All the shipments including fresh produce, express packages among others require an extensive system comprising millions of vehicles supported by sophisticated information technology and managed by a big labor force. The USA is the largest consumer market in the world thus a need for a robust system to oversee the movement ...

Effect of climate Change on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR)

Rising sea temperatures: Empirical evidence shows that the rising temperatures caused by climatic changes have a ripple impact on the GBR due to the interdependence between algae found on the coral reef tissue and sea animals that feed on it (GBR Marine Park Authority, 2011). More importantly, rising temperatures stress coral reefs because they are highly responsive to fluctuating temperatures; in particular, if sea temperatures remain higher than usual overtime due to climate change, algae that depend on corals for food may escape the tissue. The effect of algae leaving the tissue is manifested when the corals change color ...

738 Words The Pulitzer-winning photograph “Old Glory Goes Up On Mt. Suribachi” was taken by Joe Rosenthal in 1945 – an employee of the Associated Press. Considered to be the greatest war photograph taken in U.S Marine history, the location of the photograph is at the Briscoe Center for American History which is in Austin, Texas (“Collections Military History”). Rosenthal's picture serves as an artistic response to war because it portrays the gallantry of the U.S Marines in what has been considered the bloodiest battle in Marine Corps history on the island on Iwo Jima. If anything, this photograph is ...

Deepwater Horizon disaster is the largest marine oil spill in the history. The oil spill resulted in hazardous chemicals in the seawater and killed thousands of marine creatures. The oil spill occurred in the Gulf of Mexico region on 20 April 2010 due to Deepwater Horizon rig that was operated by Transocean and leased by British Petroleum. In response to the oil Deepwater Horizon oil spill, British Petroleum took actions to overcome the after effects of the disaster and made further changes in the code of conduct to avoid oil spills in future. Veil, Sellnow and Wickline (2013) criticize ...

Rising sea temperatures

Rising sea temperatures are disturbing the ecosystem of the Great Barrier Reef, and if it continues, it will cause major disturbances in the coastal region. Temperature regulates the distribution and the variety of the marine life species, and it also maintains the growth of the coral reef. Over the years, these have grown and evolved with time. When a certain limit of the temperature is exceeded, it can cause the tiny algae inside to be expelled out which causes the coloration of the corals to change. The corals die because of this as they suffer from a lack of ...

Marine trophic cascade is an ecological concept that has attracted a lot of attention in the recent days owing to the increase in overexploitation of marine resources. It is paramount that we gain clear understanding of the impacts brought about by the changes in the food web. Other possible causes include the environmental changes brought about by the climatic changes such as the global warming effects. Recent studies have shown an increase in the overexploitation of the marine top predators that has the potential to initiate a marine trophic cascade. Various scholars have studied the subject and accumulated reports ...

Defining the Coastal Environments in Tourism Industry

Tourism is one of rapidly developing industries in the global scales. Additional emphasis in this case should be put on the marine and coastal tourism - as two of the most popular options for spending the time and relaxation (Hewawasam, 2002, p. 2). At the same time, even while, taking into account general awareness among the scholars., pertaining to importance of tourism both in environmental and economic contexts, insignificant attention is paid by them to these two contexts of tourism (Sunlu, 2003, p. 263-270) The core need for additional attention to this sector is caused by insignificant understanding of ...

Human industrial activities, production, and by-products of globalization as a result of human development provide negative local and global impact on the marine environment. Thus, human-generated materials interact with the marine environment, they include persistent organic pollutants, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, brominated flame-retardants, organometals, and numerous pesticides (Crain, 2009, 40). Globally, they negatively impact the coastal marine environment; industrialization results in pollution from toxins or fertilizers, overharvesting, and disease. Unfortunately, habitat loss entails the complete removal of the ecosystem and its services (Crain, 2009, 40). On the other hand, the conversion of a system to a different habitat type will ...

My story is based on the life of my 65-year-old neighbor. For two decades we have lived together in the neighborhood. His charming voice and endless jokes kept me close to him. Being a former marine, he would share the different stories of the missions he attended during his at service. After his retirement in the early 1990s, he relocated to Arizona from California. The only strange thing in his life was the loneliness he was comfortable living alone. I assumed this is because of the side effects he encountered as a soldier, therefore, keeping his life personal and ...

Introduction

After conducting an analysis and assessment of corresponding scientific literature and recent updates in the news, it is possible to make a statement that the concern of sustainability and environmental protection is a rather urgent one on the international scales. At the same time, insignificant attention has been paid to the effect, made by the planned events on both built and natural environment. For instance, such events usually involve creation of the new infrastructure in the locations, which may be referred as environmentally-sensitive ones. In such cases, there is a need of transporting ...

The common resources are natural and cultural resources, and they include air, water, ocean and habitable earth. These common resources are accessible to all society members. The resources are not privately owned but instead are held in common. Due to a tragedy of commons, individual users of the shared resources act independently as directed by their self-interest and deplete the resources by behaving contrary to the shared resources. For instance, oceans as common resources are usually subjected to overexploitation and abuse since it is not private property. Since the competition of fisheries is high, the fishing firms demonstrate predatory ...

Description: The court case deals with a dispute over an easement given on a car park's property. At the time of the trial, the respondent had been attempting to limit the amount of time that the easement was allowed to be used while a tavern owner contended that the patrons of their business would be unable to take full advantage of the area during important hours. The limitation of five hours on the parking area’s use would profoundly limit the access that their customers have to parking. The rights of the easement as expressed by the grantee have ...

