The RCP8.5 Future of Sub-Saharan Africa and High Northern Latitudes by 2100 1. Introduction 1.1 RCPs and RCP8.5 RCPs is short for Representative Concentration Pathways, which are a set of four new scenarios defined by their approximate total radiative forcing in 2100 relative 1750: 2.6 W/m2 for RCP2.6, 4.5 W/m2 for RCP4.5, 6.0 W/m2 for RCP6.0, and 8.5 W/m2 for RCP8.5, for the Fifth Assessment Report of IPCC. RCP2.6 represents a mitigation scenario resulting in a very low forcing level. RCP4.5…

We can look back at the history of the two nation’s disputes. They have had issues based on the sought after territory for centuries, but up to this point, they have not gone to war. In all the years of the border disputes, only three times the two have actually taken military action. In 2007, 2011, and 2014 one of the two have used military force and caused military disputes. All three concluded as stalemate. While Pluto and Saturn both have motives and fit the criteria based on…

general, disturbance is an event that causes a change in the structure of an ecosystem, resource availability, and/or the physical environment (Turner, 2010). There are also disturbance regimes, which focuses on the temporal and spatial dynamics of disturbance on a longer time scale (Turner, 2010). The significance of a disturbance event or regime are dependent on three main properties: intensity, severity, and magnitude (Grayston, 2016a). However, when studying the significance of a…

Noise Mitigation in Urban Areas: AUBMC 2020 Case Study Abstract- This paper studies noise pollution in a local context and aims at finding feasible mitigation measures taking AUBMC area as a case study. After thoroughly researching the topic to better understand the causes and implications of noise, as well as suggested solutions to alleviate its severity, the group moved towards applying these findings to the study area. A professional sound meter was used to measure noise levels at different…

The Endangered Species Act of 1973 has become the strongest and most important federal law in the protection of imperiled wildlife and plants. It has played a big role as the forerunner of animal rights in the U.S political system outside of domesticated species. It federally prohibits against the “taking” of an endangered species, enabling “protections making it illegal to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, collect, or attempt to do these things to these animals and…

addition, discourse in linguistics, is a unit of language larger than a single sentence. More broadly, discourse is known as the use of spoken or written language in a social context. Furthermore, discourses need, by no means, be “grand” or large scale. (Gee, 2006, P. 22) To conclude, text is one among the different levels of language which is investigated according to a branch of language known as discourse analysis. Secondly, text analysis and discourse…

Regardless of culture, location or time, death and birth have always been two concepts that humans have always been keen to discuss. On one hand, we have the spiritual and esoteric comprehension of these features, and on the other hand, the more material qualities as presented by trends, statistics and records. Just as much as the concept of birth and death can tell us a great deal of information in the social properties of a given group, the actual recorded births and deaths can explain a…

planet near the black hole but when returns to the ship, many years have passed. Traveling forward in time is completely appropriate with the laws of physics. And all of it is technically possible and even though it is only a bit fraction of a second scale. Wormhole is the theoretical passage in space-time that may create shortcuts for a long journey through the universe. These are the predictions of the theory of relativity. But wormholes also bring the danger of sudden collapse, high…

COMPARATIVE STUDY ON FRICTION WELDED AND ELECTRON BEAM WELDED JOINTS MADE BY 20VNiMoCr120 STEEL Gabriela IANCULESCU*, Lucia Violeta MELNIC, Marian Andrei GURĂU Ovidius University of Constanta Abstract: In the paper there are presented experimental results concerning mechanical characteristics of friction-welded joints in comparison with electron beam welded joints, made by 20VNiMoCr120 heat-resistant steel, which are part of some elements working at high pressure and temperature. The paper…
