the countries in the region had strategic incentives to develop a transparent domestic shale industry in order to reduce its reliance on gas from Russia. Nevertheless, political and social factors as well as differences
rocks from the mantle can spew through openings in rifts and volcanoes to change the face of the earth's surface. Geologists use satellite imagery, echo soundings, and seismology to
erosion, and water management, have shown how human activity has threatened our planet’s ability to support life. The work of geologists has not only exposed these problems, but can offer tools to remediate them. For instance, geologists work to project the impact of floods on land...
It has been argued that during its industrial period humankind has produced so much raw materials from the geosphere and transferred them into the technosphere—as atoms do not disappear—that humankind could live solely off secondary raw materials. This, however, is a fallacy even for metals with...
that contribute to the construction or the feeding of a model is ten times superior at least: in order to know “what to put in the box”, it is necessary to use previously published work from many physicists, chemists, biologists, geologists, oceanographists, aerologists, gla...
A Lizard in a Woman's Skin (1971) A young woman is accused of murdering her debauched neighbor after dreaming it. Was she set up, or did she really do it? Ghost Team One (2013) Two roommates deathly afraid of ghosts both fall in love with a girl who believes their home is haunted...
professional or amateur readership. A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional geologists coming together nationally within one or two specific societies, whereas the amateurs have tended either to remain in local societies or to come together nationally in a different way....
Recently, geologists working in this part of Siberia have found and documented numerous masses of part-combusted coal entrapped in the lavas (Elkins-Tanton et al. 2020; fig. 2). In the same district are abundant mineral deposits formed in large pipes of shattered rock as the boiling waters ...
Cephalopods—the group of animals that includes octopus, squid, and cuttlefish—are well known for their incredible color-changing abilities. But these tentacled weirdos have also played a vital role in our evolving understanding of the human nervous sys
Aeration in an activated sludge process is based on pumping air into a tank, whichpromotes the microbial growth in the wastewater. The microbes feed on the organic material, forming flocks which can easily settle out. How do I calculate the volume of an aeration tank?
