The summer monsoon rainfall over Orissa, a state on the eastern coast of India, is more significantly related than Indian
summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) to the cyclonic disturbances developing over the Bay of Bengal. Orissa experiences floods and
droughts very often due to variation in the characteristics of these disturbances. Hence, an attempt was made to find out
the inter-annual variability in the rainfall over Orissa and the frequencies of different categories of cyclonic disturbances
affecting Orissa during monsoon season (June–September). For this purpose, different statistical characteristics, such as
mean, coefficient of variation, trends and periodicities in the rainfall and the frequencies of different categories of cyclonic
disturbances affecting Orissa, were analysed from 100 years (1901–2000) of data. The basic objective of the study was to find
out the contribution of inter-annual variability in the frequency of cyclonic disturbances to the inter-annual variability
of monsoon rainfall over Orissa.
The relationship between summer monsoon rainfall over Orissa and the frequency of cyclonic disturbances affecting Orissa shows
temporal variation. The correlation between them has significantly decreased since the 1950s. The variation in their relationship
is mainly due to the variation in the frequency of cyclonic disturbances affecting Orissa. The variability of both rainfall
and total cyclonic disturbances has been above normal since the 1960s, leading to more floods and droughts over Orissa during
recent years. The inter-annual variability of seasonal rainfall over Orissa and the frequency of cyclonic disturbances affecting
Orissa during monsoon season show a quasi-biennial oscillation period of 2–2.8 years. There is least impact of El Nino southern
oscillation (ENSO) on inter-annual variability of both the seasonal rainfall over Orissa and the frequencies of monsoon depressions/total
cyclonic disturbances affecting Orissa. 相似文献

Orissa State, a meteorological subdivision of India, lies on the east coast of India close to north Bay of Bengal and to the
south of the normal position of the monsoon trough. The monsoon disturbances such as depressions and cyclonic storms mostly
develop to the north of 15° N over the Bay of Bengal and move along the monsoon trough. As Orissa lies in the southwest sector
of such disturbances, it experiences very heavy rainfall due to the interaction of these systems with mesoscale convection
sometimes leading to flood. The orography due to the Eastern Ghat and other hill peaks in Orissa and environs play a significant
role in this interaction. The objective of this study is to develop an objective statistical model to predict the occurrence
and quantity of precipitation during the next 24 hours over specific locations of Orissa, due to monsoon disturbances over
north Bay and adjoining west central Bay of Bengal based on observations to up 0300 UTC of the day. A probability of precipitation
(PoP) model has been developed by applying forward stepwise regression with available surface and upper air meteorological
parameters observed in and around Orissa in association with monsoon disturbances during the summer monsoon season (June-September).
The PoP forecast has been converted into the deterministic occurrence/non-occurrence of precipitation forecast using the critical
value of PoP. The parameters selected through stepwise regression have been considered to develop quantitative precipitation
forecast (QPF) model using multiple discriminant analysis (MDA) for categorical prediction of precipitation in different ranges
such as 0.1–10, 11–25, 26–50, 51–100 and >100 mm if the occurrence of precipitation is predicted by PoP model. All the above
models have been developed based on data of summer monsoon seasons of 1980–1994, and data during 1995–1998 have been used
for testing the skill of the models. Considering six representative stations for six homogeneous regions in Orissa, the PoP
model performs very well with percentages of correct forecast for occurrence/non-occurrence of precipitation being about 96%
and 88%, respectively for developmental and independent data. The skill of the QPF model, though relatively less, is reasonable
for lower ranges of precipitation. The skill of the model is limited for higher ranges of precipitation.