“The Few. The Proud. The Marines.” This is a well-known, long standing slogan for the Marine Corps military recruiting campaign; originations dating back to 1799 (Szoldra, 2015). This slogan wishes to draw attention to the promise of creating one with an elite social status. Through many centuries of recruiting, and many slogan trials, this slogan has stood the test of time and creates familiarity by mere existence. Now consider the latest slogan being launched by the US Marine Corps, “Toward the Sound of Chaos” (Dao, 2012). The marketing method unfolds by focusing on something that is found in endless ...

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 ...

Executive Summary

Ecosystem-based management (EBM) is a place-based way to utilization of natural resources with the aim of protecting and restoring the energy, flexibility and activity of the entire ecological environment to benefit its inhabitants. EBM is a great tool to preserve the environment in a better way that will not destroy the economy and humans. Movements of traditional environment have improved the ecosystem at the expense of economy, which has been viewed as a failure. People cannot continue repeating the same mistakes again. This is where EBM approach comes in where the ecosystem would be protected while at the same ...

Background

There have been numerous conspiracy theories offered in lieu of explanations surrounding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy (JFK) in 1963(“John F. Kennedy: Assassination or Conspiracy, n.d.”). In addition, details about the assassination have been uncertain for the last 40 plus years due to the fact that many of the tapes with information and evidence have been tampered with, and so many legal experts and scholars, and historians have refuted a lot of the information published on the case and deem them unreliable (“John F. Kennedy: Assassination or Conspiracy, n.d.”). In addition, due to the irregularities and ...

Introduction

Climate change is among the significant factors impacting ecological diversity on a worldwide scale. The growth of industries and the increasing human population globally have resulted in a rise in the volume of greenhouse gasses, which scientists have argued are the greatest contributors to the menace.

Abstract

Rape in the United States military has historically been viewed as a myth that did not need to be addressed. This way of thinking is the result of the viewpoints of a rape culture. These viewpoints work to legitimize the violence to remove all blame from the attacker, which makes the violence strategic and intentional. It has been noted the main reason intra-military is underreported is, the fact the attacker usually holds a higher level of superiority. This reality results in, the victim needing to report the event with their attacker. It has been reported by the Marine Corps, ...

Improved scientific understanding in recent years has shown that humans are the major causes of climate change on the planet. A report released by IPCC (the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) in 2014 reports that it is “extremely likely” that the dominant cause of global warming in the 20th Century is the influence of humans. Human activities over the last two hundred years, since the beginning of industrialization, have caused a building up of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and as a result, the Greenhouse Effect (a natural phenomenon which regulates the temperature of the earth) has increased ...

Cruise ships are used to take vacationers on recreational voyages. The ships provide amenities that enhance the passengers experience such as lounging facilities, cinemas, indoor sports, swimming pools, and music concerts among others. Cruise ships usually take the vacationers on a round trip through a given number of destinations, which usually include a number of coastal downs, before returning them to the port of origin. The cruise industry started in the early 1970s and was widely embraced in 1971 as a viable tourist attraction when a ship known as the Pacific Princess was featured in ...

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 ...

Introduction

Over the course of the last few decades, global pollution has overwhelmingly been on the rise. As years go by - the humans' way of thinking evolves. Hence, the technological aspect of life keeps on advancing rapidly at the expense of contaminating our planet. Similar to other elements associated with human life, the natural environment is also undergoing a continuous change. There is the unchallengeable need of developing knowledge of the issues that characterize this change. The modern world is experiencing an increase in the natural calamities and varying weather patterns. These changes are primarily associated with the environmental ...

The majority of scientists are in agreement that global warming is occurring and is caused by human activities over the last two hundred years or so. Global warming is caused by the build up in the atmosphere of gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and others which have been created by the burning of fossil fuels in order to produce electricity, and for use in industries and motor vehicles. Another contribution to global is the removal of vast areas of natural forest from the planet. . The majority of carbon dioxide exchange between the atmosphere and the earth ...

Literature review

In the history of the construction of sea structures in oil exploration, load and corrosion together with how those structures will be maintained have always posed a scientific nightmare. Chamberlain, Adam and other authors in a scientific journal illustrate that for a good design of an onshore structure, there should be a right proportion of the ingredients in order for the structure to give maximum life service. They all agreed that in order to achieve this, keen interest should be paid to the permeability, strength, and durability of the mixture. Finally, they added that for effective control of corrosion, ...

The problem

Living things cannot thrive alone but depend on each other for survival. Organisms (human beings, plants, and animals) must maintain a balance of nature to enable them to survive in different environments. However, some issues arise that cause environmental imbalance problems and affect the relationship between these organisms. Sharma defines environmental pollution as any adverse change in the chemical, biological, and physical characteristic of land, water, or air (Sharma 1). Environmental pollution is a major imbalance that greatly affects lives of these organisms. The problem of environmental pollution continues to raise many concerns in the world today. The rapid ...

Abstract

Mermaids have remained the creatures of mythology for quite some time now, and they are also being featured in many of the present day movies and TV shows apart from the children’s cartoons. That is all well for we know that these media are a work of fiction, but shockingly enough, the subject has very recently come up but this time, the classification has not remained in the genre of fiction. Today people are asking if mermaids could actually exist or if the myths had come out of a few very overactive imaginations. The controversial issue has become ...

Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt is widely regarded as one of the best presidents in United States history. He is known for his cowboy persona and his widespread representations of traditional masculinity. Many Americans today remember him as a rope-swinging, outdoorsman who would not be content sitting inside the Oval office. In fact, he was once observed jumping off a horse into a pit of wild dogs and slaying a mountain lion. Roosevelt changed the course of the presidency and did many things that presidents had never done before, such as riding in a submarine, being identified by his initials, being ...
