In this era of rapid global change, biodiversity monitoring and improving species repository to meet requirements toward conservation is costly affairs and needs a practical solution to identify and locate species with habitats. The integrated approach of citizen science and information technologies has proven to be effective solution for geographical and taxonomical data collection with public engagement, covering local to national scale. As a first step, a mobile app is designed and developed for the IBIN (Indian Bioresource Information Network), a digitized collection of the biological resources of India that serves as a common platform to access spatial and non-spatial information on biorecources can host their data through this single and intuitive platform with full privileges and authenticity. IBIN mobile app can be seen as an efficient and rapid solution to record data on species, utilizing GPS and camera features of mobile devices. Present paper deals with the citizen science approaches, its contribution in biodiversity field, outlines the design and development of IBIN mobile app and its first case study carried out at foothills of Himalaya. 相似文献

The Gulf of Kachchh (GoK) is situated in the northeastern Arabian Sea. The presence of several industries along its coastal belt makes GoK a highly sensitive coastal ecosystem. In the present study, an attempt is made for the first time to study GoK thermohaline structure and its variability, based on field measurements and model simulations. Though GoK is considered as a well-mixed system, the study reveals that only the central Gulf is well mixed. Vertical gradients in temperature and salinity fields are noticed in the eastern Gulf, where a cold and high saline tongue is observed in the subsurface layers. Salinity indicates the characteristic feature of an inverse estuary with low values (37.20 psu) near the mouth and high values (>40.0 psu) near the head of the Gulf. The model simulated temperature and salinity fields exhibit semidiurnal oscillations similar to that of field observations. Model results show cold, high saline waters advecting from the east during ebb forming a transition zone, which oscillates with tides. A high salinity tongue is seen in the bottom layer, indicating a westward flowing bottom current. The transient zone acts as an dynamic barrier, and plays a vital role in the pollutant transport. 相似文献

Measurements are reported of rainfall, throughfall, stemflow, and derived interception losses made on a daily basis during two consecutive rainy seasons in a 4–5 year old and rapidly growing plantation forest of Acacia auriculiformis in a humid tropical environment. During the first observation period throughfall, stemflow, and interception loss amounted to respectively 81, 8, and 11 per cent of gross precipitation, whilst corresponding values for the second observation period were 75, 7, and 18 per cent. All three components correlated strongly with amounts of daily rainfall, but slopes of linear regression equations differed significantly between seasons for each component. Such differences are thought to reflect a 20 per cent increase in foliar mass as well as a certain instrumental bias introduced by the use of a fixed grid of throughfall troughs that differed between seasons. Tests did not reveal any effects of differences in rainfall characteristics although the two observation periods differed markedly in this respect. Although the present results fell within the (lower part of the) range reported for other sites in Southeast Asia application of Gash's analytical model suggested the results obtained during the second observation period to be anomalous. The model was tested with data from the second halves of the two observation periods, using parameters derived from the corresponding first halves. Discrepancies between estimated and observed losses were +9·4 and ?14·3 per cent for the two periods respectively. The bulk of the interception loss consisted of evaporation from a saturated canopy (69–80 per cent) and of evaporation after rainfall had ceased (25 and 15 per cent for the two periods respectively). Although the results were encouraging it would seem that a major difficulty in applying the analytical model to the humid tropics lies in obtaining a reliable estimate of the evaporation rate from a saturated canopy. 相似文献

In the present paper, a method of analysis for calculating the pressure intensity corresponding to a given settlement for
eccentrically and obliquely loaded square and rectangular footings resting on reinforced soil foundation has been presented.
The process has been simplified by presenting non-dimensional charts for the various terms used in the analysis, which can
be directly used by practicing engineers. An approximate method has been suggested to find out the ultimate bearing capacity
of such footings on reinforced soil. The results have been validated with the model test results. The procedure has been made
clear by giving an illustrative example. 相似文献

Analysis and Design of Retaining Wall having Reinforced Cohesive Frictional Backfill 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The case of a rigid wall with inclined back face retaining reinforced cohesive-frictional backfill subjected to uniformly
distributed surcharge load has been analyzed using limit equilibrium approach. The analysis considers the stability of an
element of the failure wedge, which is assumed to develop in the reinforced earth mass adjoining the back face of wall. The
non-dimensional charts have been developed for computing the lateral earth pressure on wall and the height of its point of
application above the base of wall. The theoretical findings have been verified by model tests on a rigid wall retaining a
dry cohesive-frictional soil reinforced by geogrid strips. Experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical
predictions. A design example has been included to illustrate the design procedure. 相似文献