The variability in water chemistry of samples taken on a monthly basis (March 1999 to February 2000) from two shallow tropical ponds was studied. The effect of location and pond depth on water chemistry was also examined. The study demonstrated that intraannual variability in nutrient concentration is high. Thus, a high annual sampling frequency is required to provide representative annual mean water quality data. Routine monitoring during the monsoons is important for studies on dissolved oxygen and macrophyte growth. Significant differences were found between the topmost and bottommost points for samples of dissolved oxygen collected from the deepest part of both ponds. For nutrient analysis (nitrogen and phosphorus), sample from any location was found to be representative of the whole pond. 相似文献

Bauxite occurring as a blanket over volcanics of Precambrian Iron Ore Group in Kusumdih and Jaldih of Sundergarh district, Odisha, Eastern India exhibits four types of morphology viz. pisolitic, disseminated, spotted and massive. The volcanics/tuffs are altered to shale and is predominantly constituted of kaolinite. Microstructures documented in different morphologies of bauxite are collomorphous, framework, chain, stalactitic, reticulate, vesicle filled and foliated-platy types. Gibbsite, diaspore and kaolinite exhibit the abovementioned morphological and microstructural features. The morphological and microstructural characteristics are interpreted in terms of genetic evolution of aluminous minerals of bauxite in such a setup. Gibbsite and diaspore are formed through solution and precipitation/recrystallisation from kaolinite booklets present in parent tuffaceous shales. Some diaspores were formed at the expense of gibbsites. Small well-ordered kaolinites are of authigenic nature. Kaolinite formed inside a localized closed system containing supersaturated solution exhibits growth spirals. The textural and morphological diversities of the bauxite, abundance of well-ordered bauxite minerals and the absence of any iron/silica phase along with limited occurrence of primary kaolinite together suggest that the deposit has attained a high degree of bauxitisation in weathering environment at surface temperature. 相似文献

Mirror matter models have been suggested recently as an explanation of neutrino puzzles and microlensing anomalies. We show that mirror supernovae can be a copious source of energetic gamma rays if one assumes that the quantum gravity scale is in the TeV range. We show that under certain assumptions plausible in the mirror models, the gamma energies could be degraded to the 10 MeV range (and perhaps even further) so as to provide an explanation of observed gamma-ray bursts. This mechanism for the origin of the gamma-ray bursts has the advantage that it neatly avoids the “baryon load problem”. 相似文献

Potential chromite ore deposits of India are situated in Sukinda, Odisha, which may also be considered as a potential resource for platinum group elements (PGEs). This paper reports on PGE geochemistry in twenty six samples covering chromite ores, chromitites and associated ultramafic rocks of the Sukinda ultramafic complex. Platinum group element contents range from 213 to 487 ppb in the chromite ore body, from 63 to 538 ppb in rocks that have chromite dendrites or dissemination and from 38 to 389 ppb in associated olivine–peridotite, serpentinite, pyroxenite and brecciated rocks. The PGEs are divided into two sub‐groups: IPGE (Ir, Os, and Ru) and PPGE (Pd, Pt, and Rh) based on their chemical behaviour. The IPGE and PPGE in these three litho‐members show a contrasting relationship e.g. average IPGE content decreases from chromite to chromitite and associated rocks while PPGE increases in the same order. Appreciable Ag in chromitite (270–842 ppb) is recorded. Positive correlation between IPGE with Cr2O3 and with Al2O3 is observed while these are negatively correlated with MgO. Covariant relationships between Au and Mg in rocks devoid of chromite and between Ag and Fe in chromitite sample are observed. Chromite in all seams and some chromitite samples exhibit an IPGE‐enriched chondrite normalized pattern while PPGE are highly fractionated and show a steep negative slope, thereby indicating that PGE in the parental melt fractionates and IPGE‐compatible elements prefer to settle with chromite. The rocks devoid of chromite and rocks containing accessory chromite exhibit a nearly flat pattern in chondrite‐normalized PGE plots and this suggests a limited fractionation of PGE in these rocks. Variation in the distribution pattern of PGE and Ag in three typical litho‐members of the Sukinda Valley may be related to multiple intrusion of ultramafic magma, containing variable volume percentage of chromite. 相似文献

