22 जुलाई-राष्ट्रीय झंडा अंगीकरण दिवस

-

 झंडा अंगीकरण दिवस हर वर्ष 22 जुलाई को मनाया जाता है। इस दिन अर्थात 22 जुलाई, 1947 को राष्ट्रीय ध्वज तिरंगे को भारत के संविधान द्वारा अपनाया ‘अंगीकृत’ गया था। ‘तिरंगा’ भारत का राष्ट्रीय ध्वज है, जो तीन रंगों से बना है इसलिए हम इसे तिरंगा कहते हैं। तिरंगे में सबसे ऊपर गहरा केसरिया, बीच में सफेद और सबसे नीचे गहरा हरा रंग बराबर अनुपात में है। ध्वज को साधारण भाषा में ‘झंडा’ भी कहा जाता है। झंडे की चौड़ाई और लंबाई का अनुपात 2ः3 है। सफेद पट्टी के केंद्र में गहरा नीले रंग का चक्र है, जिसका प्रारूप अशोक की राजधानी सारनाथ में स्थापित सिंह के शीर्षफलक के चक्र में दिखने वाले चक्र की भांति है। चक्र की परिधि लगभग सफेद पट्टी की चौड़ाई के बराबर है। चक्र में 24 तीलियां हैं।


हमारे राष्ट्रीय ध्वज का इतिहास भी बहुत रोचक है। 20वीं सदी में जब हमारा देश ब्रिटिश सरकार की ग़ुलामी से मुक्ति पाने के लिए संघर्ष कर रहा था, तब स्वतंत्रता सेनानियों को एक ध्वज की ज़रूरत महसूस हुई क्योंकि ध्वज स्वतंत्रता की अभिव्यक्ति का प्रतीक रहा है।


विजयी विश्व तिरंगा प्यारा, झण्डा ऊँचा रहे हमारा।

Shrinking Nemo: Clownfish survive heatwaves by shrinking

-
  Clownfish have been shown to shrink in order to survive heat stress and avoid social conflict, Newcastle University research reveals. The fish, recognisable from the starring role in the film 'Finding Nemo', were studied by academics from the universities of Newcastle, Leeds and Boston, USA. The work was conducted in collaboration with Mahonia Na Dari Conservation and Research Centre, in Kimbe Bay, Papua New Guinea. The team measured the length of 134 clownfish every month for five months, and monitored the water temperature every 4-6 days, during a marine heatwave which are becoming increasingly common as a result of climate change. Publishing in the journal  Science Advances , they reveal the remarkable ability of clownfish to shrink, i.e. they can get shorter, in response to heat stress. Shrinking increased individuals' chances of surviving the heat stress event by as much as 78%. In a heart-warming discovery, they also show that coordination is important for clownfish...
