- Abstract Description and Proposal of Project.
This project is based on the structural and compositional dynamics of a local forest. The type of forest that is used for this research is Oak-Hickory. A local forester invited our group to conduct a Continuous Forest Inventory (CFI) in the forest. The process involved the setting up of Continuous Forest Inventory plots in this forest. A total of three fifth-acres CFI plots were set of up. The process of setting up these plots involved the random selection of a site within the forest and the identification of a plot center.

I started off my research by doing a random search on the internet because I wanted to have a wide view and research on the topic. But it was not at all easy because I did not have a direct lead to the subject because I had to go through books, journals and blogs in order to decipher what was directly related to my subject. This kind of research narrative is open ended and would be better if it was narrowed down to a specific topic or entry.

Phylogenetic family tree is characterized by the lineage through which the present man originated from. The origin of the humans emanated from a single common ancestor through a transition process that culminated into the present man. The tree starts with a common ancestor then branches of to different species as time passed by. The phylogenetic family tree takes the form of evolution where there is a common shared ancestor. The report explores the sequence of events that led to the existence of the modern man (Futuyma 84).
The human evolution forms the basis of origination of all human beings on earth. The ...

A sandstorm is characterized as one that whips up extraordinary loads of sand into the air, forming a dense cloud above the ground in the process. While most of the sand will rise higher than 50 cm, some sand particles can even ascend to the height of 2 meters. According to Wikipedia, the average diameter of the particles carried by such dust storm winds will vary between 0.15 and 0.30 mm. Wind speeds such during sandstorms have been recorded at up to 16 km per hour and more, while most storms continue to blow for between three hours to ...

Introduction

Even though the concept of evolution is a typical narrative, it remains one of the most highly contentious of the topics. Major disagreements persist in the field, particularly when the evolutionary origin and physical modification of primates are the subject matter of discussion. Because of these differences, lots of significant finds in the field have attracted considerable amounts of opposition from experts depending on the species, or the side angle of evolution one recognizes (Ravosa and Dagosto). Disputes often center around locomotion and posture – whether a particular species was fully upright or could walk bipedally, brain size (intelligence), sexuality ...

Executive Summary

This process of making 17 reams release 100 pounds of Carbon dioxide in the environment. Forests and trees are mainly responsible for maintaining a stable environment of the world. Going paperless will help reduce the total waste that disturbs the natural environment. Trees are naturally responsible for absorbing carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis. The amount of paper recycled is proportional to the amount of tree saved. The increased usage of recycled paper will help decrease the demand for virgin paper. Decrease in the demand of virgin paper will automatically help reduce the air and water pollution. The paper ...

This movement caused social and economic change in the society in the 1960’s (when it was first started) and had effects whose fruits we reap even today. This movement can ...

Dr. Seuss emerged as a staunch opponent of isolationism in America in the late 1930s as well as early 1940s. He saw inaction in United Sates to German as well as Japanese expansion as appeasement and cowardice. While the world was in a war, America had isolated itself and just sat to look the other countries fight. Dr. Seuss felt the weakness and thought that Americans were leaving their victims exposed to Japanese and Nazi brutality. Again, just before the Pearl Harbor attack, Seuss used to depict isolationists together with appeasers as lazy, cowardly and unintelligent.

Introduction

Xmas tree scan is a port scanner software application based technique that is designed and used for detecting open ports for a server or host. Opel (2010) argued that, “Xmas tree scan exploits a subtle loophole in the TCP RFC to differentiate between open and closed ports.” This is accomplished by manipulating the TCP header bits to invoke a response from a remote server or host. If a port is open, an out of state flag segment sent to the TCP port will be discarded while a closed port will return a RST frame response.
The Xmas tree scan has such advantages as: It has high ...

Abstract

Oxidation is a common problem in olive oil due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acid, this leads to nutritional losses and quality degradation, especially under microwave heating. A number of studies have been done to add natural antioxidants to reduce oxidation. This project examines the possible application of olive leaves to reduce or inhibit olive oil oxidation under microwave heating. Olive leaves were able to increase the total polyphenol content as well as reducing the peroxide value in olive oil. However, the microwave heating caused severe quality degradation (increasing peroxide value and reducing total polyphenol) especially after 10 ...

Organized religion and environmental/ecological consciousness are not always mutually inclusive, despite the belief among religions that the earth and its bounty are gifts from God. While some Christian denominations believe action should be taken on global warming, there is a lack of consensus concerning the severity of the threat it poses, reflecting a subjectivity that prevails among Protestant faiths. For some, the declining state of the environment is simply a manifestation of God’s will, an inexorable and predestined chain of events. Other religious traditions take a more anthropomorphic view of the environmental crisis, which is seen as a genuine man-made threat to the ...