Abstract— We have determined the recoil range of spallation xenon produced by irradiation of Ba glass targets with ?1190 and ?268 MeV protons, using a catcher technique, where spallation products are measured in target and catcher foils. The inferred range for 126Xe produced in silicon carbide is ?0.19 μm, which implies retention of ?70% for 126Xe produced in “typical” presolar silicon carbide grains of 1 μm size. Recoil loss of spallation xenon poses a significantly smaller problem than loss of the spallation neon from SiC grains. Ranges differ for the various Xe isotopes and scale approximately linearly as function of the mass difference between the target element, Ba, and the product. As a consequence, SiC grains of various sizes will have differences in spallation Xe composition. In an additional experiment at ?66 MeV, where the recoil ranges of 22Na and 127Xe produced on Ba glass were determined using γ‐spectrometry, we found no evidence for recoil ranges being systematically different at this lower energy. We have used the new data to put constraints on the possible presolar age of the SiC grains analyzed for Xe by Lewis et al. (1994). Uncertainties in the composition of the approximately normal Xe component in SiC (Xe‐N) constitute the most serious problem in determining an age, surpassing remaining uncertainties in Xe retention and production rate. A possible interpretation is that spallation contributions are negligible and that trapped 124Xe/126Xe is ?5% lower in Xe‐N than in Q‐Xe. But also for other reasonable assumptions for the 124Xe/126Xe ratio in Xe‐N (e.g., as in Q‐Xe), inferred exposure ages are considerably shorter than theoretically expected lifetimes for interstellar grains. A short presolar age is in line with observations by others (appearance, grain size distribution) that indicate little processing in the interstellar medium (ISM) of surviving (crystalline) SiC. This may be due to amorphization of SiC in the ISM on a much shorter time scale than destruction, with amorphous SiC not surviving processing in the early solar system. A large supply of relatively young grains may be connected to the proposed starburst origin (Clayton 2003) for the parent stars of the mainstream SiC grains. 相似文献

Sundarban, the largest single patch of mangrove forest of the world is shared by Bangladesh (~ 60 %) and India (~ 40 %). Loss of mangrove biomass and subsequent potential emission of carbon dioxide is reported from different parts of the world. We estimated the loss of above ground mangrove biomass and subsequent potential emission of carbon dioxide in the Indian part of the Sundarban during the last four decades. The loss of mangrove area has been estimated with the help of remotely sensed data and potential emission of carbon dioxide has been evaluated with the help of published above ground biomass data of Indian Sundarban. Total loss of mangrove area was found to be 107 km2 between the year 1975 and 2013. Amongst the total loss ~60 % was washed away in the water by erosion, ~ 23 % was converted into barren lands and the rest were anthropogenically transformed into other landforms. The potential carbon dioxide emission due to the degradation of above ground biomass was estimated to be 1567.98 ± 551.69 Gg during this period, which may account to 64.29 million $ in terms of the social cost of carbon. About three-forth of the total mangrove loss was found in the peripheral islands which are much more prone to erosion. Climate induced changes and anthropogenic land use change could be the major driving force behind this loss of ‘blue carbon’. 相似文献

The structural and spectroscopic characteristics of phosphatic ferruginous shale samples from the Bijawar Group rocks from Sagar District of Madhya Pradesh (India) have been probed for identification of uranium species. Fluorapatite (\(\hbox {Ca}_{5}\hbox {(PO}_{4})_{3}\hbox {F}\), FAP) and haematite (\(\upalpha \)-\(\hbox {Fe}_{2}\hbox {O}_{3}\)) were identified as the main phases in the separated mineral concentrates. The photoluminescence (PL) and X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy (XANES) studies pointed to a strong experimental evidence of both U(IV) and U(VI) oxidation states in the mineral concentrate portion obtained from the same parent host rock. The PL spectrum has confirmed the charge transfer (f–d) transition bands in UV and near-UV regions with emission peaks at ca. 290, 313, 336, 399 and 416 nm, which has been attributed to the substitution of \(\hbox {Ca}^{2+}\) ions by U(IV) in FAP and broad structureless emission due to stabilisation of U(VI) as \(\hbox {UO}_{6}^{6-}\) in haematite. Time-resolved spectroscopy studies have revealed biexponential decay components lasting 2–5 ns for U(IV) species and \(10\,\upmu \hbox {s}\) for U(VI) species. These characterisations revealed the fundamental information about the oxidation state and form of uranium in this region. Remediation measures for the Bijawar region are also suggested. 相似文献
