    solved at first. Transient conservation equations are as follow: Mass conservation (1) (∂(ε(1-s)ρ_g))/∂t+∇.(ρ_g u ⃗_g )=S_m In this equation u ⃗_g is superficial velocity vector of gas mixture, which related to intrinsic fluid velocity U as following: (2) (u_g ) ⃗=ε(1-s)U ⃗ In the gas transfer channel, the porosity is equal one and the liquid water volume fraction is zero; so in this area, the superficial velocity will be equal to the intrinsic velocity. Momentum conservation (3) 1/ε(1-s) ∂(ρ_g u…

    Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to prove and discern the empirical formula of copper oxide using the Law of Conservation of Mass. This states that in measuring the mass of each component of copper oxide and determining the percent composition of each the copper and the oxygen within copper oxide it is possible to find the ratio of the elements within the compound. Procedure: In order to conduct this lab, 25.1mL of distilled water then 25.5mL of 3M HCl must be added 2.11g of copper oxide.…

    conducting this assignment I regard this award to be one of the most important conservation awards, as it empowers local conservationists that receive ill attention. Overall, I found the Buffett Award assignment to be very challenging, in a positive way, and inspiring. From both regions, all previous Buffett Award winners had achievements that deserved significant recognition even among the most well known conservation biologists. The work performed by these grassroot conservationists has…

    In conservation biology, it is one of the main goals to determine MVP (minimum viable population) and reserve size. These estimates that are produced via simulation, are valuable in the sense as grizzly populations are often endangered or threatened, and their population has been declining for a number of years (Wielgus, 2001). Although the population is declining, it is still legal in North America to hunt these endangered species, as trophy hunting and is believed to be beneficial or…

    messages from the presentation, in particular, that resonated with me the most. These messages include the purpose of conservation, and persevering even when the outlook is grim. It was due to the relatedness and the fact that conservation scientists often forget these messages that I regard the aforementioned messages as the most important. Brian Gratwicke defined the purpose of conservation science to be the mitigation of a threat. This purpose is often lost in light of politics. For…

    U.S.” not to mention that “a fifth of the world’s [population], [that is,] more than 1.2 billion [people], live in areas of physical water scarcity.” Living in the United States, it can be easy to disregard a drought and the importance of water conservation because we always manage to obtain the water necessary to supply the population. Even with a slight price fluctuation, the difference is many times not substantial enough for people to think twice about their water usage. One of the biggest…
