has been well studied over the last past 4 decades. This paper synthesizes the flow assessment methodologies to understand ecological responses to flow alteration and begins with a compilation of all historical methods to assess environmental flows, evaluates the relationships between ecological responses and flow alteration, describes the research on the new analytic method for developing regional environmental flow standards called the Ecological Limits of Hydrologic Alteration (ELOHA), then…

The aim is keeping the focus on the child, but giving clear understanding of family life, particularly issues which impact upon the child, as well as elements which act as strengths to help the child. However to reflect individualism where everyone has different needs, thoughts and experiences, separate assessments must be undertaken for each child.

All participants (not facilitators) should be followed up between 6 – 12 months after course completion to assess the outcomes and impacts of the training. Mails should be addressed individually and mention the specific training event, title and date and location. Where English was not the language of instruction then the questionnaire will need to be translated and may be delivered…

and unique theories about the K-T extinction. Some theories have good evidence, others have little to none, but there are no guarantees if the evidence is actually good enough. Many people believe that the great extinction happened because of the impact of a cosmic asteroid and created a massive explosion…

In her book The Sixth Extinction, Elizabeth Kolbert writes that there have been five mass extinctions in the history of planet earth. She asserts that currently the earth is on the precipice of a sixth mass extinction. In contrast with the previous five, according to Kolbert this sixth extinction is almost entirely caused by humans and our exploitation of the earth. In each of the book’s thirteen chapters, Kolbert highlights a particular species that is now extinct and analyzes the causes and…

time ago, extinct mysteriously. Paleontologists and scientists have established a variety of possible theories to explain. However, all these theories are still debatable.There are four main possible explanations: Asteroid Impact, Volcano Eruption, Falling Tide and Asteroid Impact theory was established by Luis Alvarez in 1980.Many plants and animals were disappeared abruptly from the fossil record as one moves from layers of rocks documenting the end of the Cretaceous up into rocks…

hit Earth (2) About 65 million years ago an asteroid that is roughly 10 kilometres across, hit Earth on the coast of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. It caused a huge explosion and left a crater that is about 185 kilometres across. This asteroid impact is commonly known to be the reason for the extinction of three quarters of the dinosaurs. (4) The asteroid soared through the sky at more than 40 times the speed of sound. (6) The earth moves through space in its orbit around the sun at…
