Calculations of the Dipole Moments of Trisubstituted Benzenes—1, 2, 3-, 1, 2, 4-and 1,3, 5-Substitutions
Dipole Moment of Indene
The dipole moment of indene is determined in three non-polar solventscyclohexane, CCl4 and CS2 covering a dielectric constant range of about 2.0 to 2.6. The experimental observations are treated in the manner of Guggenheim for obtaining the dipole moment values. The high value of about 0.85 D obtained for the moment of the compound is suggested as probably arising out of the resonance of the molecule between various structures as in the ease of the related compounds cyclopentadiene and fluorene
Climate change, mitigation and adaptation with reference to agriculture over the humid tropics - Winter School on Impact of Climate Change on Indian Marine Fisheries held at CMFRI, Cochin 18.1.2008 to 7.2.2008 -Winter School on Impact of Climate Change on Indian Marine Fisheries
The Bali road map under UNFCCC highlighted the conclusions of IPCC on climate change across
the World. It indicates that the global warming is real. The Polar ice is melting and sea level will increase.
One-third of our plant and animal species are likely to vanish. There will be famine around the world,
particularly in Africa and central Asia. The Reduction of Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation
(REDD) in developing countries is on top priority as deforestation alone may cause 20 to 25% increase in
greenhouse gas emissions in the atmosphere. The second major issue is on “Adaptation Fund” designed to
help developing countries dealing with impact of climate change. Therefore, it is pertinent to follow the
guidelines at the regional scale so as to mitigate the ill effects of climate change on war-footing
Impact of weather extremes on Indian food grain production -Winter School on Impact of Climate Change on Indian Marine Fisheries held at CMFRI, Cochin 18.1.2008 to 7.2.2008
Climate change and variability are recent concerns of humankind. The recurrent drought and
desertification threaten seriously the livelihood of over 1.2 billion people who depend on land for most of
their needs. The global economy has adversely been influenced due to droughts and floods, cold and heat
waves, forest fires, landslips and mudslips, icestorms, duststorms, hailstorms, thunder clouds associated
with lightning and sea level ris
