The 100 m by 100 m pixel size is a conservative 'focal zone' of porphyry pluton emplacement and area of porphyry copper occurrence. Using this pixel size, the total number of pixels for Benguet province is 259,591 or equivalent to 2,595.91 square kilometers. SPATIAL PREDICTIVE MODEL ...
By 20,000 years ago, the Earth reached it’s minimal CO2 level of about 200ppm, this level only C4 plants could really do well and these are the minority of species today. C4 plants can tolerate levels down to about 150ppm though their growth at that rate is greatly reduced, C3 plants...
