Abstract:

In the foothills of Shiwalik Himalaya, torrents are the prominent seasonal land features and characterized by high sediment ladder flash flow during monsoon period. These torrents have low banks and thus the flow frequently over tops the banks and causes floods in foot hill region to agricultural plain area. In present study, morphological, water and soil characteristics were studied with special references to torrential behavior and flow mechanics of torrent at Sabhawala watershed in Doon Valley of Garhwal Himalaya. The torrent gradient had varied from 1-75 to 2-62 % with flow velocity was 0.

Abstract:

The study conducted in arid areas of Dera Ghazi Khan occasionally affected by hill torrents (Suri-Lund, Vidore, Sakhi-Sarwar, Mithawan) coming from Koh-e-Suleman range. The study found that hill torrent water is used for agriculture, domestic and livestock. The management of this water significantly affects on income, crop yield, soil fertility, health conditions and living standard of farmers. The local cost effective methods to store this water include wah, dubba and bundh but most of water is wasted as they are insufficient. The water distribution mechanism fosters cooperation and helps to

Abstract:

A field study was conducted to estimate the seasonal and regional variations in physicochemical characteristics of water of the hill torrents located in Azad Jammu & Kashmir where torrent water is used for drinking purposes. Ten torrents within the populated areas were selected and analyzed for about 30 parameters, including four major and seven minor metal contents. The monitoring was carried out for summer, autumn and winter during 2004 â€“ 2005. Total dissolved solids (TDS) were observed within 145 â€“ 561 Î¼g/ml and 50 % of the torrent water crossed the limit of 500 Î¼g/ml for TDS. For

The use of the right tillage technique can help promote higher earnings, crop productivity, soil improvement, and the most effective use of available water resources. The field experiment was conducted in the Vidor Hill torrent command area of Dera Ghazi Khan Punjab, Pakistan during the winter of 2021-22. In this experiment, tillage treatments including cultivator and rotavator were assessed as follows i.e. T1= 2-times cultivator (farmer practice), T2=3-times cultivator, T3=2-times cultivator + rotavator, T4= cultivator + rotavator.

Abstract:

Hill Torrent is a flash hill stream with steep slopes, prone to sudden surges of high volumes of water after rain in the catchment area carrying high sediment loads which causes heavy loss to the infrastructure, population, livestock and livelihood etc. If harnessed and managed properly, this water can play a vital role in national growth by contributing as a significant water resource. Punjab Irrigation Department (PID) intends to adopt some suitable options for the management of hill torrents in the Koh-e-Suleman Range (KSR) to control the damages and regulate the water for better use.

Selection of suitable tillage technique can ensure most productive use of available hill torrent water in spate irrigated areas for improved crop productivity and profitability. During rabi season 2021-22, a field study on chickpea was undertaken in Vidor hill torrent command area of Dera Ghazi Khan Punjab, Pakistan. In this experiment three cultivars of chickpea viz Bittle-2016, Thal-2020 and Bhakhar-2011 were evaluated under spate irrigated conditions along with local cultivar (Farmer practice) for comparison.

My first direct encounter with feng-shui came soon after I arrived in Hong Kong in 1965. A new hospital was being built on a hill overlooking Castle Peak Bay, where my family and I lived. The hospital foundations cut deep into the slope. Several old peasants told me, “This is very bad; the construction has cut the dragon’s pulse.” I learned that the hill had a dragon in it, whose blood circulation had been cut by the foundation trench. This seemed strange to me. I noted it down as a fascinating local belief, and thought no more of it. Soon afterward, a typhoon dumped two feet of rain on Hong K

Es bien conocida la idea de Ralph Waldo Emerson sobre las desgracias humanas: a una persona sabia, todas las experiencias le deben resultar provechosas. Pero ¿no es acaso desmedida esa demanda? ¿Podemos pedir que un evento tan devastador como puede serlo una pandemia resulte “provechoso”? En la lengua hispana fue Antonio Machado quien insistió en esta idea: la labor creativa por excelencia consiste en saber transformar la hiel en miel y no es otra cosa lo que demanda Emerson con su conocida frase.

Internal edifications to the city wall have progressively taken over the wall and, in its outside part, an area as wide as the towers has been occupied, which has eventually set up the front part of Torreta street.

Located on the Rocky Promontory overlooking the town of Caprona, the Upezzinghi Tower is a 19th-century reconstruction of a watchtower that once served the ancient castle, which existed in the mid-11th century and was destroyed by the Florentines in 1433. The hill on which it stands has been gradually eroded due to stone quarrying, significantly altering the landscape around Caprona. Until the mid of the last century, the rocky promontory was still substantially intact, and the remains of the medieval fortress could be identified beneath the tower.
