The Mirik lake is a well-known tourist destination in the Darjeeling Himalayan region of West Bengal. In the last few decades, the lake area experienced a surge in demand for the hospitality industry with the consequences of unrestricted municipal town growth. On this perspective, this research work addresses the contemporary problems of the Mirk municipality area involving the lake system using technologies of remote sensing and GIS. In accordance with the primary objective, the detailed land use/land cover change analysis of the past twenty years shows a significant escalating trend in built-up area as it has increased from 149.85 ha in 2000 to 178.25 ha in 2020, where the lake expresses a steady reduction of its perennial part. The gradual shrinkage in the lake area may become of grave concern and therefore, this particular work tries to examine the water quality parameters of Mirik lake. Analyses have shown that the lake shrinkage may be attributed to waste disposal, landfill pollution etc., substantially contributed to the raised level of suspended sediment concentration (3724.26 mg/lit in 2020) near the boundaries. Moreover, the outcome of the developed water pollution model identifies that the western and south-western parts of the lake are the most polluted regions and confirms numerous inlets of the western side push up the level of phosphorus, nitrogen and biological oxygen demand in lake water. Such lake degradation is a real threat to the mountainous lacustrine environment, and it requires comprehensive plans for better management practices at some regular interregnum.

The exact magnitude of the carbon isotopic excursion (CIE) for the Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) is essential for our understanding of the carbon cycle perturbation. Global compilation of the PETM CIE magnitudes indicates that the shallow-marine inorganic carbonate could be a potential candidate to decipher the actual CIE magnitude. The present study, therefore, made an attempt to explore the thick Palaeogene shallow-marine carbonate sequence of the Sylhet Limestone exposed in the Jaintia Hills of northeast (NE) India, in terms of the preservation and magnitude of the PETM CIE. Exploratory sampling carried out across the Sylhet Limestone suggests that this sequence was deposited during the Late Palaeocene and Early Eocene, as evident from the age-diagnostic foraminifera. The observed \({\sim }3.4\permille \) CIE at the top of the Lakadong Limestone, resting above the Miscellanea miscella and Ranikothalia nuttalli foraminifera-bearing horizon, can, therefore, be correlated with the PETM CIE. Although the magnitude of the CIE from our limited data set agrees well with the global compilation, the absence of a stepped profile questions the preservation of the CIE reported elsewhere from the Tethyan sequence. Further work is needed for a better understanding of the PETM interval in NE India. 相似文献

The Singhbhum Shear Zone in eastern India is one of the largest repositories of uranium and copper in India. Besides uranium and copper, apatite-magnetite mineralization is widespread in this shear zone. This study aims at deciphering the physico-chemical evolution of magnetite mineralization in relation to progressive shearing integrating field relations, micro-textures, structures and compositions of magnetite in the Banduhurang uranium mine. Apatite-magnetite ores occur as discrete patches, tongues, and veins in the strongly deformed, fine grained quartzchlorite schist. Textures and microstructures of magnetite indicate at least three stages of magnetite formation. Coarsegrained magnetite (magnetite-1) with long, rotational, and complex strain fringes, defined by fibrous and elongate quartz, is assigned to a stage of pre-/early-shearing magnetite formation. Medium grained magnetite (magnetite-2), characterized by single non-rotational strain fringe equivalent to the youngest fringe of magnetite-1, grew likely at the mid-/late-stage of shearing. Fine grained magnetite (magnetite-3) is generally devoid of any pressure shadow. This indicates even a much later stage of formation of this magnetite, presumably towards the closing stage of shearing. Some of the magnetite-1 grains are optically heterogeneous with a dark, pitted Cr-Ti-bearing core overgrown by lighter, fresh rim locally containing pyrite, chalcopyrite, and chlorite inclusions. The cores are also locally characterized by high Al and Si content. Homogeneous magnetite-1 is optically and compositionally similar to the overgrowth of heterogeneous magnetite-1. This homogeneous magnetite-1 that grew as separate phase is contemporaneous with the overgrowth on pitted core of heterogeneous magnetite-1. Magnetite-2 is compositionally very similar to homogeneous magnetite-1, but is devoid of sulfide inclusion. Magnetite-3 is generally devoid of any silicate or sulfide inclusion and is most pure with least concentrations of trace/minor elements. The high Al and Si content in some magnetite can be explained by coupled substitution that involves substitution of Si4+ for Fe3+ in the tetrahedral sites and Fe2+ for Fe3+ in the octahedral sites, with a simple substitution of Al3+ for Fe3+ in the octahedral sites. The mode of occurrences of apatite-magnetite ores indicates a predominantly hydrothermal origin of most magnetite. However, the Cr-Ti-bearing magnetite-1 cores and inferred mafic nature of the original protolith indicates that some magnetite was inherited from the original igneous rock. We propose that the pre-/early-shearing hydrothermal event of magnetite formation was associated with sulfide mineralization and alteration of existing magmatic magnetite. The second stage of magnetite formation at the mid-/late-stage of shearing was not associated with sulfide formation. Finally, fine-grained compositionally pure magnetite formed at the closing stage of shearing likely due to metamorphism of Fe-rich protolith. 相似文献

