Impact of climatic change on biosphere /slideshow/impact-of-climatic-change-on-biosphere/75547664 impactofclimaticchangeonbiosphere-170430181235
Climate like any other physical phenomena it is dynamic and not static. In every part of the world one year, one decade or one century is different than the other. The change does not only have academic important but its effects in all the forms of life. Plants, animals, human beings change with changes of climate. In general, all living species thrive under definite and limit conditions and any great deviation from that will leads to destruction and death of the species. Ecology: Scientific study of interactions between organisms and their environments which includes Biotic Factors: (Living organisms) , Abiotic Factors: (Nonliving physical and chemical conditions of an environment). What are the levels of the Ecology? Ecology has Five Levels. Individual organism: Single organism in an environment Populations: Group of individual organisms of same species living in the same area Communities: All of the organisms that inhabit a particular area make up a community, like coral reef and other organisms live around in the reef Ecosystems: An ecosystem includes both the biotic and abiotic factors of an area Biosphere: Sum of all of Earth's ecosystems, it is an envelope of air, land, and water supporting all living things on Earth. It consists of both the atmosphere and ocean. Ecologists investigate global issues in the biosphere, including climate change and its effect on living things The effects have been most dramatic at high latitudes, where multiple processes contribute to decreased surface reflectivity Changes in temperature are causing species to shift their natural ranges; however, those are unable to move in line with changing temperatures are being put at risk. ]]>

Ocean current /slideshow/ocean-current-75547534/75547534 oceancurrent-170430180458
Oceans are a vast body of salt water that covers almost three to fourths of the earth's surface. Seas are smaller, found on the margins of the ocean and are partially enclosed by land. Seawater: High density, high heat capacity, colder, salty and slightly compressible (its volume decreases under pressure), thus its density increases with pressure. Why is Ocean Circulation Important? •Similar to winds in the atmosphere, they transfer significant amounts of heat from equatorial areas to the poles and thus play important roles in determining the climates of coastal regions. •The ocean circulation pattern exchanges water of varying characteristics, such as temperature and salinity •ocean currents and atmospheric circulation influence one another. •in addition, they transport nutrients and organisms ]]>

Gold /slideshow/gold-75050943/75050943 gold-170415170052
Gold is a transitional metal. In its purest form have reddish yellow color, soft, malleable, and ductile metal. Atomic number :  79 Atomic mass :  196.9 u Density : 19.32 g/cm3 Melting point :  1,064 °C Boiling point :  2,700 °C Founded in different form associated with different rock type in different tectonic setting. Discovered from earlier time and used for multi purposes. Formation of gold The saying among prospectors that "gold is where you find it" suggests its occurrence is unpredictable, but there is some certain geological environments for the formation.  Because gold is very stable over a range of conditions, it is very widespread in the earth’s crust. Gold dissolved in warm to hot salty water, the fluids are generated in huge volumes deep in the Earth’s crust as water-bearing minerals dehydrate during metamorphism. Any gold present in the rocks being heated and squeezed is sweated out and goes into solution as complex ions. In this form, dissolved gold, along with other elements such as silicon, iron and sulphur, migrates wherever fractures in the rocks allow the fluids to pass. The direction is generally upwards, to cooler regions at lower pressures nearer the Earth’s surface. Gold eventually becomes insoluble and begins to crystallize, most often enveloped by quartz. The association of gold and quartz vein forms one of the most common types of "primary gold deposits". India In India, gold mineralization of economic importance is mainly restricted to Archean greenstone terranes of the Dharwar Craton (DC). The eastern block of the DC has a high favorability for hosting major gold deposits such as Kolar, Hutti, and Ramagiri, whereas the western block hosts only a few smaller deposits such as Gadag, Ajjahanahalli, and Kempinkote. Gold also discoverrd by GSI in the Singbhum Craton, Aravalli Craton, Bastar Craton and Southern Granulite Terrain (SGT). India is the second-largest consumer of gold after China. India currently holds about 558 tones of gold, representing 6.6% of its reserves, (World Gold Council, October 2016). Kolar Gold Field, Hutti Gold Field and Ramgiri Gold Field are the most important gold fields. Gold Demand and Use The largest source of demand is the jewelry industry Gold’s workability, unique beauty, and universal appeal make this rare precious metal the favorite of jewelers all over the world. Besides jewelry, gold has many applications in a variety of industries including aerospace, medicine, dentistry, and electronics for the manufacture of computers, telephones, televisions... The third source of gold demand is governments and central banks that buy gold to increase their official reserves. Private investors there are private investors. Depending upon market circumstances, the investment component of demand can vary substantially from year to year. ]]>

