The Government of India and the World Bank had signed three agreements to for cleaning Ganga River and to Strengthen Rural Livelihoods and Biodiversity Conservation in India. The River cleaning project is to the tune of US $ 1 billion (approximately Rs 4,600 crore) loan and credit that will form part of the Bank’s long-term support for cleaning the Ganga River. Two Biodiversity Conservation agreements are for a credit of US$15.6 million and US$8.14 million grant. The river project will be the greatest source of transport and can hold the suitable infrastructure for food supplies in situ that has been responsible for reviving many south american nations from the point of extinction. The Amazon serves as a multinational highway for Venezuela, Columbia and Ecuador that has given a very efficient project for food distribution to remote parts of the globe. I would like to get suitable suggestions from your end about the feasibility of the project and how plans can be energized in reducing the carbon foot print.
Firstly , I would ask what are the steps that can be incorporated in improving energy efficiency, benchmarks for specific energy consumption etc. can be shared and adopted by amongst each other.
Secondly based on my ideas I would like to develop a remote monitored river transport system which will have a beacon attached with buoys that tell how the water level may be rising or falling. Secondly flood forecast along the levels and also developing a coordination system. The analysis will be that if two boats are in separate streams, the boat can send a small buoy and get to the other boat and get the job done. Thirdly , the government plans to set up 11 terminals along the stretch of the Ganga from Allahbad to Hooghly. The system may require a monitor of the identifying small boats and alarming if a large cargo if that is reaching shallow waters.
I have some plans but need your ideas on river transport and how it can be made fluid in Indian conditions. I would also like to learn from the seniors who may have worked in such a kind of project.
I have completed my phd thesis on "Earthquake Genesis Mechanism and Earthquake Warning System Design".During this period I have been able to complete coursework related to integrated model development study.I have published 17 research publications in various peer reviewed journal.I would be greatly helped if the forum can help me in formating my thesis.I would like to apply for post doc or a research Engineer in various international labs across Europe who are constantly trying to develop a Geodynamic model in identifying Earthquake triggering basins.I would like to format the writing of my thesis in such a way that it provides a hollistic approach to Earthquake forecast and genesis. I would like to know what is the way of writing the thesis for European Universitites to accept.
I am looking for guidance for doing higher research and finding a better answer to the process of integrated model development in earthquake forecast design
