This paper contains a numerical analysis of stability, order of accuracy and consistencyof the staggered grid finite difference scheme, used on the elastic wave-equation, as de-scribed by Levander (1988). 1 Finite Difference Analysis1.1 Analysis of Finite Difference SchemesA given partial differential equation can be solved using finite differences. As an example,conside...

Abstract A plausible origin of the seismically observed mid-lithospheric discontinuity (MLD) in subcontinental lithosphere is mantle metasomatism. The metasomatized likely to stabilize hydrous phases such as amphiboles. existing electrical conductivity data on amphiboles vary significantly. hornblendite much higher than that tremolite. Thus, if truly represents amphibole varieties MLD regions, ...

1. To prepare various thematic layers such as drainage density, lineament density, slope, lithology, geomorphology and landuse/land cover using SOI topographical maps, remote sensing data and GIS. 2. To prioritize the weightages of individual themes and feature score depending upon their suitability to hold groundwater. 3. To prepare the integrated final groundwater potential map (GPM) using th...

Abstract Most conventional statistical methods aiming at defining geochemical concentration thresholds for separating anomalies from background have limited effectiveness in areas with complex geological settings and variable lithology. In this paper, median+2MAD as a method of exploratory data analysis (EDA) and concentration-area (C-A) fractal model as two effective approaches in separation g...
