VULCANICITY

Image
Vulcanicity is the phenomenon of eruption of molten rock ( magma ) onto the  surface of the Earth  or a solid-surface planet or moon, where  lava ,  pyroclastic , and  volcanic gases  erupt through a break in the surface called a vent. It includes all phenomena resulting from and causing magma within the  crust  or  mantle  of the body, to rise through the crust and form  volcanic rocks  on the surface. Magmas that reach the surface and solidify form extrusive landforms.           photo credit:loicethedigitalhumanist             3D model of a volcano WHAT CAUSES VOLCANO TO ERUPT Volcanic eruptions are among the most stunning phenomena in the natural world.  Volcanoes  erupt because of the way heat  moves  beneath  Earth’s surface . Heat is conveyed from the planet’s interior to its surface largely by  convection —the transfer of heat by moveme...

SEA MOUNTAINS

Sea mountains, also known as  underwater or seamounts , are submerged volcanic peaks that rise from the sea floor . They can be found in various parts of the world's oceans and can vary in size and shape. These underwater features are often formed by  volcanic eruptions and can reach heights of several thousand meters from the ocean floor. Seamounts can provide important habitat for  marine life , as they create upwelling currents and attract a diverse range of species. Some seamounts can even reach the surface of the water and form  islands  or  coral reefs                 photo by Loicethedigitalhumanist of a 3D                sea mountain model RE FERENCES>> https://www.noaa.gov/education/resource-collections/ocean-coasts/ocean-floor-features

SMALL SCALE CATTLE RANCHING

Today, India is the world’s largest producer of milk and is key to the supply chains of its milk-deficient neighbours, which makes the industry culturally and economically vital. Small scale cattle ranching is the practice of raising cattle for dairy farming on a ranch or large farm. It involves the breeding, raising, and management of cattle, including providing them with food, water, shelter, and medical care.This can be practised on a small-scale. Cattle ranching plays a significant role in the agricultural industry.The dairy products derived from cattle ranching are important sources of food for many people around India. There are some advantages of practicing small-scale cattle ranching: Lower costs: Small-scale cattle ranching typically requires less land and infrastructure compared to large-scale operations, resulting in lower initial investments and ongoing expenses. Flexibility: Small-scale ranchers have the flexibility to adapt their practices based on market demands and...

MY UNDERSTANDING ABOUT THE PERSPECTIVES OF DIGITAL HUMANITIES BASED ON THE LECTURES DELIVERED BY DR. VALIUR RAHAMAN

At the time of explaining the history of digital humanities, Prof. Rahaman interpreted problems in global society raised by the failure of technologies and solutions to the problems like safety security, discrimination, prevention of suicide and the role of technology as a digital saviour. He says, "Technology serves humanity when we make technology feel or experience the importance of human values and culture." (2023 LPU) He goes on to quote from the lines from the essay Busa. The next blog will explain these lines. "During World War II, between 1941 and 1946, I began to look for machines for the automation of the linguistic analysis of written texts. I found them, in 1949, at IBM in New York City. Today, as an aged patriarch (born in 1913) I am full of amazement at the developments since then; they are enormously greater and better than I could then imagine. Digitus Dei est hic! The finger of God is here! I consider it a great honor to be asked to write the F...
WHAT DO I LEARN FROM DIGITAL HUMANITIES My first day Digital humanities is a mixture of all humanity subjects. So, from my first day I learnt that it equips to save the humanities to be adapted within the human society, not just simple text analysis. Digital humanities also allows one to more data usage, combining different data source, hyperlink to relevant background materials. I also got to know that computer humanities was established in 1996 and Literacy and Linguistic was established in 1986.Also Thomas Aquinas was a philosopher who translated symbols or chords with the usage of digital humanities which is mainly referred text analysis. Digital humanities have a history with 1,334 articles. It also covers many subject orientations for example mapping ang GIS in geography. Then in Psychology and also sociology it can also come in handy. Digital humanities also deals with text analysis, software’s and hardware’s. Where a software is a set of instructions, data used to operate comp...
