ANALYSIS OF EARTHQUAKE IN THE INDIA AND ITS EFFECT
This seminar report summarizes major earthquakes that have impacted India and their effects. It discusses the causes and types of earthquakes, and how they are measured and classified. It then analyzes several destructive earthquakes in India's history from 1819 to 1997, including the Cutch earthquake, Assam earthquake, Bihar-Nepal earthquake, Koyna earthquake, Uttarkashi earthquake, and Killar (Latur) earthquake. It also outlines the response and relief efforts of the Indian government following damaging quakes. Finally, it briefly predicts future earthquake risks in India.
Earthquakes
This document provides an overview of earthquakes. It begins with a brief history of earthquake studies from ancient times through modern developments in seismology. Key concepts introduced include the location of the hypocenter and epicenter, and the different types of seismic waves generated by earthquakes. The document then discusses the causes of earthquakes in relation to plate tectonics and fault ruptures. Different scales for measuring the intensity and magnitude of earthquakes are presented, including the Mercalli and Richter scales. Locations of historic destructive quakes are also highlighted.
GEOGRAPHY IGCSE: EARTHQUAKES
1. An earthquake occurs when built-up tension along fault lines in the Earth's crust is suddenly released, causing the ground to shake.
2. The effects of an earthquake depend on several factors, including its magnitude on the Richter scale, distance from the epicenter, and the level of development in the affected area.
3. The 1995 Kobe earthquake in Japan caused over 30,000 injuries, left over 300,000 homeless as buildings collapsed, and led to long-term economic and social impacts as the city was rebuilt.
ENDOGENOUS HAZARDS EARTHQUAKES .docx
1) Earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of built-up strain energy along fault lines within the earth's crust due to the movement of tectonic plates.
2) India is vulnerable to earthquakes as it lies on the Alpine-Himalayan seismic belt, where the Indian plate is thrusting under the Eurasian plate.
3) Major earthquakes that have struck India include the 1950 Assam earthquake (magnitude 8.5), the 2001 Bhuj earthquake in Gujarat (magnitude 6.9), and the 2005 Kashmir earthquake (magnitude 7.6 impacting India).
Earthquakes
An earthquake is caused by the release of built-up pressure within the Earth's crust along fault lines. The focus is where the pressure is released within the crust, and the epicenter is the point on the surface directly above the focus. Earthquakes are measured on the Richter scale using seismometers, which detect the different types of waves that propagate during an earthquake: P-waves, S-waves, and surface waves. The effects of earthquakes can be primary, occurring directly from ground shaking, or secondary, resulting from primary effects like tsunamis or fires.
Earthquakes
This document discusses earthquakes, including what causes them, different types, measurement scales, effects, and safety tips. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates and can range from unnoticeable to extremely powerful. There are three main types - tectonic, volcanic, and explosions. They are measured on the Richter scale and can damage buildings/infrastructure, trigger landslides/tsunamis, and lead to liquefaction. Safety tips during an earthquake include dropping, covering, and holding on until shaking stops. Earthquake engineering aims to make structures more resistant to seismic activity.
powerpoint presentaion
Earthquakes are caused by the release of stored energy in the earth's interior. The point of origin is called the focus, and the point directly above on the surface is the epicenter. Energy from the focus propagates as seismic waves that cause tremors and destruction. The Richter scale is used to measure an earthquake's magnitude based on the intensity of shaking and damage. Primary and secondary body waves travel through the earth's interior at different speeds depending on the material's density, while surface waves cause surface destruction as they travel along the earth's surface.
Earthquake: A Tragedy to life and property
An earthquake is the shaking of the Earth's surface caused by a sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere. This social science project discusses earthquakes, including what they are, their causes, effects, and protection against them. Some key points made are that earthquakes result from the movement of tectonic plates and built-up pressure being released. Their effects include ground shaking, ground ruptures, landslides, tsunamis, and fires. Protection involves earthquake-resistant building construction and safety precautions during shaking. Some of the deadliest earthquakes mentioned caused thousands of deaths, such as in Nepal in 2015 and Japan in 2011.

Earthquake project
The document provides information about earthquakes, including:
1) What causes earthquakes including the buildup and sudden release of energy within rocks, often along fault lines as tectonic plates move.
2) Different types of seismic waves - P, S, and surface waves - are produced and how they travel through the Earth.
3) Major earthquake zones exist along plate boundaries like the Circum-Pacific belt and Alpide belt, and earthquakes are measured on the Richter scale from small to great quakes over magnitude 8.
Focus and epicenter
The focus of an earthquake is the point where the rocks start to fracture and is the origin of the earthquake. The epicenter is the point directly above the focus on the Earth's surface. Earthquake waves travel outward in all directions from the focus. Shallow earthquakes between 0-40 miles deep are more common and dangerous than deep earthquakes over 180 miles below the surface, as shallow quakes release more energy and plates moving together often cause them.
SEISMIC ZONES OF INDIA
Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates. India experiences frequent earthquakes due to its location at the collision point of the Indian and Eurasian plates. India is divided into 4 seismic zones based on expected earthquake intensity. Zone 5 experiences the strongest quakes above MSK intensity IX while Zone 2 experiences the weakest quakes of MSK intensity VI or less. The seismic zoning map is used for earthquake-resistant construction.

