La Nina

 During the cold phase of ENSO there being cold sea surface temperature exist in vicinity of Peru formed by the intensification of Walker cell circulation due to Easterlies along the equatorial Pacific that is linked to female younger sister to the El Nino,called as La Nina.As Southern oscillation index is negative in case of El Nino,the SOI remains positive for La Nina with air pressure being higher at Tahiti than Port Darwin. La Nina is strengthening of Enso neutral phase with a descending limb at Eastern Pacific owing to high pressure conditions along south American west coast and ascending limb at western Pacific near East coast of Australia due to low pressure in prevailing warmer water.La Nina being associated with a negative Indian ocean dipole in relation to native surroundings. 

El Nino

The northern Peru is used to Humboldt cold current flowing farther away from the south.However, during occasional year completion duration,sea surface temperature increases expectionally being known as El Nino.Prof Gilbert Walker calibrated air pressure difference between Tahiti and Darwin.If Tahiti at higher temperature than Darwin,the southern oscillation index is believed to be positive and otherwise negative conveying east west variational oscillation.The El Nino Southern oscillation neutral phase,walker circulation consisting of Western Pacific (East Coast of Australia) rising warm limb owing to low atmospheric pressure conditions whereas the Eastern Pacific ( South American Western Coast ) comprises of high atmospheric pressure,marked by descending cool limb.The warm water flows towards Western Pacific owing to Easterlies blowing through the Andes enhances thermocline depth that elevates Sea surface height relatively higher than Eastern Pacific. During Warm phase,this Walker circ

  Although there should be a high correlation between vote percentage and seat number, sometimes votes are lost due to caste and community polarization. By not voting in the name of development, the public often develops a confused mindset based on verbal communication based on mutual affection of local background. They elect their representatives according to the same bias. In a successful democracy, there should definitely be a difference in the election decision-making ideologies of the Village Chief, MLA and MP.  Even Pure water couldn't have been provided to all.Water purity of the yojna implemented ought to be checked.The canal lining is not at par.The canal vicinity areas are liable to water sanitation effects considering Prof Darcy's percolation underground water flow regimes.The canal lining unattended lead to water inundation as throughout water infiltrates inside therefore the acqifer recharge capacity being already saturated therefore even a meager rainfall creates

Landforms resembling a particular climate being the morphoclimatic regions propounded by Prof Jean Tricart and Prof Andre Cailleux based on paleoclimatic factors having subdivisions associated with interrelations among various principles such as geomorphology as well as biogeography.Prof C A Cotton in 1942 identifies six morphoclimatic regions;1)Normal-Under Davisian sense humid temperate landforms 2) Glacial-Following Davisian glacial,however excluding Periglacial 3)Humid -Processes & forms considered by Prof Sapper & Prof Friese having transitional Normal and Savanna regions characteristics as tropical virtue 4)Arid-Associated with topographical Bajada having Pediment extension linked with replacement of desert mountains through low domes as well as slope retreat,encompassing occasional fluvial sheet & stream flood.5)Semi-Arid- Transitional consisting of slopes breakings less abrupt,Pediment slopes being steeper having early erosional stage of normal cycle associated with

Morphogenetic regions

Image
  Morphogenetic regions consisting of distinctive climatic geomorphic processes having morphoclimatic equilibrium based on agents of denudation through precipitation and temperature variability regimes.Prof Julius Budel in 1945 propounded the notion certifying that a particular topography being the resultant of certain climatic characteristics.Prof Budel published the system of climatic geomorphology (Das system der klimatischen geomorphologie) and further in his Klima geomorphologie considered different weathering,erosive,depositional processes of aggradation & degradation along with vegetative cover encompassing soil forming processes.Instead of relying over the climatic data for morphogenetic delineation insisted on diverse differential relief interpretation through ecological factors for comparison.Prof Budel considered inherited landforms being the relicts such as mid latitudinal landforms, overlooking the metamorphic and stratigraphic changes occurring through the ages depend

Periglacial

Image
Prof Walery Von Lozinsky in 1909 propounded Periglacial term in relation to carpathian perpheral region descriptions.Morphogenetic region of Prof Budel contrasted formal region based on climatic variability prevailing in surroundings.Perennial frozen Permafrost wider durational extent landscape freeze thaw coverings separated by Taliks with the overlying periglacial region in continuous,discontinuous or sporadic permafrost surfaces. Prof L C Peltier proposed periglacial cycle having active congelifraction focussing on weathering via solifluction comprising viscous flow of sediment material of solifluction slope,sheet,lobe and stripe.The frost action of shattering through mechanical disintegration in form of wedging & splitting with heaving encompassing soil regolith displacement along with segregated ground ice evolvement in frost weathering congelifraction processes of mounds like palsas and hilly pingos development.Frost push with thermal contraction of sediments via cracking and
