GEOGRAPHY OF INDIA
India has significant geographical diversity due to its large size and location in South Asia. It spans a wide range of landscapes from the Himalayan mountains in the north to the Thar Desert in the west. Major rivers like the Ganges and Indus flow from the Himalayas across fertile plains, influencing settlement patterns and supporting agriculture. India experiences distinct seasonal changes including a summer monsoon season that is crucial for crop growth. This diversity of terrain and climate has endowed India with valuable natural resources but also environmental challenges like floods and droughts.

Plains of India
There are two main types of plains in India: the Northern Plains and the Coastal Plains. The Northern Plains, also known as the Indo-Gangetic Plains, stretch from Punjab to Assam. They are made up of very fertile alluvial soil and contain three major river systems: the Ganga, Brahmaputra, and Satluj. The Coastal Plains are along India's western and eastern coasts. The Western Coastal Plains run along the Arabian Sea from Gujarat to Kanyakumari, containing gulfs and flat lands rich in oil. The Eastern Coastal Plains contain the fertile Coromandel Coast between the Krishna and Kaveri rivers, forming large river deltas.
NORTHERN PLAINS
The northern plain of India has been formed by the deposition of alluvial soil over millions of years by the Indus, Ganga, and Brahmaputra river systems along with their tributaries. It spreads over an area of 7 lakh square km and is densely populated. The rivers deposit silt in their lower courses, forming distributaries and riverine islands. The northern plain is divided into the Punjab plain in the west formed by the Indus and its tributaries, the Ganga plain in the center, and the Brahmaputra plain in the east. The land contains diverse relief features like bhabar, terai, bhangar, and khadar soils deposited in belts parallel to
ppt on plains
This document defines plains and describes the different types of plains. There are three main types of plains: structural plains, which are formed by endogenic forces raising or lowering the Earth's surface; erosional plains, which were originally rugged areas that were leveled by agents of erosion like rivers, wind, waves, and glaciers; and depositional plains, which are formed by external agents like running water, wind, glaciers, and sea waves carrying rock materials from hills and depositing them in depressions. The document provides examples of the different agents that can cause erosion and deposition in the formation of each type of plain.

Soil is formed by weathering of rocks under different climates and deposited by denudation agents. The main types of soil in India are alluvial soil found in river plains, black soil suited for cotton in central India, red soil covering much of the Deccan plateau, laterite soil in high rainfall areas, desert soil in arid northwest India, and mountain soil rich in nutrients. Soil erosion due to factors like deforestation, overgrazing, and unscientific farming methods needs to be prevented through conservation methods like contour ploughing, bunds, terracing, afforestation, and controlled grazing/irrigation.INDIA - SIZE AND LOCATION

India size and location
This document provides information about India's location and geography. It discusses India's location in relation to latitude and longitude lines. It notes that India's total land area is 3.28 million square km, accounting for about 2.4% of the world's total land area. The document also outlines India's land and coastal boundaries, mentioning it shares borders with Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, and Bangladesh. It provides context on India's strategic central location between East and West Asia.
The northern plains ppt
The northern plain of India is formed by the interplay of three major rivers - the Ganga, Indus, and Brahmaputra. During the Tertiary period, a sea called Tethys extended north and west. Due to the movement of tectonic plates, the Indian plate underthrust the Eurasian plate, causing folding of marine sediments from compressive forces. This created the Himalayas and left the northern plain as a foredeep filled with sediments eroded from the mountains. The three dominant rivers continue depositing alluvial soil, making the plain one of the most fertile regions and important agricultural areas in India.

