1 Land Subsidence: Causes‚ Detection‚ and the Wilmington Oil Field‚ Long Beach Land subsidence is a major predicament in many areas of the United State and occurs for many reasons. Land subsidence is the gradual settling or sudden sinking of the Earth’s surface owing to subsurface movement of earth materials‚ usually with little or no horizontal movement (Galloway et al.). Subsidence hazards involve either the sudden collapse of the ground to form a depression or the slow subsidence or compaction

What would be the cost benefit to society for the early detection and treatment of diseases? Benjamin Franklin once said‚ “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”. In today’s society‚ that statement is very true. Millions of dollars are spent in the treatment of diseases. It is definitely more cost effective to do annual screenings and testing than it is to treat a disease that has already manifested. Once a person has the disease‚ it becomes very costly.

Manila has risen to 1‚447 as of February 2008 (Entis‚ 2008). Some of these contaminations are caused by Salmonella spp.‚ a member of the family Enterobacteriacea‚ a fairly common cause of food poisoning (Burton and Engelkirk‚ 2004). Early detection of the presence of Salmonella in food products is determined to protect the consumers from contaminated products that may lead to food poisoning. There is really a need to rapidly detect microbes to maintain food safety (Ramirez‚ 2000).
