Turbidity current

Introduction The Pennsylvania Jackfork Group is located in the Ouachita Mountains, occupying Arkansas and Oklahoma. Several authors interpreted the Pennsylvania Jackfork Group as a classic flysch sequence in a submarine fan setting, dominated by turbidites. Shanmugam and Moiola (1995) reveal contrary evidence for the origin of these beds. They interpret the origin of these beds to be from debris-flow, slump, and bottom-current because slabbed samples from sedimentary features appear “massive” in outcrop, thin sections show variation in vertical grain size, individual units contained in the matrix, and the use of the term “turbidite” in relationship to process sedimentology. The purpose of this paper was to create a depositional model for…

whole state of Nebraska. This climate includes hot summers and dry cold winters. It is very humid and averages 30.6 inches of precipitation annually, with frequent thunderstorms. The microclimate of my ecosystem is hot summers, and dry cold winters with lots of snowfall. The lake freezes over every year in the winter months, and the lake in the summer months goes up and down in water level. The paths are shaded and the days are sometimes windy. My ecosystem also has many abiotic and biotic…

used in a salt form, such as, disodium or calcium disodium EDTA. Turbidity Turbidity measures water clarity and how cloudy or muddy the water is, high turbidity levels from suspended and colloidal solids in the water, decrease the passage of light, and plant growth. This in turn affects the fish and invertebrate communities which feed on and live in the plants. Materials that can cause turbidity are silt, microorganisms, plant material and chemicals. However, the most frequent causes of…

QA Lab day one: I tested five games during this QA lab ,There Might Be Ponds, office mayhem, Kanji Samurai, The Fog, and an unnamed tower defence game. All five of the games tested where digital and for the most part functional. I had never tested these games before this being my first QA lab. I enjoyed most of the games thoroughly but i found myself liking There Might Be Ponds the most. There Might Be Ponds is a charmfull puzzle game that implements a intersting to hand mechanic in which you…

Introduction: Water quality is the scientific measurement describing the cleanliness of water and/or the condition of the water being studied. Factors that used to describe water quality are pH, Dissolved Oxygen, Temperature, Turbidity, Nitrogen, Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Fecal Coliform, Phosphate, and Total Solids. Water quality is important to know because water is a necessary part of life, and people need to know how clean the water they’re using is. Water quality is important for…

This experiment was designed to test what the limiting nutrient was in Loughberry Lake, as well as examine the trophic state of the lake. In order to find out what the limiting nutrient was, we performed a few different tests. We began with a secchi disk test to see the transparency of the water. Then, we took water samples that we later used to test the turbidity levels of the water after adding varying amounts of phosphorous and nitrogen. Phosphorous was the limiting nutrient in the lake,…

The Catholic Church teaches seven principles of social teaching, and in those teachings are the dignity of a human being, call to a particular group or family and to participate, rights and responsibilities, giving to the wellbeing of the poor, dignity and rights of workers, solidarity, and lastly care for god’s creation. The Chesapeake Bay has been degraded by pollution, manmade and natural change over the course of many years. But many young adults can make a change and help out by taking part…

Large decreases in the algae population will most likely impact the bay ecosystem by killing off organisms and plants. Algae is a crucial plant in the Chesapeake Bay that needs to steadily grow to keep the animal population consistent. Bay grass, also known as underwater grass, grows in the superficial areas of the Chesapeake Bay. It is crucial to the environment because it absorbs extra nutrients, shelters small fish, and keeps the water looking less murky. Like Algae, Bay grass provides…

This is a paper about a the Chesapeake Bay and how its food chain works, what the roles of the organisms are, the possible effects of a decrease in population of the algae, plants, and animals, also the possible causes for this and why as well as the preventions being done against this as well as the fixing of them. Also what else could be done or should be done about the issue. That is the main topic and subject this paper is gonna talk about. There are many organisms within the Chesapeake Bay…

The third component will begin in July 2017, which involves understanding our Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and hiring a trained professional who has extensive knowledge pertaining to MIPS. Therefore, the first activity in component three is to ensure our EMR, eClinical, is sufficient enough to handle the MIPS reporting data. For example, the EMR needs to be able to extract quality measures in order for our organization to report to CMS by the end of the 2017 fiscal year. In this activity,…
