The patterns of agricultural activities have a close bearing on the rural life of India. The application of agro meteorological techniques is fast increasing together with the integrated approaches of scientists of different disciplines during the past few decades.
Agro meteorology is an inter disciplining subject and has now developed in to a full fledged discipline. The teachers and researchers in the subject require a thorough knowledge both of meteorology and ...
For proper application of Agro-meteorological techniques, the knowledge of basic principles of measurement of meteorological and agro meteorological instruments is of paramount importance. Accordingly an attempt has been made in this book to include all the instruments measuring weather parameters and most of the methods of computing derived meteorological indices used to the research purposes. With the development of technology sophisticated and costly ...
The book deals with the study of natural resource conservation, bio-diversity, pollution, population explosion, flora and fauna, global warming and climate change. It is a multidisciplinary subject with the combination of several disciplines like physical and social sciences.
The subjects related to the environment are geography, chemistry, anthropology, sociology, climate change and mitigation and meteorology. Hence, there is a need to know about our ...
Agricultural meteorology, the study of weather and climate, in relation to crop growth, development and production is an exciting and developing science. In recent years it has developed into an independent discipline in India by virtue of its own merit. The scientists, planners and administrators increasingly feel the effect of weather and climate on crop production, as the crop productivity is weather dependent. This book deals with some of the principles and ...
Remote Sensing is a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary science dealing with the collection of the information on natural resources from distance using electromagnetic energy. The principles involved in the process is interaction of radiation with the matter and their surface. Different techniques and technologies have been developed to collect the information and their interpretation. In this fast changing environmental conditions and degradation accurate ...