In its purest form have reddish yellow color, soft, malleable, and ductile metal. Atomic number :  79 Atomic mass :  196.9 u Density : 19.32 g/cm3 Melting point :  1,064 °C Boiling point :  2,700 °C Founded in different form associated with different rock type in different tectonic setting. Discovered from earlier time and used for multi purposes. Formation of gold The saying among prospectors that "gold is where you find it" suggests its occurrence is unpredictable, but there is some certain geological environments for the formation.  Because gold is very stable over a range of conditions, it is very widespread in the earth’s crust. Gold dissolved in warm to hot salty water, the fluids are generated in huge volumes deep in the Earth’s crust as water-bearing minerals dehydrate during metamorphism. Any gold present in the rocks being heated and squeezed is sweated out and goes into solution as complex ions. In this form, dissolved gold, along with other elements such as silicon, iron and sulphur, migrates wherever fractures in the rocks allow the fluids to pass. The direction is generally upwards, to cooler regions at lower pressures nearer the Earth’s surface. Gold eventually becomes insoluble and begins to crystallize, most often enveloped by quartz. The association of gold and quartz vein forms one of the most common types of "primary gold deposits". India In India, gold mineralization of economic importance is mainly restricted to Archean greenstone terranes of the Dharwar Craton (DC). The eastern block of the DC has a high favorability for hosting major gold deposits such as Kolar, Hutti, and Ramagiri, whereas the western block hosts only a few smaller deposits such as Gadag, Ajjahanahalli, and Kempinkote. Gold also discoverrd by GSI in the Singbhum Craton, Aravalli Craton, Bastar Craton and Southern Granulite Terrain (SGT). India is the second-largest consumer of gold after China. India currently holds about 558 tones of gold, representing 6.6% of its reserves, (World Gold Council, October 2016).

Principles of stratigraphy /slideshow/principles-of-stratigraphy-70556168/70556168 principlesofstratigraphy-161230175547
Introduction Stratigraphy is the study of strata (sedimentary layers) in the Earth's crust, it is the relationship between rocks and time. Stratigrapher are concerned with the observation, description and interpretation of direct and tangible evidence in rocks to determine the history of the Earth. The combination of sedimentology and stratigraphy allows us to build up pictures of the Earth’s surface at different times in different places and relate them to each other through the relative ages of rocks A more modern way of stating the same principle is that the laws of nature (laws of chemistry and physics) that have operated in the same way since the beginning of time. And thus if we understand the physical and chemical principles by which nature operates, we can assume that nature operated the same way in the past. Basic principles of stratigraphy Principle of Uniformitarianism Principle of Lateral Horizontality Principle of  Superposition Principle of Cross-cutting Relations Principle of Inclusions Principle of Chilled Margins Correlation ]]>

Ultra high temperature metamorphism /slideshow/ultra-high-temperature-metamorphism/70556012 ultrahightemperaturemetamorphism-161230174739
The southern Indian granulite terrane is known for granulite - facies rocks which is formed during the ‘Pan-African orogeny. The region is composed of Neoproterozoic to Cambrian crustal blocks, dissected by large-scale shear zones (Palghat-Cauvery and Achankovil). The Palghat-Cauvery Shear Zone System (PCSZ), separates the terrane into two parts, Archean Dharwar Craton in the north and the Neoproterozoic Madurai Block in the south. The southern margin of this block is defined by the Achankovil Shear Zone. Geology of the study area The Achankovil Shear Zone (ACSZ) is major lineament of 8-10 km width and >100 km length. The rocks in the zone display a prominent NW-SE trending foliation with steep dips to southwest. Estimation of pressure and temperature (P-T) of this lithology was first carried out by Santosh (1987) based on conventional geothermometers and mineral equilibrium, that gave 700-800◦ C at 5.5-7.0 kbar. Later study done by Nandakumar and Harley (2000) which is slightly higher 925 ± 20◦ C at 6.5-7.0 kbar . 3.1. Grt- Opx- Crd Gneiss The Grt-Opx-Crd gneiss is a coarse-grained, granulite-facies rock with a probable pelitic protolith. The mineralogy of a representative sample (KR19-5G1) is plagioclase (30-40%), ortho-pyroxene (20-30%), garnet (10-20%), K-feldspar (10-20%), quartz (5-10%), and cordierite (2-5%) with accessory of biotite, spinel, and sillimanite (Fig. 2a). Garnet is very coarse-grained (3-6 mm) ,subidioblastic, and contains numerous fine-grained inclusions of sillimanite (0.05-0.2 mm), biotite (0.05-0.4 mm), spinel (0.05-0.1 mm), and quartz (0.05-0.1 mm). The most significant feature of this rock is the direct contact relation of fine grained spinel and quartz (Spl + Qtz), which occur only as inclusions in garnet. Spl + Qtz association has been regarded as one of the indicators for decompression at UHT conditions. This is the first finding of such an assemblage from the ACSZ. ]]>

Reservoir modeling and Structural studies… etc. Types of Well Logging Logs can be classified into several types under different category Permeability and lithology Logs Gamma Ray log Self Potential [SP] log Caliber log Porosity Logs Density log Sonic log Neutron log Electrical Logs Resistivity Log For contact : omerupto3@gmail.com

Komattite Named after the Komati River in South Africa. first described by Morris and Richard (twins) for ultramafic units in the Barberton Greenstone belt of South Africa. Mostly of komatiite are Archean age distributed in the Archaean shield areas. Also a few are Proterozoic and Phanerozoic. In all ages komatiites are highly magnesium. Mostly a volcanic rock; occasionally intrusive. Mafic rocks were identified as extrusive because of their volcanic textures and structures, and they seem to have been accepted as a normal component of Archean volcanic successions, Abitibi in Canada. The ultramafic rocks were interpreted as intrusive which are founded as sills and dykes, Barberton in South Africa. Spinifex texture-typical of Komatiites: ]]>
