In this study, the simulation of an extreme weather event like heavy rainfall over Mumbai (India) on July 26, 2005 has been attempted with different horizontal resolutions using the Advanced Research Weather Research Forecast model version 2.0.1 developed at the National Center for Atmospheric...

A new model has been developed for track prediction of Indian Ocean cyclones. The model utilizes environmental steering flow using the forecasts from a high-resolution global model and the effect due to earth’s rotation (the beta-effect) to determine the future movement of cyclone. A new...

The impact of realistic representation of sea surface temperature (SST) on the numerical simulation of track and intensity of tropical cyclones formed over the north Indian Ocean is studied using the Weather Research and Forecast (WRF) model. We have selected two intense tropical cyclones formed...

The incidence and depth of food and nutritional insecurity has been estimated and its determinants in a food-surplus area, viz. the state of Punjab, have been studied. The consumption expenditure has been found to be directly associated with the levels of income/assets in both rural and urban...

Student’s changing lifestyle, teaching methodology and technology leads to non attendance of lectures at college and university level. Among all factors, whether or not attending lectures affects a student’s exam performance has received considerable attention. In this paper, we conduct a...

The conversion of solar energy is proposed by using light source injecting into a length of fiber laser. Hybrid amplifiers with different gain bandwidths are indensible for long haul wavelength multiplexed optical communication systems in C-band and L-band. In this paper, we proposed that light...
