Atmospheric circulation

The formation of smog that is highly sensitive to temperatures since photochemical reactions are more likely to occur and intensify at higher temperatures. Atmospheric pollution can be aggravated due to the accumulation of smog. In addition, the increased emissions of ozone precursors from vehicles is also associated with the high ambient temperature (Shahmohamadi, et al, 2012). situation in Los Angeles City where…

Chapter 2 LITERATURE SURVEY 2.1. Characteristics of Hydrogen Sulphide 2.1.1. Physical and Chemical Properties H2S is a colourless gas characterised by a rotten gas odour which is highly toxic. It is soluble in different liquids including water and alcohols. It is typically formed under deficit oxygen conditions in the presence of organic matter and sulphate compounds (WHO, 2003). Hydrogen Sulphide is also present in the atmosphere in the range of 0.0001-0.0002 ppm though it may vary with places…

Often referred to as the ‘building blocks of life’ the carbon cycle is the circulation and transformation of carbon between living organisms and the environment, as many living tissues contain carbon compounds (name, date). One of the most common elements on earth, carbon is the basis for all living things and the environment; carbon…

comparing resources of groundwater and surface water. Finally ending with a discussion about fresh water, on the ground and atmosphere. In the article, the author starts by explaining the beginning of water and its origins. Water has been in an endless circulation for millennia between the geosphere and atmosphere. Scientist theorizes water might have come from two primary sources; volcanic steam and water arriving from…

According to the UNTOC (UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime) transnational crimes do not have a precise definition, but in the criminological perspective transnational crime is identified as criminal activities which is against national jurisdiction. In 1995 the United Nations identified eighteen categories which were considered to be transnational crimes. Those crimes were; money laundering, terrorist activities, theft of art and cultural objects, theft of intellectual property…

decrease, and our economy will suffer. Human activity is over burdening our air with carbon dioxide and other dangerous atmospheric leakages, which trap heat, consistently drive up the planet 's temperature, and make huge and unsafe effects on our wellbeing, our surroundings, and our atmosphere. Power generation represents more than 33% of the United States dangerous atmospheric levels,…

warming and climate change. Anthropogenic reasons are controllable but they been dominating now over the natural, due to which balance of the atmospheric heat budget has been disturbed and more amount of heat has been stuck in the biosphere than usually required to control the life processes (Peter et al., 1997). After Industrial revolution, the atmospheric composition changed drastically due to the addition of the emitted greenhouse gases which have very high warming potential and long life…

In ancient China, it was relatively rare to dissect or otherwise violate human bodies due to a teaching from Confucius that the human body is sacred and not to be cut with a knife. Consequently, the knowledge of anatomy in ancient China was not based on scientific knowledge, but instead, assumption and reasoning (Singh, 2008; Quigley, 1996; Newton, 2003). Thus many, if not all, traditional Chinese medicine is considered pseudoscience because it lacks scientific evidence proving its effectiveness…

Article 1: According to Karl Hanes in his “Effects on Salinity in Florida’s Estuaries”, Florida’s most important estuary, economically wise, will be impacted on greatly as a result of climate change. This climate change is causing the sea-levels to rise and a change in the river flow to occur. Due to this, an increase in salinity levels will result in the harming of the biodiversity and their habitats that are present within the estuary. As a result of high salinity levels many of the estuaries…
