Occurrence of volcanic ash in the Quaternary alluvial deposits, lower Narmada basin, western India

The Importance of Soil and Alluvial and Quaternary Deposits Conditions in Seismic Risk Analysis

The land of Iran is a seismic active prone that is located in the mountainous and instable crust due to special geological position. Continuous tectonic stress from the Arabic and Indian plates has exposed seismic active faults. The huge and destructive earthquakes that occur every few years in this area reflect the tectonic conditions of the plateau of Iran. Since, the path of faults and fract...

Homo Erectus India

The Quaternary tract of Narmada basin covers an area of abut 12950 sq.km starting from west of Jabalpur (2307790530) to east of Handia (22 29’; 76 58’) for a distance of about 320 km. It is found to be ideal locus of Quaternary sedimentation in Central India, as witnessed by multi-cyclic sequence of Quaternary terraces in the valley. The total estimated thickness of Quaternary sediments in the ...

The occurrence and behaviour of fluoride in the groundwater of the Lower Vamsadhara River basin, India

Reports on the occurrence of fluoride in natural water resources and the associated health hazards due to human consumption have been made from many parts of India during the last decade. With the objective of organizing a systematic scientific programme to understand the behaviour of fluoride in natural water resources in relation to the local hydrogeological and climatic conditions and agricu...