The seismic zoning map is used for earthquake-resistant construction.
Causes, Effects and Precautions against Earthquake
1. Earthquakes are caused by the movement of tectonic plates deep below the Earth's surface. As the plates shift and grind against each other, they release energy in the form of seismic waves.
2. Major earthquakes can cause widespread damage to infrastructure like buildings, bridges and dams, resulting in loss of life and property. They can also trigger secondary hazards such as landslides, tsunamis and fires.
3. Pakistan is prone to earthquakes, with major fault lines running along its western border. Some of the deadliest quakes in the country's history include the 2005 Kashmir earthquake that killed over 80,000 people and the 2013 Balochistan earthquake that killed 825.

ppt on Earthquakes
An earthquake is caused by the sudden release of built-up energy along fault lines in the earth's crust. The Richter scale is used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes on a logarithmic scale, where each whole number increase corresponds to a tenfold increase in measured amplitude. The impact of an earthquake is characterized by its intensity of shaking and the location of its epicenter, where it originates underground. Common earthquake damage includes collapsed structures, fires, landslides, and tsunamis. Over 59% of India's land area faces moderate to severe seismic hazard, especially along the Himalayan belt where great quakes over 8.0 magnitude can occur.

earthquake.pptx
An earthquake occurs when two blocks of the earth suddenly slip past one another at a fault line. The location below the surface where the earthquake starts is the focus, and the location above it on the surface is the epicenter. Earthquakes are measured by both magnitude, which measures the energy released, and intensity, which measures the effects on people and structures. Earthquakes are caused by the slow movement of tectonic plates, and most occur at plate boundaries along faults. The damage caused by an earthquake depends on factors like its strength, population density of the affected area, building quality, and secondary hazards like landslides or tsunamis.

1) The recent Nepal earthquake is a reminder that many parts of South Asia are vulnerable to natural disasters like earthquakes due to a lack of preparedness by governments and societies.
2) While earthquakes themselves are natural, their impacts are determined by social factors like inadequate building regulations, unprepared rescue systems, and poor governance that fails to disseminate warnings.
3) Lessons from past disasters show that developing countries suffer far higher death tolls than developed nations from similar natural events, due to differences in preparedness and social arrangements rather than the disasters themselves.
Endogenous disasters earth quakes
An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is is the shaking of the surface of the Earth, resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes can range in size from those that are so weak that they cannot be felt to those violent enough to the people around and destroy whole cities.
earthquake
Earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of energy in the earth's crust that generates seismic waves. The location within the earth where rupture first occurs is known as the focus or hypocenter, while the point on the surface directly above is called the epicenter. Different types of seismic waves travel through the earth's interior or along its surface, causing shaking and damage. By measuring the arrival times of these waves at multiple seismograph stations, scientists can determine the epicenter location. Earthquakes are measured on the Richter scale by magnitude or the Mercalli scale by observed intensity. India experiences frequent earthquakes and is divided into different seismic zones based on risk levels. Major quakes have caused widespread destruction and loss of life in
Earthquakes.pptx
Earthquakes are caused by tectonic movements within the Earth that release stress and cause seismic waves. There are three main belts where earthquakes commonly occur - the Circum-Pacific belt, Mid-Atlantic belt, and Mid-Continental belt. Earthquakes can cause damage through ground shaking, liquefaction, landslides, and tsunamis. Their intensity is measured using the Modified Mercalli scale while their magnitude is measured using the Richter scale. Regions are classified into seismic zones based on their likelihood of experiencing damaging earthquakes.
Eq and tsunamis
- An earthquake is a vibration in the earth's crust caused by the sudden release of stored energy in rocks along fault lines.
- Factors like population density, level of preparedness, distance from the epicenter, time of occurrence, and soil type determine the extent of damage from an earthquake in addition to its magnitude.
- Earthquakes can cause hazards like disruption of services, destruction of property, landslides, destruction of infrastructure, loss of life, fires, and tsunamis.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

ENVIRONMENT~ Renewable Energy Sources and their future prospects.
This presentation is for us to know that how our Environment need Attention for protection of our natural resources which are depleted day by day that's why we need to take time and shift our attention to renewable energy sources instead of non-renewable sources which are better and Eco-friendly for our environment. these renewable energy sources are so helpful for our planet and for every living organism which depends on environment.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

EARTHQUAKE.pdf
- 1. EARTHQUAKE A STUDY ON DELHI
- 2. TEMBLOR? what determine intensity of earthquake in a particular area? SEISMIC ACTIVITES
- 3. HOW IT HAPPENS? Sudden Tectonic movements in earth crust Tectonic plates slides over one another. Releasing of shock waves As there is a movement in plates there is stress built up cause of orogeny
- 4. MAGNITUDE EARTHQUAKE EFFECTS ESTIMATED NUMBER EACH YEAR 2.5 or less Usually not felt, but can be recorded by seismograph. Millions 2.5 to 5.4 Often felt, but only causes minor damage. 5,00,000 5.5 to 6.0 Slight damage to buildings and other structures. 350 6.1 to 6.9 May cause a lot of damage in very populated areas. 100 7.0 to 7.9 Major earthquake. Serious damage. Oct-15 8.0 or greater Great earthquake. Can totally destroy communities near the epicenter. One every year or two
- 5. EARTHQUAKE ZONES Zone II (low intensity zone) Zone III (moderate intensity zone) Zone IV (severe intensity zone) Zone V (very severe intensity zone) Approximately, 11% of the country falls in zone V, ~18% in zone IV, ~ 30% in zone III and the remaining in zone II. A total of ~59% of the landmass of India (covering all states of India) is prone to earthquakes of different intensities.
- 6. WHY DELHI? The terrain of Delhi is flat in general except for the north- northeast (NNE)-south-southwest (SSW) trending ridge. Delhi under the Sesimic Zone 4 Urbanization in Delhi, with high density of population.
- 7. RESEARCH METHOD & REFERENCES For any research to be informative it is essential to have reliable information from reliable sources ,So we will be going through various journals and other books to get background information. As a primary source of data we will be collecting information from the public through a form which has questionnarie. We collect some important data through a offline survey, we primarily focus on ground level situations and their loopholes. We are also planning to interact with few government officials to know their opinions and suggestions on the current situation.