It also has a private workshop space upstairs that schools can use. The aim of the trip is to provide stimulus for science, geography, philosophy, and art lessons through a workshop at the museum about global warming and the future, where students will create their own comic strips. The workshop focuses on teaching students how to construct comics and reflect on climate change through an example graphic novel. A professional engineer will guide the session. [END SUMMARY]
The Paradox of Contemporary India
India is a nation of great contrasts, with both wealth and extreme poverty existing side by side. While some parts of India have experienced rapid economic growth and a new middle class has emerged, much of the population still lives in dire poverty without access to basic necessities. Over half of India's population lives below the poverty line, and millions of children suffer from malnutrition and lack of healthcare or access to education. The disparities between the wealthy elite and most Indians highlight the paradox of modern India.
Haiti earthquake yr7
The 2010 Haiti earthquake that killed over 200,000 people was caused by movement along the boundary between the Caribbean and North American tectonic plates. Haiti sits along a conservative plate boundary where the plates move about 20 mm per year, building pressure until an earthquake occurs. A 7 magnitude earthquake struck just 15 km from the capital Port-au-Prince on January 12, 2010. The shallow depth of 13 km exacerbated the damage. Over 1.5 million people were left homeless as much of Port-au-Prince was destroyed, including important buildings and infrastructure. The poor conditions in Haiti made providing relief extremely difficult in the aftermath.
Zulu
The Zulu tribe originated in South Africa and are known for their brightly colored beads and baskets. They have a variety of traditional foods like sour milk, beer, and maize porridge. Zulu warriors dress distinctively, while British teenagers dress more casually. Zulu houses are made from simple materials like straw and dung, and are positioned based on the occupants' work, with farmers living near fields and workers near jobsites. The tribe was placed under British rule in the 1800s but regained independence after a war in 1906.
Tuareg
The Tuareg people number around 5.2 million living primarily in Niger, Mali, Algeria, Burkina Faso, and Libya. They are traditionally nomadic herders who wear distinctive blue or black veils and live in tents. The Tuareg society was historically divided between pastoralists and farmers, and they have resisted full adoption of Islam while integrating some rituals and holidays. Their staple foods include milk, porridge, bread, and cheeses from goats.
Dinka
The Dinka tribe originated from southern Sudan but many have migrated elsewhere due to civil war. They traditionally wore little clothing, with men going naked and women wearing goatskin skirts. The Dinka population is over 1 million and they speak the Dinka language, though some have relocated to places like Khartoum with different cultures.

The Fulani Tribe is an ethnic group spread across several West African countries including Guinea, Mali, The Gambia, and Nigeria. They originated in the 1st century AD and are primarily known as nomadic herders, though many now live in villages. Traditionally, the Fulani wear colorful, embroidered robes and hats. Women decorate themselves with jewelry. Their staple foods are millet, milk, and meat from their cattle herds, which are a sign of wealth. They live in dome-shaped houses during dry seasons and mat-covered houses during wet seasons.
Dinka
The Dinka tribe inhabits the Bahr el Ghazal region of South Sudan and numbers around 1.5 million people, making up 10% of Sudan's population. They mainly live in rural areas and have a long history involving wars with other tribes. The Dinka have a monotheistic religion centered around Nhialic as the creator and source of life and death, performing rituals for events like births, deaths, and times of crisis. Their traditional diet consists of milk, meat, fish, beans, tomatoes, and rice.
Maasai
The Maasai live in East Africa and are known as herders and warriors. They rely on cattle for their livelihood, drinking milk and eating meat, though now also grow some crops. Maasai society is organized into male age groups that perform initiations and take on roles. They believe in the god Ngai, who created all and sent cattle to the Maasai via the wild fig tree. The Maasai live in traditional huts and villages, believe Ngai entrusted cattle to them, measure wealth by cattle, do rainmaking rituals during drought, wear distinctive hairstyles, and drink cows' blood for strength.

The poem should convey what was seen, felt, and heard, and what happened to friends and family through structured stanzas telling the story.
India Location And History
The document summarizes the history of India and the Indian subcontinent. It discusses how India was ruled by many empires due to its strategic location and natural resources. In 1947, British India was partitioned into the Dominion of Pakistan and the Union of India. The partition split the provinces of Punjab and Bengal along religious lines, dividing the regions between predominantly Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan. India has since become the second most populous country and has undergone rapid economic changes.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
