Suyya’s Flood: Numerical Models of Kashmir’s Medieval Megaflood and Ancient Lake Kerewa Drainage Events by Muntaha Urooj, Roger Bilham, Bikram S. Bali, S. Imran Ahmed

“…Given the morphology of the Jhelum gorge we consider that landslide outburst floods may have been common in Kashmir’s history. Ancient shorelines indicate that paleo-lake volumes in the Kashmir Valley may have exceeded 400 km3 which, were they released in catastrophic floods, would have been associated with potential downstream outburst velocities >32 m/s, able to transport boulders with dimensions ≈40 m, far in excess of any found in the course of the Jhelum or in the Punjab plains. …”

Comparative response of fennel, ajwain, and anise in terms of osmolytes accumulation, ion imbalance, photosynthetic and growth functions under salinity by Javad Nouripour-Sisakht, Parviz Ehsanzadeh, Mohammad H. Ehtemam

“…Even though certain genotype- and species-specificities were observed in the salt-induced modifications of these physiological attributes, decreasing in growth, plant dry mass, root volume, relative water content, and K+ concentration concomitant to increasing in the catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and guaiacol peroxidase activities, malondialdehyde, total soluble carbohydrates, proline and Na+ concentrations, Na+/K+, and essential oil were common to the examined species and genotypes. The K+ concentration of the stressed plants of anise genotypes was smaller, giving shape to a greater Na+/K+ than those of fennel and ajwain. …”
