The dielectric tensor, modified plasma dispersion function and dispersion relation for Whistler mode instability in an infinite magnetoplasma are obtained in the case of cold plasma injection to background hot anisotropic generalized bi-Lorentzian (κ) plasma in the presence of external perpendicular a.c. electric field. The method of characteristics solutions using perturbed and unperturbed particle trajectories have been used to determine the perturbed distribution function. Integrals and modified plasma dispersion function Z_κ ^*(ξ ) are reduced in power series expansion form. Numerical methods using computer technique have been used to obtained temporal growth rate for magnetospheric plasma at geostationary height. The bi-Lorentzian (κ) plasma is reducible to various forms of distribution function by changing the spectral index κ. The results of bi-Lorentzian (κ) plasma are compared with those of bi-Maxwellian plasma. It has been found that the addition of cold plasma injection gives different frequency spectra. The a.c. frequency of moderate amplitude increases the growth rate and instability in K space to lower range. Growth rate maximum is not affected by a.c. frequencies. However, it shifts the maximum to lower K space in both cases, rather than on the variation of the magnitude. Thus a physical situation like this may explain emission of various high frequency whistler emissions by cold plasma injection. The potential application of controlled plasma experiments in the laboratory and for planetary atmosphere are indicated. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献   

The seasonal predictability of the Asian summer monsoon in a two-tiered forecast system     

Vasubandhu Misra  H. Li 《Climate Dynamics》2014,42(9-10):2491-2507

An extensive set of boreal summer seasonal hindcasts from a two tier system is compared with corresponding seasonal hindcasts from two other coupled ocean–atmosphere models for their seasonal prediction skill (for precipitation and surface temperature) of the Asian summer monsoon. The unique aspect of the two-tier system is that it is at relatively high resolution and the SST forcing is uniquely bias corrected from the multi-model averaged forecasted SST from the two coupled ocean–atmosphere models. Our analysis reveals: (a) The two-tier forecast system has seasonal prediction skill for precipitation that is comparable (over the Southeast Asian monsoon) or even higher (over the South Asian monsoon) than the coupled ocean–atmosphere. For seasonal anomalies of the surface temperature the results are more comparable across models, with all of them showing higher skill than that for precipitation. (b) Despite the improvement from the uncoupled AGCM all models in this study display a deterministic skill for seasonal precipitation anomalies over the Asian summer monsoon region to be weak. But there is useful probabilistic skill for tercile anomalies of precipitation and surface temperature that could be harvested from both the coupled and the uncoupled climate models. (c) Seasonal predictability of the South Asian summer monsoon (rainfall and temperature) does seem to stem from the remote ENSO forcing especially over the Indian monsoon region and the relatively weaker seasonal predictability in the Southeast Asian summer monsoon could be related to the comparatively weaker teleconnection with ENSO. The uncoupled AGCM with the bias corrected SST is able to leverage this teleconnection for improved seasonal prediction skill of the South Asian monsoon relative to the coupled models which display large systematic errors of the tropical SST’s.  相似文献   

Modeling the depletion of dissolved oxygen in a lake due to algal bloom: Effect of time delay     

A.K. Misra  Peeyush ChandraV. Raghavendra 《Advances in water resources》2011,34(10):1232-1238

We propose and analyze a non-linear mathematical model for algal bloom in a lake to account for the delay in conversion of detritus into nutrients. It is assumed that there is a continuous inflow of nutrients in the lake due to agricultural run off. The model involves four variables, namely nutrient concentration, algal population density, detritus density and dissolved oxygen concentration. The dynamics of the model is studied in terms of local stability analysis and Hopf-bifurcation analysis. It is found that the positive equilibrium of the model may switch from stability to instability to stability, and eventually instability sets in under certain conditions. The numerical simulation is performed to support the analytical results.  相似文献

Evaluation of fertility indicators associated with arsenic-contaminated paddy fields soil   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

P. S. Chauhan  S. K. Mishra  S. Misra  V. K. Dixit  S. Pandey  P. Khare  M. H. Khan  S. Dwivedi  A. Lehri 《International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology》2018,15(11):2447-2458

Emerging environmental issues related to heavy metal contamination in rice draw great concern about the soil quality of paddy farming lands irrigated with groundwater. Investigating the functioning of soil microorganisms exposed to heavy metal contamination is imperative for agricultural soil manipulations. The current study accentuates the influence of heavy metals on microbial activity and community composition in arable soil of West Bengal State of India. The result revealed that the fertility indicators (activity of all soil enzymes) and growth-limiting factors (soil N and P) were negatively correlated with the heavy metal stress except the soil total organic content which demonstrated significant positive correlation with the heavy metals. In case of functional diversity of soil, all the considered diversity indices exhibited no specific pattern along with the availability of heavy metals. Further, despite the heavy metal contamination, we observed a very complex and indifferent pattern of bacterial community composition along the heavy metal contamination sites. Overall, we found that γ-Proteobacteria had been the most abundant bacterial community followed by Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, β-Proteobacteria and α-Proteobacteria. Commemorating all the results, we can infer that arsenic and other heavy metal contamination is deteriorating the soil quality and hence warrants immediate attention of concerned soil scientist and agronomists.  相似文献   

