Surface water

have a devastating impact on the environment and the rate of soil erosion until the Midwest dust bowl incident of the 1930’s, which at that time was too late ("Dust Bowl", 2016). The soil conservation act, created in 1935 paved the way for soil and water control programs, and other conservation…

Fig. 6 shows the results of air permeability, total water absorption, and voids. R mortars had lower permeability than the mortars with WTS. Air permeability of R was 1.13 x 10-13 m², a value 5 times higher than L60. The air permeability increased with increasing WTS content. The water absorption values ranged from 10.6% to 13.7%, and the voids from 9.6% to 12%. The results show that WTS replacement increased the porosity and permeability of geopolymer mortars. The geopolymer binders with WTS…

the author finds that the increase in globalization has led to the need for a global public sphere. However, the author discusses concerns with new forms of public spheres being mediated through advertisers. Thus, while one can deduce that the surface web and many forms of traditional media do not follow Habermas’ requirement of a public sphere being free from the economic markets (like advertising), the article will benefit my argument by showing that the Deep Web presents an unmediated…

On October 1st 2013 in Glen Park library, a branch of the San Francisco Public Library; an FBI agent presented Ross Ulbricht a warrant for his arrest, Ulbricht was the founder and the operator of the notorious, and highly illegal Silk Road Market, operating deep within the internet, which is not accessible by standard search engines, nor is indexed by these search engines. The arrest have sparked a nationwide interest, and introduced a variety of new terms, unknown to most computer users, the…

public sphere was compared to the surface web in consideration of its basic infrastructure, proving that it treats its users’ content and viewpoints equally due to reasons like the lack of search engine prioritization. Anonymity, equality, and privacy were identified as crucial themes of the Deep Web which were consistent with its role as a public sphere after considering both Habermas’ and Fraser’s theories. These arguments were applied to proving that the surface web lacks these qualities…

Two was similar to the previous, Lab Experiment Number One. The prompt was to compare the results of pennies dropped in water, versus the result of pennies being dropped into milk, both at 100 mL. The main purpose of this lab was to further discuss more scientific parts of this lab, such as the surface tension when the cylinder was close to overflowing for both the milk and water. Before performing this lab, my group and I created a hypothesis to reflect upon and to state what we believed would…

8.5.3 INTERPRETATION Comment on the properties of the soil GENERAL REMARKS: This test is useful when the soil is soft and its water content is near liquid limit. The following precautions are necessary when using field vane shear tests: 1. The vane must be rotated soon (within 5 minutes) after insertion into the depth to be tested as delays of one (1) hour to one day may lead to overestimation of strength by 10% to 20% respectively. 2. Standard rate of rotation is 6 degrees per minute. 3.…

(Overfishing 2012) Salinity is also a major issue. When the water table reaches 1-2 meters below the ground’s surface, the water moves and brings salt with it. As this water evaporates, it leaves the salt within the surface layers of the soil. Over time this causes the soil to become saline and limits the growth of vegetation. Salt sensitive plants begin to die and can leave the soil prone…

Backround: Water erosion is when water moves loose soil and alters the earth's landscape. There is 4 types of forms for water erosion, Rill, Rill is a type of water erosion that creates small channels of water on a sloped surface. Splash, Splash erosion is direct movement of the soil when it splashes on the ground, soil can be splashed up to 3 ft away by rain. Gully,Gully erosion is when water creates wide channels in the soil. lastly Sheet. Sheet erosion is when a thin layer of soil is…
