Watershed prioritization is the ranking of different critical sub watersheds according to the order in which they have to be taken up for the treatment by soil and water conservation measures. A particular sub watershed may get top priority due to various reasons but often the intensity of land degradation is taken as the basis....

Metals are vital to human but it can be toxic at higher levels, even if some elements are toxic at trace levels such as Hg, Cd, Pb and Cr, etc. In the present study, the site was divided to three categories such as mining, industrial and residential area....

The demand for petroleum has risen rapidly due to increasing industrialization and modernization of the world. This economic development has led to a huge demand for energy, where the major part of that energy is derived from fossil sources such as petroleum, coal and natural gas....

The snails belonging to the family Lymnaeidae are known to act as intermediate host of both animal and human fascioliasis causes trematodes. Although the snails do not play an active role in transmission of the parasite from one host to another, as insect vectors do it is an indispensable intermediate host for the development of the parasite....

One of the purposes of our work was the development of self-assembled photonic crystal for lowthreshold lasers. We have studied the spectral properties of two types of active PC matrix fabricated by horizontal self-assembly of dye doped polystyrene colloids in ambient conditions....

This work deals with all aspects of luminescent materials basic,applications and advanced developments.Solid state lighting is an emerging field of research.The book is focus on synthesis of nanophosphors and their applications. We have studied series of rare earth activators e.g....

Leachate is highly polluted liquid due to high content of ammonium ions and organic compounds. The high ammonia content causes the problem when leachate move downwards from landfill into ground-water table as a result of infiltrated precipitation, ground-water gets contaminated. Once groundwater is contaminated it is very costly to clean-up....

This book presents a new technique to enhance heat transfer coefficient of double pipe heat exchanger. Heat transfer enhancement is the practice of modifying a heat transfer surface to increase the heat transfer coefficient between the surface and fluid....

Owing to the demand for better living quality of immobilized patients, and working condition of caregiver, the functions and the convenience of hospital bed should be improved accordingly. Transferring of immobilized patients is usually the work of nursing staff....

Sustainable crop production is a challenge towards modern agriculture. So, we need to develop and adopt such kind of innovative techniques who can produce more with limited resources, which must be suitable for various crops and cropping systems. As there is a direct relation between tillage and production....
