Agriculture is the back.bone of Indian economy; a substantial percent of GDP is still being contributed by agriculture. For the development of agriculture, assured supply of irrigation is needed. Groundwater plays an important role, not only in mitigating the problem of irrigation water for agriculture but also serves as source for domestic and industrial supply of water. As such fluctuations of groundwater table over the different periods of the year plays important role. In this paper, an attempt has been made to model the groundwater table in two agriculturally important districts namely Nadia and Burdwan. Time series data (2005 to 2013) recorded during January, May, August and November each year from a number of sites in each districts are used for study purpose. Various parametric model are used to delineate and model the fluctuations of groundwater tables for these two districts. Multivariate clustering technique using squared Euclidean distance measure and adopting complete link.ge method has been used to cluster 50 sites in Burdwan and 19 sites in Nadia district based on their groundwater fluctuations over the seasons. Analysis reveals that in both the districts three groups could be framed out of the 50 and 19 groundwater level measuring sites of Burdwan and Nadia, respectively. Discriminant analysis was also attempted to identify the contribution of different seasons in groundwater fluctuations during the clustering of the sites in each district. The authors are hopeful that the result of the study will help the planners in tak.ng cluster wise action plan for monitoring and maintaining the groundwater table in these two districts.
We report on the discovery of two emission features observed in the x-ray spectrum of the afterglow of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) of 16 December 1999 by the chandra X-ray Observatory. These features
