A life-cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA) was performed to evaluate the environmental and economic impacts of several common site investigation methods. The potential impacts of these methods were computed to provide normalized metrics for the mobilization, drilling, sampling and (or) testing, and...
2014). The growth of earthworm's biomass was 0.12 g L−1 packing.day (Zhao et al. 2010). The size of the population of earthworms needed to be maintained constant throughout the exploration period, leading to the need to subtract some individuals. These are assumed to be released back ...
Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) is described as a holistic, cradle-to-grave technique of analysing the environmental loadings of a product, process or activity over its entire life cycle. From: Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2001 About this pageAdd to MendeleySet alert ...
Life Cycle of the Ascaris Lumbricoides from Chapter 2 / Lesson 22 37K The parasitic nematode species, or worm, called Ascaris lumbricoides reach adulthood in less than three months and can live for up to two years, often inside of human hosts. Learn more about the lifecycle of Ascaris lum...
Wait a minute: what’s that earthworm doing at the end of a beetle trackway? (Photo by Anthony Martin, taken at Wormsloe Historic Site.) That’s when I realized there were no tracks on either side of the groove. This was a trail made by a legless animal. “Wait a minute, this ...
I predicted these were wasp burrows, and after watching several flying around the dunes, landing, walking up to and entering the holes, digging energetically, and emerging (repeat cycle), this was all of the evidence I needed. The wasps were some species ofStictia(sometimes nicknamed“horse-gu...