Modeling the X-Ray Timing Properties of Cygnus X-1 Caused by Waves Propagating in a Transition Disk     

Misra R 《The Astrophysical journal》2000,535(2):L95-L98

We found a subsystem of globular clusters in M31 that appears to have a formation history separate from the rest. The member clusters of this subsystem, identified from their distinct distribution in the metallicity-distance diagram, (1) have a common medium metallicity range of -0.9<&sqbl0;Fe&solm0;H&sqbr0;<-0.4, (2) have a line-of-sight velocity distribution with no significant projected rotational motion, and (3) are populated outside the inner subsystem of globular clusters of similar metallicity that shows a significant net rotational motion as a whole. We suggest that this subsystem of globular clusters was formed during a merging event of a dwarf galaxy that took place well after the initial collapse event when most of the globular clusters in M31 were formed.  相似文献   

Archean Granitoids at the Contact of Eastern Ghat Granulite Belt and Singhbhum-Orissa Craton, in Bhuban-Rengali Sector, Orissa, India     

S. Misra  S. Moitra  S. Bhattacharya  T.V. Sivaraman 《Gondwana Research》2000,3(2):205

The small granite plutons occurring at the contact of the Singhbhum-Orissa Iron Ore craton (IOC) to the north and the Eastern Ghat Granulite Belt (EGGB) to the south in eastern Indian shield are characterised by the presence of enclaves of the granulites of EGGB and the greenschist facies rocks of IOC. These granites also bear the imprints of later cataclastic deformation which is present at the contact of the IOC and the EGGB. In situ Pb-Pb zircon dating of these granites gives minimum age of their formation 2.80 Ga. A whole-rock three point Rb-Sr isochron age of this rock is found to be 2.90 Ga. Therefore, the true age of formation of these granites will be around 2.90–2.80 Ga. These granitic rocks also contain xenocrystic zircon components of 3.50 Ga and show a later metasomatic or metamorphic effect 2.48 Ga obtained from the analyses on overgrowths developed on 2.80 Ga old zircon cores. The presence of granulitic enclaves within these contact zone granite indicates that the granulite facies metamorphism of the EGGB is 2.80 Ga or still older in age. The cataclastic deformations observed at the contact zone of the two adjacent cratons is definitely younger than 2.80 Ga and possibly related to 2.48 Ga event observed from the overgrowths. As 2.80 Ga granite plutons of small dimensions are also observed at the western margin of the IOC; it can be concluded that a geologic event occurred 2.80 Ga over the IOC when small granite bodies evolved at the marginal part of this craton after its stabilisation at 3.09 Ga.  相似文献

In the eastern part of the Indian shield,late PaleozoiceMesozoic sedimentary rocks of the Talchir Basin lie precisely along a contact of Neoproterozoic age between granulites of the Eastern Ghats Mobile Belt(EGMB)and amphibolite facies rocks of the Rengali Province.At present,the northern part of the basin experiences periodic seismicity by reactivation of faults located both within the basin,and in the Rengali Province to the north.Detailed gravity data collected across the basin show that Bouguer anomalies decrease from the EGMB(wt15 mGal),through the basin(w 10 mGal),into the Rengali Province(w 15 mGal).The data are consistent with the reportedly uncompensated nature of the EGMB,and indicate that the crust below the Rengali Province has a cratonic gravity signature.The contact between the two domains with distinct sub-surface structure,inferred from gravity data,coincides with the North Orissa Boundary Fault(NOBF)that defnes the northern boundary of the Talchir Basin.Post-Gondwana faults are also localized along the northern margin of the basin,and present-day seismic tremors also have epicenters close to the NOBF.This indicates that the NOBF was formed by reactivation of a Neoproterozoic terrane boundary,and continues to be susceptible to seismic activity even at the present-day.  相似文献   

Corrected Hawking temperature of Warped AdS3 rotating Black Hole by using tunneling method     

Rajesh Misra  Chandra Rekha Mahanta 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2013,344(1):63-67

In this paper, we have calculated the corrected Hawking temperature for the Warped AdS₃ rotating Black Hole by using the tunneling method beyond the semi-classical approximation for the Warped AdS₃ rotating Black Hole. For this purpose, we have isolated the r-t sector of the metric from the angular part throughout a coordinate transformation near the horizon.  相似文献
