Harmonic analyses of weekly means of soil temperatures were made at Jodhpur, India with sandy to loamy sand soil (clay content 6-8%). The amplitudes and phase angles corresponding to various depths in respect of different harmonics are presented. The amplitudes for various depths vary between 4.8ยฐC

โฆ Synopsis
Abstract
Ephemeral channels in arid regions convey larger amounts of sediment than perennial channels in humid regions. Sediment graphs at the outlet of channels have been derived by the standard sediment rating curve technique and by a lumped model based on the instantaneous unit sediment graph (IUSG) concept. The IUSG gives estimates of sediment transport that are better than those derived with the sediment rating curve as it takes into account the availability of erodible material within the channel bed.

The Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) can be calculated from satellite imagery and is generally recognised as a reliable index of ground vegetation cover. A simple, parsimonious model is presented to relate observed levels of the NDVI to decadal (10-day) rainfall over the preceding seven
