The potential of methane production in a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) was investigated using dairy manure as inoculum at pH 6.8 and 37 degrees C temperature in this study. Two identical anaerobic bioreactors namely CSTR1 and CSTR2 filled with palm oil mill effluent (POME) as a carbon source were...
Biological hydrogen production through photo-fermentative process using dark fermented palm oil effluent (DPOME) is a cost effective and environmentally benign process. In this study, effect of various factors like light intensity, agitation rate and dilution of DPOME on the hydrogen productivity of Rhodopseudomanas palustris were investigated using batch system. Investigation...
One of the important ‘hallmarks’ of cancer is angiogenesis, which is the process of formation of new blood vessels that are necessary for tumor expansion, invasion and metastasis. Under normal physiological conditions, angiogenesis is well balanced and controlled by endogenous proangiogenic factors and antiangiogenic factors. However, factors produced by cancer...
New apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He cooling ages quantify late Cenozoic exhumation patterns associated with fault activity across the Kashmir Himalaya. Apatite (U-Th)/He (AHe) cooling ages of detrital grains from the Sub-Himalayan foreland sediments indicate significant resetting. AHe data and thermal modeling reveal cooling and exhumation initiated by 4Ma at the...
Satellite image interpretation, geologic mapping, and paleoseismic trenching are
used to investigate the Trans-Yamuna active fault system in the northwestern Doon Valley
of the Indian Himalayan foothills. This east-west fault system is subparallel to and crosses
the Main Boundary thrust near the structural transition from the Nahan salient to the...

Active tectonics of a deformation front constrains the kinematic evolution and structural interaction between the fold-thrust belt and the most-recently accreted foreland basin. At the Himalayan deformation front, the thrust front is blind, characterized by a broad fold (the Suruin-Mastgarh anticline (SMA)), and displays no emergent faults cutting the southern...
