The block quotation that was chosen and was compressed in the film which and should have been more highlighted is the line, “As the price of whale oil continued to rise, while the economy of the other countries continued to suffer due to economic depression, Nantucket ...

Eutrophication is the phenomenon caused by the increasing amount of nutrients in the water bodies which results to the decrease in the oxygen concentration and death of aquatic animals. The main nutrient which commonly caused eutrophication in some of the water bodies is the phosphates. In this process, nutrients from soil are carried to the water bodies through erosion (Chislock et al., 2013). The high amounts of nutrients in the water bodies results to the increase in aquatic plants and algae such as the phytoplankton. The decay of these plants and algae converts oxygen to other by-products resulting to ...

Introduction

An ecosystem is defined as the interaction of the organism and other nonliving factors in a certain community. The living components of an ecosystem, such as plants, animals, and other organisms, can be classified as the biotic component of the ecosystem, whereas the environmental conditions such as water amount, humidity, soil nourishment, temperature, and the like are termed as the abiotic factors. In an ecosystem, both the existing biotic and abiotic factors determine what kind of species live there. For example, turtles, which require a large amount of water to live in cannot possibly hope to survive in arid ...

Abstract

The Chinook or king salmon is a high-value seafood choice given its fat content and nutritional value. The global shift to healthy diets and sustainable food sources has increased the worldwide demand for the king salmon significantly. Increased harvesting of this species has led to declining populations that threaten sustainability. Farmed Chinook, particularly from New Zealand, has helped in meeting the high demand while preserving the wild Chinook. Although policies, rules, and regulations are effective means of ensuring that the king salmon is not overharvested, and its habitats are well conserved, there is a need for consumer awareness to ...

Abstract

The eastern mosquitofish, Gambusia holbrooki, is a globally distributed species of viviparous freshwater fish, found in tropical and temperate climates. It is considered an invasive species on several continents, including Australia, and it may threaten the survival of certain critically endangered native species throughout the world. It is of great interest to ecosystem conservation to monitor and control their populations. To gain a better understanding of this non-native species’ life history with potential implications of other species, we used passive-capture methods to obtain a 365-specimen sample from a campus pond. The lengths of the specimens were used to estimate ...

It is claimed by the scholars that the ocean temperatures are affected by the climate change. In addition, there is a set of other effects of the climate change for the marine organisms - such as changes in the ocean chemistry, supply of nutrients, systems of wind and food chains. These factors make their impact on the abundance, distribution, breeding cycles as well as migrations of marine animals and plants. With the increase of the temperature, the animal and plants, which inhabit the ocean and seas, shift towards the poles. In such manner, the marine food webs are changed ...

In the neoclassical period, two of the most prominent artists were Jean-Baptiste Greuze and Giovanni Francesco Barbieri. One of the works of the Jean-Baptiste was an oil painting entitled “Broken Eggs”. This painting was exhibited in the Paris Salon, ...
