Despite similar economics and key health indicators, tuberculosis…

minimize the impact of agriculture on water quality to keep the GBR alive. Farmers need to adapt more sustainable farming to minimize the amount of runoff of sediment, nitrogen, and pesticides. Methods used to date have included contour plowing, using GPS navigation to reduce driving and its contribution to runoff and use of more pesticide and herbicide-resistant crops. The aim of this essay is to identify the impacts of agriculture on water quality of the GBR and to discuss approaches to reduce…

This Washington Post article by Amy Wang attempts to illustrate that, contrary to popular belief, American alligators actually feed on animals such as sharks and stingrays. It was previously believed that American alligators constrain themselves to freshwater prey such as fish. However, James Nifong led a study that proved that these alligators venture out to prey on other marine animals. Through his study, James Nifong demonstrated the importance of questioning ideas in order to discover new…
