Part 1b

littoral plants at tropical and subtropical latitudes (since they need lot of sunlight to filter through their roots)

evergreen

Viviparity Mode of Reproduction(seeds germinate on tree itself)

go inside the soil or shoot up the water

Pnuemataphores(blind roots) breathing roots to overcome Respiration Problem

Stilt Roots(emerging form the main trunk)

Rhizophora Abicennia Brugeeria Sonneritia Nypa

Yes, the deposits collect under Roots

Sunderbans,Bhitarkanika (Odisha)

Only Hard Corals

Symbiotic Relationship btw Zooxanthalae (Algae) & Coral (Animals)

Zooxanthalae

Polyps(Corals)-they leave their skeleton after dying

Hermatypic

Tropical,Subtropical,Cold Water

Cold Water Reefs

Atoll Barrier

Fringing Atoll Barrier (Sea grass and mangroves also found there(

Andaman Lakshadweep Gulf of Mannar(Sri Lanka) Gulf of Kachch ( Gujrat)

Corals

Poor Nutrient Waters(but they recycle it)

Coral Reefs

densities of zooxanthalae decrease photosynthetic pigment within zooxanthalae decreases

Fresh water dilution

Combustion of SOLID materials

Electrostatic Precipitator

Arresters & Scrubbers

converts Nitrogen Oxide to Nitrogen (reduces the potential hazard of NOx)

CPCB (to ascertain compliant of NAAQS - National Ambient Air Quality Standards)

12

8

Moefcc

Short Wave Radiations emitted from Concrete Surface Ground Water can't flow down through Concrete Tall Buildings also block air

ZSI

decreases Dissolved Oxygen since decomposition increases

amt of dissolved 0xyzen needed by bacteria in decomposing the organicatter present in water

milligms of 02 per lt. of water

it indicates low DO content in water

limited to Biodegradable Matter (so not good for calculating pollution)

measure of O2 equivalent of the requirement of oxidation of total Organic Matter(both Biodegradable and non biodegradable matter)

good for calculating Pollution

Mercury

Lead

Cadmium (Cadbury)

Excess Nitrate

Fluroide

Arsenic

absorbing toxic materials

Treating Oil Spills

regulates Noise Pollution

State Pollution Control Board(under Air Act)

EPA

not less than 100 m around hospitals, educational institutions etc.

50 db day,40 db night

dug up pits

dug up pits but prevents leaching (lined with impermeable materials like plastic /clay)

burning in the absence of Oxygen

Moefcc , finance by World Bank

Rise or fall in temp

decreases Dissolved Oxygen

use of mircro organisms to degrade the environmental contaminants into less toxic forms

plants, roots, fungi

bacteria that is uswd to treat oil spills

Rain with PH less than 5.6

10(Not UP)

Biodiversity Hotspot

Food

Industries

Andhra Pradesh(Biryani needs oil)

Rainfall throughout the year(can go 3-4 months without Water) Long Gestation Periods (4 years ) Grow in Tropical Regions ( 8 deg N and S of Equator)

RSPO(Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil)

bats, beetles, butterflies, birds, bees (Pollinators)

Varroa Mite - Parasite

Non Renewable Energy generated through conversion of Coal, Oil, Natural Gas etc.

creation of 2 forms of energy from 1 fuel

Photovoltaic cells

It has 2 diodes - +ve and -ve Sun energy absorbed by negative and positive charges electrons freed from negative semiconductor material they then migrate to positive diodeand create a voltage Differential

thin sheet of material to trap solar radiation

Former can absorb more sunlight (both direct and diffused sunlight) Latter absorbs less sunlight

Abu Dhabi, UAE

Gurgaon

Gujarat

Impoundment - dam (largest station) Diversion - run of river facilities Pumped Storage - battery storage

India China

Temperature Differences btw surface of ocean and depths of ocean - produces electricity

Wave (energy transfer from wind to sea) Tidal

Sunderbans

pathways abt emission of greenhouse gases and aerosols by humans. Rcps- Representation Concentration Pathways (method to determine Emission scenarios)

Temperate Deciduous Forests

energy flow,Nutrient Cycling, ecological succession/development
