Apart from these studies the passive characteristic features such as size, shape, roundness, porosity and permeability of beach sediment with different characteristic are accountable for this study. The hydraulic condition of the study area mainly composed on the elevation and beach groundwater table. The groundwater levels of all tube wells or piezometric wells at vellappatti beach are controlled by wave and tidal impact due to the subsurface condition of the soil deposition and evolution of Van Island. The above experimental data plotted time vs piezometric level is increase slowly, constant, fast, irregularly patterns used for the factors. The supporting of dumpy level data and 2D Electrical Resistivity imaging technique is used for the comparative study.  <#LINE#> @ @ Antony Ravindran A., Azimuthal Square Array Resistivity Method and Goundwater Exploration in Sanganoor, Coimbatore District, Tamilnadu, India, Research Journal of Recent Sciences,1(4), 41-45 (2012) @No $ @ @ Gwal A.K., Jain Kumar Santosh, Panda Gopal and Gujar Y.S., Study of Ionospheric Perturbations during Strong Seismic Activity by NmF2 Data, Res.

Digital change detection is the process that helps in determining the changes associated with land use and land cover properties with reference to geo-registered multi temporal remote sensing data. The objective of this paper is to analyse the land use land cover changes in Golaghat district of Assam. Using multi temporal remote sensing data (LANDSAT ETM 1989, and IRS LISS III 2009) land use land cover changes has been performed.  Result shows the change that has been occurred during 20 years of period. <#LINE#> @ @ Gautam N.C. and Narayanan E.R., Satellite remotechniques for natural resources survey, Management, edited by L.R.

<#LINE#>Emissions from Crop/Biomass Residue Burning Risk to Atmospheric Quality<#LINE#>Satyendra@Tripathi,R N@Singh,Shaishav@Sharma<#LINE#>24-30<#LINE#>4.ISCA-IRJES-2013-005.pdf<#LINE#> School of Energy and Environmental Studies, Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya, Takshashila Campus, Indore, MP, INDIA <#LINE#>6/11/2012<#LINE#>27/12/2012<#LINE#> Recent crop harvesting practices use mechanical harvesters in the rice and wheat farm system in India. These practices leave behind large quantities of crop residue in the field. However, there is no suitable method available for managing the crop residues. Crop residues / biomass burning are cheap and easiest method to dispose the leftover crop residues (wheat, rice, sugarcane etc.) after harvesting, for land clearing and pest control. Burning of crop residues is a common approach to eliminate waste after harvesting all over the world.  Burning of these residues emit gases like sulphur dioxide (SO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon dioxide (CO), carbon monoxide (CO), black carbon (BC), organic carbon (OC), methane (CH), volatile organic compounds (VOC), non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs), ozone (O), and aerosols etc which affect the global atmospheric chemistry and climate. Crop residues / biomass burning not only influence theatmospheric air quality including climate, it also affects the human health. This review covers the burning of crop residues / biomass and its affect on atmospheric quality and climate and also suggested some management options for crop residue/biomass besides burning which may be reducing the air pollution, climate as well as possibility of risk on human health.  <#LINE#> @ @ Sharma A.R, Kharol S.K., Badarinath K.V.S. and Singh D., Impact of agriculture crop residue burning on atmospheric aerosol loading – a study over Punjab State, India Ann.
