definitely effect by global warming. Scientists estimate that glaciers around the world are losing 92 cubic-kilometers of ice each year, and it is a very remarkable loss in glacier cover. Glaciers stores water as ice in the winter, and melt during summer. There is a natural balance between the amount of water stored, and the amount ice melted. Yet, due to the raise of average temperature, it is difficult to store…
The contribution of riverine inputs increase accretion and bulk density, benefit the coastal plant communities and welcome the freshwater buffering the intrusion of saltwater which helps to remove some toxic chemicals. Besides, the deltaic lobe cycle cooperates with waves and currents transporting sand to make barriers fragment…
La Nina is a climatic pattern that distinguishes the cooling of sea surface temperature along the tropical coast of South America. La-Nina is described as the opposite to El-Niño which distinguished by warm sea surface temperature in the equatorial region of the Pacific ocean. The Southern Oscillation (SO) is a change in air pressure between the western and central tropical Pacific. The pressure variability changes the strength of the trade winds, that results in affecting the surface ocean…
via the ballast water of the ships and the Caspian Sea via the ballast water of oil tankers. Once the Comb Jelly settled in the Black Sea, it then spread to the seas of Azov, Marmara, the Aegean and the eastern Mediterranean, inhabiting water of salinities ranging from 30% to 39%. The temperature they live in is 4 degrees Celsius in the winter and 31 degrees Celsius in the summer. There are many fascinating things about the Comb Jelly; one of them is their reproduction/life cycle. The…
The 'Wingate Cycle Ergometer Test' is an anaerobic test that is performed on a cycle ergometer. Eg. Monark. (Vandewalle et al. 1987). The aim of our test is to measure Peak Power Output(PPO), Relative Peak Power Output(RPP), Fatigue Index(FI) and Anaerobic Capacity(AC) throughout the Wingate Anaerobic Test. For both our participants we will compare our findings and provide an explanation for the similarities/differences we encounter between the two. Peak Power Output is the highest power output…
differ in habitat preferences are the canvasback (Aythya valisineria) and the mallard (Anas platyrhyncos). The canvasback is classified in the tribe Aythyini, or pochards (Bellrose 1976). These ducks prefer habitats that range from shallow to deep water. They are differentiated from dabbling ducks in feet placement near…
DNAPLs are chemicals denser than water, which do not typically dissolve into water. These toxic chemicals seep through the soil and find ways into groundwater depending on the physical chemistry of the substance(s). When the dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) have entered the groundwater they will continue to flow with it as a result of the hydrological cycle. There is no absolute way of knowing where the source of the DNAPLs is located, or if any bodies of water are contaminated even…
stirring. The blends were mixed thoroughly using magnetic stirrer and to it add dropwise double distilled water with continuous stirring around 10 min. compositions of ARP microemulsion shows in Table 1. 4. Preparation of Arp Solution The ARP solution (AS) meant for comparative evaluation of ME-based systems was prepared by dissolving ARP (150 mg) in a mixture of 8 mL polyethylene glycol, 1 mL water and 1mL ethanol (95%, vol/vol) resulting in a solution of…
some drugs or because of Albumin, Anti Acid, Iron, Magnesium or deficiency of vitamin D, causes dysfunction of the ATP energy, neurological disorders, skeletal disorders, blood and kidney disorders. Uses: Beside importance of phosphorus in life cycle, phosphorus and its components are used in industry. Uses of phosphorus are as follow: - In medicine: - as phosphorus supplements for patients with kidney disease - healing bone fracture and curing vitamin D deficiency with…
Ocean Acidification, a process where the pH of ocean decreases as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) concentration increases in the water from the atmosphere. Since industrial revolution, the concentration of CO2 has dramatically increased in our atmosphere due to the burnings of fossil fuels, deforestations, and many more actions that humans take to make our lives luxurious. About 30% of CO2 from the atmosphere is absorbed by the oceans, making marine life’s survival uncertain. It has huge impact in the…
