be growing in association with other species of plants. India and China are main contributors for the bamboo resources of the world. India occupies 43% of the world bamboo resources, while China stands second with 30% of bamboo resources. China is the largest producer of bamboo stocks while India stands the second largest producer of bamboos after China (Lobovikov et al ., 2007) (Fig: 1). Bamboo resources in China are mainly distributed in ten provinces in subtropical and sub temperate regions. In China both the monopodial and sympodial species are used. Anji bamboo development is a role model for all Asian and South African countries (Wang, 2006). In India, in spite of its varied climate and geography, bamboo is available in all the states except Jammu and Kashmir.

The study revealed the presence of 24 species of fish belonging to eight orders (Cypriniformes, Siluriformes, Perciformes, Osteoglossiformes, Synbranchiformes, Clupeiformes, Mugiliformes and Aulopiformes). The predominant orders of fishes in this area (Sangavi) are Cypriniformes, Siluriformes and Perciformes. The highest number of ten species was recorded in the order Cypriniformes. The fishes recorded were found to be widely distributed and were present in good numbers in the river.

These are cosmopolitan and found in a India variety of habitats. Efforts were made to identify the darkling beetles deposited in National Zoological Collection, Zoological Survey of India, Pune. Identification of beetles yielded 17 species belonging to 12 D Vasanthakumar genera under 08 tribes of 04 subfamilies of family Tenebrionidae from different districts of Maharashtra Western Regional Centre, state. All the species reported here are new records to the Maharashtra state. Zoological Survey of India Vidyanagar, Ravet Road, Keywords: Darkling beetles, Maharashtra, new records Akurdi, Pune, Maharashtra, India 1. Introduction The family Tenebrionidae (Darkling beetles) is the fifth largest family under the order Coleoptera and representatives of the family are found in almost all the habitats and are hard to differentiate but can be identified by these characters. Body hard, antennal insertion hidden under frons, elytra usually completely covering abdomen, abdomen with five visible sternites and first three segments connate, front coxal cavities closed behind, heteromerous tarsi, tarsal segments and claws simple [1]. [2] Even though, there are several chapters on Coleoptera in the Fauna of Maharashtra , there are no reports on the darkling beetles fauna of this state.