Geothermal reservoirs — A brief review 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
A brief discussion and review of the geothermal reservoir systems, geothermal energy and modeling and simulation of the geothermal reservoirs has been presented here. Different types of geothermal reservoirs and their governing equations have been discussed first. The conceptual and numerical modeling along with the representation of flow though fractured media, some issues related to non isothermal flow through fractured media, the efficiency of the geothermal reservoir, structure of the numerical models, boundary conditions and calibration procedures have been illustrated. A brief picture of the Indian scenario and some barriers related with geothermal power are discussed and presented thereafter. Finally some gaps of the existing knowledge and recent focuses of research are discussed. 相似文献

Solitons and shocks are addressed in a pair ion plasma in the presence of a kappa distribution. The dissipation is taken care of through the kinematic viscosity of both positive and negative ions in the plasma. The Kadomtsev–Petviashvili–Burger (KPB) equation is derived using the small amplitude expansion method. The Abel equation is obtained from the KPB equation and a solution is obtained by using the factorization method. The effect of the parameters κ and β (temperature ratio of ion species) is observed. Analytically we can find both solitons and shocks. The change of profile from soliton to shocks is shown in the figures. This study may be of wide relevance for the study of the formation of shocks and solitons in laboratory-produced pair ion plasmas. 相似文献

Numerical modeling of heterogeneous flow fields around rigid objects with special reference to particle paths, strain shadows and foliation drag 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
With the help of two-dimensional numerical models this paper investigates three aspects of heterogeneous deformation around rigid objects: (1) the nature of particle paths; (2) the development of strain shadow zones; and (3) the drag patterns of passive markers. In simple shear, spherical objects develop typically a concentric vortex motion, showing particle paths with an eye (double-bulge)-shaped separatrix. The separatrix has no finite dimension along the central line, parallel to the shear direction. Under a combination of pure shear and simple shear, the particle paths assume a pattern with a bow-tie shaped separatrix. With increase in the ratio of pure shear to simple shear (Sr), the separatrix around the object shrinks in size. The axial ratio of the object (R) is another important factor that controls the geometry of particle paths. When R<1.5, the loci of a particle close to the object form an elliptical shell with the long axis lying along the central line. With increase in axial ratio R, the loci form a doublet elliptical shell structure. Objects with R>3 do not show closed particle paths, but give rise to elliptical or circular spiral particle paths.
The development of strain shadow zones against equant rigid bodies depends strongly on the strain ratio Sr. When Sr=0 (simple shear), they develop opposite to the extensional faces of the object, forming a typical σ-type tail. The structure has a tendency to die out with an increase in the pure shear component of the bulk deformation (Sr). The initial angle of the long axis of the object with the shear direction (φ) and the axial ratio of the object (R) determine the development of strain shadow zones near inequant rigid objects. Objects with large R and φ between 60 and 120° form pronounced zones of low finite strain, giving rise to strain shadow structures. A geometrical classification of diverse drag patterns of passive markers around rigid objects is presented along with their conditions of formation. 相似文献

