Mass Movement: Mass movement is dependent on the development of instability on a hill slope when equilibrium has been disturbed. Safety Factor is a measured by ratio of resistance which the slope offers against movement (sheer STRENGHT) to the force which is trying to enact that movement (sheer STRESS) Factors affecting Sheer STRESS 1) Angle /Steepness of Slope: Inclination of slope will affect the magnitude of gravitational force enacting on the regolith. a. the larger the angle

METHODS OF IRRIGATION The manner in which water is applied to the land is commonly referred to as method of irrigation. These methods are adopted to apply irrigation water to the crop depending on the landscape‚ amount of water and equipment available‚ the crop and method of cultivation of crop. The main aim of these methods is to store water in the effective root zone uniformly and in maximum quantity ensuring minimum water loss and to get optimum yield. Various methods of irrigation are: 1.

The evolution of plants has resulted in increasing levels of complexity‚ from the earliest algal mats‚ through bryophytes‚ lycopods‚ ferns to the complex gymnosperms and angiosperms of today. While the groups which appeared earlier continue to thrive‚ especially in the environments in which they evolved‚ each new grade of organisation has eventually become more "successful" than its predecessors by most measures. Probably an algal scum formed on land 1‚200 million years ago. In the Ordovician period

outcome. Drylands are characterized by water scarcity stemming from the conjunction of low water offer (i.e.‚ precipitation) and high water demand (i.e.‚ water lost to the atmosphere as water vapor from soil via evaporation and from plants through transpiration). Drylands ’ precipitation is highly variable through the year and occurs in infrequent‚ discrete‚ and largely unpredictable events. In turn‚ the high evaporative demand of the atmosphere‚ resulting from high air temperatures‚ low humidity‚ and
