Sahay, Amit (2005)

The Great Boundary Fault is a major tectonic lineament in the northwestern India thatruns close to the contact between the Vindhyan sedimentary rocks (ca. 1400-600 Ma) and the pre-Vindhyan rocks. Despite the fact that ...

GLACIO-HYDROLOGICAL STUDIES OF THE GANGOTRI GLACIER BASIN, HIMALAYAS

Haritashya, Umesh Kumar (2005)

Glaciers currently cover about 10.7% of the earth's surface. Total water resources of our planet are 1359x106km3, out of which only 38x106 km3 (2.78%) is available in the form of fresh water. Glaciers and large ice sheets ...

DEVELOPMENT OF REMOTE SENSING BASED GEOTHERMIC TECHNIQUES IN EARTHQUAKE STUDIES

Choudhury, Swapnamita (2005)

Earthquakes, the most unexpected and perhaps the most devastating natural calamity on earth, have imbibed interest in scientists from time immemorial. Studies on mechanism, cause, measurement of intensity and magnitude ...

GIS-BASED STUDY FOR ROUTE PLANNING IN LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBLE TERRAIN

Saha, Ashis Kumar (2004)

Himalayas constitute the loftiest and the youngest mountain system on the Earth. Owing to their spread, elevation and general ruggedness, most of the regions in the Himalayas are not easily accessible, roads providing ...