Integrated geoelectric, geological and geochemical investigations are carried out in Budge Budge and Dum Dum areas of south and north 24 Parganas district for ascertaining the prevailing hydrological condition and aquifer characteristic with chemical qualities of groundwater for drinking and irrigation purposes. The proposed areas are constituted of alluvium and marine sediments of Quaternary age being a part of Gangetic delta. Vertical electrical soundings (VES) of Budge Budge have delineated four to six layers consisting of top soils, the brackish water zone, clay layer, first fresh water zone, another clay layer and the bottom-most(sixth layer) second fresh water bearing zone. The first fresh water zone is located at a depth of 128 m with thickness of 43 m having resistivity range of 32 ohm.m to 37 ohm.m for VES locations BB2 and BB3. The resistivity of the deeper second fresh water bearing zone is varying from 47 ohm.m to 51 ohm.m. The interpreted VES results significantly correspond with the borehole litholog of Budge Budge area. Similar VES results are also obtained for Dum Dum area showing promising potential aquifer zone especially for VES locations DD3 and DD4. A litho-resistivity relation is also determined for the area. Total TDS content of Budge Budge ground water samples are ranging from 720 mg/l to 4400 mg/l and same is ranging from 1012 mg/l to 1930mg/l for Dum Dum ground water samples. According to IS standard, the value of major cations and anions are near to the permissible limit for Dum Dum but same is not observed in Budge Budge for drinking and irrigation purpose excepting location G7. According to Piper trilinear diagram, the ground water in Budge Budge area is sulphate rich type and in Dum Dum it is fresh in nature. Chemically, the groundwater samples from Dum Dum and Budge Budge is classified as (Ca+Mg+Cl+SO4) facies. The geochemical parameters like total hardness (TH), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), soluble sodium percentage (SSP), Kelly’s ratio (KR), magnesium ratio (MR), residual sodium carbonate (RSC), corrosivity ratio (CR), Gibb’s ratio-I&II (GR-I & GR-II), chloro alkaline indices (CAI-I & CAI-II), permeability index (PI), sea water contamination (SWC) are also determined for better understanding of the quality of groundwater in the above areas. 相似文献

This paper addresses macroscopic signatures of microbial mat-related structures within the 1.6Ga-old Chorhat Sandstone of
the Semri Group — the basal stratigraphic unit of the Vindhyan succession in Son valley. The Chorhat Sandstone broadly represents
a prograding succession of three depositional facies ranging from shallow shelf to coastal margin with aeolian sandsheet.
The mat-mediated structures were generated because of plastic or brittle deformation of sand, turned cohesive and even thixotropic
because of microbial mat growth. Mat growth also favoured abundant preservation of structures that usually have low preservation
potential. Prolific growth of microbial mat in the subtidal to intertidal zone of the Chorhat sea was facilitated due to lack
of grazing and burrowing activities of organisms in the Precambrian. It further indicates low rate of sedimentation between
the storms, as also attested by frequent superposition of storm-beds, even near the storm wave base. It also reduces erosion
and that, in turn, would imply low sediment concentration in flows leading to development of bedforms that are likely to be
smaller in size and isolated from each other in a single train in contrast to those that form in mat-free sands. 相似文献

In this paper, sparse data problem in neural network and geostatistical modeling for ore-grade estimation was addressed in the Nome offshore placer gold deposit. The problem of sparse data arises because of the random data division into training, validation, and test subsets during ore-grade modeling. In this regard, the possibility of generating statistically dissimilar data subsets by random data division was also explored through a simulation exercise. A combined approach of data segmentation and application of a Kohonen network then was used to solve the data division problem. Two neural networks and five kriging models were applied for grade modeling. The neural network was trained using an early stopping method. Performance evaluation of the models was carried out on the test data set. The study results indicated that all the models that were investigated in this study performed almost equally. It was also revealed that by using the secondary variable watertable depth the neural network and the kriging models slightly improved their prediction precision. Further, the overall R
2 of the models was poor as a result of high nugget (noisy) component in ore-grade variation. 相似文献
