THER MOUND, SIRSA
#Geography #IndianExpress
A mound in Sirsa could hold clues to the ancient city of ‘Sarishika’. However, before the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) can confirm the historicity of the site, it has to convince the nearly 50,000 people living on the identified 82 acres to move away from the land.
About:
Sirsa is a city and a municipal council in Sirsa district of Haryana.
Sirsa is believed to be one of the oldest towns located in Haryana, the ancient route leading to Taxila.
Its present name is derived from the ancient name Sarishika, which finds mention in the Mahabharta, Panini's Ashtadhyayi and Buddhist text Divyavadana.
Ancient site of Ther Mound:
The ruins of the ancient Sarishika are presumably buried in this mound.
This extensive site is spread over an area of about five kms in circumference with a maximum height of about 15 meters.
No archaeological excavations have so far been conducted at this site. According to government, Stone sculptures, coins, an inscription, pottery pieces and other antiquities collected from surface exploration are sufficient to prove its archaeological relevance.
The 1904 Ancient Monuments Preservation Act first declared Sirsa’s ‘Ther Mound’ a protected monument back in 1932.

WORLD AIR QUALITY REPORT 2019
#Environment #IndianExpress
The 2019 World Air Quality Report was released by the pollution tracker IQAir and Greenpeace.
Key findings:
India accounts for two-thirds of the world’s most polluted cities — 21 of the most polluted 30 cities; 14 of the highest 20; and 6 of the highest 10.
The ranking is based on a comparison of PM2.5 levels.
Among countries, when population is taken into account, average PM2.5 pollution is highest in Bangladesh, followed by Pakistan, while India is at number 5.
While cities in India, on average, exceed the WHO target for annual PM2.5 exposure by 500%, national air pollution decreased by 20% from 2018 to 2019, with 98% of cities experiencing improvements. These improvements are believed to be largely a result of economic slowdown.
According to it, around 90% of the global population is breathing unsafe air.

ULSOOR LAKE
#Geography #TheHindu #prelims2020
The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has ordered the constitution of a joint committee to take water samples from Ulsoor lake to ascertain whether the lake is being polluted owing to illegal activity.
About:
Ulsoor Lake or Halasuru Lake is one of the biggest lakes in Bengaluru.
It is also known as Halasuru Lake. It derives its name from the name of the locality it is situated, namely, Halasuru in Bangalore.
Even though the lake is dated to Kempegowdas' time, the present lake was created by Sir Lewin Bentham Bowring, the then Commissioner of Bangalore.

HENNEGUYA SALMINICOLA
#ScienceTech #IndianExpress
An international team of researchers has found Henneguya salminicola, a multicellular animal with no mitochondrial DNA, making it the only known animal to exist without the need to breathe oxygen.
Background:
One of the common characteristics of all multicellular animals on Earth is mitochondrial respiration—the process by which oxygen is used to generate adenosine triphosphate—the fuel used to power cellular processes. The process takes place in mitochondria.
But now, there is a known exception: Henneguya salminicola.
H. Salminicola:
salminicola, member of the group Myxozoa, is a microscopic parasite that infects salmon.
In their work, the researchers sequenced the DNA of H. salminicola tissue and found no mitochondrial DNA at all. The researchers suggest they likely steal energy from their host using some type of proteins.

InSight MARS LANDER
#ScienceTech #IndianExpress
NASA published a set of six papers to reveal findings of NASA’s InSight lander mission.
About:
Name: InSight is an acronym for “Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport”.
Agencies involved: This mission is part of “NASA's Discovery Program.”
Significance: It is the first mission to study in-depth the "inner space" of Mars: its crust, mantle, and core.
Mission Objectives: InSight won’t be looking for life on Mars. Instead It will study its insides i.e. it seeks to understand the formation and evolution of terrestrial planets through investigation of the interior structure and processes of Mars.
Timeline: The mission successfully landed at Elysium Planitia on Mars in November 2018.
Key findings:
Trembles: Mars trembles more often than expected, but also more mildly. Mars doesn’t have tectonic plates like Earth, but it does have volcanically active regions that can cause rumbles.
Magnetism: At a Martian site called Homestead hollow, the magnetic signals are 10 times stronger than what was predicted earlier.
Dust devils: It has detected/felt (but hasn’t seen yet) thousands of passing whirlwinds, which are called dust devils when they pick up grit and become visible.

PANDEMIC
#Health #IndianExpress
Instead of calling COVID-19 spread as pandemic, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has so far been referring only to a COVID-19 “outbreak”, which WHO on January 30 declared was a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern”.
About:
Definitions: While an outbreak is understood to be a sudden rise in the cases of a disease in a particular place, and an epidemic as a large outbreak among a particular population or region, a pandemic, according to the WHO, is “the worldwide spread of a new disease”.
Criteria for Pandemic: While the WHO looks for sustained outbreaks causing a larger-than-expected number of cases on multiple continents, there is no specific number of countries that a disease must touch for WHO to classify it as a pandemic.

BIOFUEL FROM MICROORGANISMS
#ScienceTech #TheHindu
Researchers at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB) are developing a method to improve the growth rate and sugar content of a marine microorganism called Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002.
Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002:
Background: Biofuel production is dependent on the availability of low-cost and sustainable supply of sugars and a nitrogen source.
Cyanobacteria: Some bacteria, such as the cyanobacteria (also known as blue-green algae), too can perform photosynthesis and produce sugar by fixing the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Cyanobacteria are found in both fresh and marine waters.
Benefits: The yield of sugars from cyanobacteria could potentially be much higher than that of land-based crops. Further, unlike plant-based sugars, cyanobacterial biomass provides a nitrogen source in the form of proteins. This could give a boost to the biofuel sector.
Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002: A team from International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology have successfully engineered a marine cyanobacterium called Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 which showed a higher growth rate and sugar (glycogen) content.
