relationship between hydrology and geomorphology

-
The landscape and the terrain chracterises,besies geology,are closely related to occurence,availability,quality and utilization of the usable water for diferent puroses by man from different ouces,eg.:- surface wtare,ground water etc.there is direct relationship betwen limestone reas also helps in digging of dug wells.If the limestons have enough porosity and are capped by sand stones layers,there is every posibilty for rich ground water reserves and the water is also naurally filtered while passing through the sand stone beds and hence this groundwater will be free from pollutants.



Limestone areas are'nt suitable for dam or reservoir construction because it requires a lot of expensive engineering work.The geomorphological history of the glaciated landscape ,characterizes of different types of glacial deposits and landform characteristics help in searching and determining the interglacial valleys under the surficial ground material provide large and rich ground water reserves.This situation of buried periglacial valleys may be known only through geomorphological study of the concerned area ie.,denuation chronology and geomorphologic history of the concerned area.

In conclusion it can be stated that geomorphology and hydrology are so interdependent and so intricately interrelated that it would be a rime to consider any one of the two separate from other or supirior to one another.

Distinguish between barotropic & baroclinic conditions of the atmosphere

-
An air mass which is defined as a large body of air whose physical properties especially temperature, moisture & lapse rate are more or less uniform horizontally for hundreds of kilometers.                             barotropic condition of atmosphere is theoretically ideal condition where surfaces of constant pressure are not intersected by isostereic(constant density) surfaces, so that in a vertical cross-section isobars(imaginary lines joining places of equal atmospheric pressure) & isotherms appear parallel i.e,zero baroclinicity.It is a rare phenomenon & is found in case of frontogenesis,separated by baroclinic front zone.          Baroclinic condition of atmosphere is seen in comparatively narrow zones (perhaps 1000Km. in width) of thermal discontinuity also known as fronts in air mass property. They are belts of sharp meteorological gradient recognized as distinct factors in the origin of mid-latitude disturbances. The instability is associated with rising wa

Airtel DTH: Error B001/Error B003 and Why I left Airtel possibly for Better

-

Why did I decided to Leave?  It has been 2 weeks since I complained about B001 error and Airtel in between replaced 2 set top boxes but problem remained. I have replaced everything as per "diagnosis" of airtel DTH technician but no solution could be reached. Currently, my balance has been deducted from INR200 to INR 10. There are discrepancies with the bills issued against parts replacements conducted during this period. It must be stressed here that I as a customer felt cheated, neglected, harassed by Airtel +Service Partner and I was a 7-8 years+ customer. We never saw that set top box seals were broken in front of our eyes for both the replacements by technicians. My comparison chart for new service provider

Why do isotherms shift north & south from season to season?

-
An isotherm is an imaginary line drawn on a weather chart or map to join places of equal temperature. Temperature varies from season -as there is high temperature during summer & low temperature during winter with minor changes during transitionary seasons. We know that temperature is proportional to atmospheric pressure & inversely proportional to density.                                                        A.P.=K*D*T                                                           T=A.P*1/D where,A.P.=atmospheric pressure;K=constant;D=density;T=temperature      During the summer season in either of the hemisphere's the sun is vertically overhead of the tropic of cancer/capricorn.The land which has a low specific heat capacity & also being a bad conductor of heat re-radiates the heat to the atmosphere resulting in the spreading of molecules of atmospheric gases due to the heat energy. As molecules spread over a wide region it's pressure on the land becomes l
