and Webster permafrost is, “a permanently frozen layer at variable depth below the surface in frigid regions of a planet”. This happens in places such as East Asia, Canada, and Alaska. Underneath these regions surface soil are huge blocks of ice. These huge blocks of ice under the soil have been frozen for at least fifty-thousand years. Some large glaciers and sheets of ice are left over from the Pleistocene period. “The Pleistocene period began 1,800,000 years ago, and ended 10,000 years…

fresh and brackish marshes, swamps, ditches, moist wetlands and meadows. It is tolerant of diverse site conditions, but thrives in direct sun, finely textured soils, and shallow fresh water. Wildlife Uses Stands of Rush form deep, fibrous root systems. These provide shoreline protection, filter pollutants, absorb nutrients, and facilitate soil health.

Question 2 – What is one possible threat to continued food production in this biome? Justify your reasoning. Threat: Diseases in the Soil This threat emerges through the presence of clods. Clods are compacted clumps of soil that are anaerobic. When there are no clumps in the soil, the plants are fine. When tractors or other heavy machinery drive over the soil, it compacts it and expels the air. This is how clods are formed. The roots of the plants can’t penetrate these clods and are forced to…

Plants gain a lot of nutrients in their daily lives. They get it mostly from water and also the soil. Water is a molecule made up of the following atoms, Hydrogen and Oxygen. In this molecule the electrons are not shared equally between these atoms. Electrons are negatively charged so if they spend more time around an atom the atom becomes negative. The electrons turn Oxygen negative because they spend more time together. The reason for the electrons to be around Oxygen is because Oxygen has…

The weeding method included two power tiller operated weeders Cultivator and Rotavator. Study was carried out at three different forward speeds of 1, 1.5 and 2km/hr. For all the factors Rotavator gave superior results than Cultivator. The maximum soil manipulation was achieved by Rotavator at lowest forward speed of 1km/hr. which leads to higher crop yield. Least time required for weeding was obtained by Rotavator at forward speed of 2km/hr. which is 7.80hr/ha while for Cultivator for same speed…

A Discussion on the effect of Bush Encroachment on the Agricultural land in Namibia. Definition: bush encroachment is the thickening of indigenous woody plant species and their incursion into area they did not occur abundantly before (Axel Routhauge, 2014). It can be unplanned conversion of vegetation dominated by grassland to one dominated by woody species, often as result of overgrazing or invasion by aliens. This essay aims to clarify more on the various effects that bush encroachment cause…
