The severity of drought during the Maya collapse The severity of drought conditions throughout the dying of the Maya civilization regarding one,000 years agone has been quantified, representing another piece of proof that would be wont to solve the long mystery of what caused the downfall of 1 of the traditional world’s nice civilizations. [1] TEST OF COTTON LINES WITH DROUGHT TOLERANT INTERCROPPED WITH MAIZE The distribution of cotton cultivation is usually settled within the sub-optimal land because of competition … Continue reading “Press Release on Drought Research: September-2018”

Enhancing global food security by increasing the productivity of green revolution varieties of cereals risks increasing the collateral environmental damage produced by inorganic nitrogen fertilizers. Improvements in the efficiency of nitrogen use of crops are therefore essential; however, they require an in-depth understanding of the co-regulatory mechanisms that integrate growth, nitrogen assimilation and carbon fixation. Here we show that the balanced opposing activities and physical interactions of the rice GROWTH-REGULATING FACTOR 4 (GRF4) transcription factor and the growth inhibitor DELLA … Continue reading “Modulating plant growth–metabolism coordination for sustainable agriculture”

We could get to the stage where atmospheric greenhouse gases are in decline – a point known as drawdown – and begin to reverse global warming before 2050, but it will require us adopting solutions at an aggressive rate, according to Chad Frischmann, vice-president and research director of Project Drawdown. Project Drawdown is a worldwide research and communications initiative with a plan to reverse global warming based on 100 existing and emerging solutions. An independent European arm, Drawdown Europe, has … Continue reading “Global warming could be in reverse by 2050 if we take action now – Chad Frischmann”

Research No: – 1 INVESTIGATION OF THE SPRAY AND FLAME STRUCTURE CHARACTERISTICS OF JATROPHA BIODIESEL USING SIMPLEX AIRBLAST ATOMIZER In the current scenario, the global warming and the climate change due to the emission liberated by conventional fossil fuel would show the adverse impact on the globe. The efforts for a better solution to reduce carbon dioxide CO2 pollution emitted by transportation and other power producing units like thermal power plant, gas turbine units. Biodiesel, a renewable fuel is one of … Continue reading “New Global Warming Research”

The Cretaceous/Paleogene mass extinction ended the reign of the dinosaursand wiped out 76% of species on Earth. It was caused by the impact of an asteroid in the southern Gulf of Mexico approximately 66 million years ago, forming the Chicxulub impact crater. Although the asteroid killed off species, new research has found that the crater it left behind was home to sea life less than a decade after impact, and it contained a thriving ecosystem within 30,000 years. A research team led by University … Continue reading “Sea Life Recovered Surprisingly Rapidly at Impact Crater of Dino-Killing Asteroid”
