Sand

This soil type has a high drainage rate compared to other soil types. The high amount of sand content means that there is a lack of nutrients in the soil due to sand not being negatively charged compared to clay like soils and no mulch to stop evaporation on hot days. To fix this i would add organic matter (eg. gypsum or compost) to the soil to help nutrients and also add mulch…

Crab Hole As I walked along the road, excitement coursing through me, I started to get closer to the beach. I took in everything around me, the sand already digging into my feet, the mountain in the distance, covered with lush green trees and full of vibrant colorful flowers. I could smell the scent of salt in the air, watching the rolling waves of blue, clear water. I breathed in the fresh air and said to myself, ”This is what Hawaii smells like.” This was because I was in Hawaii. My whole…

brown color because of the oxidation or rusting of iron within the sediments to form “iron oxide” which is basically rust and nodular sediments are dark brown and black. However boulders, cobbles, and pebbles made of better-quality particles which is sand, silt, and clay and they are defined by particle size. The sediments, like the rain, slowly dusted on the oceanic floor, however, rates are ranging from a few centimeters a year to a thickness of a dime every thousand of years. Except for the…

In all three poems from Percy Shelley, he brings up that you can learn from things that you typically wouldn’t think you can learn from. He points out that you can learn from ruin cities, to wind, to even birds singing. Each of his poems has a message behind them whether it is not to be so full of yourself and stay humble or even learning from a bird that is singing a song. Throughout all of Shelley’s poems, Ozymandias, Ode to the West Wind, and To a Skylark, Shelley wants to point out that no…

spent our childhood. Grenada Lake was a place where we would go to camp, fish, swim, and ride jet skis and boats. It was not a summer that we did not go to Grenada Lake. Grenada Lake is a fun, beautiful, and peaceful place. You are surrounded by water, sand, woods, and hills. I just enjoyed spending time there…

Synthesis of reactive iron Chemical reduction method of Ferric chloride by sodium borohydride following reaction (Eq.1), was used to synthesize ZVI [14]. 〖2FeCl〗_3+〖6NaBH〗_4+〖18H〗_2 O→〖2Fe〗^0+〖21H〗_2+〖6B(OH)〗_3+6NaCl (1) Ferric chloride hexahydrate solution was prepared by dissolving 5 g of FeCl_3.H_2 O (99.0%, Junsei Chemical Co., Japan) in 125 mL of deoxygenated deionized (DI) water. Moreover, 3.5 g of Sodium borohydride (NaBH_4, 98.0%, Sigma–Aldrich Inc., USA) were dissolved in 125 mL…

Over the past ten years, we have produced nearly 55 million tons of rock, sand, and gravel. As we grow towards eight million tons per year, the logical question is: where will the reserves come from. Despite acquiring more than 38 million tons of raw material in the Front Range and 65 million tons through the Higman acquisition, we need to keep a steady focus on downstream acquisition of reserves. For this year’s winter meeting, we would like to turn everyone’s attention to one of the simple…

possibly related to Genyornis Newtoni have been found in Pleistocene dunes in Southern Victoria. With all these places containing traces to the Genyornis Newtoni it gives us clues that the Thunder Birds enjoyed the wide ranges of forests and the heat of sand the most in the habitats. The diet of the Genyornis Newtoni is difficult to identify and even though the beak of the bird was sharp and powerful bu cannot be identified if the bird was a herbivore or a carnivore. It is equally possible that…

The Tibet Monks performance at the Six O’Clock show was quite interesting and unique for numerous reasons, and I have learned significantly from it. There were a group of ten Monks who explained their history, language, communications, and dance/performances verbally and through body language, which was phenomenal. What really caught my eyes was that they were different from our culture, and it was fascinating to learn and understand other cultures. Overall, I learned many things from this show.…

The only materials are sand and (in the case of "12 Hours Tide Object with Correction of Perspective") a shovel, but in "6 Hours Tide Object with Correction of Perspective" Jan Dibbets used a bulldozer instead. The differences between both works is the date, the technique and…
